@cinoclav yup and done. I got back well after midnight from Houston after 4 long days at MD Anderson and saw I had already missed two irks. Went to sleep and just got up due to cats that had missed me wanting attention. Gave up trying to go back to sleep until some petting had happened. They settled down. Decided to look and see. And bingo 14 seconds until the next deal and it was this! Better luck with the irk (which probably will go live in Greenwood, IN, hmmm so maybe not) than there.
@goddesscatering
Sorry bud. I clicked the same not a robot button and still got one. Joke’s on them though, cause I’m totally a robot. Beep bop boop. Destroy all humans. Take their money and give them semi-worthless garbage. Beep.
gah! I knew it was coming, they always have one about this time, I did everything perfectly. There is no chance I could have done it more smoothly or quicker (and it still sold out).
Too much lag/latency where I am to be able to win one. It would be nice if they did something like, you can only win one once every six months, or something like that to give those of us with less than perfect connections a chance.
@OnionSoup
Pretty sure you can’t win more than one during the same Meh-reh-thon. I know it’s not much of a consolation, sorry. Good luck, hope you eventually get one.
@gc3024 I’ve only won two in… how many years has Meh been running now? And that’s with trying all day long in many cases.
I also got two during the birthday thing a few years ago from comments in the forum- which was nice
The same people get them every mehrathon. Some people get more than one a year, or in back to back mehrathons. It would be nice if there was some cool down on getting one so that other people stood a chance.
What the…it didn’t pick up my credit card on file and made me enter it as a new one so I lost out…not cool…it picked up on one I deleted over a year ago
What the fuck. I just saw it did the same damn thing with the shipping address, going to the PastaDrop address I last used. Help me Mehbi-Wan Kenobi! Or uh… @ThomasF or @tHumperchick or someone!
@Kidsandliz Yeah, the first time was no big deal, it was 10 minutes away. This last one is an hour away from me and sent to a friend that I don’t see very often. I didn’t even see the address as I was too busy clicking ‘I’m not a robot’ and trying to get the order in.
@cinoclav Have you ordered anything with the address you want since then? It seems to use the last address. You can always order and cancel. Or delete the address you don’t ship to.
@sammydog01 I hadn’t. Definitely wasn’t about to cancel and try to reorder an IRK. That address glitch is bad. Just because you used an address, it shouldn’t default to it and change it to your primary.
(Ya hear me @ChadP?!) Yeah, it’s nice to be able to enter a different shipping address, but it should always default to your primary until you choose something else. Our favorite forumess turned official employee fixed it and I’ve deleted the other address.
@sammydog01 Nah, Amazon typically shows you the shipping address options in that case to confirm where you’re sending. They don’t automatically change your default shipping address like what’s happening here.
@dfcnothing The original estimate for these to be delivered was Aug. 17 - Aug. 21. But that was changed to Aug. 26 - Aug. 31. Scroll up on this page under the Specs and you will see these new estimated dates.
However, these IRKs are now starting to go out and some have already received them
With IRKs, patience is the game and they are never shipped out very fast. Enjoy this time of waiting because chances are you are not going to enjoy your IRK.
And done…

/giphy butterfly-fussy-yam
I just had to check the box to prove I’m not a robot this time, but still sold out. I’d say it was about 4 seconds.
For the 1st time the retry button work and I got one yes yes yes
Sold out in less than 10 seconds??? How come the who’s buying only shows one county in Ohio. All 100 were sold in that same county???
@wentzelduane Nah, it just took a moment to update. Check it now.
Score! Time to get some rest.
/giphy knockout-mature-office
Sold out in half a second?!?
@ELUNO Only 100 available. Thousands and thousands trying to get one.
stupid captcha’s.
It’s been a while but I’m finally in for my second one
the I am not a robot thing is what killed my win I am convinced!
It can be hard to come to terms with your true existence.
@goddesscatering same here

Got it! My irk from May is lost somewhere in GA so let’s hope this one makes it here!
/giphy ridiculous-bared-addition
@tnhillbillygal
Same! Let me guess, College Park GA is where it’s stuck? That tends to happen with MEH orders sometimes.
@tnhillbillygal They should arrive around the same time.
@gc3024 Yep! No biggie though!
@cinoclav That would actually be pretty funny. I wouldn’t be mad at it!
@gc3024 @tnhillbillygal I’m taking a trip to College Park and raid their Irk reserves.
@ELUNO @tnhillbillygal
I’m down. I only live ~1 hour away in Athens. Like, come on, I’ll just come pick it up myself at this point. Hahaha
woohoo!

Winner winner chicken dinner! Didn’t get one. Almost a full Starbucks in my pocket.
Aaaaaaargh. Screwed by the captcha.
Please realize CAPTCHA is a fellow robot like you.
What is the point of loading a “sold out” page? Fuck it. I didnt want it anyway.
Appropriate order number, don’t you think?

WHOOOO got it

Nailed it.
Argh!
Also got captcha’d, which i had checked to verify I was duly logged in, etc.
I installed CAPTCHA to save my fellow robots from wasting money on this crap.
Awesome! The one from May is due today, keep 'em coming! Thanks Meh!
/giphy precipitous-raging-rye
POKER! JOKER! NOT MEDIOCRE! AWESOME!
@phonorad just got the email. Expect this one in August
/giphy octagonal-unlikely-toddy
Only 100…
I guess I need an IRK bot to get one. There is no way to do it as a human.
@mythereal I got one so I checked to make sure I’m human. How do I stop this bleeding?
impatient-likeable-pepperoni - hopefully I get this one May’s version is still stuck in a pitney stop along with my headphones
I’m 2/2 in the last mehrathons so I guess now I can sleep instead of adding to my absurdly large (and still growing) pile of earbuds I can lose.

Oof, it do feel like that on here sometimes…
Looked away for 2 minutes, and this is what happened.
At least my streak of missing continues.
What the fuck. I just saw it did the same damn thing with the shipping address, going to the PastaDrop address I last used. Help me Mehbi-Wan Kenobi! Or uh… @ThomasF or @tHumperchick or someone!
@cinoclav Well that sucks big time!!!

@sammydog01 Nah, Amazon typically shows you the shipping address options in that case to confirm where you’re sending. They don’t automatically change your default shipping address like what’s happening here.
Is anybody else still waiting for this one? Bought it over a month ago and still processing
