VIP Tickets!

I hear you are spreading out the VIP tickets but some of us are on the other side of the world can't get to those times.
Between work, kids, and house there are hardly enough hours as is, so sitting and waiting on a PC for something that I already pay good money for seems a bit rough.
Yes I know there are others of you out there feeling the same so hey, I whined for all of us :)

...there are over 700 regular tickets just chilling out in the token shop and people are still saying they haven't been able to catch or see one.
I don't even.
I don't even.

I am so annoyed. I tried to go on last night. I even clicked several minutes ahead of time since the site was lagging severely. By the time my screen loaded they were ALL gone! And before folks say "oh there's the ones in the token shop" well... there are never any in there when I go to check! I have yet to get ANY ticket, let alone the VIP ones! And even though I've offered on several lots for VIP and regular tickets, no one has accepted... even when one of the items I offered was on someone's wishlist! I give up. Good luck everyone and enjoy the event.

I honestly think making the VIP tickets is an interesting element to this event. It creates a hype around the event that is more likened to real life music festivals and the like! While I do agree that it may seem frustrating that you have to work extra hard to get some unknown rewards now, it could pay off in the end! However, I do wish everyone who wants a ticket good luck on getting them (o: I hope everyone can get them ^U^

I'm glad I got my 2 on a morning restock. I knew this restock would be highly entertaining XD

The site crashes like that every day at 3pm when inactive accounts clear, too. The servers have needed help for a long, long time. |D

Well.... I was one of the first who got the ticket and I really felt like a VIP and happy because I got one and it was hard to get! But now everyone gets one and it isn't anything special anymore!

Do we just need one token shop ticket for the entire event or do we need a ticket for each day of the event?
I've lost interest in the VIP tickets it clearly stresses the site out to much and all you see is site problems with lag and errors everywhere.
If the site no longer needs our money then they won't need our help during other item releases either or shop sales. It's nice to see the site doing so well ^_^.
I hope everyone that needs a VIP ticket can get one ^_^.
Where I live ticket prices for concerts are very expensive and they cost even more the closer it gets to the concert date. I can't afford tickets to these shows and I'm unable to attend due to disabilities.
I hope there will be more VIP tickets for everyone the closer it gets to show time so no one gets left out. Take care ^_^.

@Marreshaann Because the artists and the programmers are different people entirely... I hope you realize that the VIP ticket and its items are included in these new items you apparently didn't want added to the site

So far we've had restocks at: 1am, 3am, 7am, 1pm, 5pm, 9pm, and 11pm Subeta time. We're spreading them out!

I am not trying to complain but please could you release these at a time that is good for us europeans, every recent restock has been late subeta time which is when I am asleep

I finally got one :) Set my alarm for 4am, refreshed on 2 devices at exactly 4:15 and they only showed up on one device because they sold out so quickly! Managed to get one on my phone though thankfully!

Not everyone is out to make money in selling extra vip ticket I got two a couple of days ago and sold it for what I paid for it.
Why can't the staff fix the lag instead of adding new items all the time .

foxette, no one is forcing you to spend real money. I used SP to get CSC to get my VIP ticket. You don't NEED a VIP ticket to participate in the event, just a regular one that is purchasable in the token shop.
The start of the event is still more than a week away. There is still plenty of time. Good luck everyone! :-)

It seems a lot of people were having problems with lag this time around (I seriously don't know how the hell I manged to get one). I realize that a lot of people refreshing the page over and over/at the same time is going to cause lag, but I agree, maybe there should be more servers up during these times? My friend and I both wished each other good luck at 12:14, then at 12:15, I had a ticket, she didn't, and she told me right afterwards too, and it was because of the lag, so unless you were one of the lucky few who just /happened/ to catch it at the right millisecond, then, well... Maybe something to think about for future restocks?

I feel a need to point out that everyone saying "stop complaining that you can't get a VIP you can get a regular blah blah blah" that I haven't been able to get a REGULAR one either and don't realy want to fork out 4 or 5 mil to get one. The token shop has been empty every single time I've checked it. Only started trying to go for the VIP because I thought the regular was impossible to get but maybe by forking out real cash I could manage to get one... NEITHER of them are easy to get and that's what's getting under my skin.

Thank you freaking lag. This blows big time. Ah well, I give up. Probably end up paying for one of these.

foxette
You force people to spend real cash and then you don't reward high scores. When you restore high score payments is when I'll spend real cash again.

No matter what they do, people are going to gripe. smh If they did just plop them into the Cash Shop for anyone to buy, folks would complain there's nothing VIP to them then (which would be correct). If there had been no lag for anyone, people would still complain there weren't enough released, etc. Really sad that people have to be this way over a game.

Link_274
Hah.. knew the site was going to lag hard.. I think I'll stick with my regular TS ticket. ;) Not worth my time to stalk the Cash Shop all day. I think my job/social life is more important than some petty "VIP" title. :) Hope more people who are frustrated and complaining start to realize the same thing.

Pistachio
everyone complaining about not getting a ticket tonight is perfectly valid in their complaints. the site should not have had lag and error pages, at this point in the game the staff should have been smart enough to have extra servers running, there's no reason that everyone who refreshed at 11:15 wasn't at least greeted with the page to buy the tickets

@Laurey You were just providing information about the difference between the CS ticket and the TS ticket. Actually, you showed sympathy and empathy, two things I would never discourage anyone from feeling.

Seriously? This is worse than the stupid token shop. Didn't really want to spend CSC on a ticket but it's annoying that I couldn't even if I wanted to.

People complaining about users selling their second ticket in trades need to stop, seriously.
They didn't break any rules by buying two.
And they're not breaking any rules by selling one, or both of them.
Just because they were quicker than you, doesn't mean they're cheating.
And a big hello to Snob. Look forward to your retort in approximately 90 seconds!

Was the news post announcing the release time edited? I thought it said 'tomorrow' so I was expecting the 9th. Oh well :/

They went... fast. But hey, if they are not hard to get then they would not be VIP passes! :)

No, of course people can voice their frustrations with trying to get a VIP ticket. It is a pretty frustrating thing. I was just pointing out the ones that seem to think that if they can't get a VIP ticket then they are going to miss out on the whole event, and that is simply not the case. I wish everyone good luck in getting a VIP ticket, but just remember that if you can't get one, there are still the regular tickets!

Star_Gazer
Like the ideal but seriously only one vip should be allowed.I see a bunch in trades people just getting them to make extra bucks off of and its no fair to those who really want them.

@Laurey I kept my page open and middle clicked the button, so yeah it says there will be a VIP-only section.

Yet it's ok to mock, criticise and complain about the complaints. Because that's not complaining or mocking or criticising in any way, that's just expressing how you feel. And you have the right to feel exactly how you feel and no one should tell you otherwise - Right? So much so that you even feel entitled to post your feelings because that's ok, and if you're ok then that's all that matters.
Gotta tell you the love on this site is just overwhelming at times.

The VIP tickets are NOT the only tickets - the regular tickets are in the Token Shop. Problem solved, event attendance achieved.

I don't even know if I even want a VIP ticket. Not fond of the extra items from buying one, but I don't want to lose out on any potential hidden perks .-.

I wonder how many V.I.P tickets will be released in total? I'm wondering if I should even try at this point? Far too stressful for just a site event.

TaterSalad
Just a word of advice, if I may. If they announce another time for release, DON'T WAIT FOR THE NEWS POST! Start refreshing at least 2 minutes before the announced time at the cash shop... you'll have a better chance. :) Good Luck!

When you posted at 1:30 A:M this morning, you said "Tomorrow" in the original text. I thought it would be Wednesday at 11:15 ... LOL. Anywho ;)

"Why should you be a VIP, you ask? You'll not only get access to the extra-special VIP area once the festival starts, but you'll get these great bonus items with every pass purchased:"
That was on the page when the passes were available. So does that mean there's a special VIP area or is that just for show?

When the exact release time is announced, they go by much faster because everyone is expecting it. And with over 1500 people online and at least half of them (if not more) are trying to get it, it makes sense that it sold out so quickly. But it did restock. There will be more restocks, so I don't understand why everyone is coming up with excuses and complaints, they will probably be released at random and announced times up until the 16th. You still have 8 more days, so everyone just relax.
Also, that is why they're VIP and everyone is limited to 2, so that everyone else gets a fair enough chance. If it wasn't exclusive, then it wouldn't be VIP.

I didn't even see them restock XD.
I checked many times at exactly 11:15 and after the news post to see a blank page XD.
Is there a delay in seeing items in the cash shop?
Congrats to those who got one ^_^.

Some of you seem to think that the VIP tickets are the only tickets. You do know that you can get the regular ones from the token shop or user shops, right? I'm pretty sure the only difference is that it doesn't come with the VIP items, but it will still get you into the event. Plus there will be more restocks between now and the 17th, and I'm sure it will get a bit easier to get some once more people reach their 2-ticket limit.

I am pretty sure it's not autobuyers guys, at the most you can buy 2. It's just everyone swarming the cs for the tickets. At 1500+ users at one time, that's a lot of competition.

@Sayonara_Baby
As has already been said numerous times, there is a total of 2 tickets per person. Once someone's bought two, that's all they're getting. It's not autobuyers, it's people being faster than you. Calm down.

They actually restocked closer to :03/:04 seconds past the minute so if you only refreshed once at :00, yeah, you lost out.

Congratulations on becoming a Peka-Boo VIP!
Don't forget that you will need to be wearing your wristband at all times to gain access to festival events.
And spread the word - we'll be getting more passes in every day until the festival starts!
Got mine, right when the clock struck 11:15, and I tried for #2, and gone.. in like two seconds!

Those sold out in 30 seconds, I think it's easier to get them when they're un-announced, though I was able to grab one.

Still, I much prefer knowing than waiting 15 hours and missing it by five minutes.
