I had a look in the early hours and this had risen to 35 in the North (only stand I counted). The ticket website remains quite easy to disrupt for highly committed individuals/groups and I believe that explains why there were good seats still available in every stand, including islands of three, four and five that stood out like a sore thumb.
When everyone is able to remove ('reserve') tickets from sale for 20 minutes at a time, without needing to be eligible to purchase or even signed into the website, I'd wager some are endeavouring to 'protect' tickets for the next priority window. I quickly tested how straightforward it was and added 40 seats to my basket using my phone (20 seats is the max any visitor is allowed to 'reserve' but I doubled this using Google's incognito mode). Sure enough, two-thirds of E block was instantly unavailable to purchase and could have been for the full 20 minutes, though I released them straight away and they were instantly available again
Now trying to hold onto that many tickets is unwieldy, particularly when you have a few thousand visitors to compete with across Monday morning. Keeping alive a small group of tickets until 10am Wednesday, on the other hand, that's doable, especially because you have the advantages of knowing their location and controlling the instant they reappear on the site. Visiting our ticket site three times an hour every sociable hour in order to resecure your basket is obsessive, but a group of internet-savvy friends could break this down into a shift or two per person per day. Still obsessive of course, but then so is camping overnight for Wimbledon. Take the gamble that the early hours will be safe, most of your competition will have already purchased RV seats by then or decided to watch on a TV screen instead, they won't be checking in again at midnight or 5am for 'returned' tickets, and if the night's been kind to you then the Tuesday will be much quieter. | | | |

I think it might be wise to remove/edit this post pronto. Probably wouldn't induce such behaviour, but you never know. |  |

They close the sales window for a few hours before they are released at 10am now I believe. |  | | |
