mph Posted October 20, 2022 Report Share Posted October 20, 2022 Aren't we all just firing internet arrows at a moving internet fence hoping to go through the gap in the fence ? Shoot more arrows and the better chance ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you shoot too fast you’ll run out of arrows and have to wait for a reload. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cream Soda Posted October 21, 2022 Report Share Posted October 21, 2022 Say one person's details in a group of 6 were wrong, would it tell you on the page which one is the culprit or would you have to spend time checking them all?

But still with a small risk (albeit less than it used to be) of no longer having a working session. Better to ensure everyone is correct ahead of time. If people can't get their shit together they don't deserve a ticket. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenG92 Posted October 21, 2022 Report Share Posted October 21, 2022 It was also good to know that they've fixed the shitty postcode bug. You can have a space in there and it won't return an error about it being wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I still think even within that group of 'organised one's', of which I would put myself in, it's still the minority which end up on places like these forums I've chatted to other 'organised ones' and they've never heard of efests etc and think I take it to another level Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoo Music Girl Posted October 21, 2022 Report Share Posted October 21, 2022 I've entered my details and kept the page open just in case (I know it won't help and it's not for coaches either, which is my first attempt). I swear in 2015 before the coach sale, the page was available a bit early (like 10 minutes or something) so I just filled in my details, waited until 6pm and pressed enter. I'm sure that's how it happened. Happy to be corrected, but I remember that one being really easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack.194 Posted October 22, 2022 Report Share Posted October 22, 2022 Starting to get some serious ticket day anxiety now. Have avoided it by not reading through this thread but for some reason couldn’t help myself today. Just checked - on the booking page link posted on this thread - and all registrations seem correct, just got a ‘admission not on sale yet’ message, rather than a ‘registration couldn’t be found,’ so I’m assuming I’m all good? Still got to set up/update the keyboard shortcuts on my phone as a few of the people on my group have had a postcode change. That’s what got me my tickets in the 2019 resale! 2 weeks tomorrow and we’ll all know our fate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
