How many tickets sold so far?
I don't know who tracks this but it would be interesting to have some running updates to see how quickly the allotment of presale tickets is bought up.
Perhaps another running post for when general sales opens up?
I think if I (we) could see how fast the ticket supply is consumed, it would go a long way to reduce the panicky "must buy my ticket NOW!" feeling that occurs at noon when the green flag drops for sales. I don't think folks will sit back and wait until the last minute, but it is interesting to see sales ramp up then wind down towards the deadlines?

They don't release numbers. Usually we just speculate from the eplaya posts.

Sorry, as tamarakay mentioned that information is not published for any of the sales. When they're gone, the link to purchase will go away.

Re: How many tickets sold so far?
There are 3,000 tickets available, so somewhere between 0 - 3,000 have sold. That's the best info we'll have until that link is dead, then we'll know 3,000 sold.

Re: How many tickets sold so far?
My guess is somewhere between 74 and 2,999 tickets have sold so far. I'd even go as far to amend the higher amount to 2,998.

I'm gonna say 42. That answer seems to work for a lot of stuff.
