I have tickets for the ladies handball 1/4 finals, don't know much about handball but from memory it was quite entertaining at the last Olympics. The main thing for me is that it's an event taking place in the Olympic park so should be a great atmosphere.

Ditto.

IT WILL CRASH AT 6 or I'm not a four legged animal with a very long neck.

That said, I'm still going to try!!!

 

[black & white seagull]

As am I!

I'm just planning what I want to go for in the morning. I have to say that it irks me a bit that people are able to apply on effectively a second account when they already have tickets. I'm not aiming that at anyone in this thread, and I'm not saying I would do any different. Nevertheless, it is more than a tad unfair.

You are not the only one I call it selfish but those on here who are doing say I'm just being silly

Up at 5:30 & give it a go at 6. Not a chance.

On the site, applied for the tickets I wanted, and off by 6.02am

Hopefully I get them...

 

[Falkor]

sites now f***ing crashed grrrrrrrrrr

 

[Falkor]

every single event for me says currently unavailable wtf

 

[Southstandfaithful]

It's going to be a long morning - got in and then crashed....... grrrrrr

Site went down as soon as I had finished.

My tactic was simple. I knew the site was going to crash, so I only applied for one 'good availability' event that I had planned last night. Good luck everyone else.

 

[Conkers]

What an absolute shambles.

 

[Southstandfaithful]

Got in was at payment and now i'm getting:

It really doesn't augur well for the Games that the ticketing process has been so shambolic. They've had months to prepare for this and still can't cope.
