Have you got yours? Seriously at the time when the Blizzcon 2009 tickets were sold out, there were many still on queue and got frustrated. Still, there is no one to be blamed for that, after all the policy is first come first served.

Did you know that Blizzard arranged a special game for those waiting in queue to buy the tickets (sold out right now so don’t think of going to get the tickets now!).

The game is known as Failoc-alypse. Take the form as Terran Marine with a gun, a Draenei Death Knight, or a Witchdoctor. The mission? Take down as many fail-locs as possible.

You still get to play the game even though the tickets sold out.

Play it here!

I have posted about Blizzcon tickets on sale a while ago. Today, the tickets are sold out and you will have to wait until 30th May 2009 to get the tickets, if you haven’t got yours.

With thousands of people on queue, it is going to be really hard to get those tickets. 

Have you read the Blizzcon Ticket Queue System to understand how to get those tickets. Better read them fast because you will need those info. 

Here is a quick recap on what you need to do in order to get those tickets.

1. Create a Battle.net account.

2. Update your payment information. Very important because doing this way before the purchase will speed things up.

3. On the day of ticket sale, if the shopping activity reaches a certain level, you will be in queue. This is to control the ticket sale is based on first come first served basis. When you are in queue it is not guaranteed that you will get your tickets. However, if you are not in queue, then you are able to purchase the tickets immediately.

4. Once you are in queue, you will have to wait for your turn. When you turn has come, you will have 15 minutes to finalize your purchase. After 15 minutes you will be purged and you will have to start the queue again. 

Make sure you understand how it works so you can get your tickets rather than getting stuck at home with DirectTV. 

Read through the FAQs on the same page as well.

Here is one of the most popular question:

What is the Blizzard Store’s queue system?
 

The Blizzard Store’s queue system is designed to help streamline the purchasing process for visitors during periods of high demand. Whenever a certain number of store visitors are checking out simultaneously, additional visitors who attempt to check out will be added to a “wait list” on a first-come, first-served basis. While in this queue, the Blizzard Store provides you with regular feedback about the estimated wait time and the remaining quantity of items you are attempting to purchase. When you reach the front of the queue, you will be able to proceed to checkout and complete your purchase.

There are many contests going around offering Blizzcon tickets as the main prize. Here is one which is offered by the Pixelated Executioner who has extra tickets. Now, he is going to have the goodie bag but he is generous enough to offer the extra ticket one lucky winner of a contest he is organising in his blog.

To win the ticket, you have to write an original Wrath of The Lich King related story of about 700 words and send it to him at his blog. You can find the email in his blog. The due is on 14th September 2008 so hurry up if you don’t want to miss the chance of winning the Blizzcon ticket. 

The contest is open to US residents only so to those who are outside US, I guess you will have to find other ways.

The winner will have to find his or her own transport and accommodation to get to the Blizzcon. Then, the winner will have to meet up with Pixelated Executioner at the gate to get in. He will be taking a photograph so he can publish the story later in his blog. To those who hate to be in the spotlight, you can back off from the contest.

Once the winner has met up with him, the rest will be the winner’s to decide, whether the winner wants to go here and there, nothing to do with the organiser anymore.

Better start writing now if you want to get every chance to win the Blizzcon ticket.
