It looks like there were some badass storms that hit woot's servers hard. Seems like everything was up and running but 5 hours of Downtime is a bummer.

I just decided to create this thread because if you have anything to say about it we should discuss it here, and not in the product pages.

This latest version of woot needs a lot of corrective action!
