Did anyone get a Captcha (click squares with vehicles) when navigating to the waiting room?

We did not see any captchas. Entered the room around 8.

How long does this process normally take after 9am? Can we be waiting for the form for an hour?

It depends on where you're placed in the queue at 9am.  If you're near the front, you'll be done in under 5 minutes (or if you want one of your top pick downtown hotels, you hope to be in before 9:02), but I certainly know of situations where people have had to sit for a really long time to even get into the hotel selection page.  I can't recall if anyone ever had to wait an hour, though.  I think it all goes rather quickly.

The sale seemed to cycle in sessions faster last year IIRC.

OnPeak tweeted that they reached the maximum number of hotel requests @ 9:34am. I should check what time they made that announcement last year, but i relaly need to go pack for my trip lol

Yeah, one of my browsers had the captcha pop up like 15 min after I had already logged in.

It better not pop up when the actual queue starts!

I just had the exact same thing happen.  Glad I didn't walk to the kitchen to get coffee in case it would have booted me out if no response....

Wondering how many people are using multiple browsers/devices.  What started out as an advantage appears to be an equalizer now.
