Nope. The BOTS won this one.

With a gentle sigh of relief I see a boggy old creature arise in my purchase register. Somehow I now have reached the pinnacle of life's meaning and can finish the woot-off with an aura of success.

My love/hate relationship will continue with Woot! for now. I've finally scored my SECOND Bee oh see. No bots, paying attention and apparently clicking just right. Lucky I suppose! YayBOC!

Anyone care to explain what "code: buttafuoco" means, and why it stole my Blind Ocelot Captain?



I'm aware of who Joey is, but I doubt he had anything to do with this.

Took 10 minutes, but my order finally went through. Watch, I'll get three HDMI cables now that I bought three on the previous woot.

Yippeeeeeeee, a bag o scaffolding for meeeeee! Wow, must say, this was the easiest ever! Think I've only gotten one previously, quite some time ago, and had pretty well given up hope since the Wootalyzer seems to not be functioning properly for this Woot-off (and at Boggy Old Creature time last Woot-off, too!). Thank you, Woot AND Wootalyzer :0)

So frustrating. I've been at this for 5 years (lol) ... finally got to click on "I Want One" and then the system crashed.

Oh well ... there's always NEXT TIME ...

WOOOHOOO!
I just got my 4th Boggy Old Creature!

For the past few Woot Offs I managed to always get my order in but always end up on the waiting list! So happy to finally have an order that counts! Hooray for two weeks of excitement/anticipation!

Sorry to all the people who didn't get one! Good luck next time!

BOOOOOOOOOOOO! Bad woot! yeah right. Get some new servers already. Instant click and the wait is on your end. Makes perfect sense. I'll pass on the next one.

And to add injury to insult you put up another crappy...bag! You puppies are seriously sick over there.

That's Bueller, Ferris Bueller

I was at my desk and tryed and tryed as soon as it popped and server crashed or something. I could Not get it to the Buy screen no matter what.
I am starting to believe that it is imposable.

Anyone think Woot purposely throttles back its servers to screw us all. Hit the button for the Burrito immediately after it came up and still got screwed.

I got to the point of just having to hit the final button, went as fast as i could, everything obviously pre-entered, and then... when i finally got the submission in, it was already sold out....

Precisely what I got hohdude.

Initial order page loaded relatively quickly, I entered my security code, hit the gold button, watched the green progress bar proceed agonizingly slowly, then watched the page reload without my security code in... watching the films.

I need your guys help...I don't think I got one, but I'm not sure!

I clicked "I want one"...I clicked "Buy It Now!" and I got taken to the "processing your order" page.

I watched the little clock spin in circles for a long time until I finally got a woot server error.

Am I correct in assuming I've failed?

I haven't gotten any confirmation emails..but I figured maybe that ties in with the servers being overloaded.
