Well, I admit I was caught up in Minecraft euphoria when I told Jaxluca and ObsidianOfDoom that I would take them to Minecon 2013 if it was on the East Coast of the USA. It’s in Orlando on November 2nd & 3rd. They are doing various chores to pay for the $150 tickets (for both days) and I said I’d pay airfare & hotel.
Now I’m wondering, “what have I done?” Mojang is releasing 3 batches of 2500 tickets to help everyone have a chance to get them. The first batch was released yesterday at 7:00 p.m EST via https://minecon.mojang.com/. I was on the computer at 7:00:05 and ALL tickets were pending sales!
Meaning: tickets were gone. I only have 2 more chances to snag some tickets and honor my commitment.
My August 2nd game plan: to have 2 computers, 2 iphones, 2 itouches, and 1 ipad all set to hit “buy” for the next batch release. This reminds me of dialing in to the radio station in the hopes of winning concert tickets — we’d redial as fast as possible trying to be caller 100.
Hope it works!
