The syntax of your question has me confused...

@shrdlu: LOL @ local.woot - "collective misery." Could not agree more. Seems it's not working; seems it never did. Ditch it, quietly retreat & forget about it, okay? If it suddenly disappears, I'm not sure I'd notice. And if I did, I wouldn't miss it. Promise I won't bring it up again either.

Wonder if you could use that pitchfork to poke away questions in the rep algorithm, too? Please?

@lichme and @gmwhit: I notice that the deals dot woot bar of deals, with handy link, is still there on all the regular woot sites except for woot central. I'd consider that to be broken, and something that needed reporting. It's there on home dot woot, kids dot woot, and wine dot woot. It was never on shirt dot woot, and it still isn't. It's not on Moofi, but then, we would expect that to be a reverse of woot central, and it appears as expected.

The really dumb thing is that it's even on sellout dot woot. Take a look.

Enough with the local woot. Someone needs to put it out of our collective misery.

@lichme: Turns out it's just hiding as the "sellout" box, like a ninja.

@lichme: Seriously, where is it? I'm missing it; used it constantly. Do NOT care about local.woot, can find the other wootites via my favorited woot.com link.

Re: Most asked question. Not sure, am pretty certain that far too many questions are asked not out of curiosity or interest in the subject, but for rep-building. ::sad sigh::

@caffeine_dude: I lol'ed when I saw the question, which I clicked on (knowing, of course, why you asked it), and got the "can't find that question" error message. Pretty funny all-around. :)

Many of them are deleted, but very inconsistently: "what's your favourite/best/coolest woot purchase ever?"

@lichme: I lol'ed, you ask why my question was deleted. I know why!
I could ask how many users asked 'What is the most duplicated ask question here?' and got their question deleted.

Sorry mods I could not help myself. Hangs head in shame

To the rest of wooters, not worth the effort.

edit @curtise: You have much better restraint then I. I read you comment after I posted my question.

You don't want to know how much I totally wanted to open another new question right after yours:
"What is the most duplicated ask question here?"
I managed to restrain myself.

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.
