This is hard to believe but just scored a pair of GA for Thursday via F2F by refreshing.  Totally stoked.  Just want to give everyone hope that it can happen.  Keep trying.

You were just refreshing on the Ticketmaster site? On the page that has them listed for $1000, that’s where they just popped up? 

Yes, just the regular Ticketmaster event page where all available tickets are up for grabs.  I was toggling between 1 and 2 tickets which refreshes the listings and it popped up.  At first I got rejected as not available but I kept reloading it and I was able to cart, pay and confirm.

Anyone here score this?

Shout out to @BloodMeridian80 for coordinating a timed drop by providing a direct link. I couldn't have moved faster and someone (or something) still beat me to it. I hope that it ended up in good hands.

It is crazy that a direct link can be too slow but someone can refresh and get GA the old fashion way. 

I wonder how much of a delay from the link being available to you trying for the tickets.

It's mind boggling. As soon as I got the link, I was stuck on this screen for about a minute. I didn't see it on the main TM sale page during this time, which makes me wonder how someone other than a bot would have gotten it.

I assume you repeatedly hammered "Try Again?"

You bet your ass I did.

The link doesn’t go active right away.  The seller will get another notice that the listing is now active and that’s when you go.

I thought the entire point of having the link is that you got access to it a minute or two before it goes public. As I said, I moved at light speed, and a ticket broker (bot) got to it first. This is nothing like the past two tours, as there is no rhyme or reasons why some people are scoring tickets by F5ing, while others are having trouble with links provided by others. Oh well, the hunt continues!

You're right, there seems to be zero rhyme or reason to it but just anecdotally I've had the worst luck with links for Hollywood and Pitt. You should be able to purchase the tickets a minute or two sooner using the link but I have personally seen it where it just doesn't give that advantage for whatever reason. For a Pitt link last week, I was mashing the Try Again button and it seemed to take forever for the checkout to appear, and once it did I was able to cart but got a 504 error and the tickets had gone live on the map.

I think for Hollywood and Pitt, bots are still just pinging the inventory nonstop. For the ones with API access I think the rate limit is 5 requests PER SECOND which means there's just no chance to win if the link took too long to activate. HTTP bots will be slower but as soon as a ticket is purchasable they'll still be able to buy it faster than us. I just don't know why sometimes links give an advantage and why sometimes they don't, but my working theory is that if an API bot is running it's much less likely for a link to be successful, as if the endpoint they use to purchase gives them the same early access a link does for us. 

Either way for Florida and Pitt I'm going out of my way to keep tickets off TM by offering to share account info or scan someone in directly. It's just not worth throwing these tickets away. 

Have a full white screen now when i open the PJ page on TM. Weird. Hope its not bot-jail.
