    Not really, bot/more people will break their network at exactly the time announced to be restocked, your chance will be likely thinner :)

    The bots are already scraping non-stop and it makes no difference at all, announcing a time would make humans have a greater chance because humans aren't paying attention to their screen all the time.

    Agreed. A human test is whats needed.

    But this takes much more effort for them to add it in. I don't know how much scalpers are making, but if it's significant then it's probably only a few minutes work to solve the captchas tbh.

    If fixed time is announced, 1000 people will line up vs at some random time, only 100 line up. At least at some random time, your chance and mine are higher :P

    Would making the specials be non-transferable for a while be helpful against bots?

    I could not pass the payment page despite running a script to get notified about restocking. Bots are too fast to beat. Now I have added money to my account for new inventory. Let us see if I can beat bots now.

    How did you add money? I couldn't find the spot even tho I thought I'd previously seen it.

    You need to create a ticket for the billing team. Also, they are giving $9 for every $60 to old customers.

    They will transfer the whole email account :D Captcha is probably the best way to fight bot now.

    @NDTN - Happy Anniversary

    @jbiloh @FAT32 @NDTN - With this in mind I don't think it is OK to spam LET like this. We would have all the bots in the world coming to spam LET forums for a change to get a prize. Sure, this would create exposure to provider, but... is this good for LET community as a whole?

    I don't know, it is not mine to decide, but I just thought to raise this small concern I have deep down into my pathetic soul.

    I have never gotten anything from greencloud but I think it's fairly easy to get something this time especially if you are running a script to check for restocks. Around 2-3 mins ago, I was manually refreshing and saw 9 stocks for NY and 4 stocks for san jose. I think you had a full minute to try to get the NY ones. The west coast and asian regions are probably quite difficult to get, however.

    Ok I have added captcha to the order process along with rate-limit. Hope that it will help people to grab some great deals.
