So it might (and this is a proper stretch of a might here) appear as code before it appears on the live site; for example if they want to check the links work before they make it go live. All this is proper guessing though, not to be taken as gospel at all. But aren't you monitoring the live page so surely you wouldn't see any code until it actually goes live? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tabasco Posted May 16, 2017 Report Share Posted May 16, 2017 They could change the code, but have the line that points to the new link remmed out with a // in front of it. So it would appear in the code, but not on the live page itself, which would trigger an alert (if you were monitoring the page) but wouldn't necessarily show on the page itself.

I doubt that's gonna work. They're probably gonna test on a copy of the page we're currently monitoring, and as soon as they want the ticket sale to happen, they will replace the current page with their new page. So as soon as you notice the change in html, hundreds of efesters are already buying their tickets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

babyblade41 Posted May 16, 2017 Report Share Posted May 16, 2017 All this code and pings is above my intellect and my suggestion of waiting lists has pretty much bombed, I'm not sure how all of you are dealing with this. I just wish I could help especially the chap who was putting his friends first... what a guy and would like to think if anyone in the know could give him a ticket for the most caring and selfless person around at this moment in time ...unfortunately I don't have pings and on and off the pc all day so I'd be well down the list in reaction times To the chap who was putting his friends first , I have done something similar and my selflessness wasn't reciprocated at another time so refuse to do it again and make it clear that if I'm putting in the work then others will have to take pot luck. Not nice I know but you really find out who your true friends are later on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adamon Posted May 16, 2017 Report Share Posted May 16, 2017 If they need to test it they won't be doing it on the live server anyway. It'll be on a test environment somewhere. Once they're happy it works the whole lot will be pushed to live. There's no reason that there would be any change prior to the final push. Sometimes there is, but there doesn't have to be. They almost definitely wouldn't add commented html code and then just uncomment it at go live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people put details in immediately but weren't successful. I know I was sending my details on the right link within 30 seconds max, i didn't even get the screen to confirm my numbers, just a message saying they had now sold out, and that was almost immediately returned. so 2.31 maybe the time the link was live for, but certainly in my case is was way less than that!
