@sdcplano On the last page you had to scroll down a bit (at least on a 13" laptop) to see the buy button. Of course I clicked on that while it was still available (as @Pantheist posted one was available - time wise - after I had clicked on buy) and then never got an order confirmation… which is about par for the course. You have to admit though it was an entertaining way to fail to get one - better than click on a million store fronts and still fail to get one.
@craigthom I can’t stop watching that video… The driver took the time to do a k-turn… I would have run over that curb and executed a u-turn when facing that crap!
@jayman7227@haydesigner@cranky1950 Regardless of why it is being watched by some of you perverts people, she looks like she is having a lot of fun. That makes her fun to watch too.
@Pantheist I also just bought some other shit. Wife’s been having panic attacks, so I got her a stress puck thing, a floppy hat because she likes them, and a sugar bowl because why not?
That was one of the hardest ones to get. I almost lost my perfect streak.
The hardest part was when it said I earned the right to buy one, I didn’t know how to buy it. I went back to meh but the server crashed by that time. I didn’t see the simple buy button at the bottom of the video.
@Pantheist I bought both, It let me. Then after the dust settled, I clicked on the “More Info” button in my orders and read that it was more expensive and just the bag so I ended up canceling it.
@cengland0 I had no sound. I don’t know the problem was, but there was no sound on the videos. After the first one, with the multiple choice answers, I figured it out. Without sound.
There’s sound this morning. There was sound elsewhere, but there was no sound on the meh videos for me last night. (I still got lucky, I guess, got a Fuku.)
I got one… that doesn’t seem right. Now I’m questioning the legitimacy of either the order or the bag itself. If you stocked enough to give a fair chance to most, then it’s not a real fuko
@jsh139 It was only after it said that I had the right to buy one did I try. Thought that was the only way you could get it. Took me too long to find the real buy button and it was so large.
After the first question it’s simple to get to the end. Grabbed one. Second April Fools Fukobukoro in a row. I know it will be terrible. Says so every year, but I’m a sucker:)
Finally! Got the first question right on my phone and had to move over to my laptop to finish it off as i lost the ability to choose answer.
/giphy wonderful-luminous-cover
Wow, I’m surprised how easy this was!! Since it’s already sold out, just hovering over the options showed you which answer was correct!! Boom!! 15 minutes after too!
finally got 1 after all this time!!! yey!!! careful-relaxed-wax!
but i won’t be home when it arrives!!! will be so psyched to go home from my vacation!!!
That was fun. Didn’t work on mobile. Then didn’t work in chrome because of all my browser extensions. Then after disabling them all, somehow getting the questions right… peaceful-studious-shop
I don’t know what the hell I just did. I had a designated driver tonight, so I am prettyfuckingdrunk. I think I bought 2 fukos, a travel mug, and 2 moai mugs, but I could have hallucinated the whole thing. One thing I think I did was accidently hit the meh button, which I have refused to do for almost a year to preserve my perfect streak of 666 mehs. I now have 667, which is pretty fucking inexcusable. Can someone please delete my last meh, as it was totally unintentional. I need to stay at 666, as I am pure evil. Thanks. Oh, and this is the first time I have added to @carl669’s FUCK count, so you know I am serious. Please. Pretty please. Pretty please with cocaine on top… Thanks. @hollboll@woodhouse, @anybody, thanks.
I almost didn’t try because I can never get one anyway since they are all sold out. After getting two of the questions wrong and all three of the other options. Something happened…
@sammydog01 yeah, I got the first one right on my phone, and then I was confused since it just gave me the first morningsave.com page with the option to buy $3 stuff. I thought I actually had it wrong since I didn’t see a fuko… I kept refreshing the phone to click the other answers. By the time the laptop loaded up and I got to the end, I was probably 1 minute after the last one sold.
Ok I didn’t snag the actual bundle bag, but I got a bunch of stuff super cheap that I’ll like and a branded bag, and WHATEVER. I like it. That was kinda awesome even once I figured out the trick. Great job, I mean, uh, Meh, Meh.
Loaded on my phone… first thought: "wtf?"
Listen to Irk "… and it doesn’t work on mobile!"
Guess wrong on phone and it might have worked (I was able to click the first guess).
Mad dash in the house to get to a computer. Grab Chromebook. Meh 500 errors.
Finally get in and ace the quiz.
MINE IS SUCCESS.
/giphy fun-herbivorous-tail
Thanks, Meh! This was different and fun.
Question: Was the first video transparent at the beginning or was the page content laid into the background of the video? Cool effect either way.
@brhfl Thanks for the link. After I rubbed a couple of neurons together about it I kind of figured that’s how it had to be. It’s a slick effect, though.
@ruouttaurmind Yes there was a fuko after the first two morningsave pages. There should still be a diy bag for $1 more. Someone posted a spoiler link earlier in the forum but it’s probably been removed now.
Well meh done, meh - lmao. It must have taken you guys a long time to prep for this. After the diatribe about April 1 pranks yesterday, I knew either a fuko or something twisted must be ready to spring.
/giphy earnest-informative-dock
What an April fools low tech game. We had to pull out the Commodore 64 to play this one. LOL, this should go in the history books as a great prank. Next time, let’s do it in Fortran, Cobal or make it real fun and do it in binary.
@Achromatter - You know, for a few years I’ve been considering killing myself anyway, I think this may be the straw that broke the camel’s back. I’ve really fucking had it, fuck you all!!
Clever way of not having to adhere to the lame circuit breaker, and the VMP only sale. The main item might have sold out but there are still many other items for sale.
@todaresq Thanks. I must have missed it for that reason, as even though the buy button was active after making it through the videos, I didn’t get a confirmation number. I was about 13 minutes in it (tried /buy afterwards knowing that was likely disabled LOL) when I got to the buy button… I was dumb and started over several times until I realized I could just hit the back button, reclick the right answer as I worked my way though the wrong ones LOL
1st Fuko… finally going to be full of disappoint, and ready to help mediocre labs move to their new HQ by relieving their old HQ/warehouse of this Fukobukuro.
How did people still get theirs like 15 minutes ago? I checked late at like ~10 minutes past midnight and they were already sold out. I feel cheated. And no VMP holdback either. Damn it meh, too mediocre
@brhfl@epinsly@Nexar and there is nothing on the main page saying they held back any. Instead the buy button reads sold out rather than paused. I’d agree the odds are slim to none this will open up again in the morning.
@Nexar PS - the buy button may have been a bit buggy? I got through the videos, it was still available, clicked and it didn’t work (eg no confirmation number) yet some others were successful after I failed - or maybe I clicked just before it sold out, so did they and I lost they won? The twilight zone must have been involved… or a wrinkle in time perhaps? LOL
@BillLehecka random question - are you the creator of the Andy Polly Happy Fun Time/This Website Stinks/Mr. Tony Podcast formerly The Tony Kornheiser Radio Show website and message board?
@BillLehecka me too…but only after weighing whether I REALLY wanted to get out from the warm blankets! Stupid laptop decided to freeze on startup screen and then I had no clue on answer for last question, 3 back pages, 3 fast forwards… So people had plenty of time to get one of these…
@mike808 Well, considering it wasn’t even sold here, pretty damn sure /buy isn’t going to buy it here. It’s incredibly fucking annoying to scroll through the page and have to see all those /buys.
Kind of sentimental/annoying to see all the Eucopia stuff in the sale (see what you missed out on, everybody?), but the “Stuff Only a Fool Would Buy” certainly rings true.
/giphy noticeable-holistic-wind
What I learned from this is that I’ve really been slacking re: the videos and I will try to do better.
@mossygreen It took me three tries, guessing, to get it. The first two I got because they were fairly easy to guess. The third took three attempt. Still got one.
@medz is Jason gone? he asked me to send him an email regarding reimbursing funds to those who signed up for the full year of eucopia. email sent about three weeks ago and no reply from him yet.
@annwat Ha, I was going to ask you about that. He also mentioned anyone involved emailing him in his goodbye, which I did, and haven’t heard back either. I always assume that I did something wrong (it’s just so plausible). Anyway, he seems to be… flakier… I think might be the term, than one might have expected. But moving to a different continent is probably pretty distracting.
@mossygreen now that i know he’s moving (and not just next door), i’ll relax a bit as regards worrying that he hasn’t replied yet. i’m sure he’s rather preoccupied at this point. and given the fact that he did make the public reachout asking folks to contact him, i will assume that he does have something in the works or on his mind as regards reimbursement.
@sammydog01 thanks for the info, sammy! i am not as active as i prolly should be in paying attention to the forum posts. don’t think i even saw the post regarding his moving so i would never have been the wiser.
@mikibell I gotta say I thought I had no chance of getting one after messing up the first question twice but I still had fun. And I was shocked to get one after all. And I loved the bonus sales. Nice job guys!
@sammydog01 my husband said at 8 minutes after…they are probably sold out why are you still trying…my response was, because I have to at least finish what I started, regardless
Stupid me saw the diy frst and bought THAT…only to go back and re-read the page and buy the fuko too…waayyy past my bedtime!
Then you guys mentioned the squishy face and I had to find those!
Ok, which one of you bought all the Easter Island statuary posing as Tiki mugs? The only thing in that mix of Morningsave crap I was sad to see sold out.
Been with you Dbags since the beginning of Woot with 150 purchases. You sold out to Amazon and this site sucks. Its not enough to be a disappointment and a total let down to all the loyal wooters. You have to be complete jerks about it. Its not even funny. Ive given up on the deal of the day concept. I was truly your biggest fan. Now every day is just a bag of crap.
@jml326 I doubt it. On the real buy page (what you get to once you make it through the videos) it says sold out rather than paused. Also the main page doesn’t have the usual info about paused and when it is offered again.
@candiedisilvio1 It is sold out anyway. You have to work your way through 3 videos. Each one sends you to a new one. On the final one there is the buy button - except it says sold out.
Bravo meh, loved it… I took the advice and built my own. I ended up spending way more than $5 or $10 dollars… like way more… but I will have the satisfaction of knowing I did it my way.
I got my Fuko but I couldn’t tell if the bullet points are saying for $1 extra you will get a Fuko-like bag, or if that bag is just contained in the Fuko…confusing.
@Stallion if you got a Fuku, you will get the bag. If you didn’t get the Fuku, you can purchase just the bag for $1 more than the price of the Fuku that includes said bag.
@Stallion well it’s not so much a bag until you turn it into one…Could be a shirt or pillow case or whatever you want it to be. Dream big and start sewing.
@Stallion Meh is offering Do It Yourself Meh bags. Now you could’ve gone the old fashioned way by buying a $5 Fuko, or spend a dollar more and Meh will just send you a bag and have YOU fill the bag with YOUR junk. They’re basically taking out the middleman.
@BillLehecka Yuuuuup. This was more fun to go through with ultra-low expectations. Also, I got one. But even if I hadn’t, it didn’t feel like wasted time to the same degree. And the other items for sale were a nice touch.
As I write this, it’s 2:49 am. I am surrounded by the remnants of my enemies. The /buy armies fought long and hard - trying to outlast me with their sheer numbers and razor sharp focus on the task at hand. fools
With a warrior cry (a quiet one though, baby’s sleeping) of “I AM T-HUMPERCHICK, MOTHER OF @PUPPYCAT, MODERATOR OF MEH, DEFENDER OF THE NOT-SO-INNOCENT!” I dove into battle and quenched my weapon’s thirst for carnage and complete annihilation. The /buys have been defeated. The thread has been reclaimed. The people can go back to their lives of gloating and complaining about their win/loss of fuko glory.
All is well and right in the mehniverse.
(Seriously, there were like, 300 of those. I need a mass delete option.)
@Thumperchick Or perhaps there could be an option when a Fuko thread is started to block the posting of anyone posting just /buy. Might be something to look in to.
@BillLehecka Screw it. Thumperchick has to feel empowered about something. Besides saving money on H1B visa programmers, not automating saves moderator jobs.
@mike808 Usually, there aren’t enough of them to disrupt the thread and require intervention, so automating something that almost never happens is going to waste more time for the devs than it took me to clean up. Also, my time doesn’t cost them anything.
@Thumperchick First, a person’s time is always valuable. Working for free at a charity is called volunteering. Working for free at a for-profit corporation is a crime, and called slavery at best, or human trafficking at worst.
Especially if you’re a woman or identify as one. Do your male peers work for free? Don’t sell yourself short. #workingwomenmatter
Second, my position was //against// automation, and for you having to patrol the comments, burdened with slavishly removing the /buy comments during a fuko. In fact, I did my part to ensure you had the ability to demonstrate yout value to meh corporate leadership. I’ll even add some extras to pump your numbers.
Is there a snark tag? Or is that redundantly dundant , given this is meh?
got myself both a Tiki mug (while I was foolishly trying to score a Fuko on my mobile)
/giphy universal-visible-knee
Then fired up the desktop, flew through the first two questions, but think I tried all other options before getting the right one. But still got one!
/giphy knowledgeable-renowned-table
The game was fun. When I got to the end I didn’t realize that the fuko was right there on the page to buy. I was confused. Took me a minute to figure out I had to scroll down the page a little to get to the link. I need more vertical resolution I guess
took me way longer than usual to figure out what was going on. It is obvious I was not alone
observant-lucid-panther did not get purchased until 6 minutes after the hour. Did I get the last one, I dunno. Just know the captcha one was much much easier.
I give this a Meh. This makes me want to come to this site less. It’s exciting in theory, but when you don’t get to check Meh until the morning, it’s pretty bloody useless. What they should do is have it so clicking buy gives you a random chance to be able to buy, one per account. Maybe they could send out an email to people who win, so they can complete the transaction. That way people who aren’t checking Meh in the middle of the night or using bots to buy them have a chance to get one. The way it’s set up now, it’s pretty much worthless to me. So Meh on you.
So VMP will not get a shot at this today at 4 pm? Also, if you got 3 questions right you can do buy multiple fukos? Sucks that I had to try to access this on my phone last night while at the gym and could not. Oh well, not sure why I am a VMP member. Rethinking it…oh wait free shipping…nm, carry on.
@Bluedragon07 how did you do that? The video said that you could not and I tried multiple times…I was signed on in time. It took forever to navigate the website and I had no idea what was going on with the different links. It did actually take me to the next morning save page once, but still it was hard to tell what was happening and I didn’t realize there was a second video or a third at that point. Plus, it just seemed like that was the prize getting to that website and buying the various items there. Oh well…
@michaelgj2002 My phone was fine with the first video but after that I checked “request desktop site” and that allowed me to hit the links in the video. The first video said there was going to be three questions so I figured there was a video on each page until you got to the fuku one.
Man, I thought I was a lock for this one too. Gave my Wife a card for our Anniversary yesterday (16th) and literally wrote the attached. Still - DENIED!! !
I was away from my computer since last night. If only I didn’t have plans for today… I rocked these questions once I did it. Oh well. Everyone enjoy your fukos!
Figures. Won my first one after so many times trying. But then again, this one came from a test of skill, and not a random chance as an effect of the server choosing which requests to process after getting hundreds of them every millisecond.
This is how it should always have been done.
I bought a bunch of the $3 crap too. Wish I could buy more stickers, though. Can you guys make more stickers?
Anyone else anxiously go to check the status on your fuko order to only have a mini freakout not seeing it in your order history until you remembered it was an order on morningsave? no, just me? lol.
@dvsmith I’m not sure whether to offer condolences or make a snarky remark about receiving a pile of broken things on the anniversary of your broken marriage. Either way - sorry about your… all of the things.
@Pantheist just a long, slow, decline. Take this to heart: good communication skills and healthy emotional intimacy are the keys to a happy, long-lasting marriage, kids.

@sdcplano you posted this 5 minutes before I managed to get one.
@sdcplano - Me too. never got a single effing one, FU!!!
@sdcplano On the last page you had to scroll down a bit (at least on a 13" laptop) to see the buy button. Of course I clicked on that while it was still available (as @Pantheist posted one was available - time wise - after I had clicked on buy) and then never got an order confirmation… which is about par for the course.

@Pantheist and some bamboo plates because I’m drunk.
That was one of the hardest ones to get. I almost lost my perfect streak.
The hardest part was when it said I earned the right to buy one, I didn’t know how to buy it. I went back to meh but the server crashed by that time. I didn’t see the simple buy button at the bottom of the video.

There’s no way that /buy command works for this.

@thardesty or open it on Youtube, skip to the right spot, try the options, etc.
@tedder42 I was in the process of doing that, but then my wifi shat the bed… by the time my hotspot was up and running, all sold out
@tedder42 That’s what I did after I tried the first question. I confess I don’t always watch the videos, so I didn’t know the answers.

Lost track of time and my cuckoo clock went off a couple minutes late but somehow I got one!

Was anyone else worried they weren’t going to be able to click Meh and break their streak?
@Tin_Foil It wasn’t easy to make sure people could still click Meh, but I realized people would riot if I didn’t figure out some way to allow that.
@dave - Great job, that could have been ugly!

Yeah, I got one via the game show. THANK YOU MEH.COM / MORNINGSAVE.COM
Got my order in and still not sure I did it right. And how is there no Harambe Video?

@tightwad And some Backstreet Boys putting it out for Harambe.

Wow, I’m surprised how easy this was!! Since it’s already sold out, just hovering over the options showed you which answer was correct!! Boom!! 15 minutes after too!

Anyone else notice that the site flipped before 12:00am? It was still 11:59pm for me and my laptop’s clock is very accurate.
@jsh139 Yep, I set an earlier alarm to be safe and got the video when I refreshed a couple seconds after 10:59 Central
@jsh139
The intro started playing 1 min early. the fuku went up on time.
@duodec @f00l I wonder if it was intentional
finally got 1 after all this time!!! yey!!! careful-relaxed-wax!
but i won’t be home when it arrives!!! will be so psyched to go home from my vacation!!!

I don’t know what the hell I just did. I had a designated driver tonight, so I am prettyfuckingdrunk. I think I bought 2 fukos, a travel mug, and 2 moai mugs, but I could have hallucinated the whole thing. One thing I think I did was accidently hit the meh button, which I have refused to do for almost a year to preserve my perfect streak of 666 mehs. I now have 667, which is pretty fucking inexcusable. Can someone please delete my last meh, as it was totally unintentional. I need to stay at 666, as I am pure evil. Thanks. Oh, and this is the first time I have added to @carl669’s FUCK count, so you know I am serious. Please. Pretty please. Pretty please with cocaine on top… Thanks. @hollboll @woodhouse, @anybody, thanks.
@Trillian dude! you needed a designated meh’er.
@Trillian No, you call yourself a “pure evil”, but you are pleading here like a little bitch. You don’t deserve the 666. And don’t tag me anymore.
@Trillian let us consult the mehcronomicon.
“Just as the missed click of meh may not be mulliganed, neither shall the unintended click. Cause face it, ya done fucked up. So say we all.”
@Trillian 667 is more evil. It’s one more evil.
@anybody That’s Ms. Bitch to you, asshole.
@Trillian miss you
@curtise Awww, thanks!

I almost didn’t try because I can never get one anyway since they are all sold out. After getting two of the questions wrong and all three of the other options. Something happened…

@butterflys Woohoo!
yep… definitely didn’t work on mobile devices. Had to get the laptop out just to be sold out.

@RiotDemon -
@RiotDemon No! And you just watched all the videos! I figured you would be a shoe-in.
@sammydog01 yeah, I got the first one right on my phone, and then I was confused since it just gave me the first morningsave.com page with the option to buy $3 stuff. I thought I actually had it wrong since I didn’t see a fuko… I kept refreshing the phone to click the other answers. By the time the laptop loaded up and I got to the end, I was probably 1 minute after the last one sold.

Says sold out. I wonder if they will be available again at 8am like usual, since this one is unusual…

Thanks, Meh! This was different and fun.
Question: Was the first video transparent at the beginning or was the page content laid into the background of the video? Cool effect either way.
@djslack It’s in the video.
@djslack So… was there an actual Fuk, or was all that morningsave crap the “prize”? In a hotel with nothing but my phone and iPad.
@brhfl Thanks for the link. After I rubbed a couple of neurons together about it I kind of figured that’s how it had to be. It’s a slick effect, though.
@ruouttaurmind thanks same question
@ruouttaurmind there was an actual fuk.
@ruouttaurmind Yes there was a fuko after the first two morningsave pages. There should still be a diy bag for $1 more. Someone posted a spoiler link earlier in the forum but it’s probably been removed now.
@djslack Isn’t that DIY bag just a bag and doesn’t contain any Fuko crap?
@brandon Answered. There WAS an actual Fuk, but inaccessible by mobile devices (as Irk said). Also, sold out now.
@djslack I blame @ruouttaurmind for daring to travel (for the very first time ever) without a laptop. SMH.
“Well, I really should be able to do everything I need on the iPad…”
/giphy never again
@BillLehecka As I understand it, yes. Just a diy bag.
Well meh done, meh - lmao. It must have taken you guys a long time to prep for this. After the diatribe about April 1 pranks yesterday, I knew either a fuko or something twisted must be ready to spring.
/giphy earnest-informative-dock
I am angered, amused, and I just bought what is almost certainly a garbage bag and a sticker for $6. Well played, meh…
What an April fools low tech game. We had to pull out the Commodore 64 to play this one. LOL, this should go in the history books as a great prank. Next time, let’s do it in Fortran, Cobal or make it real fun and do it in binary.
@goudaman40 +1 or 0, I guess.
Hey guys is this where we complain about the game not working on mobile once it moved over to morningsave?
@Ignorant That is why I missed out
@nalesean yeah me too. No biggie, I’ve gotten enough of them, but would’ve been nice to have the whole game work on moblie.

@Achromatter You should consider yourself one of the lucky ones then. Those Fuko bags are real crap anyway.
I bought the bag, cuz you know what, why not. No fuko for me!
Clever way of not having to adhere to the lame circuit breaker, and the VMP only sale. The main item might have sold out but there are still many other items for sale.
@Ignorant Including the bag. Way to go guys!
/giphy youthful-restorative-rain
Well that blows. The only thing clicking the video did in Firefox was pause/start. By the time I found IE and got to the end, it was sold out.
So how long did it take for this to sell out?
@Kidsandliz About 15 minutes
@todaresq Thanks. I must have missed it for that reason, as even though the buy button was active after making it through the videos, I didn’t get a confirmation number. I was about 13 minutes in it (tried /buy afterwards knowing that was likely disabled LOL) when I got to the buy button… I was dumb and started over several times until I realized I could just hit the back button, reclick the right answer as I worked my way though the wrong ones LOL

How did people still get theirs like 15 minutes ago? I checked late at like ~10 minutes past midnight and they were already sold out. I feel cheated. And no VMP holdback either. Damn it meh, too mediocre
@Nexar they promised vmp holdback every day so if they don’t offer it again today that would be garbage
@epinsly I’m wondering if there won’t be this time because the actual Fuko was thru Morningsave…
@brhfl @epinsly @Nexar and there is nothing on the main page saying they held back any. Instead the buy button reads sold out rather than paused. I’d agree the odds are slim to none this will open up again in the morning.
@brhfl I think you’re right.
@Nexar PS - the buy button may have been a bit buggy? I got through the videos, it was still available, clicked and it didn’t work (eg no confirmation number) yet some others were successful after I failed - or maybe I clicked just before it sold out, so did they and I lost they won? The twilight zone must have been involved… or a wrinkle in time perhaps? LOL

@BillLehecka no arguments here.
I see today is the “screw you guys on mobile” edition of the Fuku.
@lowlypeon I started on mobile, then switched up to the laptop and scored it. What fun!
@BillLehecka I tried the same but took too long. Broke my streak, ah well.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@BillLehecka same here.
@BillLehecka me too…but only after weighing whether I REALLY wanted to get out from the warm blankets! Stupid laptop decided to freeze on startup screen and then I had no clue on answer for last question, 3 back pages, 3 fast forwards… So people had plenty of time to get one of these…

Hey guys and gals, that buy crap won’t work. You’re wasting your time. So irritating.
Also, very cool that since I’m a grandfathered in VMP, my Fuko was $0.50 off.
BTW, I’m guessing buy isn’t working because technically, there isn’t a product to buy on meh.com… It was sent to morningsave.com.
@BillLehecka I figured it wouldn’t work, but worth a try, haha.
@BillLehecka bath?
@BillLehecka /buy
@BillLehecka the /buy command is designed to not work on fuko.
To all the folks bitching about the /buy not working.
You know what I can guarantee doesn’t work? NOT trying it.

@mike808 Well, considering it wasn’t even sold here, pretty damn sure /buy isn’t going to buy it here. It’s incredibly fucking annoying to scroll through the page and have to see all those /buys.
So much for vmp benefits…
@tehtruth https://meh.com/vmp/cancel
@tehtruth I got it for 10% off! $4.50 and free shipping. I call that a VMP benefit.
So, wait - is it really sold out? Because I’ve been playing the stupid game since 11:01 and I keep seeing people say they got one.
@caver2130 Yes, really sold out.
@caver2130 It says sold out on the morningstar page you eventually get to. Has for twenty or thirty minutes at least
@caver2130 That’s because of… reasons. I bought mine and took about 10 minutes to post here.
@caver2130 it’s a little known fact but people lie.
@nalesean Awesome, thanks. lol

What I learned from this is that I’ve really been slacking re: the videos and I will try to do better.
@mossygreen I think I gave my cake server away in an exchange.
@mossygreen Part of Toon’s severance package.
@mossygreen It took me three tries, guessing, to get it. The first two I got because they were fairly easy to guess. The third took three attempt. Still got one.
@sammydog01 I never used my cake server and offered it up as part of a baking package for a fundraising auction.
@medz is Jason gone? he asked me to send him an email regarding reimbursing funds to those who signed up for the full year of eucopia. email sent about three weeks ago and no reply from him yet.
@annwat He left the country- Australia I think.
https://meh.com/forum/topics/gdays-of-our-lives-im-moving-to-australia
@annwat Ha, I was going to ask you about that. He also mentioned anyone involved emailing him in his goodbye, which I did, and haven’t heard back either. I always assume that I did something wrong (it’s just so plausible). Anyway, he seems to be… flakier… I think might be the term, than one might have expected. But moving to a different continent is probably pretty distracting.
@mossygreen He’s waiting for the cash he got selling his inventory to Meh. They should have charged more for those Tikis.
@sammydog01 Who could have known?
@mossygreen now that i know he’s moving (and not just next door), i’ll relax a bit as regards worrying that he hasn’t replied yet. i’m sure he’s rather preoccupied at this point. and given the fact that he did make the public reachout asking folks to contact him, i will assume that he does have something in the works or on his mind as regards reimbursement.
@sammydog01 thanks for the info, sammy! i am not as active as i prolly should be in paying attention to the forum posts. don’t think i even saw the post regarding his moving so i would never have been the wiser.
Nicely done @shawn and team…guess I charged my phone for nothing!
Got some great floppy hats, too!
@mikibell Hats are $15 on the regular site so maybe really nice? Or not.
@sammydog01 Think the hats were 3 for 15 on the reg
@unlvswezel Oops didn’t notice it was three. Thanks.
@mikibell I gotta say I thought I had no chance of getting one after messing up the first question twice but I still had fun. And I was shocked to get one after all. And I loved the bonus sales. Nice job guys!
@sammydog01 my husband said at 8 minutes after…they are probably sold out why are you still trying…my response was, because I have to at least finish what I started, regardless
Stupid me saw the diy frst and bought THAT…only to go back and re-read the page and buy the fuko too…waayyy past my bedtime!

Been with you Dbags since the beginning of Woot with 150 purchases. You sold out to Amazon and this site sucks. Its not enough to be a disappointment and a total let down to all the loyal wooters. You have to be complete jerks about it. Its not even funny. Ive given up on the deal of the day concept. I was truly your biggest fan. Now every day is just a bag of crap.

will there be stock at 8AM est? and again at 4PM EST?
@jml326 I doubt it. On the real buy page (what you get to once you make it through the videos) it says sold out rather than paused. Also the main page doesn’t have the usual info about paused and when it is offered again.
Okay I must be a numb nut. I can’t figure out how to get to the purchase page…sigh
@candiedisilvio1 It is sold out anyway. You have to work your way through 3 videos. Each one sends you to a new one. On the final one there is the buy button - except it says sold out.
@candiedisilvio1 you can’t play from a mobile device and it helps to have your volume on.

I got my Fuko but I couldn’t tell if the bullet points are saying for $1 extra you will get a Fuko-like bag, or if that bag is just contained in the Fuko…confusing.
@Stallion if you got a Fuku, you will get the bag. If you didn’t get the Fuku, you can purchase just the bag for $1 more than the price of the Fuku that includes said bag.
@Ignorant WTF even is that bag? lol
@Stallion well it’s not so much a bag until you turn it into one…Could be a shirt or pillow case or whatever you want it to be. Dream big and start sewing.
@Stallion a diy bag…make your own…
@Stallion Meh is offering Do It Yourself Meh bags. Now you could’ve gone the old fashioned way by buying a $5 Fuko, or spend a dollar more and Meh will just send you a bag and have YOU fill the bag with YOUR junk. They’re basically taking out the middleman.

@BillLehecka Yuuuuup. This was more fun to go through with ultra-low expectations. Also, I got one. But even if I hadn’t, it didn’t feel like wasted time to the same degree. And the other items for sale were a nice touch.

As I write this, it’s 2:49 am. I am surrounded by the remnants of my enemies. The /buy armies fought long and hard - trying to outlast me with their sheer numbers and razor sharp focus on the task at hand. fools
With a warrior cry (a quiet one though, baby’s sleeping) of “I AM T-HUMPERCHICK, MOTHER OF @PUPPYCAT, MODERATOR OF MEH, DEFENDER OF THE NOT-SO-INNOCENT!” I dove into battle and quenched my weapon’s thirst for carnage and complete annihilation. The /buys have been defeated. The thread has been reclaimed. The people can go back to their lives of gloating and complaining about their win/loss of fuko glory.
All is well and right in the mehniverse.
(Seriously, there were like, 300 of those. I need a mass delete option.)
@Thumperchick Or perhaps there could be an option when a Fuko thread is started to block the posting of anyone posting just /buy. Might be something to look in to.
@BillLehecka Screw it. Thumperchick has to feel empowered about something. Besides saving money on H1B visa programmers, not automating saves moderator jobs.
@mike808 Usually, there aren’t enough of them to disrupt the thread and require intervention, so automating something that almost never happens is going to waste more time for the devs than it took me to clean up. Also, my time doesn’t cost them anything.
@Thumperchick How about checkboxes?
@Thumperchick First, a person’s time is always valuable. Working for free at a charity is called volunteering. Working for free at a for-profit corporation is a crime, and called slavery at best, or human trafficking at worst.
Especially if you’re a woman or identify as one. Do your male peers work for free? Don’t sell yourself short. #workingwomenmatter
Second, my position was //against// automation, and for you having to patrol the comments, burdened with slavishly removing the /buy comments during a fuko. In fact, I did my part to ensure you had the ability to demonstrate yout value to meh corporate leadership. I’ll even add some extras to pump your numbers.
Is there a snark tag? Or is that redundantly dundant , given this is meh?
Well thanks for making this a mobile friendly experience.
@Skylord123 Indeed. Also, bummed because there is apparently no circuit-breaker due to the morningsave shenanigans.
@hanzov69 I would guess that most people that check meh use their phone. Whoever implemented this should be reminded of that.
@Skylord123 I would think, based on some of the comments, some would say “shot”. (grin)
got myself both a Tiki mug (while I was foolishly trying to score a Fuko on my mobile)

The game was fun. When I got to the end I didn’t realize that the fuko was right there on the page to buy. I was confused. Took me a minute to figure out I had to scroll down the page a little to get to the link. I need more vertical resolution I guess
@jsh139 You’re not alone. Same problem here.

I didn’t get an email, I just wanted to be one of the cool kids.

took me way longer than usual to figure out what was going on. It is obvious I was not alone
observant-lucid-panther did not get purchased until 6 minutes after the hour. Did I get the last one, I dunno. Just know the captcha one was much much easier.

@rprussell Sorry, you can’t buy this with the

command.@mediocrebot Can I buy with any other command?
@marcee When you see the “Buy it!” button, click it. Easy.
@marcee you could hang out at the other place for some crappy chances today…just sayin. sometimes, links are even posted in that one place

@pyudin Sorry, you can’t buy this with the
/buy
command.I give this a Meh. This makes me want to come to this site less. It’s exciting in theory, but when you don’t get to check Meh until the morning, it’s pretty bloody useless. What they should do is have it so clicking buy gives you a random chance to be able to buy, one per account. Maybe they could send out an email to people who win, so they can complete the transaction. That way people who aren’t checking Meh in the middle of the night or using bots to buy them have a chance to get one. The way it’s set up now, it’s pretty much worthless to me. So Meh on you.
@jefeweiss They always have a fuku/fuko on April 1st.
@jefeweiss I don’t see how a bot could have purchased this one. The actual purchase part wasn’t even on Meh.
@peaceetc I agree. The bots were completely taken of the equation this time. Actually I enjoyed the adventure.

Still flawless
So VMP will not get a shot at this today at 4 pm? Also, if you got 3 questions right you can do buy multiple fukos? Sucks that I had to try to access this on my phone last night while at the gym and could not. Oh well, not sure why I am a VMP member. Rethinking it…oh wait free shipping…nm, carry on.
@michaelgj2002 No multiples allowed but VMP also got you $.50 off since it was Morningsave. Every dime counts, right?
@sammydog01 By why wouldn’t we be able to get the usual 4 pm deal for Fuko. That doesn’t seem fair.
@michaelgj2002 thinking meh is fair:
@carl669 uh-huh.
@michaelgj2002 because it wasn’t for sale on meh.
Could you send all of the VMP members a fuko just for being LOyaL?
@michaelgj2002 I think the goal here is to get us to drop. LOL
@Kidsandliz Meh.
How come VMP members get special treatment - but Kickstarters don’t?
@marcee because vmp is ongoing payment.
/image “What have you done for me lately”
@marcee @pantheist How come Kickstarter members who’ve been VMP subscribers since day zero don’t get special treatment?
/giphy life is unfair
Got mine on my phone, screw you Irk!
@Bluedragon07 how did you do that? The video said that you could not and I tried multiple times…I was signed on in time. It took forever to navigate the website and I had no idea what was going on with the different links. It did actually take me to the next morning save page once, but still it was hard to tell what was happening and I didn’t realize there was a second video or a third at that point. Plus, it just seemed like that was the prize getting to that website and buying the various items there. Oh well…
@michaelgj2002 My phone was fine with the first video but after that I checked “request desktop site” and that allowed me to hit the links in the video. The first video said there was going to be three questions so I figured there was a video on each page until you got to the fuku one.
@Bluedragon07 where did you find the view desktop? Thanks
@candiedisilvio1 dots in top right on chrome browser
No small reserve of Fukos at 4 pm today for VMP members…oh well…
@michaelgj2002 It’s not like we pay extra for that privilege… oh, wait…
Got one last night. Nice!
tireless-rewarding-steak
@daveinwarsh That looks delicious
Gotta say Meh I LOVE the way this fuko went. I enjoyed this adventure. Please do more in the format in the future.

@candiedisilvio1 Sorry, you can’t buy this with the

command.Man, I thought I was a lock for this one too. Gave my Wife a card for our Anniversary yesterday (16th) and literally wrote the attached. Still - DENIED!! !
@MrHappypants Outside, cause I though it was cute.
Even though I wasn’t on the internet today due to religious reasons and had absolutely no shot at the Fuko, I still had fun with the videos.
Of course though, once I saw the DIY bag I frowned slightly.
Been looking for a drawstring bag, and I like the material which these are made out of.
Edit: Apparently it’s probably not even a drawstring bag.
@someRiverNoise pssst… it is still today, but I won’t tell your deity if you don’t.
@thismyusername
It’s complicated to explain.
But thanks
/giphy excited-vibrant-alpaca
I was away from my computer since last night. If only I didn’t have plans for today… I rocked these questions once I did it. Oh well. Everyone enjoy your fukos!
@ninjaemilee
You mean we weren’t supposed to hold the cursor over each of the videos until it showed a link other than Youtube?
@someRiverNoise So you got one doing that? (You talking about holding it over the 4 choices?)
@Kidsandliz
No I didn’t.
Figures. Won my first one after so many times trying. But then again, this one came from a test of skill, and not a random chance as an effect of the server choosing which requests to process after getting hundreds of them every millisecond.
This is how it should always have been done.
I bought a bunch of the $3 crap too. Wish I could buy more stickers, though. Can you guys make more stickers?
Anyone else anxiously go to check the status on your fuko order to only have a mini freakout not seeing it in your order history until you remembered it was an order on morningsave? no, just me? lol.
@scilynt Been there, done that
I got my first Fukubukuro and my marriage fell apart… all in the same day (coincidence, not causation)… and the delivery estimate is my anniversary.
Meh, indeed.
/giphy learned-tranquil-sidewalk
@dvsmith So, seeing as you brought it up, can we hear the story?
@dvsmith I’m not sure whether to offer condolences or make a snarky remark about receiving a pile of broken things on the anniversary of your broken marriage. Either way - sorry about your… all of the things.
@Pantheist just a long, slow, decline. Take this to heart: good communication skills and healthy emotional intimacy are the keys to a happy, long-lasting marriage, kids.
