If they can't handle it, don't do it at all. Simples!

Ticketmasters servers, which are obviously more geared up for huge server demand, cannot handle it when a big gig is announced (always go down and time out on you) so Taste London were, at worst, a bit optimistic how their servers would fare.

It seems the latecomers might have done better out of this? Silly technology lol!

I think you may be correct which does sort of make it all a bit pointless - on another occasion it might be best to do it as a draw style thing.

Still, it's not worth crying over spilt milk, there are far more important things in life to get frustrated at than wether you won a restaurant discount card - the phrase "People should get out a bit more" springs to mind which is amusingly ironic in this particular situation.

I'm on the list!

There are LOADS of duplicates people, don't give up hope yet.

Search for Andrew Short for example - 20+ entries!

Well done to those that got on there, good luck to all others!

If this is a firm chaging a yearly membership, I would have thought they have the professionalism not to publish duplicated entries, irrelevant of what the mass email said. A thoroughly unprofessional debacle this was.

it was a freebie that was swamped by alot of us here and on other freebie sites and servers have problems and all theyve done is printed the first two thousand entries from a computer now the computer deosent knw whetere mrs jones is the same mrs jones who entered five minutes ago i dont think it was unproffessional at all it was just slightly misjudged its all going to be sorted so that its fair and square

I think there may be one or 2 not so obvious duplicates in that list...e.g:

JILL SYMES and JILLIAN C SYMES who also entered a SYMES J C
JON BECKETT and JONATHAN BECKETT
JAIME DAVIES and JAMES DAVIES (same person by any chance...as both entered in lower case?)
CAROL YEUNG and CAROLYN YEUNG?



....to name but a few!!!

I entered twice and my name is on the list once. I only entered twice because someone said the first one might not have got through, but I can understand that people who thought this was a genuine draw entered several times so they are not to blame, it's the people who can't see that they have just given one bloke 31 memberships.
