    Question?

    When they threw up every 2013 print at the same time how did the site not crash then?  I knew it was rather easy to check out.
    I don't remember that...but I distinctly remember Pittsburgh going up by itself in the afternoon around 3pm EST

    "Status: RELEASED" means it's all good?
    What are the stages of Status?

    Mine says Pending, is that before or after Released?

    Will there ever come a day when this site can actually handle traffic for high demand things? Being one of many who spent hours (8 hours for me, more for others) F5'ing trying to get PJ20 Alpine Valley tickets, I remember feeling somewhat better about this place when the "new site" was supposed to alleviate those kinds of clusters fucks.
    Surprise! Very little has changed. What's next? Lottery for posters because the site still can't handle the traffic we throw at it? Why not, the squeaky whiner-wheels have a history of getting the grease.

    Trying to get PJ20 tickets was a long day, but I finally won out! I hope to never do that again for tickets to anything.

    I got Pitt that day but I could have sworn that the others went up too.  I wanted to get Portland but opted for the Pitt instead.

    let hope not, as much as the F5 days sucked, persistence always always paid off
    now its all a crap shoot. this is the democratic world we live in now, everything has to be "fair" and persistence and hard work doesnt pay off

    ^^^This right here^^^........I know ther is NO perfect time, but i agree that the 10 C  should change the times up when selling these limited items(why so limited).

    Also, ther are people in certain Time Zones who have NO chance for these Posters. Some are sleeping, at work, etc. etc.

    So how will you be notified of these random times?  Seems even more difficult.  Just a random Psst??  I guess.

    Eh, I don't know.  It's been predictable for the most part.  If you want one you either wait in a line at the show at 7 AM until 12 noon or you try to get here at 1020 AM EST.  There will never be a perfect system as the demand outweighs the supply for some.

    ha ha...
    For me, it's personal. I spent a week roaming loose in Berlin when I was sixteen, back when the city and Germany itself were divided (and occupied). I painted graffiti on the Wall. I saw the memorials. I visited East Berlin, sheltered kid that I was, seeing the showcase of the Eastern Bloc. It was one of my fundamental life experiences, shaping the way I view many political and philosophical matters.

    To return 30+ years later, see the new memorials throughout downtown, to see the intentionally designed and situated "Berlin Mall," the many changes -- I thought this poster was perfect. And it's very special to me and full of meaning, even if the silly could could walk around the wall fragment.

    Serious answer to a semi-facetious question, yes. Like I said, it's important to me.
    All those who seek to destroy the liberties of a democratic nation ought to know that war is the surest and shortest means to accomplish it.

    Hmmm maybe they did...all go up at random times?

    All I remember was being ecstatic that I scored a Pitt, I remembered nothing else haha

    It's all about the city centric historical imagery for me.... Plus, there's a bonus of no skeletons, skulls, and or weird animals.
