So....... what? Do you just reload the page and hope you see something different? Cuz I started reloading my page at 10:59 and all I got was a smooth transition from the "All Frames Unlocked Today" page from the other day to the "All Frames Unlocked Today" page for today. Nothing else. Am I doing something wrong?

You guys all have to "log in" via Facebook every time right?

Grats Ryan! Nice work! Also, thank you to the powers that be for giving us another chance later today.
Mine locked up too. Thought I had a shot today when that happened and then utter sadness kicked in
@Rusty, it seems we just need to refresh the page at the designated time and pray to the Super 8 gods. I've read form other users it's the last frame that unlocks the clip and wins. Other reports (like the one Chainsaw mentioned) is a previous winners clip was #13. It may be random (certainly appears to be that way).
I have to keep telling myself even if I don't win, I will be rewarded with a truly awesome movie
EDIT: About the facebook logins. If I go to the Development Room page without being signed up to Facebook, it says to login through Facebook.

I kept hitting page refresh 5 minutes before the designated time.
When the time came...all I got was a screen telling me all the frames have been unlocked and to try back at 3:00 PDT today.
I hope I'm in the office at that time.
And yes, you have to sign in to face book to be part of this unlocking process.

Which page are you refreshing? The one that says "Come back at 11PDT"? That's the page I was refreshing and for some reason it asked me to log in via Facebook and then it crashed on me... Any thoughts?

That's the page I am refreshing. On the second day of this contest I had a similar issue where it asked me to login through facebook in the middle of refreshing my page. Maybe too many refreshes back to back glitches it up?

The page is just under a lot of load.
I keep refreshing that page and have got a frame each time I've tried, but I do have some experience with the F5 button
I don't have to log on each time, but occasionally the login with facebook page is displayed momentarily before the logged in page is displayed.

When i hit refresh at 1:00 on the dot. It told me that the site was down, then i hit it again and it worked. Maybe it was due to the massive amounts of people trying?
PS: I know someone else on here has won as well.. how do they contact you? I haven't posted my address on facebook..

Thanks for the info. This was honestly the first day that I've been able to try for an unlock. And of course I'll be out and about come 3pm. Oh well. Seeing the movie on Tuesday and as tether said, that's the real reward for me!

I've been curious about that myself. I believe one of the other winners on a Facebook comment mentioned he had to verify his shirt size in an email.

I'm no stranger to the F5 myself Zort, I was right there with you during all the LOSTargs print fun!
Anyway, when you see the facebook login info, do you just keep refreshing or do you click the login?
