Bro Caps Therapy

I'm a loser

[Xowie]

OMG, forget it. I'm definitely not getting in...

WTH, my subject of my sent doesn't have CONUS in it. I had the thing pre-written. I am about to lose it.

I definitely wrote it. I reread the directions like 50 times.

That definitely happens. I mistyped the email in my first sale.

[cheesedgrate]

Not sure if I can even sleep anymore. Too much adrenaline.

[cphead]

 good luck to all ..

So he's pretty much just going to ignore mine eh? So sad right now...

First time doing a Brobot sale. My hopes definitely went down upon reading that they usually sell out within a few seconds. Hopefully since I tried for a few topre and mx my odds might increase of getting something!

This always happens to a few people… very disheartening. Chin up though! You don't know the outcome yet, and there will always be more sales.

I guess I'm lucky - my other half understands my obsession, and actually insisted I go into the computer room 10 minutes before the sale started.

This wait is going to kill me

My fingers are crossed, although my time was the same in the 420 sale and didn't get in.

That's super encouraging.

So early... will go to bed again. gn8

I am lucky to have a girl who is similar. She doesn't care what I'm into as long as it makes me happy. It is a little tough to explain liking keyboards and key caps though. So I just compare it to a new bag or shoes and she quickly grasps it. lol.

[Puddsy]

all i want is golden toad so im not mad that im a loser

[cmadrid]

I met my wife playing Magic the Gathering nearly 10 years ago.. she doesn't mind that I like keyboards, still gave me a look when she saw how stressed I was lol

[eth0s]

I can't believe I fell asleep.  I missed the sale.  I'm not joking.  I was watching TV and I fell asleep.  Woke up at 11:15 PM EST (9:15 PST).  Oh well.  I was waiting all day for that sale too.

[aicrono]

I took a nap earlier today just in case of that  )

[OnTheBrink]

Has anyone forgotten to put CONUS or INTL and got in?

I don't mean to be repetative but I can't believe this happened. I am SURE I put it there. I remember making sure of EVERYTHING. I am wondering if I loaded a different draft and accidentally sent that. Everything else is perfect though. It was also sent at exactly 11PM EST. Not a second later.

This happened to me last time. I swear, one of the reasons I am switching the Android is because of how low the ringer and alarms are on my iPhone for calendar alerts.

[madhias]

Oh my, i sent to the wrong mail server, it's too early... I sent to mur...@hotmail instead of @outlook

But i sent my mail 22 minutes later again. Better late than never!

[aicrono]

That's a bummer  (more for me though  )

[byker]

I am worried because mine says I sent it 9 seconds early, although I waited until the countdown hit 0

I've reread my email multiple times since you posted about messing up your email.. >_<

Damnit...I set up 3 alarms on my phone and I still missed it. Was trying to get all zeros.

Doesn't it not matter what your email client says unless yours is synced to the website? Cause mine says I was 10sec early, and I definitely was around the 0sec mark..

I recommend refreshing the timer page one or two times in the last minute or so to make sure that your javascript clock has not gotten out of sync with the server time.

[cheesedgrate]

Ok, 6.30 AM here. Adrenaline (probably, hopefully) low enough to get back to sleep again. Also all these posts about typos in the emails and javascript clocks are making me paranoid.

[bueller]

Decided to give this sale a miss, money is entirely too tight for any new purchases! Best of luck everyone

[lightsout714]

Are those "UMAD's" painted or DS?

That sucks.  I am sorry dude.  That is worse than trying and not getting in.  At least that way you know you gave it your best shot. 

[swill]

I don't think Bro paints anything.  I think if it is multi color, it is different plastic.  I could be wrong, but I doubt it...

I couldn't agree more. I can't pull myself away from my screen.

So my email should ideally be saying 8?

[swill]

This is my first time doing a Bro sale. When do we usually find out if we made it in or not?

P.S. My girl is looking at me like I'm crazy lol.

Last time some people got invoices very quickly.  In previous sales it has taken a little while.  I think Bro has a system down now, cause he seems to get through them in a pretty reasonable timeframe.

too much drinking?
I'm sorry this happened to you eth0s, I can tell from earlier posts that you are looking forward to this. Whatever happened to your alarm?

You never know.  It also depends on the traffic on the network and such, so you may get lucky.  Hope some packets get lost and your email service had to resend it.

Sent time isn't the same as received time when it comes to email headers. I sent my clack email 3 seconds (ie 4:19:57PM) before the 4/20 sale and got in.

Wow, 3 seconds? Mail client or webmail? Same provider as Clack mail account?

Knowing your ping to the destination is half the battle.

[User Was Banned]

Kinda wish he did it through the website as opposed to e-mail though so we could all see the post order.

Haha yep, I sent about 50 test emails to the hotmail servers and averaged the total response time. Either it worked really well or I'm really lucky haha

Different provider, I used Gmail so I could use their SMTP servers without needing to use webmail.

You are saving up for when Bro releases an Aussie flag V2.

Have you ever been apart of a Binge sale?

Haha yep. Although I'm more hoping for a standalone Ribbit sale. That only I know the time to

[byker]

Thanks for the support Bros! Waiting for my invoice! (Positive thoughts)  ) )

Yeah, and HipsterPunks did it that way as well.

I think he originally did.  I think it was either him or CC who took down GH during a sale. 

In all honesty, the technology serving the forum is not NEARLY robust enough to be able to hand the number of requests we are talking here.  Email is by far the most fair technology in that sense because it can at least handle the load.  It is not without its flaws, but at least its flaws are more predictable...

I GOT AN EMAIL!!!

Good luck everyone!!
