finally, my first crappy...

How the F did you people get it? I clicked the button the instant it showed up on wooters.us and got to the info page, clicked the "info is correct" button, chugged away for a couple min, then refreshed to say "Item sold out"

watching the films I couldn't have done it any faster!

Oh well, didn't get one this time...I thought I was pretty quick to the "I Want One" button. I got to the "Info is Correct" button, hit it and after 7 minutes or so got a "Item is sold out"

Congrats to all who got them!

getting Boggy Old Creature has become impossible for me, so many wasted hrs waiting for this, could not have been on the button any faster....I give up WOOT!

Finally! Can't wait for grand unboxing.

Got my fist Boggy Old Creature!

Actually it is only 1500 that they usually sell. The SSOC was a special with 3000 being sold. Back in the day before the forced purchase of 3 I believe the quantity was at 4500 which would make sense to the quantity that you see now.

Dang, I thought I had my first baby of the cosmos purchased with my iPod Touch. Got everything submitted but said they were sold out and in line if someone cancels. Dang meeting.

Yes! My 4th Boggy Old Creature. But the first since 2007.

i got my first batch of cookies!!! words cannot describe!!!!

Ok, so I got the Random scaffolding page...I clicked Buy One, slowly I turned, step by step, got to the order info page, entered my cvv code, slowly I turned, step by step, (I even had time to get out my credit card and verify the code while waiting on the page to load), Clicked the stupidly large gold button, Slowly I turned, step by step, and FINALLY!...I was redirected to the order info page and asked to re-enter my info, as if I had made a mistake... So I entered the exact same number in again for cvv, and of course, by then, it was sold out.

That is the worst kind of denial imaginable...as if somebody at woot! headquarters said, No firing Rocket Number 9 way this guy's getting two Boggy Old Creature's in a row, even if he's only ever had one before.

Wow.

First time Woot Off, first time Boggy Old Creature.

The adrenaline is still flowing.

I had it ask me for my Woot password 3 times and every time I put my password in and it would wait a few minutes and then seem to reset itself and ask again. It never really took it although I don't know that for sure but I'm not getting my hopes up.

I must say, this has been positively insane.

I got my first boggy old creature today!

Got to the order page, filled in my info. clicked submit and the large yellow on the second page. Got redirected to order page to fix highlighted info. No info highlighted. Resubmitted. Sold out.

Oh well.

No they don't! They only do that when a Barbie on Crack is the item for the day.

Finally! Can't wait for the grand unboxing ceremony.

As Big Jim McBob and Billy Sol Hurok would say, WHOOOOOOOOO BOY did that server blow up good, dinnit?

Yes Woot please do this!

bmxjimp wrote:"You are in line."

hear, hear.

Only took two and a half years of trying, but i finally got one. Sure hope it's extra crappy!

Got to ridiculously large gold button and servers crashed on me. I guess I have to be content to continue to roll in the bountiful harvest that was my Christmas Sack o' scat

So I had all the correct info put in, but after submitting the "all info is correct" button, it sends me an error showing I needed to input my name. watching the films My name was there, has this happened to any of you?

BTW PUT IN A CAPTCHA WOOT!

Don't lie! It's all about the sex for you. Watch out for second base.








If you don't get my reference you REALLY need to start watching Better Off Ted.

well I'm in line, but that prolly means no baby of the cosmos for me. still 0-fer

Hopefully this is just a glitch and I actually got one!

Happened also to a guy I work with. He didn't get an confirmation email either!

I got the same error code ("buttafuoco") as many of you. What's so frustrating is that I got it about ten times as I kept trying to check my info and even changed the address once. I clicked and it came back right away with "buttafuoco" every time.

Mike

My birthday is tomorrow and now I am 4 for 4 on Boggy Old Creature

This is what I get for answering the phone. THANKS A LOT, WORK!

I got a message that I am IN LINE.... how long does it take until I find out if I actually get one!?! Or is it already hopeless?

I was robbed. I clicked the big gold button, and the thing just went poof.

Thanks woot, you suck.

Thanks to you, I have nightmares of bags filled with scaffolding taunting me while servers all around me crash and websites stop responding.

I laughed I cried, It was the best of times, it was the worst woot off ever. After 9 consecutive woot offs and the Christmas Boggy Old Creature, I finally got my first. I'd like to thank my mom, my dad, my agent, the academy and all the little swarthy people that made this possible. Without your disgruntled comments on you inability to obtain said Boggy Old Creature, it just wouldn't be as sweet. For those of you with a glimmer in your eye and a dream in your heart, keep reaching. Im living proof that a Boggy Old Creature is possible without a bot. To Mike Crawley, who's in the office next door and stepped out to fix his flat tire after two days of watching and waiting, suck it loser. To Jacob Schwegal, who turned me onto woot, suck it loser. To Scott Jones, whose in bed sick, suck it loser.

I love you all and Godspeed.

Same here. Then I got "This order is sold out."

No they wont. They used to sell 4500 when they buy 1, 2 or 3 for $1 each. Now its 1500 at $3 (automatically a 'buy 3' for everyone that gets in).

OK, I'm newer to Woot. What's in the Barnacles Or Clams bag anyway?

Thank you Woot! This is always so much Fun!

I made sure to put in my CVV code and everything. Still didn't work. I demand an investigation! I even got to click the enormously large button.

Same for me. I had everything filled out correctly (CC info and security code) and clicked the large yellow button and got a 'you made an error" message. Definitely not fair.

You'd think that with all the money that Woot is raking in, we're talking butt-loads of money here, that 2 things would happen.

• There would be more than a few Bags of scaffolding sitting around
  
• They could afford to upgrade their server so that a 2 second consumer feeding frenzy does not wipe out there entire network.
