    That was the precise scenario I was inferring....apparently that was missed from our guy up above.

    we'll prolly just use a different card and mailing address and hope for the best

    Was all set to join in this debacle today. Put a reminder in my calendar, at work using their broadband....

    Then I get a text a few minutes ago that my niece's first communion is on DLD. So much for DLD for me this year.

    Enjoy everyone, and good luck getting tickets!

    The only concern I have about the Best Available is I really don't want the last group. Since you can pick up your beers during or after the designated time it seems like a lot of people wait until the last group turning it into a marathon.

    There's a link on the DLD page under the tickets tab.

    And once the timer hits 0, we also order off that same page?

    I've tried to get tickets every year it was ticketed. Was only successful once and that was last year.

    Ehh people aren't going to give up the chance to get Vanilla Bean Dark Lord by waiting until Group E with their Group A ticket. Group D people, yeah, they might wait. That happened in 2013 and it was really bad, but the lines should move much faster this year with no money exchanged.

    Yeah I would use a different name for sure, and probably a different card as well. They do review all tickets after the fact to make sure no-one bought more than 2. If say one person bought 4 tickets same name, same card, all 4 would be voided not just the extra 2. They certainly allow for multiple orders for the same address, but I would use different names/cards to make sure they know it isn't the same person.

    I wonder whether the brewery burning down this morning will affect ticket sales.

    When it comes to Dark Lord Day tickets, if you have bought in the past you know, you can never assume anything.
