Ugh, didn't get access to form until 9:04. Hope I'm not screwed.

I did not get in fast at all like last year.  I had 4 sessions going and didn't get in until around 9:04 and by the time I had submitted the other sessions weren't in yet

This happened to me too. Had Chrome on a Macbook and on a PC laptop and both took a couple minutes longer to load than my iphone did. Had the iphone on data instead of wifi...wonder if that had an impact...

Interesting, I also turned off Wifi on my phone and was using data.

Had six different browsers running and the first form load happened at 9:00:55, using Opera. It felt oddly pleasant to casually select everything from that point on and not have to bum rush like a maniac. Roommate had her form load only 5-10 seconds after mine.

9:04 for me, hoping for the best but expecting the worst.

I'm traveling so my setup wasn't ideal, but hopefully it's the entry time that counts. Got in almost immediately but took what felt like foreverrr filling everything out haha.

They keep saying over and over that it is the entry time so I'm guessing that's what it really is. I took a little while filling out my form too because I was on my phone and I was shaking, lol. But I got in immediately. Fingers crossed for both of us!

This is going to be the longest wait ever.  Absolute torture.  Here's wishing the best for everyone!

Very strange feelings this year.  Strangely quiet and moved soooo quickly.  Now we wait...
It is 2024, and I am still asking...where's my flyin' car??!! @fannishmarcia

I had all of my team members in my old department logged in and one of them got in right at 9:00 pacific/11:00 central. I got in on my own computer at 11:03 but just closed the form instead of doing another submission under my friend's name.

I didn't see The Bristol on the list and panicked and put The Omni as my #6 choice.

I did Hampton Inn, Wyndham Bayside, Horton Grand, Four Points by Sheraton, Westin San Diego and Omni.
