Can someone explain how to open more than one window for the VWR? Everytime I try to, it tells me to be patient and let them refresh the window I have open. Thanks in advance.

[Keener98]

Yea this is my first time trying this and I keep getting the same message and MemphisVol. Any help?

$3,000 budget this year. Last year I could only spend $1,300 but got a $2,500 return.

CTRL+N is supposed to open new windows, I wonder if they fixed it this year?

 

Anyways, I am just manually opening windows in IE and pasting "http://frontline.purchasenow2.tickets.com/buy/MLBEventInfo?orgid=5&agency=MLB&trxstate=8".

Are you using IE or Firefox?

 

If you can't duplicate a tab without getting that message, it would be easier to just copy and paste the url into blank tabs.

wtf, I'm having issues with firefox... when i open up a new tab it wont let me type in the url...little help Jon?

Also, if you're using IE and have 25+ windows open, use quick tabs by clicking the button in the top left corner that looks like four rectangles (next to all of your open tabs).

I went to history and picked the vwr and that allowed me to put the url in multiple tabs

Good luck making money this year. I'm not even going to bother trying because of the economy. The big ticket games will still be profitable, but you have to be very careful of what seats your buying and how quickly you sell them.

[hawkcub]

61 windows between IE and Firefox. Lets get this started. :D

[Keener98]

So on the tab it says virtual wa if I get in will this change to something different or do I need to keep clicking each link to see if I got in? Sorry if these are stupid questions, Im a virtual waiting room virgin :D

I've done this for the past 5 years... get opening day, sox series, and the first weekend cards games... sell them a week after tickets have been on sale for a 50% markup. It's a sure thing...

 

I don't need to maximize what I'm going to make, as long as it's a profit I am happy.

The "Virtual Waiting Room" tab will change to a different title, you'll know... it might also flash.

Open up an entirely new set of Firefox to put in the url.

It sounds like you might be using the original window that popped up when you first clicked on the T icon. If you open up a new window and paste the url in there, you should be fine.

[Keener98]

Thanks for the help everyone.

use quick tabs people, it gives you a small preview of whats going on in each tab! (IE users only)

Does it dynamically refresh, or do you need to manually do it?

They refresh like normal tabs... but you can SEE all your open windows in preview mode.

What's the deal with not being able to type in a new window of Firefox? That's weird.

 

I've got 60 tabs open in Chrome. Let's get it on!

[Balsa]

Waiting....60 windows open and no luck yet.

Holy [expletive] right at 10 I got in. Fastest ever. I got the Saturday LA game I wanted. Was tempted to go for Opening day and resell but didn't.

Wow I'm getting screwed here...
