Same here!! Haven't tried to get a Buccaneers of Caribbean in Woot Beta. Is the Waiting Room BS or will I actually get a Buccaneers of Caribbean

Does it tell you when there's no way at all you'll get one, or do you sit in purgatory forever?

It refreshes to the sold out page. no Buccaneers of Caribbean for me, again.

URL:

Woot.com/rbhsfrrnltibcswvitpbntophssrbraarrcp

uh, nevermind.

over?

Dear Woot Gods, please be merciful and offer up a couple more of these sweet lighter guns. Thank you. Love, me.

One happy Carper here!

aww maann. i missed it i was ready with the code. sucky slow dorm internet.

So I was in the Waiting Room and it finally went to the buy screen. I clicked the stupidly large yellow button and then it put me on the waiting list. After a minute there, I got a message that said "Denied".

I hope this is the test for their new Buccaneers of Caribbean server overload handling - it was quite nice.

Oh so close, yet no Buccaneers of Caribbean....

unfortuanetly, they got rid of the "bags", but amazon was kind enough to leave us the crap.

Got into the waiting room incredibly fast, but missed out since I don't allow pages to automatically reload themselves and I had to hunt around to change that option.

Next time. Thanks for the opportunity, woot!

I remember when I was excited about bags of crap, but then I got enough extra HDMI cables and single refurbished wash cloths and lost my passion.

Yes. Buccaneers of Caribbean is sold out. I am in the Buccaneers of Caribbean waiting room though so we'll see...

So close, i misspelled one letter, thought it was a K instead of an R and I already missed it...

Any chance a staff could confirm they are gone and those in the ante should give up?

So what be the longest one of ye scallywags has spent in the dreaded antechamber of doom and still actually gotten yer mitts a Brick of Craziness? Arr.

Still in waiting room. It's either the last item up - or the servers or so backed up with waiting room that they are slow popping up the next item.

It's my birthday... let me have my first Buccaneers of Caribbean

I think this gun broke Woot. Its all sold out but refusing to die.

After 2 years, scored my first Booty of Contraband. I was jumping around my house yelling "I won a Booty of Contraband," over and over. My Wife was laughing and then I had to explain to her the significance of it. Ahoy Maties! Aye Aye!

My husband will be appalled that I spent over 47 hours doing this.

First Buccaneers of Caribbean ever for me! Looks like the scavenger hunt was an equalizer. Don't think I've ever even made the Waiting Room before. Thanks woot! for making this wootoff fun and leveling the field, a little.

yarrrrrrgg.....tiny little mess up in the URL! ><

did we forget about the woot-off? next item please!

The Buccaneers of Caribbean page is showing as sold out now.

Dang, out of the waiting room right to the sold out page. Oh well, this is much less of a disappointment than last night.

anyone else STILL in the waiting room? Never been this far, not sure how long to expect that.

At least move on to the final item for those of us that missed out on the Booty of Contraband. Again. And Again. And Again.

I forgot the first two letters of the URL and missed the whole thing! Aaaaaaaarg-inine!

will it ever tell you that it's sold out in the waiting room or what?

wollern wrote:interesting...when did they add the waiting room?

where's the waiting room?

I double-checked my letters just to be sure and found I mixed up a I and an L. Good thing I checked, but I still went to the antechamber. Never seen it before. Gotta admit, I kinda like the idea.

I had /offers as part of my URL to paste in, which 404'ed. No such luck for the second day in a row. Figures...

that lighter gun is actually pretty cool looking. sad that it was either try for the crap or go for the gun.

Still waiting.....

I haven't got 1 in years and years. I used to get in once in a full moon. No longer. I don't even worry when it's coming up as I know the server gets bogged down like it did for this item.

I got my bucket of chum!!!!! All using my iPhone!!!!! 1st one!!!

Ugh. Clicked on the URL, which I had finished out as best I could, and instead of just...you know... CLICKING WHERE I CLICKED... it highlighted the whole URL (which is what Chrome does) and replaced all the text I entered with the single letter I was TRYING to just add to the end. Screwed by technology.
