I'll take the whiskey ;-)

So...um....

I guess there's no more Balloons of Celebration to be found tonight?

ThunderThighs wrote:Uhm, ok. That's enough. Off to your corners and don't come back until you can be nice.

Come on, get happy!

Think of getting a bag like a job. Since the contents are probably only worth $50 if you're lucky, and you spend 10 hours getting one. That comes out to roughly $5/hr minus the $8 cost to do it. Save your time. Save your money. Remember it's crap and it's for fun. When it stops being fun, you probably should stop trying for one.

You're wrong, it's duck duck grey duck. Duck duck goose doesn't make sense, a goose isn't a duck.

(sigh)

Ok, well, I guess I'll just wait it out. No time to monitor anything today - too much work.

Nope, last tweet from woot said "And, they're gone. Congrats to those who got one!" So it seems they are done.

Why can't a goose join in on the party?? :-(

Woot Twitter said they're all gone..

ThunderThighs wrote:Awww, don't bring the party down. Let's end on a high note and all be friends.

Who's up for a round of Row, Row, Row Your Boat?

Gently down the stream...

Hmm...they said "and...gone!" when the first Twitter one finished too....

I took that as "this batch is gone".... but I haven't been paying much attention today. Now that I have a chance to breathe I'm just realizing what went on today!

And I imagine that F5ing the eight-years-of-crap page until midnight will probably be fruitless

My cat keeps looking at me with longing eyes...I think he wants a Balloons of Celebration

either that or because it's his dinner time...

:bows: Thank you, thank you, thank you. Don't forget to tip your Thunder Thighs, ladies and germs!

Do I see a quality post in my future?!! ;)

Edit: I got one, I got one!!! Quality Post = 1!

Almost as good as a Balloons of Celebration...almost.....

I think we Minnesotans just hate geese.

No need....I'll just take one of your Bags of Crap! ;)

I got my first Quality Post and a huuuuuugs tweet from Woot Twitter both within 2 minutes of each other....can my night get any better?! Oh wait...yes, it can....

That was a fun birthday party. Thanks for the Balloons of Celebration - a great party favor!

What a day. We laughed, we cried, we refreshed so much that it could be legally classified as a suicide attempt, and then cried some more. And you know what? We'll all be back here to do it again tomorrow.

Happy 8th, woot.

Thunder Thighs. I commend you for being such a committed employee and following these past 24 hours.

I second this.
And thanks for helping us keep things (at least semi) civil.

Sorry some of us get out of line.

SO are we converting this into the Balloons of Celebration forum now or will it just all be about sucking?

I still think you should get double time for the sleep you missed. In addition, if Woot doesn't have hazard pay, it should. The craziness flying around gets toxic at times. Until that happens, just know we lubs you!

Just noticed the tracker is up:

I was able to snag a we-eight-the-crap after a very long and crazy day.

Good luck everyone!

Wootathon Birthday Big ol' Celebration (RANDOM CRAP) Discussion

Totally agree. I hate sites that require you to use a 3rd party account. Doesn't make sense.

tjotech wrote:Hey Woot!

This "so called" birthday celebration is total B.S.

I have been a wooter for 8 years.
I don't have (and don't want) a facebook or twitter account.

So Woot! now DISCRIMINATES against users who don't use so called "social media" sites.

Bottom line is, Woot! is EXCLUDING long time members from participating by REQUIRING its members to sign up for a THIRD PARTY website in order to participate.

Again, TOTAL B.S.
