I like the The Comrades Advice Bureau telling you how to hack the bus stop posters and selling the tools for £5

Should I do a wonderful jape like saying 'they're up!!!' To keep you going or such ? You joke, but the adrenaline from that was lovely.

"LONDON — A dystopian theme park masterminded by British artist Banksy said Friday its website had received six million hits, causing error messages for people attempting to buy tickets.
"Dismaland spokeswoman Jo Brooks told NBC News' U.K. partner ITV News the site had not crashed, but the error was produced by too many people refreshing the page. "
"People should try again by 12 o'clock," she said before the tickets went on sale. "But don't keep hitting refresh."

it's like when it's 100 degrees outside and everyone has their AC on, then it causes a power outage, then when they finally fuckin' fix the power grid, the AC's already having been on blows it again. #BanksyCycle #AirConditioningProblems

Well if they can't get this fixed today, then the queue might not be too bad, as nobody will have booked tickets.

I got through several times, after all, I was hitting refresh five million times a minute, and the same calendar jpeg greeted me. No active or jammed ticketing system.

People that aren't really interested read about how hard it is to acquire tickets, then see it as either a challenge or a moneymaking opportunity. Then rush to the website. It's also a bit like people that stand around looking at a terrible crash and just can't quite tear themselves away.
