If you mean the bag - No.

If you mean crap in general, I got a rock on a stick. One (wo)man's crap is another (wo)man's treasure.

I did! And even better, I got the FRIST post in the BOC comment thread!

Amazingly enough, I did! I happened to walk back into my office at the right time to see it, and managed to get through. Honestly, I used no scripts or fancy anything of any sort, my timing just happened to be right this time.

And it was the slowest moving ticker I've ever seen for BoC. It was like they shut down their usual server farm and ran the entire woot.com domain from a C64 when the BoC came up.

Been there, done that, once was enough for me. Happy crap-capturing to everyone who loves the thrill of the hunt!

Nope. I was at work, working. Didn't even see it.

@xdavex: I was at work too, no time for Woot during the day.

Nope. Just watched it try to load the transaction page to no success.

Nope. Lagged too much for me to log in despite being able to get on the front page... DAMN MY INCAPABILITY OF LOGGING IN!

When I got on woot, there was the BoC picture and i got all excited, but then instead of a button that says "I want one!" there was just text that said "SOLD OUT!" I was saddened

@nenaptio: That is why I log in at the start of a woot-off and don't log out. I doubt anyone has ever picked up a BoC if they weren't already logged in before it came up.

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.
