The main reason is that for the majority of people's websites went from notify me to out of stock. So therefore there were so many bots that clicked so much faster than we could, therefore getting cards. A person on twitter even stated that they managed to get 42 FE cards and now they're selling for £1000 at the cheapest on eBay. So yes I am blaming the bots...

It was also a Command line program so it didn't have to wait for site images or other stuff to load, just clicked straight through to the basket in mere seconds. (This 15 posts in 24 hours limit is going to be a pain)

... and the odds are those people who were able to get FE cards around 4pm did so as a result of Nvidia cancelling at least some of the earlier bot orders...

This is a great example of the card you ordered making a huge difference as there's plenty of people who ordered different cards earlier who are still waiting. I think I prefer to wait for the card I actually had my eye on anyway

I had my wires crossed, this was the order attempt I had at a different site.
 
To quote Gibbo, the expectations for the next weeks, end of the month are not that great. Small number of cards will be supplied this month.

Chances are very slim to get an update from him saying that the dream became a reality :)

Less than 50 is small, more than 50 is average, more than 100 is big and more than 1000 is a dream.

So I will use less, average, big and a dream to help give people an idea but were not allowed to post exact numbers.
