That was disappointing at best.

• Password did not work
• Got booted off - lost cart

Wetzel, where did you read that we get another 100 points? I read through the info on Andy Mark's page here:

http://www.andymark.com/FIRST-Choice-Public-s/245.htm

I didn't see it there.

Re: First Choice 2013
 

Just got a notice my team's order shipped. AndyMark is efficient on the hardware end!

Re: First Choice 2013
 

A spare cRio, another netbook, 3 Talons, the Window motor lift assembly set, 2 batteries, and a couple sensors. Did pretty good this year I think :D

Do we really get an additional 100 credits in kickoff day? Can someone confirm this?

Re: First Choice 2013
 

Re: First Choice 2013
 

We got one on a second round of ordering too!

Re: First Choice 2013
 

Batteries just came back in stock.

Someone's being sneaky over at AndyMark and metering things out =).

Re: First Choice 2013
 

It looked like everything restocked batteries, classmates, talons, sidecars, etc. This could be very bad if that wasn't supposed to happen.

Also here, in addition to David's link on the FIRST page (third bullet in blue)

Thanks for the link.

Wow, registration is very valuable this year it appears! I guess there will be more items added that are game-specific.

Looking forward to "FIRST Choice Ordering Party: Round 2" at kickoff.

Re: First Choice 2013
 

So now I'm sitting here with 20 video cards and no more credits, and if I waited I could have a Classmate and some Talons? Oh well. I'm fine with it.

Re: First Choice 2013
 

It seems people were have a problem with logging in, but did anyone have an issue with a very high shipping fee? The system tried to charge me $2,968.93 US for shipping to Duluth, MN.

Re: First Choice 2013
 

Regardless of this minor snafu, FIRST Choice is still a really good thing. It's definitely something that can be refined as time goes. Probably next year they should give us the log on info a couple of weeks early and then change everybody's credits from 0 to 100 when they want to go live.

At least TIMS didn't explode. That's what I figured would happen at 12:00 EST.

Re: First Choice 2013
 

Too bad, our team payment is not complete (waiting for grant?) so we are not eligible for ordering today.

Happy shopping and good luck to you guys!

Re: First Choice 2013
 

I finally got granted access at 12:25

Had to place two separate orders, because the Classmate stock went away then returned.

No real trouble, though the database did have an inorecct zip code for me and rejected my credit card. Took me a frantic moment or two to figure out what was wrong.
