17-22 kept swapping places this weekend ... so you know it's going to get fun tomorrow morning, as most likely, 16-23 is going to be involved.

(neuro waves hi)

Wow, this is most volatile reckoning in a long time. I'm surprised by the shirts that are in play because I think some of them are excellent shirts that "should" have sold better. I agree with whoever postulated that the site redesign resulted in depressed sales for a few weeks - maybe because there was no link to the Reckoning page for so long - and these shirts are being punished for that.

I'd hate to see both Artichokey and Relative Dimensions fall in the same week; fingers crossed ApeLad has some cotton in next week's Reckoning. I don't believe Nevermore is going anywhere anytime soon, but I predict Little Red Fighting Hood will be Reckoned next week.

What makes this Reckoning all the more exciting is the fact that I like pretty much every design in play. Except, of course, the one least likely to get knocked out.

If I had the capital, I'd buy each one of them, but this Reckoning caught me on a dry week. I may grab the Phoenix if nothing else.

EDIT: In case you're keeping tabs, I've had a relapse.

Yeah, so there's that...

You've made it to 16, I think you're safe come noon. Which means we've got an excellent shot at a historic week of no polliwog death!

I'm usually a silent observer of the reckoning, but I had to just say how exciting this one is. I really hope to see relative dimensions survive.

Just realized that this Reckoning will almost certainly result in a halving of the shirts available on AA.

T-minus 2-hours and 7 polliwogs in the top-20 ... which has NEVER happened before in the history of shirt.woot. That's a longer record than Nevermore (4+ years) or the presence of a Ramyb shirt (or collab) in the reckoning (3.5+ years).

We're in the same boat. I feel bad because I'm at work and have done nothing. I even had a meeting this morning that consisted mostly of me nodding along while refreshing the page.

Ten minutes of tension to go. I admit, as always, I'm hoping that the bird survives. I feel like this is the toughest competition I've seen in a while. Too many shirts that are good are hovering at the bubble.

Artichokey is still on AA in kids; it's my absolute favorite shirt of all time. Relative Dimensions is currently safe, but anything can happen!

What time do sales close for the server? 11:55 or just completed by 12:00?

Can't be much. If I'm right, it survived by 2 shirts, and that's it. I admit to having bought one, then some one named grim-something did too, and that was it for last minute sales.

All in all, pretty darned close.

Help! This week's drama is over, but I keep refreshing!

I think experts call it "Post Imposter Stress Syndrome." It's where the reckoning is over, but you keep expecting some weird, rule-breaking jump to occur.

And this is the way to end a Reckoning!!!!

For the first time, all seven polliwogs are in the top twenty.

The final prediction is proved wrong.

The seven polliwogs are at 16 or above.

Only one cat is reckoned.

And look at 20.......

Thank you. I think Nevermore is one of the classiest shirts on Woot and helps attract different subgroups of potential buyers.

Oh, wow. It's surreal to realize that my decision to buy two Relative Dimensions instead of three was probably the tipping point that kept The Bird in the Reckoning.

The Bird is lucky my 11am meeting ran long. Oh yes, it is. Very lucky indeed.

With a Wootoff coming tomorrow, I suspect it's safe for a few more weeks.

Reckoning #13
Reckoning #6
Both of these Reckonings had all of the reckoned shirts noted as polliwogs but not all of the polliwogs appear as reckoned. Only two shirts appear to have been reckoned in these weeks. Unless what woot currently has for these weeks is wrong.

But woot "never" changes the reckoning after the fact!

Hey, I just finished a hour class on "Quarterly Update and Hot Topics" on accounting for income tax. My brain is in nit-picky mode!

They were in their expansion phase those two weeks.

1 (1) Unstealthiest Ninja 3 4 - (+432) to 4907. 4906
4 (3) Thanks For All The Fish - (+123) to 5037. 5036
20 (21) Nevermore - (+127) to 49138. Approx. 15.04 real time DSR; 15.04 Woot-based DSR
21 (16) Relative Dimensions - (+106) to 5623. 5621
22 (17) Cheater - (+113) to 3453. 3452
25 (20) Nightmeow on Elm Street - (+92) to 3187. 3185

I don't think gement's 2 shirt purchase of RD made it on time. If the purchase had been a few seconds earlier....



Those numbers also don't account for the first 12 hours of the new site, which was spoty at best for things actually working. 8-10 hours at a 20 DSR could be 8 shirts...

With a Wootoff coming tomorrow, I suspect it's safe for a few more weeks.



A pox on you! Woot off when we're already having number issues?

Upside, interesting to see how the first woot-off of the new site designs works.

That makes it doubly cool for me in a way. Not only did you happen to have the meeting, but I did a bit of a coin toss on whether or not I would give Nevermore a sale. This neat little turn of events means that I get to add two notches to the, "I helped save Nevermore" belt. I wonder who else has played a roll in the near reckoning misses for the bird.

Anyone else care to fess up at this time?

I bought one just before one of the reckonings, but I didn't buy it to save the shirt my mom really wanted one.

I am beginning to feel like Artichokey has a similar fan base to Nevermore. It was in real danger at the start of the day, (24th to 17th in 12 hours) and I feel there was a concentrated effort to step up and save it.

Not complaining though. I'd like to see that one stick around a while longer.

Yeah, so there's that...

At 11:57AM, Artichokey was in 21st. I have five friends with kids between 2 and 2.5 and I decided Artichokey would make a great Christmas present for three of them. After my purchase completed, I went back out to the Reckoning and it hadn't posted yet, with Artichokey still in 21st place, so I'm pretty sure my purchases got in on time.

Relative Dimensions was 17th, I think, when I started my purchase and I figured it was safe. Sorry, ApeLad: hope we saved the right shirt!

(neuro contemplates the weather where her friends live and wonders if 2.5 is too young for "Christmas in July" instead of "Christmas in snowpants weather")

I got a K6 for the one who would be three in January, but that's going to be too big this summer, isn't it?

I need another kittytron shirt, my absolute favorite woot shirt, but pretty beat up now :-(
