  1. I reckon LCD and IDLES are a lock. We know idles love Glasto and they toured with lcd in the states this year. Surely they discussed doing Glasto. The Dublin date makes me fairly confident
  2. Have asked before but not sure got a clear answer. Do you wait until the page is fully refreshed before pressing F5 or do we just press F5 again
  3. But how would see be able to differentiate if they can only see a Public IP? Another question, do you wait until the page fully loads before refreshing again? Important for auto-refresh
  4. all having an issue where everything downloads but at the end it just says converting to MPEG-TS. And never seems to stop this conversion Anyone know what I have done wrong

  6. All just wanted to bump this one up after all the commotion of full lineup yesterday. Still needing to sell :)
  7. This is still available everyone. So bumping up.
  8. This is still available if anybody is interested. They are sold out on the seetickets website and we have a confirmation email from seetickets that we can transfer to another lead booker (which can we share). https://www.glastonburyfestivals.co.uk/information/accommodation/pre-erected-camping/worthy-view-pre-erected-camping/tent-types-and-prices/ please let me or @Dmydarasknow if interested.
  9. Disagree with this. Love them both but Bicep is far less accessible to the common person. Fred Again is pretty much instantly catchy has way more vocals and also takes influences from 90s 00s electronic scene. Bicep is phenomenal but their music is less “mainstream” and much better live than on record. Right now Fred has managed to traverse the line of “my music is so cool that mainstream and non mainstream people love me” let’s just hope Fred keeps it up and doesn’t go Calvin on us where only mainstream people love him
  10. My suggestions: 1. Obviously fix the problems when people get in it freezes times out / banking issues. Once you are in you should be able to get your ticket 2. Reducer server capacity. This makes it into a 5 hour sale. Only the people who really want to go with press F5 for 5 hours. I can imagine the casual observer giving up after 1 hour. I know people have responsibilities and 5 hours is a long time but equally it is once a year. Could start sale at 7am so it is done by Midday.
  11. Just for people who can't be bothered scrolling through the whole thing (which included me so apologies for my dumb questions which had already been answered@p.pete @parsonjack - 1 browser - refresh 60 times per minute - 1 4g phone - refresh 60 times per minute If you use multiple browsers you may increase your chances but it comes at a huge risk. People have tested it on here and on balance it appears a risk not worth taking.
  12. Thanks @parsonjack@p.pete On the cookies point, is that not solved by having Private mode on all the browsers you try? It sounds like you guys think the risk is too high which I think is right. You would rather 100% know that you have 60 chances per second than be in the hands of the gods by trying to get to 100 or something. And we don't have a clue how many servers there are - imagine its a few to manage traffic but who knows So in summary safe approach: - 1 browser refreshing 60 times per minute - 1 4G phone refreshing 60 times per minute Dangerous but potential reward approach: - Private Browser 1 - refreshing 30 times per minute - Private Browser 2 - refreshing 30 times per minutes - Private Browser 3 - refreshing 40 times per minute - 1 4G phone refreshing 60 times per minute Extreme Danger but massive reward approach: - Private Browser 1 - refreshing 60 times per minute - Private Browser 2 - refreshing 60 times per minutes - Private Browser 3 - refreshing 60 times per minute - 1 4G phone refreshing 60 times per minute Does that make sense? At the end of the day control the controllable (spreadsheets, organisation, no drinking night before, try post sold out, have enough credit / funds, etc etc) and the rest is luck.
  13. Good Man. Thanks for this. Most interested on 1 here. Am I right in saying there is a risk / reward angle on multiple browsers then? So if I had say 3 browsers running auto-refresh of 1 per second and I am lucky enough that they all allocated different booking engine servers due to the load balancing technology, I would end up with 180 refreshes per minute? However we have no way to determine which engine server we get sent to - so those 3 browsers could go to the same one, in which case you will easily breach the limit. So if we assumed there were 5 different booking engine servers and i wanted to take full risk - I would go for 300 per 60 seconds. However, if i wanted to play it safe I would just do the normal 60 (on one browser). Somewhere in the middle would be 150. Your choice is where you want to sit on the risk spectrum? Does any of that make sense?
