I just snagged another pair for Philly 2. Was trying for Philly 1, but must’ve been moving too quick and bought the wrong show. Not great seats, but they’re in the building. Section 216 row 12…let me know if anyone wants me to try and time a drop.
I thought people would be on this like flies on shit, but I guess not. They are aisle seats if you’re into that. I’ll give it until the end of the day and then will be releasing.
Good lookin' out. But Will Smith has turned me off to the whole Philly scene.

To get in the building I am interested!
Me too and Sugarloafer and I are kind of buddies!
Sorry guys, I did a timed drop to the first person who messaged me. Unfortunately they seemed to have been beaten out by the bots.

I think the way people were beating bots were doing single tickets at a time. If I had more vacation time this year I would have tried for them.

Bots were definitely grabbing good singles for the Seattle shows. They’re learning our tricks 😣
Simply claiming, "the bots got 'em" ignores a multitude of realities. Even if you know a drop is coming, the stars need to align for you to win the tickets: you might not see them in a list or on the map as quickly as someone else, your card might require verification, it might take you longer to click all the buttons that need to be clicked, @SHZA may be lurking, etc. I remember in 2020 placing sticky notes on my monitor so I knew exactly where to click and even then my success rate was very low. In 2020 nobody was claiming "the bots got 'em!"
Plus, what percentage of people are running to this forum to post their success story when they do land F2F tickets? It's incredibly low. Are there bots? No doubt as we see the occasional drop end up on the secondary market. However, the majority of these tickets are getting into the hands of real fans, they're just not running to a forum to gloat.
Keep trying! You can fail 99 times out of 100 and still get in the building!

Further, on show days, or leading up to them, there are many people just constantly refreshing.

I got in no problem with good side stage seats but GAs & row 1&2 floors for Seattle were disappearing and immediately showing up on resale sites. I don’t even think I saw SHZA give a GA victory “BOOM” for the Seattle shows.

You are correct, I hit at least one GA for the first 8 shows of the leg but whiffed on Seattle. I was pretty busy that week so didn't try that much but there also weren't as many opportunities as some of the prior shows. And bots definitely could have been a factor.
Dano makes some good points, but at the same time, knowing that the drop is coming is a huge advantage. For someone who's just randomly F5ing for a show that's over three months away, it's hard to be locked in when you know you might not see anything pop up for hours or days. And if that person is out there, would an upper level pair even be an upgrade at this point? I seriously doubt it. Bots, however, will just buy everything in sight if there's a potential profit.
I'm not sure how you can look at all the listings on resale sites and say that most of these drops are going to fans.

All I was saying is Seattle was the first time I noticed bots repeatedly getting singles. Not sure why Dano felt the need to explain the whole system to me 🤷♂️

I hear you. I don't think I'm overly paranoid but I do think bots are a real issue. One look at the resale sites provides plenty of evidence

I’ve seen firsthand what they can do with rare sneaker drops and it’s scary stuff.

No disrespect meant and not directed solely at you. It's real easy to simply point to bots as why we fail to get a ticket.
Looking to accumulate 4 more for Fenway 9/17. Bringing the whole family now since I can no longer make it to Philly 1.
If you need someone to take PHL1 off your hands look no further!

Has anyone on here ever been bot blocked on the TM app, and not been able to resolve it by turning off WiFi and switching to cellular? This started happening to me yesterday, and I never encountered it before. I tried turning off wifi, connecting to a different WiFi network, trying different accounts, restarting my phone, and uninstalling and reinstalling the app, but none of it worked. I can still access TM on my laptop, so this appears to be a phone issue as opposed to an ISP issue. Has anyone ever encountered anything like this before? If so, any idea how to resolve it? Any thoughts/guidance would be great appreciated. TIA!

You have to just wait it out. The block is to your device, not your account. Sometimes it goes away after an hour or two, sometimes it takes longer.
I've been trying to get 2 for Baltimore and 1 or 2 for Philly 1. It's crazy how fast tickets sell. Even on timed drops when you know they are appearing, they are gone instantly.

Yeah, just saw a pair of great Philly 1 seats. I selected from the map before they even showed up on the list and couldn’t even cart them.
Failed to cart Baltimore Sunday night, and errored out on Philly 1 Monday morning. Frustrating.
That said, I did get great seats for Philly 2 on f2f, and got a second pair that wasn’t as good for the same show while thinking I was on the philly1 page.
