1000 OMG tickets ?

Post by Serin » Sat Jan 10, 2015 8:04 pm

1000 OMG tickets, Can that be right? and 1250 auto passes ? I'm thinking I'd better get my ticket in the individual sale of miss out.

Last year after STEP closed they added some additional tickets to the OMG sale (2000 I think for a total of 3000, but don't quote me). Either way the OMG sale sold out in minutes, so yeah, I would try for the individual sale.

Try for every sale you possibly can.
There are vastly more people who want to attend than there are tickets available, and you want to give yourself every chance to be one of the people who gets a ticket. Just like any super popular event, luck now has a major part in attaining a ticket. Would be nice if it could be different, but until people stop coming or the BLM raises our population cap (or both), it's not going to change.

Even with all the drama I have a feeling demand this year will be higher than ever.

*Try for every sale if you have the funds.
*If not, plan to be at your computer the hour of individual sale.
*Have your burner profile complete and ready to go.
*Have two sources of payment just in case.

G'luck!

If I was all of youz people, you should just wait and try to buy a ticket at the gate.
But, me being me, I'm gonna try to get a chance in every sale I can, at least for my own ticket. Last year I tried the regular sale and STEP, yet didn't get a ticket there because so many other people buying tickets. Fortunately I finally get a ticket through the good will of another eplayan. This coming year, I don't know, that well of compassion might be tapped dry....

It's too much pressure! (breathes into paper bag) :shock:

Ugh my stomach gets upset just thinking about it.

Yes, the last chance OMG sale has a very small number of tickets. If you have the means, plan to purchase your tickets in the Individual Sale.
