Time again for another march toward t-shirt doom! Discuss this week's life-or-death struggle for sales supremacy as chronicled on the Reckoning page all week long.

Here's how the Reckoning week runs now: every Tuesday at midnight, we retire the previous week's lowest-selling shirts and launch this here discussion thread. Tuesday around noon we'll post the all-new, all-early Reckoning Recon. On Friday, we'll juice demand and prime the pump with a little weekend reminder post. Finally, on the following Monday, the Day of Reckoning post sounds the last call for the Reckoned shirts. All of those posts will be linked below. Monday night (or Tuesday morning), it starts all over again. The Reckoning, she is a hungry beast...

By the Monday sales so far, I can see two more noobs escaping ... but that's probably about it for this week. Of course, I've been completely wrong before too ...

Hmm... I thought "Slow and Steady" was going to debut higher on the list. Not based on any actual facts, of course. Just a feeling I had.

Alas, poor shirt.woot. I knew it well...

Woot's / The Reckoning's future-based accounting method means that newer shirts will look worse in ranks than older shirts. As the week progresses, though, the additional days get accounted in and become par on Monday.

The woot-based DSR is indicative of the shirt's rank in the reckoning. The "real time" DSR is a better indicator of how a shirt is selling up to the time of the post. Even though I don't post them anymore on weekends, as not to create an easy competitive (dis)advantage to any shirt, I can say that the two numbers close in a much more by Sunday night (T-minus 12 hours).

Narf - I found out this past day three bad things:

1 - my daughter still has someone at her school who is still a problem for her (college, not middle school)

2 - my main hard drive died after a month, which is why I am up right now.

3 - my first days sales numbers are NOT the true first day sales numbers IF there are still $10 sales pending. Sort of like the cut-off issue that affected the Reckoning when not final sales could impact the Reckoning. (Bunnies anyone?)
I had hoped that the first numbers were ALL of the first days sales, but as discussed by the artist, Diane and I in Luke's thread, it appears that the true number of first day sales will only be known by the artist and Woot if there are first day sales that post after the sales numbers go up.

I will still try to get the first numbers posted for the sales because these numbers are comparable to each other and I have been doing this for some time but they are not the final first day sales.

Are my first posting numbers good for you? Do you want them? How much data from August and September have I lost? Will I still be at my computer when my son's alarm goes off so he can go to work - that one is true.....

Stress not, TheGolux - may things mellow for you in the next 24 to 48 hours! There are many things more important than our small diversion we call Shirt.Woot - like Back-To-School-Night. I got here in the dark this morning and after a full day of school, a union meeting, and BTSN [no breaks - they're serving dinner at the union ], I'll go home in the dark and go to bed.

Ugh, reminds me of when I went to school in France....we walked both to and from school in the dark when it was winter (uphill! in the snow! with wolves!...ok none of those last 3 things were true). Remarkably depressing.

Whew. The Reckoning is always such a violent affair. So much slashing and gashing and ripped cotton. We prefer not to look until it's all over, when the corpses have stopped gurgling and the moans no longer hang on the air like so much fog pouring from the mouth of hell. Also, we're sitting in on the local community college's "Macabre Imagery" writing class. Let us know what you think after you've checked out the Reckoning standings as of when I copied and pasted this:

  1. Kitchen Warfare
  2. Questionable Table of Elements
  3. Boba Fetch
  4. Cell Division
  5. The Binge
  6. Super Effective
  7. Nevermore
  8. Acquired Taste
  9. Morning Powerup
  10. It Came Out Of Nowhere
  11. The Three Classical States of Matter
  12. Hounted Housework (noob)
  13. Identity Code
  14. Four Classmates
  15. Unstealthiest Ninja
  16. Reading Rocket Ship
  17. Teacher Talks Funny
  18. The Cheese is a Liederkranz
  19. Laundry Day (noob)
  20. Illiterate Rainbow
  21. In the Library With the Wrench
  22. Straw, Sticks, & Bricks BBQ
  23. Life Choices

Golux - the last time I had a really really crappy day, I ended up finding/buying at Goodwill a Wacom tablet, a 22" Samsung LCD, and a woot shirt. It was $72 well spent. YMMV, of course.

As for the numbers ... yes, they're helpful even if not 100% spot on - it's not like my baseline figures are exactly at 12:00 midnight, so there's a chance for some variation already. It's not humanly possible to catch every sale during a woot-off either, hence why the resulting calculations are "approximate". But they're all close enough to work, and together, it adds that informational aspect to how the Reckoning works, not to mention a way for the artists to see how their shirts are progressing over the week(s) too.

For those still not understanding all the numbers us nerdier folks discuss here ... (D)aily (S)ales (R)ate that's over 20 is good; under 20, not so good.

Good point - usually the OCD would kick in at this point and I'd have to spend time figuring out which one's are the extras, but I gotta get to the union meeting!

You complain when WootBot shows up late. You complain when WootBot makes tiny little errors, such as including already-reckoned shirts in the list of current shirts.

It's a wonder WootBot shows up at all!

Poor WootBot....

If you really cared, you'd provide the bottle.... ;)

BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!

I also complain when WootBot misses current shirts. Or when work is missed, period!

As for providing the booze ... they have their own source already. Sure, it's fancier than malt liquor, but considering my woot.shirt collection increased by 15 in the past month, damnit they can afford it!

Obviously not, because WootBot would've been properly inebriated. After all, the issue is that a sober robot can't do his job.

So what do the DSRs suggest at this stage? Looking at the "real time" numbers, one more will escape but that's about all that we can expect. And while 18-21 have traded places a few times already, by Monday it's going to be a fight for 19-22, meaning only two will survive. Will the fastest selling shirt make it, or will it be outdone by a rainbow? We'll find out ...

Last week, I bought my friend a copy of In The Library With the Wrench because she wanted one, but kept forgetting to buy it herself.

Now this week I'm faced with a terrible choice. Both Juniper Tree and Der Mond are fantastic designs. I can only permit myself to buy one of them. (I know I have no interest in any Hipster Animal winners this week.) The question is, which one?

I may have to flip a coin.

You can't go wrong with either one, but by the (real time DSR) numbers, Juniper Tree has a better chance of making it; Der Mond is unlikely to.

Just bought two Cheese because, based on Narf's calculations, it's at risk and I may not be able to get to the website to order anything Monday.

So in a way, Narfcake just sold two shirts. Where's his commission, woot? ;^)

Woot just sends it to the artist instead. It's better, really. ^_^

None of these bystanders stand a chance in hell making it out past week 1.

Why? Gut reaction?

Look at Luke's DSR, and tell me where it would rank ...

Yeah, looks like we're gonna see "Luke" hanging around for at least a few weeks...

Some more movement tonight ... and a bigger gap between 20th and 21st. Maybe that 4-way won't happen afterall ...

I fear for Cheese next week. We may finally see it escape the testing center. Both Luke and the pillow-fighting samurai appear poised to knock a couple noobs off, and I suspect one of the hipster animals might make it out as well.

On a related note, I keep wondering if any shirt will ever take over Skate Town's dubious honor, although QR is the closest we've seen in a long time.

FWIW, Skatetown is NOT the lowest selling Woot shirt ever. I made a note of it ... at work, so it'd have to wait until at least Monday.

On another note, shirt.woot's 4th birthday shirt is still available. Along with a shirt that proves wooters will buy anything, the random shirt shirt.

LOL, Staketown sold 158 so it has to be under that. Maybe it was one of the birthday shirts or a woot special Tee. Waiting is hard.
