*Becky* Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 I´m giving up now, my fingers hurt :/ And yes, it felt like 100.000 people trying. So I guess I´ll spend the rest of the weekend listening to SWR3 :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major Minus Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Try it all again. We got the Tix 20 min. after 9am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felinegurl Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 But subtract probably 100 or 200, because people probably RSVP'd before they bought the tickets & then didn't get any :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fabreeze Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Hello everybody! : o ) I'm sorry this has to be my first post but the show is now officially sold out: https://de-de.facebook.com/eventimDE In the comment section they wrote: - "Guten Morgen zusammen! Die Nachfrage war einfach riesengroß. Die Köln-Show war innerhalb von Minuten ausverkauft. Es tut uns sehr leid, dass einige Fans dieses Mal leider kein Glück hatten! Viele Grüße!" - "Wir können eure Enttäuschung verstehen. Die Nachfrage war riesengroß. Es waren knapp 2.000 Tickets im Verkauf, die in der Tat nach wenigen Sekunden alle in Warenkörben reserviert waren und nach wenigen Minuten war die Show ausverkauft!” I'm sorry for all of those (including me ; o )) who couldn't get through! But don't worry! You'll get to see them soon, I'm sure, and for those hoping it would be "intimate": I was there in 2011 for a "The Red Hot Chili Peppers" concert and it didn't feel more intimate as in a large hall in the first few rows and the most memorable moments I experienced in huge stadiums when I was looking around and saw many thousand people being happy whether they were in row one or row "5'000" ( ; o )). Don't be angry at anybody...In many "Facebook comments" they're just bashing everything which kind of reminds me of this: : o D It's paradox I know, but it's great they're as popular, isn't it? Have a guh-reat day! : o ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Becky* Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Thanks Fabreeze! But I wouldn´t say they were sold out in minutes, it must have been less than a second, otherwise the constant refreshing would have worked :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Crieff Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Just stopping by to post that I managed to get a ticket :wacky: See you in Cologne! Of course, you have Tash powers!

Rvs_009 Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Really glad to see that still a lot of coldplaying members managed to get tickets.... But still angry i got nothing :'( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rvs_009 Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 How did you do this? I've searched some other boards. It was pure luck. Everyone refreshed at exactly 9:00. And it was a matter of miliseconds to decide if you were picked or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabreeze Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Thanks Fabreeze! But I wouldn´t say they were sold out in minutes, it must have been less than a second, otherwise the constant refreshing would have worked :\ You're welcome, "Becky"! (I don't know to what extent we're using pseudonyms here ; o )) As they say (almost) all tickets were RESERVED after a few seconds and SOLD after a few minutes (after all the payment procedures). But it's definitely worth continuing to refresh as payment procedures fail or whatever and tickets get released again. Concerning technical preparation I sure could have done better (faster internet connection, program/download automatic refreshing algorithms or asking like 10 friends for help) but all my purchases in the past were way more comfortable (e.g. I bought my "The Red Hot Chili Peppers" tickets for "E-Werk" like 5 minutes later and they were constantly available for like 10 minutes). But I'm sure I'm not the only one upgrading for future purchases and we'll just end up in a world like the one of "high-frequency trading" (http://www.nytimes.com/2014/04/14/opinion/krugman-three-expensive-milliseconds.html?ref=highfrequencyalgorithmictrading) ; o ) Congrats to all the lucky ones! Enjoy! : o ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
