Apparently I am being scary and authoritarian in my group today. I just really want to reiterate the ground rules damn it.

I really need to get like this. Still waiting for two out of four peoples details for Sunday. Bloody lamers.

If anyone wants a guaranteed ticket later I suggest you donate to the charity i'm raising money for using the below link:

It's ridiculous, isn't it? I've just had someone in the group ask what time it is tonight. 'Oh really- I may have a work thing'.

Aaaaarrggghhh.

Annoyingly these boards will be full of tales from slackers who scored a ticket still in bed at 0901 on Sunday.

I've had to tell people not to send their details to other people to try for them on Sunday, it occurred to me they might and they were going to!!! Might've saved my chances there

I know I'm being a bit thick and panicky here, but could someone please remind me how to do this (on Chrome and IE)?

This will probably get buried but just wanted to wish good luck to everybody trying this evening.

Very doubtful I will be at a machine (don't want coach personally but usually try for others) so will be trying Sunday.

Hahaha I get called the General by my group around ticket day. I don't think it's a term of endearment!! 

They're always grateful when we get tickets though 

the choice of browser shouldn't matter.

You can also hit Ctrl/H in Chrome to open the History window and then Clear Browsing Data.

if you get it before you get on the booking page eg while you are seeing the 'busy' page, then F5 a few times and if that doesn't fix it, close/reopen your browser, if that also doesn't fix it then clear your browser cookies and cache, then close/reopen the browser. 

If you get it during your purchase eg on the registration or payment pages then hit 'Back' and then resend the page to move forward in the process again.

Thanks, that's helpful to know

Me and my girlfriend are in a ticket team with a bunch of newbies this year and we’ve taken it upon ourselves to dish out the advice and try and get everyone organised. We’re aware that we’ve come across super intense but one thing I do think about this ticketing system is that it does favour those who put the effort in, get organised and work in teams. For financial reasons, I wouldn’t be as devastated if I did miss out this year compared to some of the previous years, but I’m still putting everything I can into the two sales. First thing I said to the newbies: if you’re going to try, you have to try.

Probably superstition based on coincidence, but deleting cookies has previously got me straight through twice after 15-20 minutes of nothing.

I’ve been on See from Edinburgh twice (2015 and 2016) and both times it was scheduled 10:30pm on the Tuesday. Left around 11pm 2015, but was quite late arriving in 2016. People were panicking. Anyway, it usually leaves from Waterloo Place.

How long is the ticket scramble likely to last tonight? Sunday is usually about 45 (from memory) however can I assume tonight will be a shorter time period?

My guess is 30 to 40 minutes tops.

I think it’ll be done in 20

About half an hour - depends on how many times the servers go down.

Unlikely to happen.....they'll just spin up another instance if demand requires it.

Hypothetically, if you get coach tickets can you then cancel them and buy in general sale Sunday?

Yeh it’s not a case of servers going down anymore, do remember the days where the page just wouldn’t load
