Shop opened!!! Wooo! <Warning:Title is apparently not true>

Loki · 05-25-2006, 07:58 AM

The shop is open! I just ordered my iLiad! Woooooooooo!

CommanderROR · 05-25-2006, 07:59 AM

yeah sure...i'm checking it in intervals of a couple of minutes...and it's still closed as far as I can see...^^

nice try.

tribble · 05-25-2006, 08:09 AM

hehe, i would have gotten an sms, if it were opened.

And its not April 1st.

BTW, that was mean. I almost got a heart attack.

That was just pure evil...

Yeah, I figured that. I've been sitting here at 600rpm (reloads per minute) and thought that the adrenaline would probably blow my head right off when the shop opens. So I wanted to give everyone else a nice shocking experience.

CommanderROR · 05-25-2006, 08:55 AM

it has been tried before...but since tension was already pretty high today already you got better results...^^
If I hadn't just checked the the irex homepage before I saw your post i'd probably fallen for it too....-)

tribble · 05-25-2006, 09:00 AM

Hehe, i will calm down now, relax, and get on my plane to italy. If the shop opens before monday, i probably wont have the chance to order, but thats life

See you all in a coupl of days.

ENJOY YOUR RELOADS

CommanderROR · 05-25-2006, 09:01 AM

have fun!

GRRRR! // I just fell for it.

CommanderROR · 05-25-2006, 09:39 AM

The funniest thing about this thread is, that when I first saw it I thought the name of th poster was Loeki and not Loki, thus incorrectly assuming that an irex official was here to tell us that the webshop is now open...*lol*
When I read the actual post however, everything was immediately clear...^^
unfortunately...:-)

High 5 · 05-25-2006, 10:13 AM

You can all take it easy untill next monday.
The Netherlands has a two day holiday and most companies are closed.
Relax, take a bath, kill a politican, learn how to play the violin....

Oh and before I forget, CommandeROR, Loeki is a girls-name so your he is probably a she.

CommanderROR · 05-25-2006, 10:17 AM

cool...I really didn't know about the name...sounded so male...but somehow it sounds cute too...^^

about the holiday...we all know that...but how come henrycat is getting mail from them if they are closed...maybe he has "private insider information"

:-)
Oh...I had a bath last night, I don't have the equipment to kill a politician right now and I already know how to play the violin...that#s why I have an audition to play tomorrow...^^
So...relaxing is out of the question...but distraction is amost as good...:-)

High 5 · 05-25-2006, 10:25 AM

Most -but not all- companies are closed over the weekend.
If Irex got its softwareupdates in, it could very well be they decided to get the two days work done instead of sitting at home watching a rerun of Oprah because the weather is too bad to go to the beach.
In that case,[evil grin on] keep coming back to the webshop every 10 minutes. [evil grin off]
Then again...who would want to miss an Oprah rerun?
