Dan, where exactly do you live? I need your address and the time that you won't be home

AKIMbO · « **Reply #105 on:** Fri, 28 September 2012, 21:12:11 »

I didn't even know that there was a buckling spring compatible salute.

Looks like I didn't make the cut this round. Congrats to those who got some new Clickclacks!

m00nshake · « **Reply #107 on:** Fri, 28 September 2012, 21:42:18 »

I didn't get one, either.

right on the money, sonny!

I was able to get you a "B", in it's place though. =)

i clicked it approximately 750 milliseconds after it hit 0 and i got in, kind of funny i was nowhere near first -- figured i might want to send it from hotmail but it was a bit late at that point

thegunner100 · « **Reply #112 on:** Fri, 28 September 2012, 21:49:59 »

I sent my email about 14 seconds after 6:00 EST... and i didn't make it

.

Oh well... the journey for the pink topre CC continues!

mmmty · « **Reply #113 on:** Fri, 28 September 2012, 21:50:47 »

damn!! I shouldn't have wasted those 3 seconds to make sure I didn't submit too early

clickclack · « **Reply #114 on:** Fri, 28 September 2012, 22:04:42 »

When I was in my account and watching the coundown timer which seemed to luckily match my computer, I saw a gentle trickle of emails coming in the seconds leading to 3:00pm. The moment the clock hit 3:00 BAM! There was an impossible amount of emails. That's right, I said impossible! lawlz. Then they just started pouring in and slowed waaay down towards the end of the first minute, (by these standards, you know, relatively speaking) and then just steadily ran in for the following ten minutes. Jogged in for the next 30 minutes or so. Now it's mostly like whack-a-mole status.

hence why i didn't even bother lol i'll just buy em off someone for $100+ when they start getting added to classified FA in the coming weeks.... since it seems thats all that happens these days lolz

I hit send 1 second after 3:00 PDT and that was already too late for MX skull apparently :|

Its basically just a crapshoot. Every clock is different. I sent the second my cellphone hit 6pm east, probably wasn't even close. Not to worry, half of them will be on sale next month

rainb1ood · « **Reply #118 on:** Fri, 28 September 2012, 22:12:43 »

I sent my order as soon as I saw clickclack posted this:

But I guess it was too late (6 seconds after)

Congrats to the lucky people who got in btw

wiredPANDA · « **Reply #119 on:** Fri, 28 September 2012, 22:14:38 »

I'm sure they will be, but I hope we don't just see a massive influx. So many people trying to get CC legitimately for themselves, only to watch someone else get one to immediately try and turn a profit on classifieds.

noisyturtle · « **Reply #121 on:** Fri, 28 September 2012, 22:36:19 »

Oh ho, another sale with no chance of getting a CC key cap. It's like trying to lose my virginity in highschool, it's never gonna happen until years later when someone takes pity on me and makes me pay through the nose for it.

LOL. I would have happily given it away in exchange for some karma around here. A nice key is nothing without a nice board to put it on.

Not a lot of success stories so far...

poopmat · « **Reply #125 on:** Fri, 28 September 2012, 22:43:35 »

so its safe to assume if you have no email yet ur out??

tjcaustin · « **Reply #126 on:** Fri, 28 September 2012, 22:44:16 »

Yeah, he made a post in his vendor thread a short time ago.

alaricljs · « **Reply #139 on:** Fri, 28 September 2012, 23:54:46 »

Someone started an OT thread about click clack sales...

Otherwise all the info was right where it always is, in CC's forum.

Bim Gao · « **Reply #140 on:** Sat, 29 September 2012, 00:34:24 »

Has he started send the reply email? Or I was out of the sale? T_T

alaricljs · « **Reply #141 on:** Sat, 29 September 2012, 00:35:09 »

Already answered, he made a post: You not get email already, you not get caps.

jcrouse · « **Reply #147 on:** Sat, 29 September 2012, 01:20:56 »

Well, it certainly is a crap shoot, as someone mentioned above. Imagine 100 or more emails flowing into and Inbox at the same time. It is nothing but luck. I made it in and he told me, somehow I was the first one he received. I can assure you there was no magic. On my end I simply clicked sent while using the GMAIL website and sitting on an open wireless connection at Panera Bread. I clicked the send at 00:00:01 (before the timer hit 0) on the atomic clock, as I am sure many other did. It's simply luck.
