marcoavgousti Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 If it is a server problem been clogged up with to many ppl trying to authenticate game at same time, then why dont we use a brain cell and leave it for an hour or 2 to allow some ppl to filter through. I dont think constantly trying to authentice helps anyone. I take my hat of to u if that is what u have already done coz patience really is a virtue on these fourms which alot of ppl dont have. "blah blah blah u spent money on game" i know so have i, take a seat and wait ur turn. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
champlodge Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Don't understand why SI/SEGA haven't suggested this or given false times for a likely fix so majority of people lay off the server until then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcoavgousti Posted November 14, 2008 Author Share Posted November 14, 2008 they have. Football Manager 2009 Activation SEGA are aware that there have been some problems with the activation of Football Manager 2009 today. This has been due to a combination of issues relating to the printing of keycodes and the huge demand for the game A solution is in place and is starting to clear the problem, we are confident that the issue will be solved today. The chances of successful authentication are increasing hourly. At this point consumers still experiencing difficulties are advised to leave a 10 minute gap between authentication attempts. SEGA apologises for the disappointment caused by the problems with activating the game and asks for Football Manager fans to remain patient. http://www.sega.co.uk/news/?n=2532 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

playmaker Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 As the OP suggests, if you want to play the game as soon as possible then the quickest way is to stop clogging the servers up. It's like 2 people trying to walk through a door at the same time. If both keep trying no-one gets anywhere. If one has the sense to stand back and let the other one through they both get through quicker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcoavgousti Posted November 14, 2008 Author Share Posted November 14, 2008 Ofcourse i want to play the game as soon as possible. but its common sense, do u travel down the M1 when there is a big accident or do u wait for the accident to clear up first then go down it??? the more ppl that attempt to travel down the M1 whilst the accident is there the longer the tailback therefore takes longer to get through. Nah im no asshole, im just speaking sense and u dont like it. its turds like u who have nothing better to do who make a small thing a problem. go watch a porno or somehting u may learn a thing or 2.

thnigelfc Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Actually I believe a few of us on here.DID mention to sega/si about setting different times for the authentication but thread got closed... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
zimmerquinn Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Good idea, but you have to think about how many of the actual players are in here at the forums at any given time. How many people have bought the game today? Don't know but a couple of hundredthousands maybe. How many are in here right now? Max 10000. I'm not sure that the effect of all of us laying low would be enough in the bigger picture. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcoavgousti Posted November 14, 2008 Author Share Posted November 14, 2008 nothing wise about it mate. if the majority of ppl on the forum( there are over 5000) left it for an hour or 2 to allow alot of the backed up traffic clear then it gives the rest of us a clear run at autheticating. or we can all just sit here till the early hours of the morning still in the same position(which is probably what will happen since ppl wont listen to reason). Im not trying to come across as a asshole, im just trying to help ppl play FM coz thats what i want aswell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bboy123 Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 ohhhh right so we should all get off the server so a "few" others mainly yourself can get access and start playing the game? id rather keep having a go rather than sitting back and not doing anything, after all i paid for this bloody game, i want to play it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcoavgousti Posted November 14, 2008 Author Share Posted November 14, 2008 lol its a shame that u cant actually think of anyone other than urself, im going to use my weight bench for an hour to pass some time. u keep trying mate i hope it works for u i really do, u can have my pass ill let u go before me its just a shame other ppl cant do the same for everyone else. i know im ****ing in the wind but an orderly queue really does beat a mass stampede, but if u can work out how to manage an orderly queue on here im all ears coz i havent got a clue. Goodluck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
