I logged on at 8:30am EST and opened the queue link. When it became live I was in the 6,700+ range. I got 4 tickets for Aug 22 at around 10am EST.
I started with just one device, but logged on to this thread and saw others with more devices open, so I opened 2 more (a tablet and a lap top). Each of those had much higher numbers so I closed them out and held my breath that I would make it in time to get my targeted party date. We are booked with cash at a non-DVC Resort (CBR), and I did not receive an email.
