And I think it was mostly the "I got both custom slots" comment that I found irking. I mean, there were mamas on there who have NEVER gotten a TT and then she more or less brags about it. Seemed a little klassy to me.
I do think it is greedy in one week- I have two on the way via awesome bumpies, and I will not enter the raffle cause it is not fair- but I bet others will-
I know all is fair in love and diapers, but still....

Plus, isn't she basically the TT version of you with DDs :P
No dude! I gave two slots away last week and two this week. I am all about spreading the diaper love. No hoarding here.
But you got one SYOF DD and one regular custom DD last week + one regular custom DD this week. So actually you are beating her 3:2 in terms of the number of customs in a 2 week time period.

No, that's fair. I have gotten a lot of Doodles lately. I wasn't going for myself with TT, though. I wanted HP to FINALLY get the custom she's been trying for forevs and this gal is all "I got three!"
Irking. Annoying.
Reasonable of me to be annoyed? Probably not. But there you have it.

This. And, I felt *slightly* bad that I snagged a diaper this week, but you know what? I played the game fair and square and got it! I've tried for several weeks and have only been successful -- by myself -- ONCE. And even that I don't count because I snagged All Aboard when it restocked after pending. But I wouldn't go on TT FB and brag like that. People will come after her with torches.
Yeah, even though I didn't get any of the slots-I super appreciate you not hoarding them.
i disagree that jenny is greedy with the doodles. she did not have to give away spots but she did even though she does want more.
i am jealous of this other girl but i do not blame her for keeping both spots.
a lot of us have benefited from each others help scoring certain brands through stalking (and even through other means) so i see no need to keep score. lets just try to be happy for each other.

I LOL'ed at this because I was thinking the same thing.
I was not trying to insinuate that ANYONE was being greedy. I was simply saying that this chick getting 2 TT customs isn't materially different than Jenny getting 3 custom DDs in 2 weeks. And honestly, ignoring my wagonified jealousy, unless someone is doing something truly dishonest or unfair, I truly don't really blame ANYONE for gobbling up all the TTs, DDs, Bishes, GMs, etc that they can get their hands on. KWIM?
I'm over it lol. She seems like a nice mama and it looks like these are her first few TTs. It read to me like she was an old pro though and probably had an army of them at home.
It's too easy to get heated in the midst of stalking.
I didn't ready all the comments but she didn't get one last week. She tried for it and then her hubby messed up her paypal account so it got restocked and she was really bummed. She had someone help her stalk this week so they each got a custom slot for her. I'm jealous, for sure. But those are also her first 2 TTs ever so I will let it slide.
I think it's a little hard for people to swallow when 100+ people are on HC and there are only 30 diapers. This means 70+ losers, so gloating may not be the best decision. That said, I don't blame anyone for wanting more than one spot, and if they're going to use the diapers, then it's fantastic!
Re: Well, that's annoying (TT custom slots)
Yea not gonna lie, that annoys me. I am all for being a team player - but come on.
All is fair in love & diapers.

I agree-there's a difference in giving away spots you already have-she very well could have said no, "I want all the DDs I can get"

I was kidding. DDs don't even work for my kid.
I for sure think it was unnecessary of the girl to brag about it on the TT page though.

I get frustrated / angry / annoyed when I fail and I'm not even stalking for myself! That says something!
She actually didn't get the one last week. She wrote on TT's FB saying that she snagged the spot, but lost it due to issues with PP.
Hhaha no worries. Speaking of douches - please go look at the Jaclyn girl's comment on TT's status that starts "stocking is in one hour..."
Whatever, indeed.
OMFG. What is WRONG with people?
Holy... No.words.

No, I can still see it. You have to expand comments under TT's post about stocking beginning in under an hour.
Ha ha. What an idiot.

I live to try for hairpasta another day!
I understand both sides, since I've been on both. :oD
Seriously?
