Really sorry if this has been asked, if there's more than six of you,ie more than one purchase needed can that be done with the same credit card or will that mess with the system?

one card can buy as many as you like in groups of 6, but you have to get in more than once, good luck

It just means you will need to add the address the card is registered to at the payment section rather than click it’s the same as the lead booker. 

Maybe an idea to have those details ready to copy and paste over too 

I'm not sure this is important. I've previously booked tickets for other groups that I'm not in without any issues.

Have Azure ExpressRoute as well but don't think See use Azure.

Be prepared is the best advice I can give. The horror of not having your reg correct and seeing the ‘registration not recognised’ *shudder*

What VPN are people using?? Was thinking hola but heard some worrying rumbles about them

Think I used a couple of years ago but the 30 day trial has expired, or am i mixing it up with the full product (ie not lite)?

See had 4 IP addresses advertised through DNS and allocated on a round-robin basis (as they still do btw...).  Each of these represents a load-balancer (the actual Web and application servers will be behind these on internal private IP's).  Back then See used an IP range which I think began 194.168.x.x.  On ticket day it was noticed that one of 4 x IP's was actually advertised as 192.168.x.x which would be a simple configuration mistake to make as the 192.168.x.x range is commonly used as a private IP range.  What it meant however was that the 4th load-balancer was not being advertised publicly for use, and by simply adding the correct 194.168.x.x address to Host files it could be specifically resolved to and serviced ticket requests very nicely thankyou....until See spotted the error and fixed DNS,

Fingers crossed the same tech guy is on shift this weekend ?

that's not quite correct.

The year they messed up the DNS IP address there were only 2 DNS entries.

Are you sure? I know it doesn't have a countdown ticker like for Ticketmaster, but I have never seen a ticket platform EVER that doesn't hold tickets for a few minutes while you are inputting details. I'm not saying you're wrong here (I genuinely don't know and typing doesn't allow me to show my quizzical face here...), but what evidence do you have that this particular gig is different?  

Absolutely sure.
