FUUUCK, I hate comming in threads like these just to find out it was yesterday.

[QUOTE=Djessey;27392314]FUUUCK, I hate comming in threads like these just to find out it was yesterday.[/QUOTE] It was today.

All done and got $10, though for me shipping is $35. Options?

[QUOTE=Vbits;27393094]All done and got $10, though for me shipping is $35. Options?[/QUOTE] Either pay for the shipping or don't order. Not trying to sound rude, but those are the only two options.

I was not planing on ordering. What should I do with the code?

[QUOTE=Vbits;27393386]I was not planing on ordering. What should I do with the code?[/QUOTE] Trade it or give it away to someone who didn't win anything.

[QUOTE=Ragy;27392026]How was it poorly planned? Servers were expected to be overloaded as with any free offer.[/QUOTE] Yeah, And what did stop them to use better servers ? It was just random luck.

[QUOTE=OrYgin;27393596]Yeah, And what did stop them to use better servers ? It was just random luck.[/QUOTE] Why should they use better servers? They gave away $180,000 in a few hours, that's insane. Everyone should be more than thankful that they even did this. [editline]13th January 2011[/editline] I can't believe they don't carry a basic large or medium breadboard.

I got $74.

It's over :(

So who wants a $10 free day code?

I'd take it. I was considering waking up at 3am to participate, but then I realised that I needed to catch up on my sleep.

I myself got up at 5:10am. What would you get with the code?

Very Nice. I am just going to sit on this for a while to see what else pops... It should be in your inbox soon.

I got $90 :3:

wtf, why didn't I see this thread earlier?!

Apparently from the reports the server was more or less being DDoSed by the load; nobody could get to any of the pages. So I wouldn't worry about it. Also, thanks Vbits!
