EIaine Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Got the 2 we needed on Thursday. Somehow managed to get the day, departure location and exact time we were after. Tried this morning for a friend and some folk on here, didn't get past the holding page. Was going to try the host file but was worried I'd somehow mess it up and wreck our connection.

Ovechkin Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 0. My mate got our six tickets, was not aware first as i I came through a minute after my mate, but could not proceed since our reg details were already used. Lucky for us! half of us been bore, half are first timers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trout Mask Replica Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Just the one. Take only what you need and no more :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fur_q Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 1, checked after the sale ended and it turns out that, for the first time ever, I no nobody who tried/was successful. Not sure if I'm going to end up paying the balance this year tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMDS Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 This was the year I just kept getting through for fun! Not to brag but I've had previous years that this wasn't the case. Can't wait to get back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teaconsumer Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 28 across our group. I didn't get through personally though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Jass Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 Our 20 strong group all got tickets. I managed to get through and buy 3 for friends after the "Sold Out" notices had gone up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSF Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 Managed to get 14 myself but as a group we managed 19. Got to the point we ran out of people to buy for. First time trying though so was probably beginners luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt1991 Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 We managed to get 21 this year. 10 in coach and 11 in main sale. Vast improvement on last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stokesy10 Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 12. The four times I've been, we've got 26, 30 something, 12 and 12. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Amazing_Oblong Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 10 - 3 in the coach sale and 7 in the general sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenelk Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 (edited) Got 18 out of 36 required in the General sale. I got to the registration page but no further, other groups that failed got no further. Fortunately one of my group was successful, but had no luck helping others Edited October 20, 2016 by Greenelk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkete Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 2 because I haven't got any friends. I did have a few panicked minutes where I could have helped others on here, but then realised I wasn't 100% sure that the server I'd connected to was pukka, then I struggled to get to efestivals as it was so busy, then the page with people asking for help was changing too quickly for me to keep up. I need to be more in touch with those in need beforehand, although is it selfish of me to not be bothered about those who haven't been on here before? I know some will say it is obviously Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeakingmyChanguage Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 Personally, didn't even get through to the transaction stage this year. Our groups got 44 though, with someone else in my group of 6 getting mine. When it got to 9:24 I was ready to rage-quit life altogether, since they're usually sold out by then. We had a spreadsheet up on Google sheets for editing. Conditional formatting to indicate success for each group, Then each successful group tries for other groups. Worked well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know some will say it is obviously I thought about that too, will be a bit more prepared next time and get some details before the sale, I got my tickets by 9:12 and had plenty of time to help others but didn't notice any regular posters asking for help, probably because they were too busy f5ing.

ivan Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 Only one of our crew got through , but working in tech services he circumvented the queue and managed to get over 15 for us which is all we wanted . He could have got far more but had non one to buy for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
