I don't think you're immoral...lol.. i've tried wooters and i personally have no problem with it. I use a similiar tool myself simply for a reminder alarm that the product is selling out.

I have an issue with someone having the ability to be away from their computers during a woot-off and still manage to win their crap.

From what i've read in my digital travels... this seems to have been disabled. this does not mean it doesn't still happen... just the particular method i researched is no longer functional.

the creators of these things (and their PAYING subscribers) complain that it is woot themselves that is causing them grief... kudos woot. keep it up... move things around, hide links, whatever...


Nothing follows.

Your quality post was this one:

DennisG2010 wrote:OIC - I actually spotted the (blatant) clue in the GPS description.

"You could spend a sad hour watching this Woot-Off killer, or a Happy Hour full of terrific deals with our Woot Twitter feed."

Second I read that I loaded woot.com/happyhour.



Resulting in this woot headline:

■(7:47 PM, 4/28/2010) DennisG2010 actually read a product description and it paid off.


Nothing follows.

Thanks Tater - for this and for the approval of my use of wooters.us...

I actually managed to find the post myself, too...
Took some legwork of going through my posts and checking the I like to smell my armpits of the thread for the list of Q Ps.
Is this what you did, or is there an easier way?

Also, I wonder if ircmaxell understands that it's not a fully automated beOsee buyer, and if he would still find it immoral...

Actually, I find his promotion of his own tracker in his sig kind of annoying - but that's just me.

the filters kill me... last night I apparently asked someone if they were a b%$ch because I didn't realize melon was the current replacement... lol.

I found your post the same way you did... havent found a different way.

I tried to go back and actually say "melon" instead of the real word, but it had been deleted. That was awesome... "are you calling me a melon?" and I was going to reply "why yes, I DID call you a melon!" but that was killed by woot!

It would make more sense if it was just "first!" because of all those people who are...spoons.

yeah, I see what I did there.

I wanted one of these so bad, but decided to hold off because I scored a Bowl of Cereal. Maybe one will come in the box(es).

Scored my second Big ol' Cornucopia during the Wootoff on 12/1/10.
Finally scored a Bountiful Overflowing Cornucopia - During the Happy Hour during the Wootoff! on 4/28/10

So, for us that got the Happy Hour Book of Crap. Where do we post about our package weights and post about our goodies when they arrive, since Happy Hour items don't have their own forum?

So for the record, the eastern time zone really stinks for a hard core wooter. Second, it doubly stinks for the hard core wooter who has to get up at 5:15 (yes that's a.m.). And finally for the monkey collector it's just plain cruel. So I guess what I'm trying to say is if anyone bought an extra monkey or two and is having buyers remorse, please PM me. I just can't stand the thought of buying one off e-bay from the gouger who has it posted for $15. That's just not the wooter way! My almost complete collection (minus the red and camo capes) are missing their newly found brother. Oh and I have stuff for trade from previous BOCs if you're interested. Thanks.

What time did these guys go up? I think I logged off at 12:30 (est) and when I got up the next morning was shocked to see I'd missed monkeys! I don't have anywhere near all of them, but it's certainly become an obsession..

(missed the jumbo monkey on happy hour last week as well, but I'm assuming it was red like the woot off one hanging next to me)
