The bi-annual "bring back loyalty points" Hearts away ticket scramble

[Diclonius]

Here we go lads. Tickets go on sale in 45 minutes.

I'm going on my main browser at 11:35, followed my by laptop, tablet and phone at seven minute intervals to try and circumvent being randomly kicked out.

Will the system hold up? Will it randomly start limiting us to single tickets again? Will section K lower be mysteriously pre-sold out again? Will any of these issues ever be addressed? Let's find out!

As the statement says if you log in to multiple devices on the same IP address they'll think you are a bot

The ticketmaster website says multiple devices are fine, it's multiple browser windows on the same device that locks you out.

It also mentions different devices on the same internet connection on the statement.

Just been into the eticketing site to do a bit of maintenance to my account and it is taking about a minute to go from one page to the next. That bodes well then

[My_Wife_Camille]

Got my tickets sorted thankfully but I still back loyalty points

[Pretty Boy]

Bingo time:

'I've been to...... this season, I deserve a ticket'
'Where were all youse in Eritrea for a pre season friendly in 1952? Nae ticket scramble then'
'I've got 5 already ha ha ha. I'm so witty.'
'Looking for 400 spares, they all have to be together and we'll only sit in odd numbered rows'

[sauzee=legend]

Spare ticket please - I couldn’t get one and haven’t missed a derby at PBS in years 😉😂
So as a result, haven’t seen Hibs win there in years either.

Where’s everyone at? On the list of games and refreshing waiting for the game to pop up? Or are u better not refreshing?

[DTS]

I am in the queue on my phone but on my laptop there is no queue and letting me log in straight away, not risking logging in on my laptop though because ill get punted out

I suspect if you're in that situation (like me) it's wise to refresh at fairly low intervals - you don't want to contribute too much to overloading the site, but you don't want to get automatically timed out, either.

One laptop on at 11.30am, i'll put the other on at 12 on the dot

Be interesting to see how many are up for grabs. If its like Celtic's allocation at Tynie the seats at both corner flags will be blocked off and the two rows behind the goal likely to be blocked off aswell after the Zlamal incident. Time AST holders, hospitality season ticket holders and players/club get their cut about 2500 up for grabs today maybe?

[Pretty Boy]

I logged on the site about 11.35 and so far it's still allowing me to stay in and navigate around relatively quickly.

Hopefully that's a good sign.

[Diclonius]

I'm on the last bit of the grey circle already, hopefully it keeps me hanging just after when tickets actually go on sale.

[The Spaceman]

The wheel of fortune begins!

[seanshow]

Gents re grey circle - define "a wee bit" "last bit" on a clock face :)

[hailhail22]

I was in the site but got logged out and put in the queue, only a wee bit on the grey circle so hopefully near the front, going to keep trying to phone the ticket office as well that’s how I got them for the last derby

[HibeeMackenzie]

I’m at 11 o’clock on the phone and 8 o’clock on the pc

[Greencore]

Been on since 11,20

Even though the website told you if you're on before 11:30 you'll be booted out?

30 minute window isn't it? That's why I specifically accessed the site at 11:35.

What part of "Those who are logged in earlier than 11.30am will be timed out the system before the sale opens at 12pm." don't you understand?

I'm not logged in as I'm still in the queue. I factored in a 30+ minute wait for getting in.

It doesn't do it with all browsers and seems fairly random. I've still got the clock up on a couple that have been going for 30 mins.

I don't follow the rules.

Same.

[Ginger Gehagan]

Got mine, best it's worked in ages for me. Good luck everyone else, let's do these *****.

[SChibs]

The problem is the queues work like the supermarket queues. I could be second in the queue but if the person in front takes 15 mins I'll need to wsit 15 mins. There could be someone 5th in another queue but if the people in front of him take 2 mins each he'll get on before me

[tanfield]

4 tickets bought, no problems
