Jatravartid game! Make it hard, not impossible! Two obstacles at the exact same time is unbeatable. I like a good April Fools joke too Woot, but really?

Now that was weird! I just won, and when I went to check out, it said I was getting a 42" LCD HDTV for $3, and not a bag o' crap. I already have 3 TV's. Anyone want to trade?

I like the idea of the game, even if it sucks large, sweaty goat b@ll$. I loved Flying Spaghetti Monster. I didn't make it past level 3, but had a good time laughing my @$$ off on April Fool's Day. Thx.

Here are some tips: (non-troll)

1) Before starting, crash into the first thing you see to make sure your game is working properly. If you get a FIash error, try another browser or restart your computer. Better to find out now than after you finish the level.

2) It "seems" that you get fewer obstacles the more targets you hit. But prioritize living over shooting the crap (forget about the space bar when you have a double block incoming).

3) The double block will happen. If they are slightly off-sync, you can usually squeeze by at the last second. If they are completely on sync, the only way is to try to go-between them. This is difficult, but doable. I find that the "moving" obstacle is much more forgiving than the stationary one.

4) Note that the length of each level different. Level 2 is longer than level 1, level 3 is longer than level 2. Level 4 is very long. However, when the game prestiges to level 5 (read: playing level 1 again), the length resets back to its original value.

4.5) Turn off the music. Play something you like instead.

Best luck to all :/ I'm sorry it's a frustrating game (and experience for those at the doorbuster rush). The bright side is that it's still not sold out, and "botters" could not steal all the prizes.

I found a secret trick to playing the game that lets me win every time. While moving my snail around with one hand, instead of shooting crap with the other, I hold my middle finger up at the screen. I have died repeatedly to double blocks on level 1 / 2, but I feel better about it - so I win!

The game sucks and is lagggy... Most if the time they place 2 things in your way and you can only go up and down... Woot.com How i hate thee..

Tried at level 3 and got to 5 but it crashed.. just now pulled off a level 7, crap ordered, happy!

I know I'm not entitled to anything from anybody and I know that woot isn't obliged to provide the opportunity to get a Big o' Cosmos or anything else...BUT I seriously HATE woot right now. What the fudge? Get your stuff together and I'll be back.

Make your kids play it. It's like Ender's Game. They've trained their whole life for this!

I don't get it. I click on I want one and instead of it taking me to the game, it just says, sorry you didn't beat level 6. Never let me even try?
Booooooooooooo!

my winning run I didn't shoot a single bag. not one. I just let myself zone out and dodge obsticles.. since I was barely focused I didn't mind losing when I did, so I just kept at it and got it eventually

Just leave or shut up and try again.

You're quite the little fanboy aren't you?

I can't get the game to come up, everytime I click on 'I Want One' it tells me to beat level six.

suggestions? I just want my first bouquet of carrots

1.) Getting more points makes no difference

2.)staying in one lane hoping to draw the up coming bad guys has no effect

3.)Crashing to make sure you do not have a flesh error does not matter either the error can occur on any life trust me it happened to me.

It all comes down to good luck. Also you might want to consider what your time is worth when boghoging around with this. Good one woot even though you will lose some customers over this.

Man I hit every single thing (didn't miss one) and even got double on a few.. 21 in a row and double blocked on level 3 =(

this is the first time i've posted on here for several years, so that shows how much i believe in this. this is fake. i've played this game over 100 times, for several hours, but they all end the same: a double block. screw this. it isn't worth a Big Orphaned Cetacea. i'm going back to my life

fun.
i didnt want to buy it anyway.
ha

Well, I have to go to work now, and I couldn't win the game of chance, so I can't have a Big o' Cosmos. I got up at 5AM so I could get a Big o' Cosmos before they sold out for the first time in my life.

Thanks, Woot.

has anyone ever bought "crap" before? what can I expect...besides crap?

1.5 hours and nothing! I hate whoever made it to lvl 17 :P

No one will make a quality post today, they will be too busy playing the game. Happy April Fools day!

Man talk about inflation! Didn't crap used to cost a buck?

You know, after playing for so long I don't mind about losing. I'd rather some kid with good twitch reflexes (or even a Flesh code who decided to hack this thing) beat me than a bot.

The real practical joke is watching the wootcast, deciding to get a woot second chance and being denied THAT due to legislators trying to push a religious blue law agenda...

As a side note - liked the FSM on level 3.

awe come on... i stink at games

Too many times being double blocked. Good idea but poor programming.

As I get ready to get rid of one Big Orphaned Cetacea, an ileostomy I am getting reversed from colon cancer surgery, Woot gives me a brand new Big Orphaned Cetacea. Thank you!!!!

I feel bad for the Crappraiser. We were chatting as we both waited for it to turn 1 am for us. He got past the required levels several times at 2 and then 3 but never had the chance to buy. He's really going to start thinking that Woot is conspiring against him.

As a multi-year woot customer, even tho it is April 1st, all I can say about this is:

Woot = FAIL

Woot - I hate you with the heat of a thousand suns.

I just don't get how there can be impassable parts to this game, I played for an hour this morning, and another when I got to work only to lose every time on an impossible pass.

Yay! I made it to level 8 so I got my crap!

Booooooooooooo!

same here

Says i cant even play. nothing happens when i click i want one >.<

I really do like the idea of earning a Big Orphaned Cetacea. I just wish it was way more skill based, way less luck based, and way less a waste of time.

First Bag-o-crap ever!! Thanks woot for giving us with jobs a chance this time around. =)

Note: I think it was my sixth or seventh try before I didn't get double blocked on level 1 or 2, at which point I didn't get another double block until level 7, just long enough to qualify.

Good luck guys.

The game sucks. . . even if it is an april fools. It gives you too many no win road blocks on both sides of your path.

You need to get rid of that 286 processor you're using... Maybe woot! can use it in their servers?

Darn. Looks like the Konami Code doesn't work.

Level 1, 787, server error, level 2, 21942 server error, finally, level 8, 98617 and it let me order, thanks Woot. Fix the servers, they wouldn't let me order crap!!

I call BS on Woot today. That and maybe I'll go think about a fire in a nursing home.
