Shirt.Woot

Wait, I just ordered the first one and now the individual links don't work...

K, I just had to get these so I got them both for $15/each through the back door. ^_^

I'm in the same boat as you.

And we could have weekly flavor votes!

rocktest wrote:to not hurt people who enter late, they should designate voting for one specific or time period the day before released

Not really.
To make it more fair, the theme should be announced, maybe on Monday, and woot should accept but not post entries from then until Friday noon. Then post all and open voting - that would give more folks time to get their designs ready and not have to compete with the hastily drawn first entries. Keep the rest of the rules, still allow later entries and voting as now.
Voting for a week is OK as not everyone comes in here daily (or hourly).

Last one! Woot!

GOSH DARNIT!!!

the first one I like and its sold out.

is it just me or have most of the t-shirts so far been kinda like inside jokes i dont get.

<bitching>

Even at $5 each I really don't want either shirt. The derby voting system needs a major overhaul. Howabout something simple like.
NOT SHOWING THE VOTES UNTIL THE DERBY IS OVER.
*smacks forehead*

People are sheep, shirts with more votes get more attention and therefore more votes! How do you think presidential elections would go if the number of votes cast so far were shown in the voting booth? it's simple marketing guys, come on!

While I'm complaining about stuff......

Is there any possibility that the maximum shirt size could go up one more? These extra small shirts are killing me, I'm not THAT big of a dude but the largest size is borderline for my chest measurement, this discourages me from buying.

I know you skinny guys like the American apparel shirts. Fine, keep them!
but offer an ALTERNATIVE set of shirts for us overweight computer geeks.
I'd buy a lower quality shirt if I was sure that it would fit me.

</bitching>

damn that sold out fast, ces la vie

I have them *all*. And I went through them all, looking for this cartoon. I was sure I would find it.
Humblingly, I didn't find it.

Check out the Calvin and Hobbes Snow Art Gallery

See some C&H snowmen made in real life here.

=O

sold out!??

my eyes, they decieve me!!!

not fair. NOT FAIR. it's not even been 45 minutes..

45 minutes? Try 7.

That would make sense, but the "backdoor" links are both the same number. You can backdoor them individually by name, though.

(Did that last sentence seem awkward to anyone else?)

jlemos wrote:someone made a comment about the designs being a ripoff off of somewhere else....and their comment got deleted....HAH! Lawsuit anyone?

Perhaps it just gets tiring reading through a forum where half the posts suggest that one, or both shirts, are not original?

MichaelrGraham wrote:45 minutes? Try 7.

Seriously, a sell out on this in 7 minutes and 26 seconds! Unbelievable.

Well that sucks A$$. would have gotten these.

For all the people (~20) people who say, "Neither is worth $5" and the "Derby Sucks" let it be known that 1000 people in under 8 minutes disagreed. Plus the folks that are shelling out $15 per shirt now. So I defend your right to say a design "sucks", or is a "copy" (btw, I do have the print rights to the flame image that my shirt supposedly resembles), or is not "worth even $5."

But in the end, 1000 shirts are bought (and yes, I know the cheapness factor played into that). But the 20 or so forum complaints that used to bug me no longer do :-) (heck, there were a ton of complaints on the Snake Infinity one and that sold out by morning).

I'm looking forward to tomorrow's theme...

m8gen wrote:yay. i got my order processed. odd though, the list of things ive bought no longer shows my 2 old purchases. hmm

Were they on the normal woot or shirt.woot. None of my woot purchases show up here and vice versa.

What really sucks are all the people who posted that they don't really like the shirts but bought them because of it being a two for one deal. Some of us actually liked the shirts and couldn't buy them because they were already sold out. Thanks a lot jerks.

Wow, what a night to forget about woot and remember to check nearly an hour let when I was trying to go to sleep. I doubted I'd wear either, but wouldn't have minded owning one of the snowmen one.

Oh well.

markzero wrote:Uh, hey, Woot, the snowmen look like a rip off of a Calvin & Hobbes comic.
But I'm sure you checked that out. Right?

WooT doesn't need to check it out. Their artist release sees to that.
It's the artist that indemnifies woot if there is a copyright issue.
BW will be pointed at the artist if woot gets the lawerly phone call.

They don't worry

*sigh* What a wonderful night to be out until two in the morning... just one hour after these shirts were sold for 5 bucks. I figured something like this might happen, but I didn't think they'd sell out in 7 minutes. Grrr... I hate woot sometimes.

Gluttony, thy name is "I want 3" :-P

buy some woot wine, and it will all make sense!

I checked it out a couple of minutes after 1, read the description, and decided what the hey, it's only $10! around 1:04. So I hit I want one! and woot failed to respond for about 5 minutes, when it was sold out.

Anyone else have trouble with the overloaded server?

WTH ONLY 900 ?!?!

I'm tempted to buy both individually because they're actually really good---but dammit!!!

Good job, samryan and jamescho84! Great shirts, and great summer-into-fall designs!

Great, I think the "backdoor" links are sold out too. They all link to a page saying "Sold out".

I really wanted the Unhappy Meeting one, I might even have bought one for $15.
'
EDIT:

Nevermind, must have been a bug with my browser, I see them now.

Now, to decide: To spend $15 more, or not to spend $15 more, that is the question.

Thanks to the nice folks who say they liked the design. And the nice folks who bought them. I used to feel bad about the 12 or so who said the design sucked, ergo, I sucked.

Thank you Woot, for building my confidence and boosting my self-esteem. I no longer cry myself to sleep over the slurs of those angry bunch of Forumers.

You can still get them, they just aren't selling at a loss anymore. $10 bucks for two is awesome, but if you really like the shirt $15 isn't bad.

i think that was mostly the calvin and hobbes effect, and the $5 a shirt deal, that's a nice deal for stupid shirts, better than walmart and a normal company

will they be 2 for 15 tomorrow or do we have to buy them seperately?

im not saying you shouldnt buy them, but when people say they were great designs..., that's not always why people buy them evidently

no fair. i got home from work and its already sold out!
