Granted, I refreshed like an hour of my life away and ultimately it was the bff who managed to get through and buy them for me, but the POINT IS, we have them.
Basically, they've had Comic-Con reg like three times this year and each time there have been massive server glitches and fail. THIS TIME some people managed to get through, but rumor has it, they're already sold out of 4-day passes and TicketLeap just keeps giving people the same 'over capacity' message.
And then you refresh and open another tab which probably doesn't help, but y'know uhh. Yeah.
All in all, we were on the phone for an hour going "FUCK YOU COMIC-CON I DON'T EVEN WANT TO GO IF YOU'RE GONNA BE LIKE THAT" and in the end we gave them our money anyway. It was just massively frustrating this year for no damn good reason.
Check your credit card. Even if the confirmation page won't load, they might have already charged it, which is a good sign.
We noticed on our stuff that the charges went through when we were still waiting on the thing not to be over capacity. Obviously, keep refreshing, but that's another thing to check up on.
Yeah, I've heard that there was massive glitching, so there might even be some 4 days left, depending on the refunds/reassessment of actual tickets sold. Either way, they have once again dropped the ball terribly.
They seriously have. MAN, COMIC CON, FOR A GROUP OF NERDS you guys totally suck at coming up with ways for buying tickets that won't break the internet.
Seriously. And it's not like they're the only convention on the planet either? Yeah, they might be VERY HIGH PROFILE and have to deal with a lot of traffic, but...
Surely they could just get Ticket Master to run it or something. Even a $10 convenience fee would be worthwhile to avoid this nonsense.
Seriously. I have tried three times in the past six months to get tickets and I am SO getting tickets ahead of time if I can at the con. This is ridiculous.
Yeah, when we were in the 'over capacity' hell, my friend and I texted our other friend who got in on the test run and were like IF WE DON'T GET TICKETS WE ARE GIVING YOU MONEY AND YOU ARE BUYING THEM FOR US AT THE CON. B|
But I have no idea why this has been so complicated. There is seriously no reason.

What was their deal anyway? I'm curious now. Timeouts or something?

If this doesn't go through before I have to work in an hour and a half, I will be seriously pissed.
