Given that there's probably 2 units @ RM1... Possibly only those with scripts can get it... LOL
Also quite suspicious it peaked from 28.8k followers a couple of hours ago and jumped to 30k++ so fast. It was hovering and inching slowly for the past few days.
Yup, it was 28.2k when I check at 6PM, then this 12 PM I check, bang! 29.1k.
Give a programmer first time, they are not ready yet, second time, they are not ready yet.
Third time? Yes, ready.
Unless they do something like Taobao, but just FYI, one of the people that had script claim they can't even fight all the humans that rushing for tickets.
For the first times they sell, I had faced captcha, and bang, network latency killed me.(Taobao APP captcha is a unlock bar like the old iOS, weak network will get you stuck on 3s)
If you wonder, the ticket range from RM 1xx to RM 12xx, with total of 1200 x 2 ticket, finished in 2 second.
So yup, 1000 ticket sold in 1 second, with human, it is even not RM 1!
Second times resell, 1.x seconds, third times, 0.x seconds.(seller detect script and cancel them for resell, that's why so many times.)

Anyways, Taobao JuHuaSuan(čåįŽ) is full of script, I has tested, 100 x RM 1 items finish in 0.5s, unless you live in China, you can't fight them.
And nope, adding the reCAPTCHA is worst idea ever, it means if you never login to Google, you are blocking them to join this event, as they will be blocked by 10-50 seconds puzzle.
Last time the ubisoft 10 years free game events they added this, and many human posted on Reddit about the reCAPTCHA, and some of them claim they just one tick and done, so I guess this is what's you get for not using Google product.

Back to topic, if XiaoMi give 2 units @ RM1, they will be booo~ by customers, because they required 30k people to follow, not 15k? like Asus.
