they're on different connections from totally different ISPs... are you suggesting to refresh? pretty sure that's not great advice...

YEAH! Returning home! Other than the pause time and a minor heart attack when my browser crashed just before hitting purchase, all went smoothly. Under 20 minutes. Woo hoo!!!!

Re: Who got tickets in the Individual Sale?
They appear to be assigning a browser specific queue code. That code is your placeholder in the great line.
I have two browsers open that each have different queue codes and each have little walking men at different positions on the green graph. The first one I opened using my promo code, the second one was opened without a promo code, just to see what would happen. My first one is the "real" one for me.
OMG.... it just went from more than an hour to a number!

I had a more than an hour wait, so I left that window open and clicked the link from my email again and got right in.

Re: Who got tickets in the Individual Sale?
Congrats to all those who have gotten through so far.
With the initial queue seize-up issue resolved, it looks like everything's flowing smoothly and QUICKLY.
Queue times will jump around, since it's just an estimation of your current place in the virtual queue to when you'll get handed off to the ticket transaction engine (if there is still supply). Those times will change, depending on how long it's taking for people in line ahead of you to complete their purchase.

Maybe having multiple browsers refreshing got you all scrambled up.666isMONEY wrote:

When you follow the on-screen instructions, things work just fine.
Good luck.
