Exactly my point, bet you are a novice grower with a shitty setup in an illegal state, huge difference in you testing something and me doing it.
Bit harsh dude, I know you really want some of these testers. But I'm a novice grower, with a basic (not shitty) set up, and also in an illegal place. Doesn't mean they will be shit plants. Plus I bet these types of grows are a large portion of GPS customer base too, so knowing how they grow in a variety of environments is good feedback. Not everyone has access to the best setup or facilities. But people can still grow.

"Might"

If you give them out to "known growers" that might get pics" is the same as giving out to random growers..that might give pics.

Just saying.

I did not pay for my tester to be shipped, and got on the site just fine,but did not get anything,cause I did last time..
And once you get a good tester .......feed him beans .......;)

I love testing cause its growing what everyone else WILL be growing (if the cross works)

Before everyone and without buying it

In return i show pics and let the breeder know of any fuckery

Are people seriously this salty about not being the lucky few out of over EIGHT THOUSAND people trying to get a pack? Everyone was in the same boat, whether the site was working was irrelevant, 8000 people were still trying to all get the same shit, the chance of you getting something was minimal to begin with

I got the GMO cowboy cookies cross just had to be patient and not refresh and it eventually loaded the checkout page.
I had two windows open. My place order window was loading for over 20 minutes man. the other window I kept refreshing to see nothing but loading. Ahhh oh well.
Took about 15min for the checkout page to stop spinning for me, then the checkout part took another 5-10min, I walked away for a few min and came back and seen it was successful, 1st time I was able to score testers, Greenpoint is getting popular especially with all the specials and auctions they run through the year.

well that went smoothly, lol

I don't know what to say, I thought we had made the necessary changes to make sure there was no crash this time.

We upgraded, reconfigured, and are spending a LOT more on servers.

No excuses, just more bs.
Look. I could tell. There are too many factors like internet speed and device to say it was only the server rigs fault.

I got through on a phone with two bars LTE and got one 502 error during checkout. I refreshed and it hung but I was still in session with the cart cookie so I finished checkout.

Yeah man I just hope next time they have some serious servers or whatever the hell they need to handle some serious traffic like the last two tester drop. The website today was inoperable for the first few minutes except for the few who do get lucky and not because they have the best internet it really is plain old luck I guess. See you for the next round.

We had over 10k hits in a few seconds towards the end.

Thanks for reporting this. I'll look into it. It is 730:MST.
I'm not big on PHP, but 10k hits a second is easily doable with minimum infrastructure using modern design patterns. I'm curious how your code base looks. I'm sure there's some low-hanging fruit with regards to performance tweaks that can be made to improve performance. Anytime ya'll want help, hit me up.

I guarantee it's the cheapest route they could go. There are tons n tons of site with 50 to 60 times that traffic. Hell even go daddy website build up works better lol.

I agree with this guy. And to add another point, if you have a strain that has possible hermy tendencies than giving it to the perfect all knowing expert grower like @Yodaweed will not expose them. You need novice growers with shitty setups in illegal states to bring out the worst in a strain to see what it's really going to do when stressed.
