CubertFarnsworth Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 Just out of curiosity. Was wondering what the order #'s started at for the Gencon webstore orders. Who had the first order with a Gencon item? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Q'iq'el Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 The real question is, how many orders a day can Wyrd process. They're going to start on tuesday, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nilus Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 Last year it took them a few weeks to get through them all. But if I recall most of the staff got knocked out with Con-flu. I think they have expanded since then so they can probably process quicker but based on the web store issues I am guessing they got a lot more orders this time around.

bucket_boy101 Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 I got 8740, at around 4 am, GMT +10, non daylight-savings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nilus Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 So the next question is what the latest number anyone has. I knows its being nosey but I would love to know how many orders Wyrd gets over the con online. This is the first time I managed to get into a game at the ground floor and actually see is succeed so well. Usually I seem to always pic the mini game that dies in a year. I can't wait for people to start saying Wyrd has sold out...then we will know they have really made it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucket_boy101 Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 OMG Wyrd sold out when they fixed their shipping so they weren't making a loss on each order! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, I remember the agonizing wait. Had to stop reading the forums, because of all the Book 2 spoilers. This time, it seems, I have around 1500 orders before mine (made on Friday afternoon, when I was sure the shop stabilized). I hope they are ready to handle such avalanche of orders.

Ratt Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 Wow... I feel... late. The earliest I've seen posted here is 8177, and I got my order done with 8424. Here's hoping the Wyrd crew can do as awesome job as picking/packing orders as they do of making games! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbowsher76 Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 I just placed my second order (for Alt Ramos and some cards) and my new order number is 9914. That is about 1600 more orders since my first one Thursday at 4am! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiichiro Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 That's assuming they do a fully sequential order system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mangustheix Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 well, assuming orders are $100 each, that is $160,000 in a weekend, not bad going. I just hope they get them all packed quickly, since I am about number 1200 on the list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nilus Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 That's assuming they do a fully sequential order system. Based on the orders over the weekend going up in number and looking at my order history. It appears they do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WookieeGunner Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 That's assuming they do a fully sequential order system. Honestly, there is no reason not to. You have to have a unique value in a database called a primary key. Generally this is a column of sequentially increasing values managed by the database itself. My guess is this is how the Order number is generated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eisenhorn Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 (edited) I waited till the Kirai Avatar was posted. By time I got back to the comp to order I was #9346 and that was at midnight on the 5th. My total was $271 with a whopping $12 shipping. I feel for you guys over seas. I really do.
