WMチケ、申し込みできました！

昨日より取り組んでいたＷＭことドイツＷ杯チケット一次販売申し込み、Javaをダウンロードし直したり、IEを5.1.6から5.1.7に地味に上げたり、入り方を変えてドイツ語サイトで申し込んでみたりといろいろやってみたものの結局ダメ。で、ヤフーの掲示板でやはりマックでは不都合があるという書き込みを見つけ、家からの申し込みは断念。会社でウィンドウズのマシンを借りてやってみたらサクッとなんの問題もストレスもためらいもなく、成功。ウィンドウズの人からすれば、なにやってんのアンタって感じだろうよ。やっぱしマックってダメな…。前回02年のときは、IEはダメだったけど、ネスケだとうまくいった。今年はネスケでもダメで、退化してる。OS XだったらMacでも申し込めたのだろうか。ま、とにかく現段階では、Customor Self Serviceってところにアクセスして、自分の申し込みが受理されていることを確認するのがうれしい年頃だ。けっこう当たっちゃったりすんじゃない？？　そういや02年のときはここに緑とか赤のボールのアイコンが表示されてたっけなー。メロンとか呼んでいたのがなつかしい。今回はどんな模様なんでしょうかな。

記念に確認メールでも。

Dear Sir Jiro Takai,

We are pleased to confirm receipt of your application for 2006 FIFA World
Cup (TM) tickets dated 22/03/2005.

Tickets will be allocated following the conclusion of the first sales period
in mid-to-end April 2005. If the number of applications exceeds the number
of tickets available for your chosen category at a specific match,
allocation will be made randomly (via a draw).
If you are successful and are allocated tickets, you will be advised of
your allocation by e-mail. Charges will only be applied to your account/credit
card if you are successful in the allocation or draw. In the event of
non-payment, your application will immediately be cancelled. Please ensure
that you have sufficient funds in your account to cover all potential costs
at the appropriate time and check that you have submitted accurate payment
details.
Applications from persons subject to stadium banning orders will be
refused, retrospectively if necessary.
If you apply for tickets for more than one match, it is possible that you
will not be allocated tickets to all such matches. In this event, you will
be obliged to accept the tickets for the matches for which you have been
allocated i.e. the fact that you may not receive all the tickets which you
applied for will not be a valid reason to cancel your entire application.
Please note however, that if you are successfully allocated tickets for a
match, you will receive all of the tickets which you applied for in respect
of that match.

We are delighted that your application included a request to receive
information from the DFB, FIFA and the Official Partners / Official
Suppliers in the future. Please click the link to confirm your request:

Kind regards
