    Yes, definitely, but it's still an utter farce of a system! I advance as far as the expanding circle "You are in the queue, please wait..." screen, but never got into the actual queue itself. At one point it came up with some bullshit about me losing my place because I'd tabbed out or refreshed or something (I hadn't). I'm pretty sure everything was already sold by the time I got to that screen. I shouldn't complain too much, I managed to get tickets for "follow Ireland" package last year, but ffs, it's frustrating!

    The only plus is we might learn a few things from the experience. Going to head home and try to do it at home on Thursday instead of work as would be stuck there all night otherwise. It's an awful time. Not sure why they didn't do a ballot or something like Japan. Whole system is a mess. Wouldn't leave you with much confidence that things will go right on Thursday especially with more people likely going on.

    Did anyone who managed to get tickets yesterday do the pay by instalments route? I read that was an option was wondering if it was actually there in reality

    Totally, i just set the laptop up in the kitchen corner while I pottered cooking, eating and cleaning. Made the whole thing (marginally) less frustrating!

    They have had 18 months to sort out the website and they have made literally no improvements to the site it seems.

    Thursday will be worse, as there will be less tickets available than yesterday.

    There has to be tickets left for some of Ireland's games at least. Scotland and SA stadiums have huge capacity.

    Didn't get on to the proper queue at all on Tuesday. Bizarre that I managed to get on this time for the public sale, and it's going quicker. Still not holding out much hope but I'll give it another 30 minutes or so.

    I got 4 for each of the quarter finals in Paris and 2 to the Ireland Scotland game. Got in on 2 devices.

    Must get rid of the Tonga and Romania tickets I panic bought on Tuesday.

    Got 4 Category 1 for SA.

    Site just seems like a lottery as regards getting in. I was at 0% for 10 minutes and then went straight to 52%. Climbed steadily for the next 15 minutes or so and got in around 5.30pm.

    Nearly nabbed a final ticket too but when I went to add it to the basket they were gone.

    Looks like Ireland tickets are the most difficult to get apart from France.

    Yup, happened my device stuck on 99% too.


    Meanwhile other 2 are miles back on 60 something percent. I look forward to the opportunity of buying tickets for the Namibia matches. Ha
