@Willijs3 nope but after 7 hours it says 112 it is still fluctuating which makes me nervous I wonder why. Botnet army? MITM? It’s coming.
I am thinking of driving to NORAD.
@sippinndippin When you lose connection, the site knows and puts you at the end of the line. You have to open the page and leave it open with a solid connection to keep your place in line.
Whenever my computer goes into sleep mode (and when my Chromebook turns off the screen), my wifi turns off. I know some phones do the same thing. Could that be it?
@rtjhnstn I was in line before I noticed the last person got in 3 days ago. I’M NOT WAITING THREE DAYS! The music was soothing. I should make it my ring tone.
Okay, I brought it up and IT ACTUALLY SAID “There are 0 people in line ahead of you” and then it immediately jumped to “There are 51 people in line in front of you.” I’m done.
@kakabooey@RiotDemon I think I may have gotten in, I left my work pc on the tab and set to never sleep with 11 people in front of me, but then when I checked hours later it had kicked me back to having 41 people in front of me. My guess was it presented me with the opportunity to get in and when I didn’t respond, back of the line for me. I closed the tab and decided it probably wasn’t worth it, and I’m glad I did now.
If anyone is still interested in this, I was able to enter twice in the past 30 minutes, after a less than 5 minute wait each time. It is definitely underwhelming, but if you really want to get in just to say you did, now is the time to try.
@RiotDemon@sammydog01@Trillian I spent two and a half minutes in the Exclusive Website! Then I felt guity and left. I actually heard the music the other day on a high school radio station as the background to a public service message about how, if stuck in an elevator, one should use the emergency button and then not try to force the doors open or climb up through the ceiling. It always struck me more as hold music than elevator music, but I can’t expect high school students to understand the difference.
I went to the website and spent 10 minutes inside just to throw everyone else off. While I did I checked out the Day Job website, it’s pretty cool in a retro way. I believe you can even play Doom on it, but I am on my phone so I couldn’t use a keyboard to try.
“The last entry into the website was Wednesday, August 26 2020 9:01PM”
who’s being a fucking website hog???
One just died ahead of me. DAVE?!?! CARL!?!? Are you guys okay?
@Barney sshhh… don’t give away my position! i’m taking out the 208 people in front of me. well… 206.
@carl669 Whew! I’m safe.
You’ll have to tell us if it’s worth it. There’s 208 in front of me.
I love this. A lot.
It’s a clever idea. I only waited from 240 in front of me to 218.
Are you saying I should have read this before I left work and put it up on my monitor and went home?
@RiotDemon Not unless you wanted Carl to kill you.
@Barney @RiotDemon and i would have. metaphorically at least.
It just continuously puts people ahead of me it counts down a few to like 190 then back to 210. Lol there is no website. Endless line!
@sippinndippin You may be looking at the total people in line. Scroll down and it should show you how many people are ahead of you.
@Willijs3 nope but after 7 hours it says 112 it is still fluctuating which makes me nervous I wonder why. Botnet army? MITM? It’s coming.
I am thinking of driving to NORAD.
@Willijs3
Interestingly enough I am back to 220 ahead without ever leaving I quit.

Spoiler alert
I googled it
https://www.wired.co.uk/article/most-exclusive-website
@Kidsandliz
Yeah I saw that before as well. It still says I am at 190 hours later and I was at that point within 10 minutes.
@Kidsandliz That article is talking about the old and busted https://www.mostexclusivewebsite.com/
This is the new hotness.
@Willijs3 You are too funny. Yes I clicked the bait. (grin).
@Kidsandliz @Willijs3
Gave up at 108.
I’m on my mobile, however I wonder if you inspect the page and edit the javascript if you could jump the line
I was down to 80 in front of me and had to go to sleep. I’ll try again today. Currently 150 in front.
@cinoclav Down to 112. Thinking I’m not going to get in the door by the time I have to leave work.
38 people in front of me. this is almost as exciting as when i did absolutely nothing and beat @sammydog01’s son in meh fantasy football. almost.
I got right in. What are you all crying about?
It’s glorious, by the way. But I’m sworn to secrecy, so don’t ask.
dude! you’re not supposed to let anyone know there’s even a way to get right in!
everyone go home. @ybmuG fucked it up for everyone.
SPOILER ALERT

@ybmuG If it is what I read about @narfcake would love it. Right?
If you’re fed up with that one, try this:

@Kyeh just wrong
@carl669
I’m not in line.
And I am not in front of you and in line.
/giphy Mkay?
I’m currently 36th for the last half hour.
I get the idea this is going to be like the Mystery spot in UP Michigan, “Why did I stop to take a look”?
Is the reason people move up in the line is that the background music induces hemorrhage of the spleen.
@rtjhnstn I was in line before I noticed the last person got in 3 days ago. I’M NOT WAITING THREE DAYS! The music was soothing. I should make it my ring tone.
I was 75 then 40 now back to 68? HUh???
@readnj
/giphy möbius strip
I’ve got 40 in front of me, I dare to say people, no entry since 7am Saturday morning is what i’m told! Thumb twittling is not my forte!
Okay, I brought it up and IT ACTUALLY SAID “There are 0 people in line ahead of you” and then it immediately jumped to “There are 51 people in line in front of you.” I’m done.
@Kyeh Are you sure you aren’t accidentally in the internet online waiting room to get on to the Florida unemployment site?
Spoiler alert!
@kakabooey that was it?!?!?!? How long did you wait to get in?
@tinamarie1974 I didn’t, I just found the video. I did try earlier but gave up after 5 minutes.
@kakabooey @tinamarie1974 So I can quit now? THANK YOU!

I just went back to listen to the music.
Reminds me of Martin Mull’s Miami.

@Trillian … I got in.
@RiotDemon @Trillian Me too! Thanks for not hanging around.
@RiotDemon @sammydog01 @Trillian well that was underwhelming!

Yay?
Thanks @dave, another thing checked off of my bucket list.
I’m in the website now. Good luck getting in, nerds.
@SpoopySkeleton guess you gave up because the last person was in two minutes ago.
@RiotDemon … I may have given up because of fajitas
