Best explanation so far! Thanks.
Fwiw, I think see tickets should put out a statement saying that tickets obtained via unauthorized access may be canceled as a warning.
I'm not suggesting that any of this year's tickets should actually be canceled, but I don't think we should condone an escalating technical game of cat and mouse.
i think cookies contain session persistence info, which makes your connection sticky to a particular ticket server. maybe if you use the hack, you need to clear your cookies to force a connection to the unloaded ticket servers. perhaps someone who worked for see tickets has figured this out.
Maybe it is the availability of these 'hospitality tickets' that could change the face of the festival, particularly if they include access to areas not normally available to mortals? Rather than the expanded glamping per-se. In my view, one of the great levelers is the ticket arrangements, having some tickets available to the highest bidder feels a bit wrong, and creates a two tier system.
What I've not really understood is the economics around the festival tickets that the off site glamping include with their accomodation. Where do these tickets come from, and how are they official when mortals have to go to see-tickets for theirs?
I was thinking along the same lines. I could get a couple of the group to hit the Thursday button, and the rest try for Wednesday. This year was my first time going on Wednesday, and I loved it.
Comments suggest the Wednesday tickets are in demand, maybe Ill have a better change hitting the right hand side of the screen and going for Thursday from the start. I'm afraid that if I wait till Wednesday is sold out, my chances of getting a Thursday will be massively reduced.
Nerves!
I'm not an expert, but I suspect that your house only has one router, which is the box connected to the telephone line/fibre/coax coming into your house. The other boxes are access points to the WiFi to improve connectivity. Imho the hit rate is specific to each users connection, rather than the house, but this is just my view.
