I see some orange flashing lights on the main page – what do they mean?
No, you aren’t seeing a side effect from your allergy medication. You have found a Woot-Off, a short term frenzied mutation of our product posting procedure. In Woot-Off mode, a new product is launched immediately after the sellout of the previous deal. There is a half-Woot-life of 12 hours maximum on any product within a Woot-Off that does not sell out. The number of Woot-Off items, sequence, and quantity will not be announced. When Woot-Off mode is over, the orange lights will disappear and our normal schedule will resume. Depending on its success, this may be a mode we would go into once or twice a month for a relatively short duration of time (24-72 hours generally.)
I’ve only wooted once, but I follow the site and follow the wootoffs the best I can.
I love BOC. My favorite item. I actually got to checkout TWICE during this woot-off, but the second time it said that I already bought one, EVEN THOUGH IT WAS A DIFFERENT SET… Oh well, guess they have to be fair…
I really should sleep, but I just had 3 mountain dews and chocolate because I thought this would continue…
It was a good wootoff, indeed. I got my first BOC, plus that 5xUSB 2.0 adapter, and the wireless music controller. I got an iRobot dirt dog from woot a few weeks ago and we use it at our build site. Cost a pretty penny but well worth not vacuuming these six weeks
Yeah. There were 3 BOCs this time. The last one stayed there for almost 5 minutes. I was surprised. I would have had enough time to check out at least twice, had I been able to.
Let us know what we all missed in the BOC’s. Way to much <F5> at work when the woot-off is going on.
We could not find the mentors two nights ago … They were hiding in the CAD room wooting :ahh:
