WWDC - If you added the ticket to the cart, you might be good

12 points by fnayr ↗ HN
I had previously added the ticket to the cart but then received an error on checkout.

I received the following email an hour ago:

Hello [removed],

Yeah, I got a phonecall from apple saying they had a ticket for me to buy and I should expect an email int he next 6 hours.
Nice! Glad more of us got tickets than we thought. It seemed like almost no one did originally.

Still a broken system, methinks.

Yeah but can you tell me exactly how far you got in purchasing it?

I pressed the Buy Now button during the brief window it was available, entered my ADC login credentials, and then... got a server error. I presume there was one more step I needed to take in order to get this magical email?

(FWIW my Apple ID is "Mason Mark" if any ADC angels are reading this...)
