I found getting kicked off the Tenclub server to be a very frustating experience. There I was...logged in twenty minutes ahead of time and then there were flickers on the screen and at exactly 12 noon (when MSG one came up) I was booted off. Couldn't get back on until 12:20pm And, low and behold tickets were all sold.

Same thing happened around 2pm. I was there early. I was waitin' for the damn things to come up...but NOOOOOOOOOOOOO...I was kicked out of the store at 2pm...couldn't even get back on before I had to leave to work at 3pm.

I guess I'm going to one of the other shows. :p

    I have to go to work all day tomorrow and so I have to trust my husband to stay by the computer for me. I hope we have better luck tomorrow.

    actually I'll be AT the yucky doctor during the hartford sale, so I have to trust my brother to get tickets by simultaneously using both our ten club numbers. then I have to come back and join the MANSFIELD MADNESS!!!

    The BUY button didn't go through for me....I had it come up several times for both shows....and didn't get any tickets. I am really bummed.

    sorry you guys got shut out :( it really seems like a matter of luck, no rhyme or reason to the whole thing! hopefully after what happened with the ed tix and now this they'll upgrade the server to spare people the madness
  • justamjustam Posts: 21,410
    Thanks for the sympathy chiqui. :)

    We're gonna try again today. I am leaving the sales today in the capable hands of my husband while I'm at work.

    And actually what I found even more frustrating this time was that even when I got the buy button, it would lead me to a screen saying "MSG tickets could not be added to your basket because they are temporarily out of stock" :(

    I do appreciate the fact that the temporarily out of stock torture only lasted as necessary, under an hour. I am frustrated though that I never get these kind of high demand items, so I am not sure it is just luck. The same people seem to have gotten tickets for both nights in a high percentage. It seems to me that wireless is not fast enough. Which in turn brings up the issue of fairness.

    After yesterday's disappointment, however, I am still happy I'll get to see PJ in my town twice, even if by a little more distance. Also, yesterday's debacle was an excuse to allow myself to try for 10c tickets to Hartford :)
    ... and the will to show I will always be better than before.
