I signed up this morning and tried to watch the Wichita St./Seton Hall game.

I clicked on the link and was sent to a "waiting room" where I was told I was 113,580th in line to view the game! They admit every 2 minutes and after the first admission, I moved up to 111,832nd!

I was warned that if I close the window, I'll lose my place in line :blink:

I went to a meeting and came back near halftime - I was up to 90,242nd :ermm:

Needless to say, I never saw any of that game :bad:

You didn't miss much. Seton Hall should have stayed home.

i signed up and got vip pass. I got in everytime I wanted to, only had to wait 2 minutes.

I've had little problem getting in all day. Must have just been when you signed up.

The OP just got unlucky with his timing. I was using a VIP and non-VIP account and never had to wait more than 3 minutes on the non-VIP one. The UT game was blocked on the VIP account I had, so I setup another one with a different zip.

If you tried between 12:15ish and 1:15ish, that was the worst time. Seems like another other time you just had to wait 1 or 2 rounds of the timer before it let you in.

I feel like I am on acid while watching this video, try to full screen it and then basically it looks like a 15th century water color painting.

Not Impressed at all.....

:lolabove: So true.. I tried to watch one of the Oakland games and I couldn't see anything when they got inside the 3 point perimeter with that black floor.

obviously, that is why it is free OWB, you get what you (don't) pay for.

But I will say this, it is much clearer than the Jefferson Pilot Broadcasts of SEC Bball games...

:lolabove: Nice description. Impressionism has its place, but not when I am trying to watch the Vols.
