I had the link open in 6 different browsers across 3 devices. My lowest number was 214 which gave me the event at capacity error. One of my others started in the 600s and got registered for 8/2 using that one. I only had 3 browsers open. Lowest number was 146 where I got the error message. Next lowest was either high 2000’s or low 3,000’s. We got in though. I’ve never been to a MM event at AK. I’m excited. I haven’t been to any MM event since before Covid! They haven’t lined up with our dates for years until this one. DH and I did AK for our 30th anniversary. It is fun. Best part was our upgrade at CR to the Tower! I really miss those bounce back rates! We flew down for the weekend for MNSSHP. He had to call on the phone for MM. NOT fun at all!!

I think so but I was literally on the last page to confirm my spots and it locked me out. Disney IT. Ugh. It should hold the spaces for those in the registration process. At least I think that's what it said it was doing. Can't see that que page that said that now.

Ok - I tracked some stats and details in case anyone is interested.
I was set up with 3 computers and 6 browsers - all on the link at 11am. Lowest number was 3368. Highest number was 7995. We live 1,300 miles away and have never been there for one of these events, so I was doing all I could to make sure we got it!
Things moved slowly at first, but picked up after about 25 minutes. Adding additional people to the queue was paused for a bit, but the line kept moving (I think that might have been confusing for some).
My earliest place in line (3368 at the outset) got in at 10:35 and I registered the five of us, but I left the others open just to see what would happen.
The 7/11 event sold out at 10:47 with my highest number sitting at 1,605. So, about 6,300 cleared (obviously many were duplicates for single users) before 7/11 sold out. Another 5 minutes and 300 users later, 8/2 sold out.
So, in the end, it took about 7,500 page engagements (maybe 3-4k users?) and 52 minutes to sell out the early registration on the two events.

I’m sure you need more than 1, but if I have one, I’m happy to give it to you to get you started on collecting them if you need them. DH is probably coming a few days after the kids and me because there’s a meeting I don’t think they’ll let him out of. If that’s the case, we only need 3 tickets, and we have 4. We will know for sure in a few weeks.

I'm on hold with MS. Maybe we can get some pixie dust today.

This is very helpful to read your description. It makes me understand better the capability of other sign-ups that “fill up” …such as TRON RUN . The virtual Q .
I wonder if technology makes it capable for DVC to “search” your Texas Chick DVCMember recent activity on their site to grant the Pixie Dust … Otherwise, they would be bombarded with calls. , etc after it fills up.
I might call to ask about Getting emails for future Moonlight Magic events . I thought I had updated everything Why do some get them and others don’t ?
