So there were those who got the buttafuoco and did it through woot alone.

How many got the Baggie of Cthulhu while using something like wootalyzer? I saw one post saying he did.

Error code "buttafuoco" means you somehow put in your order before the crap went on sale - i.e. you used some sort of computer program *cough* wooters.us or wootalyzer *cough* that opened up the buy page for you too early.

Same thing happened a couple of craps ago. Don't cheat

How could this be true? I hit the refresh and ordered after the page showed- hardly cheating.

FAIL!! Could not connect to server.

Scored my 4th Baggie of Cthulhu in 5 years, weee!

Fingers crossed that it's some otterific stuff, they should top the portable DVD player I received from my Adventure Crap

I got the (code: buttafuoco) as well and I was right there when the Baggie of Cthulhu came up. Funny, I was able to purchase the next item with no problem whatsoever had I wished. What gives, Woot?

Scored with wootalyzer. No errors.

Of those who got the "Your order is invalid (code: buttafuoco)" message, did you have Wootalyzer (or some other program) pop up the page for you? I'm smelling something fishy here.

I was running wooters.us with autocrap... But that took a while so clicked on I want one and got sent to a google page hrm? oh well

Um, yeah, not so much. Got the tweet, 30 seconds later the page updated. See my pic if you don't believe me.

Read the thread -- there were plenty in every circumstance. PayPal, credit card, Chrome, Firefox, IE, Wooalyzer, Wooters.us, browser auto refresh, lucky guess, Twitter to SMS to woot.com....

P.S. Error code "buttafuoco" means you somehow put in your order before the crap went on sale - i.e. you used some sort of computer program *cough* wooters.us or wootalyzer *cough* that opened up the buy page for you too early.

I got this code by using plain old F5 and manually clicking the gold button. No Wootalyzer. That's too bad. I tried going back to the buy page but the Woot servers crashed... not happy that I was a "cheater" and didn't cheat.

Please add your Body Odor Checker to the tracker!

If you got buttafuoco'ed list how many Baggie of Cthulhu's you've ever gotten, your browser, how you were paying (CC vs PayPal), and whether you were on woot.com directly or on a tracker site

Ooops. Then I got Joey'd. Serves us right, I guess.

I was using my regular browser and ran into that error code the entire time.

Baggie of Cthulhu #6, and I placed the order from my Droid X! It seemed like it took forever, but the Verizon network came through for me.

I hit the "Buy Item" on Wootalyzer in a nano second without success. I only clicked once. Should I have double clicked????

out of the people who scored do you guys have a Twitter Account? wonder if that was a player in the butto error

Win

The longer woot waits to explain the code, the longer all of us are distracted from buying something they're offering at the moment.

I am not amused I was using the old fashioned way and got "buttafuoco" 5 times. I changed my credit card 3 times... which sadly had different addresses that I had to retype. I couldn't get pass the this info is correct.

I did manually copy paste the I want One link because the first two time around I clicked I want one, it just caused the front page to reload on me.

I don't think it is caused by any of the auto-payment pages, but I sure would like to be enlightened on what happened. I'd rather get a Server not found which I did several times prior to being able to click the I Want One.

Or...could it be that I temporarily time-traveled back a few miliseconds without knowing it when the bevel of crawdads popped up?

Yes I was also F5'ing it too, I didn't use any script or anything and got BF'd, I did get 1 the last wootoff so I can't really complain too much, but still denied for no real reason.

I got the code and only used firefox. No auto-buy page opening for me.

ugh, I bought the ladder earlier today - CC worked fine...

Then for the Baggie of Cthulhu, it said CC was invalid. easy come, easy go I guess

My first Woot-Off and my first chance at a Beautiful Ocean Cabana. Just signed up 12 days ago. Sadly, I kept getting page load errors until the next item showed up.

Oh well.

I was using both wooters.us and wootalyzer, but also had time to go the site manually and still got the same error.

Possible meaning of buttafucco'd: I entered Woot on my own without the wootalyzer. On the other hand, I was looking at deal.com in another window (which I had accessed through wootalyzer).

Darn it...Wootalyzer must have ticked off Woot and many of us are paying for it.

Add me to the list of the lucky crappers.

Baggie of Cthulhu is on it's way!!!

Thanks w00t.

Incorrect, "You got cut off." = Error code: bobbitt

btw woot gods, I'm not bitter about the crap I just really want to know what the error buttafuoco is all about, k thanks!

I used Wootalyzer and got a Baggie of Cthulhu no problem.

Got my first Bed of Crepes!

To those of you who've gotten these before...how long do they usually take to go out? If you get a "grand prize", does it usually ship out earlier?

Well I'm bummed that I got buttafuocoed, but congrats to the lucky ones that got bags!

What a day. Just siting here watching my timer so the coffee beans don't over-roast while catching up on some e-mail and, BAM, Baggie of Cthulhu. System locked up tighter than the cheeks of the straight guy when he realized he walked into the joyous bar. Waited and waited and things slowly moved along until, SURPRISE, I got Baggie of Cthulhu number 3. Maybe this bag will contain something I can use with my coffee. If everything works out, I will get my Baggie of Cthulhu at the same time I get todays order of 11 lbs. of green coffee beans. Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus.

Success woo hoo!!!! or should I say Woot Hoot? No I probably shouldn't say that.,

Finally - must be because they sold 2x as many as usual.

Or, perhaps it's a conspiracy!
