16-9 presale 9:00 status?

Things are going not as nice as on sunday...

The server is temporarily busy, please try back in a few minutes. etc.

What changed?

I think the pre-sale finished on 15-9-02. The next presale for other European dates starts on 18-9-02.
Just somewhere in the middle,
Not too good and not too bad.

Not really. The server has the tixx and is just refusing to serve because of the load (then do something about the server...)
It's serving incomplete pages, allows me to select tixx but when I try to checkout It's busy again and cannot help me.
Sigh...

Hmmm. I guess this is what the English presale was like?
I prefer lying in front of the post office in a sleeping bag or something like that.

That's what I mean.
I experience thesame.
It's inconsistent. It's different from sunday (and don't tell me the load is different) and it's no solution.
Just add another server; they expected a busy server (they spread the presales over the day) so this is the next measure if they really want to fix this.

If things keep going like this, then it'll soon be 11:00 CEST, another wave of ticketbuyers...

I guess, the problem really is that too many people are refreshing the site again and again. If it says "The server is temporarily busy, please try back in a few minutes.", then I guess we really need to do that. So that at least some get through and less people are on the site.

Wise words, but who wants to risk their tickets?

Hey!!

It's a way of saying: take it easy, no problem, you will get a ticket?

I would estimate it around 50 euro?
