The Last Coho

Apart of the Drunken Coders Winter 2008 competition.QUOTE(About)The Last Coho is inspired by the artwork of the First Nations in the American Pacific North West. The Coho is a type of salmon common in this area of world. These salmon return every year to the rivers of the Pacific North West and have to struggle up stream to reach the spawning grounds. However, our hero "The Last Coho" was left behind and now must make it up stream before the river freezes for the winter, meanwhile fighting against currents and obstacles and avoiding the many predators along the way.

    Pre-ordering was a bit nuts but I somehow got two orders lined up. Walmart went live early with a queue system that was actually extremely stable and I was able to snag one for shipping, no in-store pickup.

    Target.com went down immediately but the app was up for a little longer before going down and a couple of friends managed to snag pre-orders there, but it was $10 extra for release day shipping also with no local pickup.

    Don't give up on the Best Buy line! I waited for 35 minutes before the page automatically refreshed and asked me to re-login, I thought I was done for but after I re-logged back in it took me immediately to checkout with 10 minutes to complete the purchase.
  • TeconMoon @ TeconMoon:
    Best Buy local pickup is what I was going for so I'm glad it panned out. I had some rewards certificates waiting to be used and got some money back on my Best Buy credit card. Gotta get me that midnight pickup!

    @TeconMoon walmart keeps going in and out of stock. I'm worried about ordering 1 more and having cancellation since I already ordered 1 tho

    I think people are disliking the idea of jumping social media sites over politics
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Well, I do find that silly.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:

  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    I try to explain social media is what you make of it but people always jump ship with hatred for politics based off it

    So is 4chan oh wait
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    @Skelletonike bluesky claims to be decentralized like mastodon, problem is that for some reason they decided to create their own protocol for that, I've not seen a single other instance using it
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Yeah, 4chan was a bit sus... Probability of finding a trap when clicking on something was... Too high.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Well... When it comes down to, it's all for money.
  • SillyBee @ SillyBee:
    What is hilarious is that a lot of old 4chan users used to complain it became really mainstream lmao
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
