seattlejo. She introduced me to it in March.
No, not Woot. I already knew about it.
No, the sibling site, shirt.woot.com.
Here's the deal. Each day at 10pm PST, another shirt with an original design, sold for $10 (includes s&h). This design stays until the initial run is sold out or 24 hours passes. The original artist gets $1000 if they use the design + $2.00 per shirt sold.
After a couple days, a limited number of the shirt designs go into the "Day of Reckoning". These shirts are sold for a limited time at $15.00.
But wait, you also have the Derby. On fridays, the derby starts. You have a few days to vote for the designs you like, based on various themes. The top four enter the "fog of war", and the three winners from the fog are sold the following Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. (this week's derby is based on the theme of the game "Civilization - Revolution".)
So far, the shirts I've liked (and sometimes gotten)have been:
Finding Technicolor
Army in my Pocket
Now Let Me Get This Straight (

Perpetual Emotion
Say No To Scurvy
Swim, Little Nessie!(or as they describe it "Plesiosauradorable")
