Are you guys able to buy a ticket without putting a name in for it? I think last year I was able to buy a ticket that was "blank" (meaning I didn't have to enter a name during check out) and then could link it with the MyDisney account once it was emailed to me.
The other day when I purchased using the Magic Key presale I had to enter names for each ticket I wanted to buy. Since I would like to buy an extra one for a friend, but I'm not sure WHICH friend will be able to join me yet, I would like to keep it unlinked until I verify closer to the date with my friend. That way if there is an issue and I can't make it, they can still use their ticket since it's not linked to my account, and in case a friend has availability or travel issues closer to the date and another friend can join me it won't have the wrong name on it, etc.
Edit: Also, any dates sold out yet? 54 minute wait still for me. I'm specifically interested in Oct 23rd, 25th, and maybe 29th...
