@thedogma: similar to how the deals that aren't free are biased to those who don't have money.

@sfcchase: Yes. I ended up doing just that.

linked, tweeted, got $3, revoked, deleted. All in under 2 minutes.

This is biased against those who do not have Twitter. Sad face.

@jrhusc: Or you could just create another Twitter account just for this and authorize the app. No need to use your primary account.

@jrhusc: Totally entitled to do as you wish, however as has been said multiple times you can have it send a single tweet, get your $3 and then unauthorize the app and never have it send it again.

That said I've had the Amazon app connected to my twitter account for about a year and a half and it has never caused a problem or sent a tweet without asking first.

Here is why I won't do this and will downvote it, as much as I love Amazon:

It wants me to install a Twitter app to "Authorize Amazon to use your account" to:

Update your profile.
Post Tweets for you.

I have no apps authorized on my account and won't allow this one. Am I wrong or being too cautious?

I'm an active wooter, not so active in forums or deals though. I'm not even sure exactly what I need for the black triangle.

@jeremytheindian: Truefax, I learned everything I know from him, also he was black triangle first :P Funny thing is @cybercowboy has been wooting longer than both of us, while my account was created in 2009 I had only checked it out about 10 times in between then and when I made my first woot purchase back in june of 11.

@snooty2toes: Probably because they didn't want Amazon sending tweets through them. Or don't have twitter.

Not sure whats up w/ typo on expiration date, but confirming it worked for me. I got an episode of peanuts for and an episode of Lunar Jim for and both were charged for .00

@themave: Maybe a typo?

However, you do have a limited time to Tweet:

"To receive this offer, you must click the button above to follow Amazon Instant Video on Twitter and tweet the above message between April 27,2012 at 12:00 AM PST and May 1, 2012, at 11:59 PM PST."

@themave: yea Usually they have an expire date, but I couldn't find one (didn't look close enough apparently) thanks for adding that.

I'm CyberCowboy pretty much everywhere I'm at on the internet. Started back in 90's when I was rodeoing and spending a lot of time in cyberspace, it became my Compuserve name and stuck.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
