Quick poll time. Can those who had a ton of windows open list which broswer they got through with? For some reason, the last two times I had a ton of windows open I got through IE much more frequently even though I had far fewer windows compared to Firefox. It's most likely just a coincidence, I know, but I'm interested to hear which browser worked well for everyone.

damn seth! goodjob

 

Yeah, I think Nilo is taking a step down for the day as the KING OF THE VWR. Hopefully, someone can pick up a couple tickets for Nilo cuz he's helped plenty of people in the past.

 

yup, seth and others had a good day.

 

I got mine too, with the help of some friends i got games 1, 2, and 3. All crappy, but whatever. Now just root for the Rox!!!! (otherwise Ill be in vegas for 1 and 2)

Its just a game of chance I believe. I got through with only 5 windows in about 3minutes, using IE.

Stupid statistical perfection.

 

By the way, the more I think about it, the more having to mail a ticket back in for a refund makes no sense. With so many people printing out their tickets, why would they do that just for the hard tickets?

Pretty disappointed. I waited for over an 1 1/2 HRs to get tickets, and when I finally got selected, all they had was SRO tickets for a group of 4. :(

I bought tickets for UMFan, his girlfriend, a single for game three for another friend of mine, 3 tickets to game 2 for me, and a foursome for a friend of mine for game 1. What a day. Edited by Mark_R

I only use IE for the VWR with most of the unnecessary advanced browser options disabled. Blocking all the graphics on the VWR screen makes pages load faster and uses fewer resources, allowing you to have more windows open.

How many mortgages did you take out on your house?

Wait, you have to mail in the ticket to get a refund? That's dumb.

Credit cards from others helped take care of things ;)

 

I just kept on getting through

 

I had an opportunity for three more UDR seats, but didn't get the info in in time, and by then, I could only score a single for her (my friend for game three)

Is there a reason teams don't do a lottery system like the Cubs do with tickets at the beginning of the season? I'm happy for those of you that got through, but having 50-500 windows open is just ridiculous. I'd feel less bitter if it was more random like the lottery system. :)

I know for first round they will just credit the card back. I'd assume that is the same for the nlcs. I'll be calling tickets.com just to make sure.
