Really? The last two times? Well if so, it might help the side sale since they are all unprinted designs and need some more advertising.

But I do miss the old reckoning sale they use to have. Also how will I make fun of people not being able to do math or pay attention when they complain that the sale price should be 10.00 instead of 12.00?

Week #232 was the last time the regular reckoning was discounted to $12.

This is a pretty good week for the newbies...for now.

One night now after the worst one-day Woot-off ever ... because it wasn't even a day, what with the servers crapping out and all.

Weird.

still loads of gray shirts, wow.

The Reckoning page is still doing weird things. It was only showing the top 18 shirts. Then when I logged in to comment about it, the rest were there. So someone just browsing, not logged on or new, only sees 18 shirts???

Please fix. The artists lower on the reckoning deserve to not be reckoned this week. You can't order a shirt you can't see.

... and FWIW, Nevermore's days on AA are probably numbered. By the new shirts, it's obvious they're low on AA asphalt blanks, so the next reprint cycle will probably have it reworked on a lighter Anvil blank or a different print color on the (new) darker charcoal.

During the blanks sale, they sold out of Royal Blue in one of the kid's sizes too, so I expect some Anvil blanks for The Binge on the next reprint cycle also.

I think I have all the ones I want that are in AA. Looks like we're nearing the end of the line for me. I have yet to see a pic of someone wearing the Anvil women's blanks that makes me say "Oh, the new blanks look nice."

Are we going to have our first casualty from the kitty derby? Looks like The Artist still has some fans judging from sales numbers, so it might still live but it needs more help.

The server has turned into SERVERUS, the 3-HEADED server from HADES!

They desperately need to declare a couple of derbies where black, brown, asphalt, navy, olive, etc shirts are not allowed.

It's just too gloomy in Reckoning-Land these days.

Well, there was the watercolor derby not too long ago ... and alas, they got reckoned before the grays did.

That said, 40+ of my woot shirts (over 10%) are black; at the other extreme, only one that's pink.

The artist, currently ranked number 22 is a great shirt. Let's keep it alive. I just purchased another two shirts. One for me and one for my wife.

Wait a minute, the general Woot-Off is back on? Didn't it cease to be yesterday, an ex-Woot-Off if you will? Apparently it got better...

So does that mean we'll see the $12 sale today, I wonder?

Cat shirt. Gray shirt. I'm fine with seeing it go.

Seems appropriate, since the new shirt collars are big enough for three heads.

This probably means that if Nevermore survives to a print on AA blanks, it will get another life as people grab it in a different color....

(Disclaimer: I did buy the hoodie, so it's not that I dislike the design but just the current execution on the tshirt.)

On another note, I did vote for Midgerock's raven in the 80's design at GoodJoe. Too silly.

Does anyone know where I can find a "Breathing Award" T? I know so many underachievers that would cherish the recognition.

fibrs wrote:Grover Cleveland Woot-off.

Hah, indeed. A hat tip to you.

Offhand morning observations:

It looks like the bird is safe for another month. That shirt has a strange sales pattern - three weeks of mediocrity, one week of blowin' up, lather, rinse, repeat. I believe this supports the "wear once, wash once, buy another one" theory of this shirt's survival.

Even with a theme like "Spring", the winner is a navy shirt with subdued blue art. (Granted, it is really quite pretty.) Dr. Feelgood prescribes a pitcher of margaritas for all the Wootizens! Cheer up!

With a couple of really strong dailies, next week might be another good one for the foals. Meanwhile, I think we're going to see some of this week's foals in a life or death struggle for spot #20 come Monday..

OK, a little later than tonight ...

Just an observation, but it tends to do well during Woot-Offs, which occur every month or so.

Also, people need to wash screen-printed shirts inside out to avoid fading/cracking of designs. This goes for all shirts, but appears to be really true with Nevermore.

I'm sure there's an equation to that, but damned if I can figure it out. Maybe these cats know ...

OK, I can understand reckoned shirts commanding higher-than-new prices, but seriously, what's wrong with this?

Somebody is going to have buyer's remorse.

On an unrelated note, I meant to mention this last week, but this looks like the first time since reckoning 223 that we haven't had a glow-in-the-dark shirt in the mix. I think that's why things are feeling kinda lonely.

Narfcake wrote:OK, I can understand reckoned shirts commanding higher-than-new prices, but seriously, what's wrong with this?

Yikes. The seller even put down "shirt woot" as the brand! I guess whoever bought it just assumed that "limited edition" meant "you can't get it anymore except in resale".

ETA: I wonder if it's on an AA blank? I'd be willing to pay extra for the AA versions of some shirts that are currently being printed on Anvil blanks. ("That's How I Roll", in particular, comes to mind...)

missmelis wrote:... I wonder if it's on an AA blank?

Yes it is. They were as of a few weeks ago (personally confirmed), and are currently still listed as USA in origins.
