[Off-topic] mousey_:
Also I'm not sure that this will work:

// if we're on Nibras's Google form, post it to let the world know we're in!
if(window.location.href == 'https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?hl=en_GB&formkey=dGdRLU05b2xiWHJLaUhHc3dRdEo5VEE6MQ#gid=0'){
document.getElementsByName('submit')[0].click();
}

The reason for that is in Nibras's original script if the page we are looking at is the 'specialLink' and it's not a Field Trial then he opens the Available Form page before submitting the status

{[B]if(window.location.href=="localStorage.getItem('specialLink')"){[/B]window.open('https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dHdwLUZOTmlOWHNvbzR0M19iSTNzdmc6MQ');
alert('Google Plus Registrations are now open!');}}
}

if(window.location.href=="https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?hl=en_GB&formkey=dGdRLU05b2xiWHJLaUhHc3dRdEo5VEE6MQ#gid=0")
{document.getElementsByName('submit')[0].click();}

In your script you do not open this Google Form and so window.location.href cant be the form as we're on the Google+ page, also its not the spreadsheet that he opens but a page that updates the spreadsheet that people won't/shouldn't be using.

I would add it back in like this:

var node = document.querySelector('div.a-H-Bd-U');
if(node != null && node.innerHTML.match(/Field Trial/im)){
// keep a count of how many times we've tried this
// Added by thrasher9 (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15411512&postcount=131)
var count = localStorage.getItem('specialLinkCount') + 1;
localStorage.setItem('specialLinkCount', count);
GM_log('Attempt #' + count + ' failed. Refreshing...');

window.setTimeout(function(){
if(localStorage.getItem('specialLink') != null){
// Added by _mousey (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15438164&postcount=179)
var d = new Date();
window.location.href = localStorage.getItem('specialLink') + '&c=' + d.getTime();
}
}, 5000);
}else if(window.location.href=="localStorage.getItem('specialLink')"){
spsubmit = window.open('https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dHdwLUZOTmlOWHNvbzR0M19iSTNzdmc6MQ','spsubmit');
spsubmit.document.getElementsByName('submit')[0].click();
}

This opens the From in a seperate window spsubmit and then submits the form.

This way the user is still looking at his Google+ registration form but has also submitted to the spreadsheet that registration is open.

You can then remove:

// if we're on Nibras's Google form, post it to let the world know we're in!
if(window.location.href == 'https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?hl=en_GB&formkey=dGdRLU05b2xiWHJLaUhHc3dRdEo5VEE6MQ#gid=0'){
document.getElementsByName('submit')[0].click();
}

I'm no expert in JS so please correct me if I'm wrong

We did this work hurriedly. We wanted something up and out. If you have a better version, test it and if it works well, upload it.

I guess you are right but am not really sure if you can make a reference to another window and control the form in it. So, that's why I used this. If your method works, it'd make the code a bit cleaner.
[Off-topic] Poidl:
There are already too much notification rules defined for the sheet (it seems that there is a maximum of 50). Maybe some guys could delete their rules if they are joined to google+ in order to let new guys (like me) get the notification?
[Off-topic] nibras_reeza:
I'll see if I could lift the limit.

Update:

I don't see anything about a limit being mentioned. :/ This might have to do with your own account.

Yes! Finally just got in thanks to the reload script! I let it run the whole day when I first got it with no success, but today I got in very quickly. Never would have lucked out and hit the login window on my own by hitting F5, thanks! :D
[Off-topic] chandanbs:

Hi!

My page does not seem to reload... I have an invite and I have changed the line 45 to my language. Any tips?

I have opened the J-console of Chrome, it states Attempt #1111111111 failed. Refreshing...

But it states the high number from start, it does not increment. Any ideas?

[Off-topic] dusttones:
I've got the console open and the log says, "No room in the beta, refreshing." I'm not noticing the tab reload or the log get more than one entry. Any ideas on what I'm missing here?

[Off-topic] Zombiac:
I've just closed mine because I've had it running for about 3 hours straight on 4

opened windows all with different invites but have had absolutely no luck at all

in getting any one of them to let me in and now it seems that my invites are

becoming void because I click them and it says error 404 not found.
[Off-topic] ztag100:
How long is it between joining times? I've been running the script for about 30 minutes so far.
[Off-topic] swali77:
Just wanna say thanks. I received your invite last night but had no success getting in. I found this thread because although I couldnt join Google+ I could still view your profile and saw the link in your posts this morning. I installed the script at 12:22 p.m. CST and was in the door at 2:34 p.m. CST. Thanks again, passing your Amazon and PayPal links around with the link to your thread.
[Off-topic] xinfinityoO:
sorry i dont use chrome.. how do u install this script on the latest versioj of chrome
[Off-topic] nibras_reeza:
Thanks! :)
[Off-topic] nibras_reeza:
Install the latest version of Chrome or use Firefox with Greasemonkey.
[Off-topic] dsotm82:
So just let the script run overnight and hope the invite "opens up" during one of the refreshes?
[Off-topic] nibras_reeza:
Nope. Run it when you are up. lol
[Off-topic] xinfinityoO:
anyone had any luck with this ..as of from this point(time)
[Off-topic] neog17:
running straight for 4 hours with no luck
[Off-topic] xinfinityoO:
i guess google must have totally disabled it
[Off-topic] nibras_reeza:
Both the spreadsheet URL and my version of the script have been updated.
[Off-topic] DominikReber:
Now for a noob like me, please explain how to use it?

I've installed it into Chrome. Now what do I have to do next?
[Off-topic] amoughnieh:
There seems to be a problem with arabic language. The script doesn't work whenever the page is in arabic, however, when I manually change the language to English, the script works for one time and brings me back the arabic page! and it stops refreshing.

I faced this problem on my desktop, but yesterday, on my laptop it worked like charm without bringing me back to the arabic page, although they are on the same network. I know google decides the language used based on my IP, but is there a way to disable that?
[Off-topic] nibras_reeza:
Get an invite and click comment on the post and the script will take care of the rest. Make sure you are signed into your Google Account before you do these.
[Off-topic] neog17:
I'm using ultrasurf to solve that problem.
[Off-topic] Vifz:
Just like amoughnieh, the script do not work with French language.

When I try to change manually to english at the bottom of the page, it works just once and back to french and stop refreshing.

Any simple modification of the script for internationnal member please?

Anyway, good work! will keep an eye open on possible update.
[Off-topic] amoughnieh:
yes but proxy slows down the internet
[Off-topic] Gr4v3:
Try changing line 42:

if(node != null && node.innerHTML.match(/Field Trial/im)){

(for French) to:

if(node != null && node.innerHTML.match(/phase de tests/im)){
[Off-topic] Vifz:
Awesome! it is working! Easy and simple :)

Thanks you for your help.

Now just need to wait patiently
[Off-topic] slayerking:
Been running it for the last 12 hours(since 10.30 this morning, 10.42pm now) and nothing.
[Off-topic] zozsoy:
people seem to be updating the public sheet but I'm still getting "Field Trial" with the script. I'm trying with 3 different proxies, too.
[Off-topic] nibras_reeza:
Yea changing line 42 to the div name of your desired language will make it work but would involve digging into the code and finding the name.

A solution that anyone can use is a US proxy.
[Off-topic] jaszek:
Ok, to all you who think this doesn't work. You have to get an e-mail from someone on google+ sharing something. Click the view or comment link, wait for the page to open, and have that page in a separate window and look at it from time to time. I installed the script last night, got in few minutes ago.
[Off-topic] DominikReber:
Script is working, but you have to change the search string if you're using another language. Just changing google language doesnt help, as it is not refreshing.
[Off-topic] d.gxixbxl:
I changed both, google language and Chrome language and its working for me.

Thanks for the script.
[Off-topic] DominikReber:
Ha I got in - yeah!
[Off-topic] amoughnieh:
The problem is that you can't use non-latin letters in the script. it would be better if indicators other than the div. with 'Field Trial' were used, something that wouldn't be affected by changing the language, there must be something.

Please experts, figure something else out
[Off-topic] neog17:
I've been trying sing up with the script for more than 8h without luck. And in less than 5 min I just sing up 2 accounts using the google+ Android app.
[Off-topic] gpsmoucer:
You just opened the android app, selected your account... and it let you in?

I've been trying the app, but after selecting my account it always gives me the standard "You need an invitation." I HAVE and invitation, but it doesn't allow me to enter it.
[Off-topic] :
please invite me

vr06vr06@gmail.com

to the script
[Off-topic] neog17:
With one account at the first try I could sing in, with the second It takes me 5 min. Open the program, select the account...trying to connect..fail...blablabla click on close button and trying again. Maybe I was lucky but I think it's worth a try.

Good luck
[Off-topic] gpsmoucer:
Giving it a try. Funny - as I get faster at opening > clicking my account... the app gets faster at denying me.
[Off-topic] jaszek:
You were lucky. You happen to click it when registration reopened. lol
[Off-topic] neog17:
Yeah but I was trying with the script at the same time...and it wasn't working.
[Off-topic] floomat:
seems it doesn't work anymore..i can't get in. script was running the whole day :(

i also tried logging in via app, no way. :(

ive got 3 invites already ._.
[Off-topic] jaszek:
The thing is, you never know when google will open registration. I got in at about 11:00EST
[Off-topic] wascaa:
Is someone still refreshing the google spreadsheet?

It's been dead quiet for a while now....
[Off-topic] gpsmoucer:
I wonder since my window running the script eventually ends at an error page after an hour or so.
[Off-topic] mightysween:
The spreadsheet suddenly only has one row of data. Hmmm...
[Off-topic] CMC_PUBLIKUM:
Hi.

I sign up on my google account, installed the "reloader.user.js" (the one on original post), went to my gmail and to an invitation that a friend sent me. After that, it opened the main page of google+ but it doesn't refresh.

I'm from Portugal.

Thanks
[Off-topic] gpsmoucer:
And I'm in!!! Script worked. Thank YOU!
[Off-topic] thrasher9:
Congrats! I'm jealous.
[Off-topic] ezakuroy:
Got in, started running at about 10:30 AM EST and got in about 3:30 PM EST. Perhaps the same group as gpsmoucer?

Cheers!
[Off-topic] maerturk:
Works Great

I had to run a few hours but successfully notified by script and accepted to G+
[Off-topic] CMC_PUBLIKUM:
But the main page of Google+ use to refresh automatically?
[Off-topic] gpsmoucer:
Honestly, now that I'm in I could have waited. Since no one I know is on it yet, there's not much to do. And they definitely have to work out some of the UI issues.
[Off-topic] mightysween:
Mine does not seem to refresh properly either. I get the "No room in the beta, reloading" message in the console, but it doesn't appear to be doing anything.

Incidentally, the link in my invite goes to a 404 unavailable page. So I have to click on the red "Learn More" button. Could this be the issue? If so, do I just need a new invite to make it refresh properly?
[Off-topic] thrasher9:
Thanks gpsmoucer, you've given me hope and patience.

I know I'll be feeling the same once I get in.
[Off-topic] xinfinityoO:
still no luck :(
[Off-topic] mightysween:
I just can't seem to make the script work...I am assuming the invitation is somehow expired or blocked. If anyone is willing to send me a new invite (post/comment) let me know and I will PM my email address. In the meantime I will continue every hour or so with the Android in one hand and the other hand doing a URL paste repeatedly. :)
[Off-topic] talal&nawaf:
still no luck also , well since each one of us if we get lucky and get in will not have any friend to talk to in google plus, how about we talk to each other :-)
[Off-topic] floomat:
15 hours without any luck, damn this makes me sad :(
[Off-topic] Kamikaze.:

[Off-topic] slayerking:

[Off-topic] auricom:
is that spreadsheet auto-updating or do you have to update it manually?

It's now July 6, and the SS hasn't been updated since Jul 5 @ 10 am..

Just want to know, is all. Thanks for the good work Adam & Nibras.
[Off-topic] nibras_reeza:
Multiquote doesn't work that well with me. So, here are my answers.

1) Spreadsheet updates as long as someone is running my version of the script. It has to be run by only one person. No one I know runs it continuously but we do run it. So, it stays updated but it might have missed some times that registrations were open.

2) Adam's script works only with English. In line 42, there's a reference to a div name. This might be different in other languages. If so, change this into the name in your language.

3) Greasemonkey refreshes but it can be susceptible to cache problems. Clear your cache and cookies and set a small or preferably no cache.

4) The invite has no expiry as far as I know. By sharing a post, I'm telling Google you are my friend. So, they have to let you in sooner or later because I want you in.

5) The invite allows you to register but the script lets you know when you can register. The script is simply a helper. It doesn't allow you to register any faster. It just save you the work of manually refreshing.

6) Try to register as soon as you receive the invite. I know this is not possible with the delay of many hours but if you see an invite in your inbox, don't leave it for later.

7) If you need a new invite, resubmit your email on my form at https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dE9oR3hYWmR0bEJ5X2ZUUHlpQkxnemc6MQ

8) I have not confirmed it but it might be that Google is restricting access based on locale as well.
[Off-topic] nibras_reeza:
A tip:

I noticed that registrations were mostly open around 3-4pm SLST which would translate into 4:30-5:30am in EST.

Am running the spreadsheet updater myself from now.

[Off-topic] wywywywy:
Nearly 24 hours of refreshing.

Still haven't got in yet :(
[Off-topic] nibras_reeza:
Hmm weird. I wish Google made things a little easier. Maybe like in GMail. Number of invites per account is limited but every unique invitation gives a 100% chance for registration.

I'm not doing a lot. I'm just sending invites but it annoys me that Google is making it so hard for people to join.
[Off-topic] grkmaster:
hey man .. you sent me a invite a few days back but when i click the click in the email "View or comment on Nibras Reeza's post » " it takes me to your page but nowhere to be found is a button to comment - Im logged in and it shows the few comments and on top saying join google+ .. does this mean i need another invite to retry again?
[Off-topic] Zombiac:
I just seen this post about ohio and thought I guess I'll try running the script again

to see if I can finally get in nibras you sent me an invite but I haven't been able to

get in yet so we'll see what happens today.
[Off-topic] nibras_reeza:

Wouuuhou!

Nibras' spreadsheet shows that there are still some "available" times!

I started to loose hope!

BTW, where is located the client updating the spreadsheet Nibras?

I've been refreshing for 24 hours, with UK and French proxies and so far no luck...
[Off-topic] grkmaster:
IM so stupid .. i read it then i forgot what i read .. :x lol

i apologize
[Off-topic] jaszek:
Wait, I just came up with an idea. Is every e-mail sent unique? What if, lets say, I forward my email I got from nibraz to other people, and they use that view comment link. You still have to wait for the registrations to open, but you don't have to wait the long hours before you get the actual e-mail. Hmmmm.....
[Off-topic] ljmunz:
Just got in after about an hour running the script, thanks!!
[Off-topic] zozsoy:

There's gotta be another way.

i'm from Thailand, is it possible to get invite from this script?
[Off-topic] mightysween:
Strange... yesterday the script would not refresh with my invite on three different computers in just about every combination of browser, Greasemonkey, Tampermonkey.

Today, they all refresh fine and the script is running on all 3 computers with different proxies. I wonder if some of those invite URLs are "blacklisted" by default and only become active when added to the whitelist?? Just speculating as to why none of my invite links worked yesterday (404 errors) and they work fine today.
[Off-topic] Changopelon:

I'm assuming the page will stop reloading once it is open and take you to a sign up page ?
[Off-topic] pcp135:
how does one run the script? I have it installed in Chrome but the page does not refresh.

Thats correct. Once invitations open, you will see a field where you put in your name and other stuff like that.

Hey I am pretty confused:

I got an invite

and went on it it just redirects me to the normal google plus page the one saying keep me posted and also if i open the spreadsheet i cant edit anything

can someone post alinkk to a step to step guide
[Off-topic] jaszek:
Once you get the invite, install the script, click the view or comment link in the email, and let that page refresh. It'll tell you invites are closed, btu it'll refresh every 5 seconds, and once they are open, it'll stop refreshing with the form. Do it quick before they close the invites.
[Off-topic] :
but for me the invite just redirects to the google+ page saying keep me posteed
[Off-topic] mightysween:
So, I see several "Available" times in the spreadsheet from this morning, but I can confirm that it did not open up for me at those times. There has to be some method to the madness...it must be the "gpinv" value in the invite URL. How else would the registration page open for some of us and not for others?

EDIT: Hey, it even opened up while I was typing this. But not for any of my systems, nor my android.
[Off-topic] :

[Off-topic] thrasher9:
I didn't think about locale based. That's an interesting thought. I know I had the script running when it was supposedly open and I never got a hit. I'm still using an invite link from last Saturday, I wonder if the invites go stale.
[Off-topic] dusttones:
I'm using one from Monday, July 4th and still didn't get a hit when they were reported open.
