I don't know if this is the write forum to post this on... If it's not sorry to bother you!

I'm going to need to get into a server which can accept ~x users; however, ~2*x users will be trying to get in. So maybe, ~30 spaces on the server are avaliable, with ~60 users trying to get in. In order to get in, you have to keep reloading/refreshing the page.

I was wondering, do I increase my chances of getting in if I open multiple browsers, and set them to reload the page every second? i.e. would attempting to get in on multiple browsers (on the same network) increase my chances?

Also, are there any ways to increase my chances? For example, are there way to tell the server that my packets are priority or something?

By the way, I know some PHP/HTML/CSS/C++ if that makes a difference.

Thanks.
