So, I'm confused.  I hit send when the countdown hit 0, but timestamp said xx:59:58.  Is it when the timer hit zero, or was it supposed to be right on the hour?  I really hope my order counted.

The countdown page needs to be refreshed occasionally because of javascript time drift. Basically, if you leave the page up long enough the timer becomes less accurate due to your browser not keeping track of time "perfectly". Its always a good idea to refresh the page a min or two before the target time.

I missed the sale :p

Although this time I have an excuse - my boss is travelling overseas atm and he happened to call me on Skype not that long before the sale started.

I remain KBKless.
