    Yes, congrats miseroj!  That’s great that anothe 10c’er won!  I really hope they put all the winners in one section to go nuts.  Meeting all of the crazies in one small spot will be pretty special. 

    Back at it tomorrow!!

    Just got back from skiing. Missed the first play, but started dialing when I saw the second play here. Not even close, no circuits busy or anything. Only silence then “User Busy” on my iPhone, except one time a few minutes in when it actually rang (!!!) only to have the operator voice tell me that my call could not be completed as dialed, which is a new one for me. Based on this I think that even if I’m in a position to dial when the song plays this week, I’m not getting through. 

    Gonna go drink two beers in the hot tub. 
    You had the same experience I had every day before I finally got through twice in the same day. Keep at it.

    Yesterday, one of us won after tossing a gallon of ice cream in front of their kid.
    Today, someone won doing the same with some snacks.
    Solution: everyone get your kid, or borrow one from a family member, and when they start to get fussy, throw some snacks at them & CALL CALL CALL B)

    On round 1 today, right as the song came on my almost 3 year old son had to go potty, and I was in the middle of feeding my 4 month old son. I managed to juggle both of those while still calling at least 15 times. I thought for sure that the Kid Karma was going to score me the tix. Alas. 

    My mistake was that I helped the older one go potty instead of throwing food at him. Lesson learned.

    All circuits are busy. I'm gonna go watch Curb Your Enthusiasm. See ya tomorrow.

    The latest episode is a great one. 
    It's been a great season. It was nice to laugh and get my mind off Baltimore and the Apollo. Back to business tomorrow and prob will be checking for F2F tix overnight. BTW - while I was making dinner, I checked for MSG tix and there was a queue to join with that walking man. A friend said that a few pairs of non F2F tix were dropped. Of course another fan beat her to them but it gives me hope that there is still a chance for those still looking!

    Don’t get me wrong - if the opportunity comes up I’m still going to try.

    I’m in a house with four other people. Three of them are going to at least one of the Baltimore/MSG shows. The fourth was with me for the first PJ show I ever saw. ALL of them would think I was insane and heckle me mercilessly if they knew how hard I’ve been trying for these tickets, or if I took a significant amount of time away from the vacation to call into a radio contest. We are in an elite minority of lunatics here.

    Yeah my call log right now probably resembles either a psycho or a stalker.

    I was 17 in line and got very excited. Moved to the front very fast and was offered the Vitalogy seats for $3k ouch. Wonder what was thrown back. We need a small drop for this show big time to get the rest of the real fans inside. Fingers still crossed!!!
  • My kids dont know it yet but theres 3 gallons of ice cream waiting for them for breakfast tomorrow and a box of thin mints to wash it down.

    • Online starts to play 2-2.5 minutes after satellite.

    • When dialing, if you hear "all circuits are busy", "your call can not be completed", or get a standard busy signal, hang up and call again. Otherwise, wait!
    • Fans that have gotten through have reported dead air or hearing background music.
    • They don't announce the winner on air (except during the FF), but many have been trying for 10-15 minutes before giving up.
    • Ice cream can be used to keep children occupied while dialing (@MakeUSmile)
    Faithful Forum:
    • Rob has given them away early in the show and late in the show. He typically gives notice at the beginning of the show. new
    • Week 1 started at 6 pm EST. Week 2 started at 5 pm EST. Check these notes for the final time. new
    Good luck everyone!
