what fucking bullshit, that wasnt "first come first serve" i got in the waiting room pretty much the second it opened, and waited 45 minutes and got -nothing-

then when i just checked again it had me at the selection part, but it wouldnt let me login, and once i did im back in the waiting room..

it wasn't first come first serve, it's a random draw from the waiting room. they said that weeks ago.

people are still getting tickets at noon? I thought they'd all be gone by 10:00:07. I didn't even bother trying. I probably should have though.

ive read every email update up until yesterday and every single one said it was a "first come first serve basis" but it obviously was random once u got in the waiting room

fucking BS that i was obviously one of the first yet i still didnt even get to login after 45 minutes..

the released them in phases, not all available at once, better chance for everyone.

and i belive this was the final phase.

Every update I received said you would be put in a waiting room, randomly selected and then its first come first serve. Still had to be lucky enough to get in.

I had 10 windows open all in waiting rooms and it took 1hr 2mins to get in.

You just timed out when you finally got in... which sucks.

I doubt you were one of the first, I had 5 laptops logged in at 3 locations right at 10am.

Stop complaining, random is more fair.

I got in after about 45 mins and picked up 8 more tickets. There was surprisingly a lot still available, yet no Canada games (although CAN-SUI was showing tickets available, yet I couldn't even get a single seat). I was disappointed that figure skating was completely sold out (except ice dance), and that opening ceremony tickets are soooo expensive. Snowboarding mens half-pipe was sold out too.

I now have 14 pairs of tickets to Olympic hockey including:
- all 3 Russia prelim games
- one USA game
- semi-final game (fucking $425/each, ouch)

I plan on selling the rest back to Vanoc or anyone interested. Unfortunately I have 4 tickets to GER-BUR and 2 to NOR-SUI, dunno who will want these.

Picked up tickets to figure skating (ice dance) for my GF, $1700 for 4 tickets since most of the stadium is $420 tickets.
