I know I am ashamed. I set my alarm for 12:55est but woke up a little after 2:00. I guess I turned my alarm off in my sleep through habit. I was prepared to get on the waitlist but I give thanks to the servers today for acting up & buying me some time.

How's this??

This was the worst pre-order experience I ever had. 26 minutes just to load the PPO page! Finally snagged one @10:28.
SSC server n/a till 22 after, and to make matters worse once I clicked the order button, it kicked out like 4 times in a row. This was an unmitigated disaster, even worse than The SDCC Luke, at least then, the order page never loaded until it sold out 10 minutes after offered.
Dusty, you guys have to take care of this nightmare! Maybe give some of us SSC Customers who helped build your company a PPO pre-order VIP window.
Anyway I feel lucky and that should not have happened as I was trying to log into the web site @ 9:55.

I'll be leading the mob if I miss out on any of these. I'll go to Home Depot and buy the required amount of pitchforks and torches. :maul

Exactly! I think it will be hard to call this one SDCC "exclusive", my bet is up to 2500 of these babies are going to people who will be nowhere near California in July....or whenever it is.

I think SS will realise the HUGE demand that these 3 will have, and edition sizes will be altered accordingly....
Don't get me wrong, that's a GOOD thing. Nothing worse than collecting this line, and missing out on one, or all of those 3...

LOL....Yeah...I still can't believe the fans exploded! That is AWESOME and tragic all at the same time.
And I think it will only get worse when The big boys are released... Maul, Fett, Vader (in his suit)... oh man... it's gonna be like the scene in T2..
Well, I'm glad I scored mine.... even if it took me like 27 minutes. Whew... now all I have to wait for is Freddy and the Security Guard. And thank God I have someone getting Subject 5 for me.... It's gonna be hell trying to score one of those.

Dude did you not read that they had the servers literally blow up? Think a little before ya post please. Because you sound like a spoiled child who didn't get their special snack. They are doing just that by being a newsletter member so quit your bitching.

And WHY did they blow up may I ask? Is it because their servers couldn't handle the traffic? And if that is so and this has been the case for a number of Priority Pre-Orders why was it not remedied BEFORE the Priority Pre -Orders were being taken. Business is business and serving your clientele means making sure your equipment can serve your customers conveneintly and efficiently. It is obvious their servers don't and also obvious when hi-demand product is being offered there is a problem. Why do two fans suddenly blow-up during a Star Wars Exclusive Pre-order DO YOU THINK?
Spoiled child? Quit your bitchin? GET REAL, man, the warning signs were posted many times long ago with SSC Server problems and it will only GET WORSE when new product which is in MUCH HIGHER DEMAND, like Darth Vader, Maul, Fett, etc are offered. So get off your high horse and face the facts because this is a serious problem which needs to be dealt with or there'll be A WHOLE LOT MORE BITCHIN GOING ON, Dude.

They could have blown up for several reasons. Traffic being one of them. Sometimes these things just go as do anything that deals with being an electronical device. There hasn't been any issues for quite some time now with the servers because they added some so there was no need to remidy the situation before today. I would guess they blew up because of some kind of failure not so much the traffic on the servers. I have to say it appears you don't know jack about the way servers work so this is pointless.

Yup, I'm saying your a spoild ****ing child and that your bitching is not ****ing needed. As I said above they added servers since that problem and I would guess today was due more to another kind of failure not as much as the traffic. I'm not on a high horse just telling you that your acting like spoild child because a issue accured today on an item you are getting when YOU'RE NOT EVEN GOING TO SDCC. BE THANKFUL WOULD YA!!!!! If there is more bitching I'm sure you'll be leading the way you seem to be really good at it.

This problem needs to be dealt with and it needs to be corrected before it gets worse because it will adversely affect many of their customers, that's all I was saying before you brought it to a different level which I won't dignify any further. I'm sure they are very well aware of it. What they need to do to correct it before that happens is their prerogative.
