This is pretty unbelievable. Refreshed at 10:00 and the site was already down with a "we'll be back soon" message. Obviously, the bigger devs would have got their tickets days (weeks?) ago.

Should they go to a lottery system? It seems like who gets in is pretty arbitrary already, at least it would take the stress out of it. I was nervous about it all morning, and my heart was racing just before 10. Such craziness.

#25When are they going to move to a bigger venue? This is crazy.
Bigger than Moscone? Cowboys Stadium for the keynote?
I've been told the reason the event has been kept small is to maintain the same ratio of Apple developers to attendees. But I think that overstates the value of the Apple devs a bit. The attendees at this event really are one of a kind.

#30Anyone else get this screen in Chrome? http://cl.ly/image/2E2a1y0u1g0N By the time I pivoted to Safari one minute later it was sold out.
The only exceptional thing about my account was that I'm a member of two dev programs, a business and an enterprise, on the same account.
