They really should psst...at random times instead of the 10 am EST hour every time. That would help with the crashes.

^^^This right here^^^........I know ther is NO perfect time, but i agree that the 10 C  should change the times up when selling these limited items(why so limited).

Also, ther are people in certain Time Zones who have NO chance for these Posters. Some are sleeping, at work, etc. etc.

Eh, I don't know.  It's been predictable for the most part.  If you want one you either wait in a line at the show at 7 AM until 12 noon or you try to get here at 1020 AM EST.  There will never be a perfect system as the demand outweighs the supply for some.  

Lets not make it predictable, then?

Will there ever come a day when this site can actually handle traffic for high demand things? Being one of many who spent hours (8 hours for me, more for others) F5'ing trying to get PJ20 Alpine Valley tickets, I remember feeling somewhat better about this place when the "new site" was supposed to alleviate those kinds of clusters fucks.
Surprise! Very little has changed. What's next? Lottery for posters because the site still can't handle the traffic we throw at it? Why not, the squeaky whiner-wheels have a history of getting the grease.

Trying to get PJ20 tickets was a long day, but I finally won out! I hope to never do that again for tickets to anything.

Day?  

I took off work, was f5ing well into the night, got a few hours of sleep, called in sick to work, and later in the morning scored tix

I was able to do this for all 4 spectrum shows. It took days, but beats losing the lottery IMO. Those who try hardest, and want it most, eventually got it.

Since I missed it, if anyone got it that would trade it for Padova or Chicago Thomas, message me. Thanks and congrats to the lucky ones.

Maybe I’m reading too much into it but I think something else is dropping later. That’s it for “posters” for today...who knows.

Question?

When they threw up every 2013 print at the same time how did the site not crash then?  I knew it was rather easy to check out.

I don't remember that...but I distinctly remember Pittsburgh going up by itself in the afternoon around 3pm EST

I got Pitt that day but I could have sworn that the others went up too.  I wanted to get Portland but opted for the Pitt instead.

You are correct, they dropped on newsletter days.  East coast leg went up on 2/10/14 and west coast went up on 3/10.

holding on to it sorry

Its a shame to miss out but there is little point getting upset about it. I got to the review screen time and time again and couldnt get it to process. But I understand that there were tons of people trying to get a product that was very limited, and from time to time we have to accept its pot luck which orders squeeze through. 

its wierd but i far prefer this system to the ones the artists use that can handle the bandwidth and the fastest and likely most complex/expensive bots (I realise I have no idea what im even talking about here) win the day.

I read into that the same way as well?

Limited edition products are always going to harbour some disappointment. 

But lose the limited aspect and you lose a good element of demand. 

I just think ....better luck next time

I agree.

Keeps it fun in my opinion.

Day?  

I took off work, was f5ing well into the night, got a few hours of sleep, called in sick to work, and later in the morning scored tix

I think I started around 8-9am (?), and I'm pretty sure I finally secured tix about 6pm. Not a lot of fun, but still better than standing in the merch line at Wrigley 13. No more merch lines for me.

I wish they would hold back 10 or 15% of the items, then open a window of an hour to enter a lottery for them.  Give some of us a fighting chance that can’t sit at our computers all day f5ing.

Yeah it sucks if you can't score what you want. 

It's all gonna end up in a landfill one day anyway haha

It says "limited quantity" for the Klausen.  I remember it saying "limited" for the current backpack too.

It does seem odd that the issues today were worse then yesterday...yet there were a lot more people on yesterday

Which is sort of true - nothing has ever been UNlimited correct?!

But Berlin order Cancelled because it was oversold.
