Just a second ago I decided to buy in to the last semifinal tomorrow directly as I had failed in a couple attempts to win a SNG and am lazy. Anyways I go ahead and buy it on the web site, and tells me I have 2 available? WTF? Anyone have this happen to them before? I shudder to attempt to contact "support".

There is hope, as a monkey could randomly type hamlet, also Party support might randomly give you a right answer! /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I think its:

If you put a million monkeys in front of a million party support computers, someone using their live support feature would eventually get from them: "We're very sorry for the continuing problems with our service. In the next two weeks, we are doing a complete overhaul of our software which will correct all of the persistant bugs. In addition, we are doubling our server farm and moving our customer support teams back to America. Is there anything else we can helpjaspejfasoejjfiopjofaklurioewuueroewiurpeorwer jip?"

Have to feel sorry for the guy, he writes the first ever useful response in the history of Party support and messes it up.

I wonder how long the other guy looked at the PPM part of the website before realising that it didn't cover his posted blind.

How do you save the dialog with the live help??
Cut/paste doesn't seem to work.

Use ctrl-c instead of 'copy'
