Whoa, thanks badbrad! I'm totally amazed, but it actually worked for me! So how did you discover this magic URL? What have I missed?

It did work...I had to refresh the link like 5+ times but after getting the kids page a bunch, it took me to a level 8 order page. I ordered and got a confirm in my account and my bank already shows the charge. Keep pasting the link and trying it.

This is not MLG

Then why don't you also go sue every fair and amusement park in America for having skill games and other games of chance that the disabled can't play as well. While your at it you better put a stop to the evil soda machines that tease the handicapped with promises of a cold coca-cola, they also exclude people with disabilities from purchasing their product. It's April Fools day, lighten up and have some fun!

Stoopid 4/1 joke.

I'm just gonna go to the swap meet and buy me $8.00 dollars worth of crap! ($3 for woot, $5 for shipping).

This is driving me crazy...

Great made it through level 9 and the "Order your Big Orphaned Cetacea" just re-opens the site and runs the game. Not sure I'm going to keep trying, so that I can get a $2 purse, three rocks, and a used finger trap that someone won at an arcade. Thanks WOOT.

I tried about 20 times and link worked for me too!

I was wrong...

I had to try too many times to count...easily 50 times...but finally the link DID work.

Now we must wonder where the mystery link came from. And if it's a cheat can they tell we cheated and will we still get the stuff. Or, was the link itself the joke and you had to use that and not the game?

OK, I got a level 8 Big o' Cosmos. Can I buy a level 9 Big o' Cosmos if I beat that?

warp you all at woot

Again...last night when it was on lvl 3 crap...i beat lvl 3...i even beat lvl 4 and lvl 5...but it didn't do anything...thought the server broke...i come back back it's working...but now i have to try for lvl 8...this sucks

No, I posted it, I first discovered it while playing with the URLs.I have ordered using it, and so have atleast 3 others. Sorry if it doesnt work for you.

BTW, I do not work for, nor am affiliated with WOOT.

Woot has been too crowded recently anyway, won't hurt my feelings to see some whining fools go away. This game still sucks, but for everyone trying, if you would have gotten on at post time 12am CST you might have been able to get one. You didn't, if this game wasn't here you wouldn't have any shot, so take your chances or shut your pie hole.

It does work. It redirected me to the buy page, although it was still on kids.woot. I'm sitting in video media technology with Gary and Rodeo. We're bored. Right Gary. Yes, bored. (Says Gary)

The game is fairly difficult,eventually you get the hang of it. Just know that when it restarts to level one (after you beat level 4) that it is actually lvl 5 and so on, the game keeps track of it.

Figured I'd try it again since it was still up, but I keep getting dual objected and don't have the time to keep playing. Bummer.

Good luck crapshooters.

Same deal here! I first beat level 2 just after the deal went live, prompting me to to buy my Big Orphaned Cetacea....but alas, I didn't read the instructions well enough, and was not logged in - so #error! (as opposed to #winning!).

Played again....for 90 minutes....got to level 4, when Big o' Cosmos was paying out on level 3. But there was an error message preventing me from buying my crap!

Now I woke up late today, might lose my job. And I might blame woot. A.F. on that last point....everything else is true.

aaagggggggggggg where is the game. i know it means i fail epicly but someone tell me where it is?

the link worked for my friend...took a LOT of pasting the link about 20-30 times...

I think people are hacking the game lol There is now a level 666 and it seems everyone in the top 10 has a crazy amount of points. Some people even have like 1,569,325,416 pts for the first level? HOW HOW HOW??????

The link came from a woot employee obviously. It's part of today's April fools jokes and fits with the woot mentality. The real fools are playing the game over and over when retrying the link is easier.

Can I put that bag over my wife's head?

Awe....don't let the door hit you in the face and break you nose on the way out....

I think the link is authentic. I've got email confirmation about my purchase.

except for the fact that... YOU DON'T HAVE TO WIN THE GAME TO GET THE CRAP. Geeze people.

That link really works. It took about 40 refreshes, but it finally went through.

Okay woot I give I've been playing since midnight servers permitting you win this round. I'm gonna send my 8 dollars to Japan. At least I can beat their games. I'll be back next year. Okay tomorrow.

April fools People.

The random crap probably is crap! If you spend all day trying to beat the game and actually get to level 8 they will send you a brick or door handle.

I just...... I just don't know..... anymore.... what...... what's real.... who.... who are all of you......woot employees posing...... as people..... is this.... the real.... life.....is.... this.... fantasty?..... visions...... yellow buttons...... snails.... I ..... I... WHATDOESITALLMEAN
