FYI. You are all about to win. I’m about to feel the lack of attention and go to bed. Just FYI. Why do user accounts get blocked when all the bad words are auto-edited out? Riiiight. I know why. Do not speak ill of the Woot.
Dude…seriously lay off the drugs.

What do you mean “made up”? It was on TV, so it has to be true.

And you’re not hiding behind tiredofwoot? Kirk would whip yer butt. And I’m Kirk so bring it biznatch.
I finally processed an order for random crap, after 3 years of trying. It’s bitter sweet though, since the website would not let me choose 3. Every time I hit “I want 3”, nothing happened. So instead of getting none, I just continued, so I got 1. Hardly seems worth it, since I should have been able to get 3, had the website worked as designed. This wasn’t even a sever issue. It was simply the java script not working.
I’m wondering if the javascript code is external to the main page, which could explain it-- things were loading so painfully slow that maybe the javascript just wasn’t loading, since it sounded like people who waited long enough DID get to switch.
In for three! Happyhappyhappyhappyhappyhappyhappyhappy…
I would be surprised if other sites, if they were to try to sell something like a boc like woot just did, would also have their server freeze up like this. Having 50,000 + people vying for 5886 random stuff for cheap prices and set shipping. Most other online retailers would shudder if they thought about trying it.
If woot adds more servers, the odds won’t improve.
We just won’t have to wait around as long to learn whether we’ve won a Bagga O’ Crappola.
In for three! Happyhappyhappyhappyhappyhappyhappyhappy…

Might have been the g a y comments.

So “tiredofwoot” is … Picard?
so i deffinately picked the wrong day to go for taco bell at midnight. 3 days of carp followed by…well carp, but good carp
So you got the Burrito de Carpa instead.
You should have gone for Irish food instead and gotten Burrito O’Carpa.
Believe it or not I was named after the original great Star Ship Captain. But I only know a James T. Kirk. Not a William Shatner. So you bring it. Oh, it’s already been brought. Seriously, I’m about to have a dip, Skoal Citrus (see I’m not totally narrow-minded) and maybe call it a night. I have truly enjoyed all the Sallies out there getting irritated about the posts though. A truly good finish to an otherwise uneventful night of JD and such.

It is because their servers are Windows Vista Refurbs.

Skoal Citrus is for girls.

As I’m sure many Wooters can relate to, I am on nothing more than being fed up w/my job and a little bit of sour mash. Well, that and woot for blocking words such as S U C K and all those that get mad anytime someone says the three letter G word.
