    Have you not done tormenting me with your accursed time! It's abominable! When! When! One day, is that not enough for you, one day he went dumb, one day I went blind, one day we'll go deaf, one day we were born, one day we shall die, the same day, the same second, is that not enough for you? They give birth astride of a grave, the light gleams an instant, then it's night once more.

    I knew it was gonna be a trickle, but I honestly didn't think there would basically be entire full days that went by with no listings whatsoever.

    Man, thank you dear sweet baby Jesus for letting me bag those 2 on Saturday!

    Honestly, you guys might wanna start pacing yourselves, or only be manic about hitting refresh during the times where most sane people would ever post them and maybe hopefully not that many other people are also looking.  Maybe like 6a-10a or 6p-10p or something.

    I think the chances of someone that hasn't listed yet deciding to do so at 4:47AM on a Tuesday are gonna be pretty long, and you guys are just gonna burn yourself out.

    Might as well ration it out and go balls to the wall when there is a better shot of something actually being posted.

    This whole process has made someone who camps out 3 days for rail seem rational. 

    I’ve spent countless hours refreshing and I’d actually be happy with 300 level tickets smh

    At the beginning of this, my thinking was that there might be some delays in the tickets actually posting (and, I think there were), so someone might list their tickets in the evening, but they wouldn't show up for a couple of hours. That, and time zones. My reasoning was apparently incorrect. I got lucky last Tuesday with St Louis around dinner time. For the past few days, my approach has been to check every 20-30 minutes or so. Pretty much any time I had down time. We have almost zero clue when someone is going to list tickets, and I really just can't spend all of my time refreshing the app.

    As I put it to SP1984, I basically used the, "pretend to be uninterested then SNEAK UP AND POUNCE" approach that a) is a little ridiculous, and b) should not have worked, but somehow did.

    It’s entirely possible that people are dropping tickets after giving a heads up to someone else. It would be almost impossible to beat someone who knows they’re being dropped within a close timeframe.

    Honestly I’m thinking the best chance to get tickets is going to be the day of.  You know people will be at pre-parties and a lot of shifting happens there.  Someone will meet someone who has GA or even better seats than they do so they grab those, walk in together and post their tickets for sale.  I’ve upgraded many times to better tickets day of and I’m hoping this new non-transferability thing doesn’t hamper that.  I’m prepared to buy a ticket on the day of and jump in the car and drive the 3 hours to Baltimore.   I’m not saying I’ll stop trying between now and then, just saying I think we have entered into a time period where fewer tickets will be listed so chances are super slim to score them even if you are constantly refreshing. I can’t be constantly refreshing with a job and family so I’ll have to be outrageously lucky to get tickets during the 3-5 min windows I have periodically throughout the day.
