I was like #500 in line with the VIP and then it said I would have been some ridiculous number if I wasn't in VIP. Then it said wait one minute and boom I jumped up to #1.

This is pretty sweet. Glad I signed up early.

So far, connection speed and picture have been very good. I wonder if it will stay this good as more games get going and more people get on.

I am not too pleased with MMOD.

I signed up Sunday for the VIP thing and when I was done, the site confirmed that I was, in fact, a VIP.

I logged in today and I was General Admission. 61,000 people ahead of me. By halftime of the first game, I was 56,000th in line. I checked back a little later and MMOD had booted me from the line. I had not had an internet problem or anything. So, I logged back in and there were 90000+ people ahead of me. I give up. Basically, if you're not VIP (which I was supposed to be), it's kind of a crock of [censored].

That said, Comcast in Atlanta did add the extra CBS channels, so I can watch the UW-Milwaukee game (I work at home). Unfortunately, I don't think Marquette is going to be shown here.

I can't even get on a line, something's screwed up. I had it working before the games started, then I got booted and can't even get a #.

Glad I checked back with this thread and saw that Gen Ad wasn't working well. I just logged back in and I'm #210 in Gen Ad. We'll see when it boots me.

Ok...now it looks like it might be loading the games. We'll see. I'd like to watch the Marquette game (is it obvious I'm from Milwaukee?).

Weird, I've been booted twice and both times I got back in during the "next admission" (i.e. within a few minutes)
