I've found Emek's site to be the most sensitive to the refresh issue. I don't know if that's possible but I've been locked out after maybe a half dozen attempts over a couple minutes.

Wonder if shopify people are aware of how these drops work.
Anyone knows how to go around this locking you out due to too many request from the device bullshit?I was actually refreshing like I was setting myself on missing out, that slow. Got locked out three times anyway.Kramerica wrote:Got blocked a couple times but till managed to score. I was even trying not to refresh too quickly.
Submitted a wishlist, but do not have high hopes.

I'm not someone else.
I have only been locked out on Obey drop once or twice before even though I was refreshing like a crazy person. When Radiohead dropped, I was refreshing faster than a bot would and was not locked out even once. Go figure.
Obey is set time. Easy not to get locked out. I didn't have any issues with radiohead either.

P.S. Wow people are already going full EBer for dis Metallica.
P.S. Was expected though. I do not think I have seen a better Metallica poster, ever. To my liking anyway. Plus there are only 60 of them and who wants metal, anyway?
Duh. Haven't thought about the timing Though I definitely remember being locked out after refreshing the page maybe 5 or 6 times.Kramerica wrote:Obey is set time. Easy not to get locked out. I didn't have any issues with radiohead either.
60 screen printed APs. Thought there were 2250 lithos of every poster sold at the shows or something. Not for this Emek?
