Tickets on sale Sunday 7 Oct

[alframsey]

What is this 'auto-refresh' thingy? I am literally so nervous, I know we all will be. I wish everyone the best of luck come Sunday, hope all who want a ticket get a ticket. As long as it isn't at my expense

im just trying to get all sorted with names numbers ect but id just like to wish every one good luck .

im hoping that last years weather will put people off

you can get browser tools that do the refreshing for you...Refresher is one i looked at. You need to buy the full version though to get the auto-stop on page change function, which does come with the trial version but this only runs for about an hour before closing itself down - be warned!

I will be sticking to F5....although I'll probably also have another laptop with 10 tabs stuck to the 'queue' page on the basis that 10 pages refreshing themselves every 20 seconds is as good as manually hitting F5 on a single page every 2 seconds. Might get a bite!

Oh man, i've had a dodgy stomach in work all day caused by the worry of not getting tickets.

I have to get 7 tickets, i'll have some help on the day though

realistically what are the odds of getting some, anyone know how many people have registered this year?

my mates were already registered but wanted to have a fresh registration just in case.

I'm just hoping i don't have a repeat of 2011.. sat on my laptop hungover during freshers week in a queue for 4 hours on seetickets, just for them to sell out. Was a very sad individual watching the BBC coverage that year!

[Helsbels]

I've got tickets in the resales the past 2 glastos including the very last small one within a couple of minutes of them going on sale so never give up hope!!

[mungo57]

I am hopeful for Sunday, but if not I have gotten tickets really easy on the presale before so all hope is far from gone if you don't get them sunday!

Don't worry, be happy!

Sorry, i haven't gone through the thread, but have we got a sneaky eFestivals link?

Like we had www.seetickets.com/g2011 last time, have we got one this time? I had my tix by 0849 last time, and dont want to wait until 9am! It'll be bedlam!

Also my technique is get like 5 tabs up. refresh one like mad, and hope the others might come up!

That was the official link to get tickets...

[Dukeicon]

Okayyy, but have we got any links, there doesn't seem to be any at all this year, well they just direct you bacxk to the official website!

[Bobs]

It wasn't until on the day that any 'backdoor' links came out, but they just send you to the queue like the normal links. A few years previous they actually helped as you could skip one page where you had to put your reg code & postcode in.

[GlastoEls]

Reallyy? Mine definately worked last year! It just through me right in there, and had it bookmarked! Infact i still do! thats weird! Nevermind!

[Vanderlyle]

Is this year going to be a case of constantly refreshing, or will we get put in a queue?

Also, there were rumours last year that you got through more easily using a smartphone (I think iPhone 4) - was this true or just one of those baseless rumours?

that's a simple html redirect, which can be switched off in an instant.

With ticket day getting nearer please remember to change your keyboard and mouse batteries. I made this mistake two years ago and the keyboard died on me at the worst moment possible.

I hope all people on these fantastic boards get a ticket.

See you all at the cider bus.

[cheesey_toastie]

OK - I've entered a panic now.

It's not too early for this - right? RIGHT?!!!

[dan05delaney]

I heard rumours about people using 3g getting through easier than ADSL but others say it probably made no difference

[JoeyT]

Feels weird that after what seems like an eternity waiting for ticket day it's only 73 hours away...

[cartonio]

wow...just 72 hours and it will be all about blood, toil, tears, sweat and F5...good luck to everybody!
