    Good news is that I got e-mail confirmation just now that they are still filling volunteer slots.

    These fucking things never go smoothly - there is plenty of evidence out there that demand for these things always outweighs the server capabilities, or whatever the techno mumbo jumbo jargon is. No excuse for this any more!

    How is it that hard to make tickets available on a website? There are literally hundreds of sites doing this every day...

    Times like this I miss lining up at Carson's for tickets. Or open up the damn box office. Bottle share anyone?

    Its not. It comes down to a lack of testing prior to the tickets going live and server capabilities with being able to handle incoming traffic and not crashing.
