What’s the definition of insanity?

I had the same message even though I was only after the 1 ticket. There’s still plenty of good seating available and it’s definitely not sold out. Just keep on trying.

 

[thecatattack]

Yeah what can we do, except for keep trying. They will asked for a feedback, I'll definitely put -10 on the easiness of purchasing the ticket. No stress test, no load impact and performance testing hiks so sad.

****ing shitshow

 

[Ned Ryerson]

******* shitshow

Good ol' early 2000s Australian internet speeds. Thanks a lot baby boomers - I am going to eat 5 ****ing smashed avo lunches today you pricks.

 

[blue harvest]

Finally got back in and it keeps saying not enough tickets when trying to select best available

And now the site is crashed.

'This page isn't working' - well at least they are finally being honest.

From SEN a moment ago:

- Sales suspended until new club member time is confirmed
- Tickets already purchased are valid (thank f**k for that)
- Club member tickets not allocated will not be sold to gen admin until the new club member priority period is over

They’re wa*kers but that’s helpful info.

 

[Jaeger]

MCG tweeted they are expecting it to be down for "hours at this stage"

 

[Ned Ryerson]

Let's all get in to our nearest Brashs for tickets:

Feeling for Melbourne fans - imagine waiting twelve long years for this shit

 

[blue harvest]

I'm giving up for a while.
MCG twitter says maybe hours and will update as soon as they know more.

I think they may shut it down completely, announce a new time once it's fixed, then reopen it. That's the only real option now - too many people have been fcked around. You can't just have it magically start working at a random time like last year Tigers QF AFL Member sale period.

 

[Ned Ryerson]

MCC sale is apparently going ahead at midday. Gotta look after them I guess. Regular punters can GAGF though.

 

[Maybloomer]

WooHoo. Got tickets. Can't wait for the event !!!!

LOL! Took me a second
P.S you could command significantly more than $15 too at the minute.

It wasn't this bad for the 2016 QF if I remember it correctly. Hopefully they'll fixed the system now.

 

[Ned Ryerson]

The MCG and clubs keep apologising for something that isn't their fault. Maybe Ticketek would like to apologise and waive transaction fees for all games and refund those already charged? The lack of ownership by Ticketek is ****ing disgraceful. This is why duopolies are bad news for consumers.

 

[The Cryptkeeper]

Gil should be ice-picked for this.

This is entirely on him. What sort of utter, utter f**kwit allows all games to go on sale at once? It's not as though Ticketek have a great track record of outstanding customer service.

 

[Paul Kersey]

Still can't get over the fact the clock keeps ticking after you submit payment and agree to terms etc. Most ridiculous thing I have come across in some time.

Beheading? Pft, way too quick. Make them wait to buy tickets to the event first at least. Or better still, torture them while they wait to buy tickets. After the first 3 hours, they'll be begging for the beheading.

MCC run the ground though and have the contract with Ticketek. They have to take some of the responsibility - it happens every year. They should have put performance clauses in the contract, fcuk up like this = no fees for this week and next week

 

[The Cryptkeeper]

Would be interesting to know how many man hours Ticketek have been responsible for burning today. I can categorically tell you I have not done one minute of worthwhile employment.

I have been somewhat productive because I have dual monitors.
