Thanks for this info. I hadn't realized a code was emailed. I went on the queue exactly at 12 (I think...it happened automatically), and I'm number 815 in line! My wait time was about a half hour.
I guess you need the code to purchase, not to get on line.
I do love that they tell you your place in line and how long your wait is. It seems like a much better system than the Public's. (My fingers are also crossed, though, that it continues to run smoothly.)

Even if you do get your hands on the code, an email I received from City Center stated that they reserve the right to cancel the order of anyone who uses it without being a member. While I don't know how strict they'll be about that, it's worth keeping in mind.
Success! I got to be first in line about 12:30, and was redirected to City Center's site. I put in the code and was told "sold out," but I saw another place to put the code in, so I re-entered it and was shown the seating chart.
There were plenty of balcony seats available for the Wednesday show, and I bought two for $75 each, plus fees of course.
Tip: If you're interested for next time, get a free IDNYC card, and you can get a free one-year membership to City Center. (You have to actually go to City Center, show them the card, and wait for your City Center card to arrive though.)

Was 701 in line and got G12 in mezzanine. Didn't want to spend more than $125. It appeared all the seats in the orchestra were $250 each. Is that correct?
Right now there are over 100 seats available in each section for Wednesday's performance, so I would think there will still be tickets available in the general sale.
I got a pair in the balcony for Wednesday ($75 each) and was pleased with how smoothly everything went.
I was lucky enough to snag a ticket front row dead center. I just snapped it up. Is the first row spaced far enough back from the stage that it'll be a good seat?
Just FYI for anyone seeking to purchase remaining tickets today; the count-down page is already up waiting to assign everyone in the waiting room. I suggest you open the page up.

Thank you for the heads-up! Just refreshed the page to join the count-down!
