Yes, his quote was they were selling very very slow at first.. but faster now. This will be how they sell the rest of them but it will take awhile.

Of course that may all change in an hour when they say they haven't actually sold one ticket. People are accessing the payment screen, though. As stated my dad got that far but timed out when he entered ccard info and lost his purchase.

I got 4 confirmed for game 4, took over 20 minutes once I was in the system. Painful, but worth it.

Supposedly they are now selling 1500/minute.


My friend originally gets thru at like 1:05, then keeps timing out and having to reenter his CC info. Eventually he is told that his CC(with a $4k limit) has been declined. But then at 1:50 he gets an email saying he has purchased 4 rockies tickets. So he somehow may have luckboxed his way into 12 or 16 tickets, enough to max out his CC, we will know in an hour i guess.

The system comes up with a message though saying that your tix won't be mailed today. Overnight, the system will confirm that nobody has more than 4 per game, and if they do all their tix will be cancelled.

I'm in similar predicament now on game 5. I got all the way through to the point where I submitted payment, and then got kicked out. I don't know if I have tickets for that game or not.

I know this all about ticket gossip now, or maybe I missed it, but Wakefield is being left off the WS roster.

All will be cancelled, or all but 4? That would be complete BS if he gets nothing out of this when he only may have ended up with extras because of the malfunctioning system.

I know that Ticketmaster often threatens "4 max or all will be cancelled" but in my limited experience, they never have.

Might be different for the WS though.
