Weird. For the first time, I got “You have reached a non-working number”. 3 times. I’m using a programmed number, and have gotten through to get a caller number, and to get the background music, in the past.
Only difference is that I’m at home now whereas I wasn’t in the past. When I’m at home my cell phone switches to VOIP. I have to wonder if that caused the issue. Strange.
I got that message too for the first time on this try using my Xfinity mobile (Verizon service) phone on cell service. Never got that via VOIP or my T-Mobile cell.

I also got that twice this round, also for the first time.
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.
Congrats!! When did you hit the call button? What part of DTE was playing? Holy shit!

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.

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

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.
