    I wonder how many people had to rearrange appointments so they could be in front of a computer at noontime or 3/6pm

    I don't know if it is computer-specific or not, but I tested using IE and Firefox during my ticket purchases yesterday and Firefox was definitely able to perform faster. Amazingly faster. The other thing I did was login to 10c using both browsers so if Firefox got locked up, I could switch over to the IE window and hope for it to work. Firefox did time out during Indy yesterday (multiple times) but it came back to me before IE could figure out I told it to GO. Hope this helps. Good luck to you today!

    Its so nice to be a Boss :D

    I can just shut the door and pretend I'm in an important meeting...
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of
    arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to
    slide in sideways, BBQ sandwich in one hand, cold beer in the other,
    body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "Woo Hoo what a
    ride"!

    so glad I'm not the only one. I already advised my coworkers that there is a period of time between 2:50 and 3:20pm that I will not be available. They think I'm nuts.

    Just came home from work for "lunch".
    I'll be eating crow if I don't score these tickets!!

    All you nervous Bostoners & New Yorkers crack me up. I love watching you guys scamble because it is funny as shit. I know the server is going to be slow at first and freak you guys out. This is going to be GREAT!!!!!!
  • Born2JamBorn2Jam Posts: 255
    Hey, when something is important to you, scrambling is a small price to pay!!

    Worth every bead of sweat.......got my tickets!!
    That was the longest 17 minutes I've experienced in a long time!!

    oh lord - i just emailed one of my instructors (i run/teach/own a small aerobic center) that i may get in just a few minutes before class, so they won't worry that I won't be there. I did NOT tell ANYONE what I'm up to though - they already think I too am nuts about this stuff. :lol: For the classes I've subbed out, all people know is there's something I may not have finished by the time class starts, which is why I'm subbing out.
