maggiem Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Posting this early so it's done but when you've registered post your ticket type and number here if you wish so that we know where our fellow forum members are if we spot your tickets in a queue! I won't have any internet access when I register, so I can't post, but I'm in the Platinum A group. Anybody know how many of us in total? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raylenth Posted September 22, 2016 Author Share Posted September 22, 2016 Post after if you can Maggie, I won't be able to either until I'm home. No idea how many have been sold, usually I just try and look at people's tickets when we are in line and see what number I can see that is the highest/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ascendant.angel Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 I'm Plat A ticket number 173. Recognisable by my long red hair. Maggie im not sure that helps much but at least now you know there are more than 173 of us plat types now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raylenth Posted September 23, 2016 Author Share Posted September 23, 2016 How quickly did you book when the site went live Angel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfairie Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 (edited) I'm GOLD F 108, booked around the time Rupert was announced. Being able to choose your group letter in each package type means that there can easily be twice as many Plat A's than there are B's. Same with the Gold groups. Difficult to guage it really.

jhw Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 I bought within about 10 minutes on tickets going on sale and have Platinum A #46 and #47. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raylenth Posted September 23, 2016 Author Share Posted September 23, 2016 That's a good point, however I admit I assumed your ticket number is related to the chronological order they are purchased in and then they just tack your group letter on, not that it will be 1-150 A and 1- 150 B for example It doesn't really matter of course, just curious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pink Lady Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 I am Platinum A number 45. I booked twenty minutes after booking went live. Yes, I know. And I was third in the queue to register. I am Quite Keen. The queue looked pretty long but there are separate desks for Platinum, Gold, Silver and Weekend, so it moves quite well. Have your photo ID ready with your ticket as they are being checked. For those of you who haven't left home yet - you don't get a plug chain to hang your pass on this time - apparently there's a proper lanyard in the Platinum pack, but you won't get that till later on. If you have one to hand at home, it might be worth bringing it to save the faff of carrying the pass till you get a Sherlocked one. I'm not sure if the same is true for the other package holders. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're right as the pass just says Platinum, and the additional swinger which will get hole punched is specific to platinum A in my case.

The Pink Lady Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Now, I have a couple if hours to kill before I rejoin the throng inside excel. Luckily, I happen to have downloaded The Abominable Bride to my iPad. Huzzah! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfairie Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 (edited) Yeah I didn't get mine either Pink Lady. Got it in my back pack. Got my purse out ready to show my debit card for ID but didn't actually show it. Was just given my pass. Fiona had just picked hers up which I booked for her when I bought mine and she's 109 so am pretty sure they are doing it in order of purchase this time. I finally got round to downloading the Eventbrite app so have put all my tickets in my phone wallet now. Still have my physical ticket in case my phone dies. Oh yes, I'm just Gold 108 and my other tags have F and 6 on them. :) Edited September 23, 2016 by evilfairie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RipleyRaptor Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Am I right in presuming there may be 2 Signings Slots, and one will be for Platinum A and one for Platinum B? or will it likely be just whenever A is done, B is let through? I am Platinum B is why I ask. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am Platinum B is why I ask. Thanks. There are no signing slots Ripley. Guests will be signing whenever they aren't in talks, photo's, lunch, loo breaks, ciggie breaks. You go when you want but can only go in after your number has been called. They are usually called in batches of about 30. So the first group will be plat 1-30 (for auto's it doesn't matter what letter you are, it's by ticket number only) 1-60, 1-90 ect. So if you are Plat 100 for example you'd not be able to go until the got to Plat 1-120, but you can go through at any point in the day AFTER that.

ascendant.angel Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Guess when i upgraded i got bumped back coz i booked my original ticket within the first minute of tickets going live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raylenth Posted September 23, 2016 Author Share Posted September 23, 2016 Yeah, I'd think if you upgrade you will be put at the back of the package you are upgrading to. They couldn't do it any other way Angel. You may have had Gold 5 say originally but the person who bought a platinum ticket straight away wouldn't be bumped back to make sure you had Plat 5 when you upgraded as that wouldn't be fair to them.

BloodRedRoses1 Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 I ended up with Platinum 075 & I'm in Group B. Not too bad as far as positioning goes. I'm trying to wake-up so I can get a move on but it's not working too well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
