Default Suffield Hunt Cow Elk Anger and Mudslinging (renamed)

Well IBM is a winner again! I'm getting so sick of all the crashes, failures and slow downs at peak times. It's 7 minutes to the draw and I cannot even access the site never mind try to grab one of those hot elk tags.

You wonder why they didn't do this a month earlier. Have it be random draw and equal chance for everyone. You think IBm would have the bandwidth.

9;00am booted off too. error message "diagnose internet connection problems" go figure. but I can connect to all other web sites!!

My buddy is still hanging on though as he got as far as clicking "continue" to enter his payment.., then too got booted out! He back arrowed and retried. he's attempted this twice!
what a farce !

It's working for me, although it takes about 30-120 secs to load a page. I got one tag already, now trying one for my buddy. Don't hit the refresh button, you'll lose your position in the queue.

Got in several times and put in tag#.

Tells me the tag is Not Valid.

Tried four different tag #'s. All returned Not Valid.

These tags are valid, they worked for other licence purchases.





Now it says the licences are all gone.
