So I guess they increased the ticket count by 2.5x to rake in some more of that sweet sweet money, but failed to upgrade their infrastructure.

Sounds like they need to use a better service.
It's sitting at 1MM right now because no one can buy tickets.

I think the biggest problem is Wednesdays runout of tickets. As a result everyone had the same mentality 'buy first thing in the morning' which crippled the site. So instead of people just buying and being done, everyone keeps hitting refresh trying to get through which makes the problem worse.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

Wednesday I loaded it once, bought, and done. 1 page view. Today I've hit F5 probably 20-30 times and sometimes got partway through and others not. So now I'm causing way more traffic load than before trying to buy. Multiply that by everyone else and it's hammering the site hard.
It seems WAY easier to get in since lunch but now it's blocking me even though it's clearly identifying me as being in Calgary.
Fuck
I've had a 500 error every time I've tried today.
The site is absolutely getting hammered, but that can be planned and accounted for.

Managed to get through around 12:30
It's amazing a company that runs 50/50 draws for many major league sports teams can't seem to rectify this. They could potentially be losing millions in funding for the foundation if they can't find some way to allow the traffic.

My PC gets in much easier but keeps saying geo-fence blocked. Trying on my phone I just get timeouts still.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I almost guess they are throttling it to drag sales out over the day so people don't feel ripped off that they all sold out hours before the game started.
That's dumb, but people are dumb.
I’m getting a blocked message on my phone, I don’t have any other options at the moment
Sig nuked by mod.
I'd wager 96% of people cant buy tickets right now. Pot at 2 million
