I was there on time and actually was less than 10 posts after they stopped counting to the first "100", the browser kept crashing for me so i was worried i would not post at all... saw people saying afterwards who get them they were on mobile.
 
well now i learned to not use facebook in the browser... :/ i will not miss them next time though

I was on mobile near the beach, and I just feel going through cell towers really varies the experience, as it looked like I was the first one that posted, but around the world I got counted well into the process (not even close to first). It could have been that each "time" for everyone was off just enough, plus Facebook may not post at exact times (taking time to post certain posts from certain parts of the world through their own specific ways).

Same here... But missed for 2 seconds :frowning2:
Just a couple of positions out of top 100.

I guess there were 100+ people posting at the same split second, so it was just a matter of luck with FB posting algorithm. Let's try again next time.:cool:

I have a feeling bot is being used lol

 
As someone who did it by hand with a clock I feel extremely offended

 I was waiting in front of my laptop for half an hour with the fastest internet connection I could find...
 
1 Candy for me because I thought I'd leave some for other people!

I also got in on the candy fun and got 2. It was kinda fun and intense being awake in the middle of the night on a work day trying to beat the clock and the competition.
 
I used my pc and chrome and had written down my message in advance just waiting to hit enter at the right moment but as the message said after 19:00 NY time I decided that I should wait a second after that time, so I'm not early - big mistake as hitting send a second later got me at around the middle of the 100 units' run and I imagine a second later and the facebook input time would mean being late to the candy party.
 
Anyway, fun times and the important thing is that when the dust settled I was in the coveted list .

Haha! I'm not interested in Monk+ candy and I'm happy with my semi-transparent and darth Monk+. Still, when I read the posts it reminds me a bit of when Blox release a batch of their earbuds (sorry Lee for bringing in other makers).

Ha ha, all right, I'm getting a sense of what the complaints are about now. :)

So, Lee's reply might be: "**** you tool! Not working bent plug still better than Dre Beats!"


I don't get what you're trying to say here...i'm not complaining or anything. This is purely my fault as 1) i didn't purchase more 2) totally forgot that my dap was at my back pocket and i sat down in a hurry
