Oogie Boogie Bash Halloween 2023 Super Thread

The school district we are in has Sep 29th- October 14th off of school, so I am betting a lot of people in this area are booking those weekends first. The 8th was our first choice followed by October 12th, then October 1st. Some of the other districts near us have slightly different dates, but most have a break right around that time.

Now Oct 8th is showing sold out.

[update] it’s showing as available again. The three dates that are “limited” are fluctuating between available and unavailable.

If I switch my iPad from Wi-Fi to being tethered to my phone data, is that going to bump me out of my spot?

iPad green bar is almost halfway while phone is maybe 10% and I have to leave home to head out for a bit. I can turn on my hotspot and take my iPad with me, but I won’t bother if that’s not going to keep my place in the queue.

you'll be fine

Wow, flashbacks to last year. Middle times (around Early October) sold out and by the time we got in the queue we had to go for our backup date in late october. Looks that way again.

If anyone wants to play around with those. They both have "over an hour" but the bars are far along.

I've got one coming up in like 20 minutes I'm going to play with and see if I can recreate what I did before. Fingers crossed! I hate that we can't really help each other.

I’m at just over 50%. At which point are people getting 59 min or less?

Mine had given me a 51 min at around 80%

Someone mentioned once it hits the word "time" they got it to say 59 min.

Why is oct 12 th popular? I chose that date as I hoped it won’t be super crowded.

Just found out that it does hold your place in line. My computer died and when I plugged it back in, my progress bar went right back to where it was when I had Chrome reopen the tabs that were last open.

This is nuts. I'm an IT guy and have tried everything and little movement. Even went into work on my day off to use the insanely powerful setup we use. Not budging

A lot of schools have a fall break around those dates.

Mine hit 59 minutes when the bar was at about 2/3.

after the green bar hits the end of the word "Time"

 

[Lehuaann]

Sounds pretty consistent with the word time. Thank you all!

How far along?

 

[cm387]

Ha ha why is it relevant that you’re an “it” guy.

 

[woodys_girl]

How far along?

Mine got to 59 minutes at about the M in time.
