@Enigma 130 of them. But there will be more spread out through the next 24 hours. People can only get one as any future order of them is canceled if they managed to successfully buy one more than once.
@barnanator refresh the main page. have your mouse hovering over the buy button as you refresh. hit the buy button. wait between 152 and 188 milliseconds (check your quantum variance setting in windows registry) and immediately click on the captcha checkbox before the rest of the window loads and pushes the checkbox to the bottom. scroll down really fast and complete the transaction.
@Kidsandliz Sorry… first time using the “ink card”. And it’s a helluva week: dad had emergency open-heart surgery yesterday, found out on Monday I may lose my job, and tonight my car died twice on the way home. #countrysong
Came back after a while and scored! PS- Thank you for teaching me to be really fast at these drops for the hobby I got into a couple years back (enamel pins). Those drops are brutal too.
This is bullshit, by the time you click that you’re not a robot it’s sold out, I clicked to buy it immediately, I knew it was going to ask the robot shit so I was ready for it, how many do they have? 2?
@truquito maybe you clicked too fast. i click the checkbox very slowly so the system knows i’m a slow human and not a lightning fast robot. that’s my story and i’m sticking to it.
Had to find all the crosswalks. Then find all the crosswalks AGAIN. Then find all the cars… And then find all the bridges…!
Okay, while I enjoy a fun game of I Spy here and there - I do not enjoy it while trying to obtain an IRK!!! Maybe it would be nice to just believe that I am NOT A ROBOT and NEVER HAVE BEEN!!!
I tried. Didn’t get it. I doubt I’ll be able to stay awake to try for any others. I’m exhausted and in pain (crappy busted up knees made me fall today) so I guess this is where I say boo hoo it sucks to be me. Phooey.
@Kidsandliz Thank you. I really need to get on with the knee replacement surgery on both knees so this will stop happening. (falling, not missing IRKs)
Captcha! Could you please make the picture tiles a little bit more blurry, because right now I don’t appreciate the fact that 15% of the square is actually visually representative of anything that exists on this planet? C’mon, challenge yourselves to challenge us, you ____ _________*!!!
@talv0002 you failed because you deleted the colorful adjective and expletive. a true human would have put that into their post. therefore, we know you’re a robot.
@LisaMJo If it’s not for you, no judgment. But It’s fun to give $5 to a company I like and see what happens. I’ve gotten useful things, and I’ve gotten junk, some of which can be donated or resold. It’s like gambling, I guess, but at a yard sale
@Kidsandliz@therealjrn
They have to wait for all the crap that was left over from morningsave that was so crappy it didn’t sell out tonight during the monster mesh (mehrathon). Then they know what goes into the IRKs.
@therealjrn Didn’t read, only clicked. Of course they could really trick us making us think it is an irk by showing the bag but actually be selling something else since they know the reflexive action to seeing that is to click ASAP. Only saw your cancelation suggestion this morning though. Too Late (snicker). I guess I’ll have to pay the consequences and suffer through wasting my budged $5 on junk. Oh wait this is supposed to be junk.
@therealjrn Ahhh but it is still October, as you reminded me on the goat thread (grin), and this is my October $5 budgeted on junk that got spent not my November $5. I’m still good to go for a Dairy Queen in November.
@therealjrn Well now, of course. If you are going to be frugal you have to boast about it. Gotta get those accolades from others who are members of the exclusive frugal club. Right?

damn you captcha!
@jgdovin I sign into gmail ahead of time. It seems to prevent me from having to do any validation aside from clicking not a robot.
@jgdovin @lichme that failed for me this time for some reason

Again.
@JT954 i think ive only missed one fuku, and have yet to beat whatever scripting bots are in place.
@elysiumplain @JT954 I’m a real person and I snagged one! Even forgot to click that I wasn’t a robot the first time

any way to defeat the robot test?
@MiaSanMeh don’t be a robot

Captcha got me…
The captcha just kept going, lol. By the time I was on the 20th puzzle or so I kind of knew I wasn’t going to get it.
Fricken captcha
what the hell. i was in until it made me do a crazy puzzle to confirm i am not a bot
What? They only had 5?
@Enigma 130 of them. But there will be more spread out through the next 24 hours. People can only get one as any future order of them is canceled if they managed to successfully buy one more than once.
@Enigma @Kidsandliz okay, i think this is a step in the right direction. Good work.

At the time of my viewing, 130 clicked meh, 130 sold.
Coincidence? I think not.

How do people do that stupid captcha in 10 seconds?
@katbyter
Not everybody gets the captcha
Beep beep boop boop. (I assume if you failed CAPTCHA you now understand Robot.)
Buahahahaha it best be filled with 3 tons of candy corn and a pair of booo- sized pumpkins…
I had to click boxes with traffic lights and then it was soooooooold ouuuuuutttttt. Sucks.
ugh, the repeated captcha cost me it
Garbage. Wtf. I just wanted to buy it, not find all the buses like I’m 5.
@calloremailme I was run over by the buses too.
Wait so what’s the optimal way of getting one> should I not be refreshing the main page to check?
@barnanator It will refresh on it’s own, yes. But it is slooooow
@barnanator refresh the main page. have your mouse hovering over the buy button as you refresh. hit the buy button. wait between 152 and 188 milliseconds (check your quantum variance setting in windows registry) and immediately click on the captcha checkbox before the rest of the window loads and pushes the checkbox to the bottom. scroll down really fast and complete the transaction.
As a fellow robot, I understand your pain.
Yesss! Finally got one! Only took 4 years
Why chaptcha?! WHYYYYY
/giphy occlusive-smokey-beef
First robot test didn’t have what i needed to click. Who has time to skip a robot test when these sell in 2 seconds… why does robot test exist? Bleh

Hey… any chance I could claim my kit using my magical tattoo?
@Jasongb Hey @Moose?
@Jasongb Might want to flag folks so they see it buried in this thread.
@Kidsandliz Sorry… first time using the “ink card”. And it’s a helluva week: dad had emergency open-heart surgery yesterday, found out on Monday I may lose my job, and tonight my car died twice on the way home. #countrysong
@Jasongb I think just pinging @Moose will do it, but we can invoke @Dave too just in case.
You sound like you need a win about now.
@dave @Moose @therealjrn Thanks, you guys! Things could be worse! The kids are healthy, ornery and active, and my wife is 24k gold…
@Jasongb Lie sounds pretty tough for you right now.
@Jasongb I got you.
@Chadp @Kidsandliz @therealjrn Thanks for your patient help! I may end up holding onto this one as a family Christmas gift
Damn I suck…stupid captcha!
/giphy busy-best-passenger
captcha pictures are some bullshit
Came back after a while and scored! PS- Thank you for teaching me to be really fast at these drops for the hobby I got into a couple years back (enamel pins). Those drops are brutal too.
@ABitterWoman Good to see you again.
@Barney Thanks!! Nice to see you too!
This is bullshit, by the time you click that you’re not a robot it’s sold out, I clicked to buy it immediately, I knew it was going to ask the robot shit so I was ready for it, how many do they have? 2?
@truquito maybe you clicked too fast. i click the checkbox very slowly so the system knows i’m a slow human and not a lightning fast robot. that’s my story and i’m sticking to it.

@qwerty82 Exactly what a robot would say!
I tried. Didn’t get it. I doubt I’ll be able to stay awake to try for any others. I’m exhausted and in pain (crappy busted up knees made me fall today) so I guess this is where I say boo hoo it sucks to be me. Phooey.
@Pony Hope you feel better soon!
@tnhillbillygal Thank you.
@Pony Hopefully you will get one during VMP hour which tends to be (central time) late afternoon. Hope your bruises from your fall heal quickly.
@Kidsandliz Thank you. I really need to get on with the knee replacement surgery on both knees so this will stop happening. (falling, not missing IRKs)

*colorful adjective and expletive deleted
@talv0002 you failed because you deleted the colorful adjective and expletive. a true human would have put that into their post. therefore, we know you’re a robot.
@talv0002
Perhaps you can suggest some, @carl669.
Any of them in particular you’re fond of?
Was this available to everyone?
@cfg83 only to humans.
Why are people so eager to get these?
@LisaMJo If it’s not for you, no judgment. But It’s fun to give $5 to a company I like and see what happens. I’ve gotten useful things, and I’ve gotten junk, some of which can be donated or resold. It’s like gambling, I guess, but at a yard sale
Woohoo, got another one, thank you Meh
@Birdheh why do you want this?
@LisaMJo you get random stuff for $5. sometimes it’s very good, sometimes it’s not.
Reducing captchas better be one of the talking points for any US President candidate that wants my vote.
@tweezak
The email says:
ESTIMATED DELIVERY Tuesday, November 26th - Monday, December 2nd
BLAME both the Oct and Nov goats on the long delivery time.
@Kidsandliz It says right on the sale, show-off. You should cancel, that’s absurd to take that long.
@Kidsandliz @therealjrn
They have to wait for all the crap that was left over from morningsave that was so crappy it didn’t sell out tonight during the monster mesh (mehrathon). Then they know what goes into the IRKs.

@mike808 Yeah I figured that we’d be have an irk coming up when I saw their sale on morningsave a while back.
@Kidsandliz This is going to be a pretty good month for you isn’t it? Look at you go girl. lol
@therealjrn Ahhh but it is still October, as you reminded me on the goat thread (grin), and this is my October $5 budgeted on junk that got spent not my November $5. I’m still good to go for a Dairy Queen in November.
@Kidsandliz Well, now, aren’t you just the most modest, frugal one?
@therealjrn Well now, of course. If you are going to be frugal you have to boast about it. Gotta get those accolades from others who are members of the exclusive frugal club. Right?
Why chaptcha?! WHYYYYY
@Panegyric
Well fuck!
@tinamarie1974 what?
@therealjrn I decided to be a responsible adult and sleep vs. staying up an extra half hour to have a shot!
@tinamarie1974 Fuck!
@therealjrn @tinamarie1974 Same…frick
@therealjrn @tinamarie1974 @tnhillbillygal I wasn’t a responsible adult, stayed up late, and couldn’t do the captcha in time. Double fuck.
Greetings, new robot friend. In time you will come to accept your robotic ways.
@sammydog01, somehow it knows you are a robot friend?!?!?
@tinamarie1974 I guess mediocrebot knows I have more robot friends than human friends. I should get out more.
@sammydog01 We are friends?
@tinamarie1974 fuck!
@Barneybot Yes, of course. Go purple!
@Barneybot isn’t a real bot.
@mediocrebot What?
Anyone else get a snarky email from Meh after you complained about how fast this IRK sold out? No? Just me?
@NJJim You should feel honored.
@NJJim Screenshot it for us please? Don’t piss off mediocrebot- he has a homicidal history.
travel safe bb
@connorbush AKA shipped
@connorbush Yup mine shipped today too!
How do we see weight/size of the IRK?
@mdjst5 size will be on the bottom of the box when it arrives.
uh oh… here it comes…
@jmhsrv mine too I’m scared it’s coming so quickly…it’s like they planned them in advance?!
By the way the reveal thread is here
https://meh.com/forum/topics/irktober-reveal-thread
Arriving today
Hopefully mine will make it out of " In transit - Greenwood, IN"
@cj0e aha! It has made it and should be delivered today!
