But 10 seconds before the clock strikes 12pm, you can pull the trigger on the refresh button and hopefully earn yourself a decent spot in the queue.
It goes without saying, but under no circumstances should you reload the page once you are finally in the queue, as you could end up being booted to the back of the line.
Your spot should automatically update itself as ticket sales progress, so although you may need the patience of a saint, it's best to just sit tight.

In response to the backlash, Ticketmaster said: "Ticketmaster does not use any form of algorithmic or surge pricing, which changes prices automatically in response to consumer demand. Ticketmaster also does not use any form of differential pricing by which the price of a ticket will depend on the characteristics or behaviour of the purchaser."
According to the popular ticketing site, the 'event organiser determines the ticket prices for the event in advance' and 'prices never change during a customer's purchase journey'.
