So no scalping and no one under 16 years old running about by themselves, not bad.
Wow, so super bummed right now, but also pretty disappointed with the way these ticket purchases are being handled. So i click the buy tickets button the moment it was available and then what do i see? "
Pending tickets are currently with other customers.
They may become available, so check back soon."
... -_-' Was i the only person confused by this?!?! Does that mean i should go back to the minecon page and click buy ticket again? Do i refresh the page im on? or did i lose my place because i was just supposed to stay on the first page that popped up and wait till it was my turn? so as im franticly trying to re click the buy button to open 50 new pages, refresh another fifty pages, and check a 3rd set of 50 pages ive decided to just leave alone, i flip back to the mojang page to check the twitter feed and try to figure out why the counter was obviously broken and i find out that the tickets were sold out in 3 seconds!?!? can someone who did get tickets please tell me what i was supposed to do so i can try again on the next batch cause right now i feel like i have better odds of winning the lottery than going to minecon this year

I already got my ticket, however, I am currently helping my friend buy his ticket. You do not have a place in line, on the ticket page (http://www.eventbrite.com/event/7320354377/) you will have to refresh the page until you see a button saying something along the lines of "buy tickets". Once you see this, click it as fast as possible (only once, if you click it multiple times, it will only refresh the page and you will loose your claim if you had it). The tickets will be re-released if people who have already claimed a ticket fail to complete the purchase. Just keep trying. Good luck!

Oh wow. Future warning to those of you who plan on buying the ticket to just get the cape. I think you actually have to go to the event to get the cape, so if you plan on buying the ticket and not going to the event, it's probably not going to happen.
Gladly, I GOT MY TICKET!!
According to Mojang staff, all 2500 tickets of batch 1 were claimed within the first "3 SECONDS" of the ticket release. That's ridiculous!
Great job on getting your ticket! I wish I had one too though.

thanks, i feel like this process could have been explained better. i do feel a bit better though, knowing that they have made it so the tickets cant be scalped. oh well 2 more chances i guess (i have lowered my hopes considerably though).

They didn't prompt for your Minecraft username at all during the purchase process. Meaning they will probably ask for it at the door instead. They probably caught on that a lot of people were only buying the ticket to get a cape, instead of buying the ticket to attend the event.

If anyone would be interested in selling any extra tickets, I would be interested in buying 1 single ticket. I am in the orlando area, so this really sucks for me >.>

I believe that you get your cape through a verification with your Minecraft Associated email.
Which is done at the event? I mean if people just buy the tickets and don't go they are really screwing over those that want to go.
I agree completely, it is selfish for people to take the experience of a lifetime away from someone who really cares, just so that they can brag and show off their cape to others...

No, I believe that when you but your ticket(s) online, you have to enter your Minecraft email.
I purchased my ticket and all it asked for was your email (not even asking for the one associated with your Minecraft account), first name, last name, and credit card information. I'm almost 100% certain you will only get the cape if you go to the event.

There are two more batches of tickets being sold. One batch of 2500 on Friday, and another 2500 on Saturday. http://minecon.mojang.com/

Alright seeing as some are saying that it's associated with email, then the only way to get a cape is to attend the event. Seeing as if you bought a ticket for your friend or family member, it would only work this way. Seems easier the way they did it last year although.
$150... crap...
i wanted to take my little brother... now i cant... and i am not going without him :< not after i promised him id take him if i went.
Oh well.

The only email I got from Mojang was the confirmation for my ticket purchase.

The hotels were a pain though. I was hoping for one closer but it is 8/10 of a mile. I was hoping 1/2 or less.
