Next time…

I’m starting to think the Woot servers are made out of leftover parts from CompUSA and Fry’s… 4 Place order pushes and still slapped with the 504/503. At least with the VOP you knew the despair was real… now they are just torturing our souls ![]()
No vestibule of patience? What kind of Woot off! is this?
Hopefully Woot sees this and gets whatever issue corrected. I was certainly disappointed and I didn’t even get a BOC.
All I got was the cog spinning ![]()
minutes? you sure the server can handle that?
@ThunderThighs
Even if I don’t get to purchase a BOC, Woot! Is still my favorite place to waste my precious time ![]()
I would say it was not personal but this is the second time today ![]()
You know the reason was Amazon employees being fired ![]()
Hit place my order multiple times just to have it time out and now it’s gone.
I’m not mad, just really disappointed.
I won another gateway timed out again
Me too! I’m so mad! It was at the very beginning!
Let us know when you build a server that can withstand a surge like this. Think of other surge failures - ticketmaster, taylor swift tickets, etc.
Is it in your order history?
I had issues at the beginning, but my order still went through.
Sorry, you already got one this month, gotta wait 31 days before getting another
Ye Old Servers failed on this one and in a big way. I even miss the usual “waiting room”. No coffee for me and yep, I’m now bitter.
If I got a Woot Buck for every ime I got to the place order screen, I could have paid for the BOC you know, if I could get the BOC.

No vestibule this time… But having to reauthenticate EVERYTHING even after having logged in just a short while ago, then having the servers crash just when I enter my OTP AGAIN!
Why do I even continue to try?
Same!

Nah.
Gateway errors are available whenever.
