at 7:01 after the "Waiting for an available ticket" I got the message "We couldn't find you a ticket, but there still might be tickets left!".. I'm curious if anyone got through yet.

A few co-workers and myself are all trying to get tickets. Of 4 of us trying, 1 has gotten through registration and got a ticket.

Chronicling as it happens... 1. First time, got into the "Waiting for available ticket..." screen, got kicked after about a minute. 2. Second time, got into the "Waiting for available ticket..." screen, got kicked after six minutes (maximum time you can spend on that screen.) Was redirected to a "No More Tickets Available" page, but went back to the main page and saw it said "There might be tickets still available!"…

ditto

I just got sent back to the registration screen after 6 minutes... no luck.

fvck me too, clearly they could implement a lottery system but then they wouldn't get all the press: "google i/o sells out again in record time - site mostly doesn't crash this year!"

3rd "6min wait" is a charm...

Something won't keep me signed in. I'm all signed in, go to "waiting for an available ticket", and there's a "Sign In" link at the top

You can ignore the "Sign in" link on the ticketsearch page. When the 6 min passed and throws you back to the first page, it will correctly show that you're signed in.
