Ticket Queue Tips

[L-man]

How long did it take for you to get in again on your phone? This doughnut is killing me...

I initally got in on my laptop first and got in at 9.55 and was able to purchase tickets.
My phone only took about half an hour from 9.40 and in at 10.10

Still quite a few in North

Been queueing for an hour and 20mins, what an absolute joke

Cant even get in been on since 9:30

So nobody can find any actual tips for this thing? Just seems incredibly random.

I had no circle of doom all morning until it didn't like my card number which was inputted correctly. Tried to refresh and it put me in the queue. Clicked back button and could see the payment screen. Incredibly frustrating if I don't get in and don't get one now.

yep. got excited for a minute there!

Just opened on one Edge and got further than Chrome one since after 10am. Refreshed Chrome and that went further along.

The whole system is nuts, tried to buy for another member logged in at 9.30 or so and thought had joined queue, donut moves slowly but stuck for last bit. Member I was in queue for thought they would try themselves and joined queue at 9.45 they got through at 10.15 got themselves a ticket, my screen still shows a stuck donut.

Is the system designed to work better with smart or i phones than with desktops etc, member who through joining queue at 9.45 and got through at 10.15 was using i phone

This just confirms the doughnut is broken. I've been stuck at 80% since exactly 9.40 and you managed to get in from zero (?) in half an hour... congrats though

As a test I have opened multiple tabs and newer ones go further along..

Mine only seem to move if I refresh. But now I'm so close I'm too scared to try.

I give up. Tried a 10am start. Got stuck at about 70%. Then after 35m it seemed to put me back to zero (i didn’t refresh). Then i refreshed - went to 50%. Few more refreshes - now stuck at zero.

Using chrome fwiw.

Member who got through at 10.15 found this seat availability

Same

Interestingly although it states do not refresh, refreshing got closer to 100%

I've gone forwards, backwards and dropped out of the queue entirely on refreshing (I've still got one stuck at 90%) so it seems that it's a gamble.

I have as a tester multiple tabs on Edge and Chrome just to see. Constantly refreshing on each has seen further progress. Edge tabs are further along than Chrome. Of course this may just work for me on this day and never again..

UPDATE: Two on Edge refreshed and went back to the beginning. Definitely random and no pattern of any kind.

 

[easley91]

New starts on Edge at the beginning, Chrome progresses faster. I hate this confusing system.

 

[easley91]

I genuinely believe there is no timing to this, just pure luck.

Got 1 moving slowly on mobile. All others either stuck at 80% or 0%. This sucks
