QUOTE(RockRaines @ Oct 18, 2005 -> 04:05 PM) Anyone downtown, or on the northside of the city? I'm in the South Loop, Printer's Row. Three stops from The Cell on the Red Line.

QUOTE(LVSoxFan @ Oct 18, 2005 -> 02:50 PM) I swear I saw something this morning and then my boss repeated it that, in reality, what went on sale today was about 4,000 tickets to each game ... Even taking all that into account, that eats up 36,000 tix per game? No, from what I understand it was ~4,000 tickets period, so ~1,000 per home game.

CubsSuck1 purposed it here, but I thought a thread of it own would work better. So who is up for an unoffical SoxTalk traveling party on Saturday for those of us who didn't score tickets?

QUOTE(ScottyDo @ Oct 18, 2005 -> 12:35 PM) bud never responds to my death threats anymore You and half of Milwaukee.

Wow, so I was in the que for Game 7 and aftgert waiting about 5 minutes, it said "The connection to ticketmaster.com has been disconnected unexpectedly" So ticketmaster told me to get the f*** out.... nice

QUOTE(aiko @ Oct 18, 2005 -> 12:03 PM) Ahh, the stupid word verification thing refuses to load. Same for me. Thank You TicketMaster!

QUOTE(CubsSuck1 @ Oct 18, 2005 -> 11:54 AM) Just checking... I can have the page up with the map for the cell and keep refresh it at 12:00? I have all four games up... not sure if thats a good idea or not Not a good idea, I got screwed during the ALCS for trying that. Ticketmaster can sense if you have more than one browser window open for more than one ticketmaster sale.

About 25% of the number I was calling before, that answered, are now saying not in serivce. The rest say circuts busy. I guess I'll be online with the hords!

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Oct 17, 2005 -> 11:21 AM) 2) Does anyone know how to save the images posted on Whitesox.com? I have gathered all the photos from Chicagosports.com, cbssportsline.com, and yahoosports, but the Flash White Sox photo gallery has some awesome shots. Anyone know how to scam on those? 1. Find the gallery you want. ex: http://chicago.whitesox.mlb.com/mlb/photog.../cf1252621.html 2. In your browser find the option in the menu bar to "View Source" or "Page Source" (often is Command-U) 3. In that mess of code serach for "flashvars" You will find this a line like this: document.write('<param name="flashvars" value="xmlFilePath=/mlb/photogallery/post_season/year_2005/month_10/day_17/cf1252621.xml"/>'); You are interested in the part that is the "xmlFilePath" 4. Point your web broswer at http://mlb.com/mlb/photogallery/post_seaso...7/cf1252621.xml The XML file is basicly a text file that tells the Flash Gallery application where the photos are located and what the captions are. 5. So when we load the XML file we find: <gallery galleryID="ws2005" date="Oct. 16, 2005" title="Chicago White Sox celebrate" dropdownURL="http://www.mlb.com/photogallery/year_2005/mlb_dropdown.xml"> − <photo id="1252598" thumburl="/images/2005/10/17/4Hdkf**D.jpg" url="/images/2005/10/17/OTEfZMDv.jpg" width="462" height="462" source="Andrew T.

Malana/MLB.com The Caption is: "White Sox first baseman Paul Konerko (top) hugs winning pitcher Jose Contreras as the White Sox defeat the Angels, 6-3, to win the ALCS and advance to the World Series." And that is it. You can do this with every one of the gallerys that MLB.com puts up. Just look for the "flashvars" XML file that tells you where the images are. And always just add "http://mlb.com" to the front of the URLs that are given.
