F5 in one browser, auto-refresh add on, iphones?? Had a phone on 3G, laptop through work's VPN and another laptop through standard internet. Phone got through to the holding page within a couple of minutes and this is what I got the tickets on. Standard laptop took about 5 minutes to get onto the holding page and frequently gave a white page, and VPN laptop couldn't even get a holding page. All standard manual refreshing.

Lubic Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Yesterday I didn't even have anyone to go with, and was starting to think I'd have to miss out until 2019. Fortunately managed to get a crew of 5 together last minute, and got tickets. Single chrome tab, with classic manual refreshing. Good luck on Sunday - see you in June!

sheffieldlady Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 No luck this end, looks like Sunday it is. I feel deflated. I've got coach tickets for the last couple of years... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quark Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 First things first. Massive hugs for all those who didn't get any joy, and best of luck for Sunday Second, I need a fucking cup of tea after that shit. Third, how the hell can waiting for a confirmation email actually be worse than the sale itself?! Laptops, multiple browsers, Xbox even running on auto refresh. And what do I get through on? My bloody phone. Didn't even have 4G signal, got through on H. go figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely wouldn't bother with the auto-refresh apps - was taking around a second for the F5 refresh and I could easily manage that myself manually Was it actually counting down in the window? What browser were you on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deaf Nobby Burton Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 With people reporting refreshinator didn't work because it kept saying the chosen word wasn't valid... and people reporting that there was no countdown timer, my theory is there is no text on the page it's just a picture of txt, the countdown must happen somewhere in the background but you no longer get a visual clue.

Supernova Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 After stressing out a lot, managed to get tickets. Coming all the way from Mexico for the 3rd time!! 2009, 2013 and now 2017! wohooo!! By the way, still waiting on that confirmation email but already had the money withdrawn from my account so I guess there'll be no problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinhead Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 As I suspected - text was an image. Looks like phone is a good option... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjamest Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 I've been telling myself for the last 3 months that if i didn't get a ticket this year it wouldn't really bother me. The empty stomach feeling i have right now tells me i'm a liar. Roll on sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Dave I used the refresh button on my browser Just started refreshing a bit before they were due to open and was lucky enough to hit it just as they started selling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
