They weren't kiddingI clicked on that URL immediately after receiving the email, and there were no rovers available. Someone had beaten me to it.
So I signed up for the email notification again, got the email again, and missed again. On the third iteration I clicked in time. Today Owen, Cole and I put it together and dispatched it immediately to the Martian surface.

All systems are functioning perfectly!
