By the way, when you beat LV4 it warpes you back to LV1....but it counts it as LV5, so just keep going. Once you beat LV3 for the second time, you will be able to buy your crap.

The kind that can read and see it is a 1 limit?

Hey... I'm right there with ya!! I got to Level 5 and then a darn wheel and flying 90 yr old grandmother come at the same time. Then, it restarts at Level 1!! Are they kidding me!!

I love all the people complaining about this game. Suck it up. Much better than the million dollar april fools bocs of the past. Now that server load died down, it's easy enough to get one.

I'm hoping that your important job doesn't require proper use of the English language...

Well this really stinks!! The IT department has F-L-A-S-H turned off at my work computer and my CRAPPY i-Phone doesn't do F-L-A-S-H. I cant play the game so I guess I am SOL for a neat B-A-G OF C-R-A-P today.

Got mine!

All your Big o' Cosmos's are belong to us!

So there.

Good luck and happy April Fool's Day.

Than how do you do it?

And it is woot's fault that you bought the restricted phone of crap?

I thought it was just me....

To people who are complaining about the "cheating" for massive scores on level 1...you do realize that getting tons of points gets you nothing? You've got to beat a certain level, not get a lot of points.

I hope the joke was worth it, because I imagine Woot is losing a lot of customers today.

quit complaining and get back to work! Please excuse me while I try to beat level 7 LOL. I'm lucky enough to have a workplace where my boss was the one who told me there was a Big Orphaned Cetacea today heh. Work can wait, but a Big Orphaned Cetacea takes precedent over everything.

The game does not load in IE, firefox, or opera. I just get No crap for you yet... beat Level 7 and maybe you'll be worthy.

I was really excited when I woke up to a random crap woot. Little did I know that I would spend the hour that I had before work trying to beat a game that is, at times, literally impossible.

This isn't whining as much as an admission of failure.

This is soooo g@y. Come on woot...

Jokes on me today, I'm at work and can't get a Big o' Cosmos

Dear Woot,

You suck. Give me the old million dollar Big Orphaned Cetacea joke from 2007 that led to me getting my ONLY Big Orphaned Cetacea order ever.

That is all.

Still, its good (bad) to see that the RNG's hate for me in everything continues.


LEVEL. FREAKING. TWO.

Making a game that you cannot win like 99% of the time is a real boghog move guys. Epic failage.

I just have to say that I don't even want a Big Orphaned Cetacea, but you guys have made my day. Not that Woot! has ever been "professional" in the commonly held meaning of the world, but Woot! IS an actual company that does DEPEND on customers buying things. So, I love the fact that you always treat your customers like old friends and you are always just who you want to be... instead of putting on a front of politeness to try to get what you want.
I thought I couldn't love Woot! (the people behind name) more. I was wrong. Don't ever stop sarcastic and silly. You guys (and girls, if any) rock!

Locked up my machine. Had to hard-power off. Fedora 12 x86_64. Nice job, Woot. There are other retailers out there that don't play these juvenile games, you know. (I expect this post to be blocked)

What do you mean it worked? I don't want to spend 30 bucks on some Sirius GPP planes - what will that accomplish?

Finally, after hours of trying, I'm in for one. Thanks Woot for the frustrating start of a perfectly good Friday. See you suckers later.

I don't know what these 'levels' are as I am fairly new to Woot. When I click on the 'I want one' button, I only get a white screen.

This is a neat idea, but complete fail in it's implementation. I've been nothing but frustrated for the last 30 minutes trying to get to level 7. I've never made it past level 4, after about 20 tries. Death every time due to both lanes, you guessed it, being blocked.

I'm sorry, I'd rather take my minuscule amount of frustration that comes with the old Big o' Cosmos style, as opposed to the goliath of insanity and frustration that is the "Big o' Cosmos Lane Blocker 5000" game.

Double blocking is not that hard to avoid you just have to be moving to one of the sides at the exact right moment so your character is in the middle but what keeps killing me at level 5 is triple blocking. It's happened to me 3 times in a row and each time the enemy spawns on me so I can't avoid it even when pressing down arrow right when it spawns.

Oh well. I'm sure there is an easy way to avoid that too but I've exhausted my time.

I don't understand, I reached Level 9 and clicked on the button to get my random Big Orphaned Cetacea...it took me back to the main page, so I clicked on the "I want one" button and it put me in the game again. So I was eligible, but it didn't let me get one. Grrrr..

Havent beat level 7 ????

what the... I will be happy and excited to pay for a Big Orphaned Cetacea... only to be denied upon server ping... DOH!

APRIL FOOOOOOLS!!!

I got to level 8 and it said I could order, I was signed in but it looped me back to the game, Realized it was April 1 and the crap is playing the game over and over and over. Nice, thought I got my first POO Bag, I sure did, NOTHING

kaveman212c wrote:"100% bought 1"?! What kind of n00bs do we have purchasing today?

The system changed a few years back - now you automatically get three by buying "1". There's no longer the option to select a quantity.

Nevermind

Why did you create a game the disable are not able to play?

I think what you get is a bag full of that game....

boghogs!
