If the red line with guy walking is my place, I have a long wait ahead of me.

Yep. Same here. I just don't understand it. I don't know why they couldn't assign "buy" periods and go from there. Or here's a crazy idea...….just do it via random lottery like the Master's does. Of course I'm not sure how "random" that is but it beats this.

Mine has barely budged. A friend of mine's guy is about halfway across the bar though. He made it in the lobby around the same time I did (a few minutes before the 10:00 am mark).

[mci711]

I am about halfway. Not sure how there will be tickets left when I get through.

[Newbs24]

In the fifth block as of 11:17 EST

[gatorgolferjosh]

A buddy of mine got in a minute ago and all the tournament rounds were already sold out. That was fast

[Reidman]

I've got a blank red box to the left of the guy walking. If I have to wait until the guy walking gets all the way to the right...I too have a long wait.

 

[jeff1727]

My guy has moved about 3 squares (1/6th of the way across). If the guy needs to get to the other side he will make it in another 2 hours or so at this rate.

If its anything like ticketmaster, thats a pretty common alert and then a few minutes later it resets and gives you an option... But then again, I am in line stll

[lenny171]

this is kind of a joke

[Dashfast]

Fri + Sat + Sun individual days all sold out.

[bobcat88]

Yeah so even though the "lobby" opened at 10, they just randomly assigned everyone a spot in the line at 11, so people who came in at 10:59 could have gotten a spot ahead of someone who got in right at 10. This honestly seems like a complete joke. I don't understand how you can win a spot in the lottery and then you aren't even guaranteed a chance to get tickets?? Soooo what's the point of the lottery in the first place?

My guess is to try to filter out bots

Thats the message you got when you got in or thats the "word"

[lenny171]

are they really all sold out already??

[Reidman]

so does anyone know about how many squares until you are "in"

[AB1620]

My guy is walking into the 8th block

[Newbs24]

It honestly looks like I am 1/4 of the way and still in the fifth spot... So prob 20 squares???

That's understandable. I'd honestly rather they just did it like the Masters where they assigned out what days you won, and you were guaranteed those tickets instead of getting a "You're In!" email, to find out you're actually SOL.

[coreyhr]

What a sham. I'm guessing 90% of the tickets went to the corporate sponsors the same way they always do.

Same here

[bobcat88]

Also, if anyone actually has made it through and the Fri/Sat/Sun tickets are sold out just send out a screenshot so the rest of us don't have to waste a couple hours waiting around for nothing.

[Reidman]

wow...this is a painful process. 20 squares will be forever.

[coreyhr]

Reddit users that have made it through are reporting "technical error" after entering their payment info.

Yep. There probably never were any weekend tickets available. They most likely have us all sitting in some made up "line" to make it seem like we just were towards the back.

[jeff1727]

my guy is stuck on 3rd square and has not moved for 15 mins. This process was a complete joke. They should have restricted lottery winners to guarantee they got tickets. Then if any were still available open to general public.

[watchesandputters13]

I'm in the 12th block as of 11:32am EST.... no idea what to expect at this point. Really hoping its a scenario of once you're in you have 15 mins or whatever to buy so people are taking their sweet time, preventing the rest of us from getting into actually purchase.

My virtual self made good progress pushing himself through the line to about 2/3 of the way to the front... then someone mush have punched him. He hasn't moved in 20 min now.

[Reidman]

I've been on square 2 since opening at 10 Texas time

[LeftyNC15705]

My red line is about halfway through and then just walks in place. This has been going on for the last 15 minutes. I too was in the room prior to at exactly 10 am.
