EDIT: Well, I guess there's now the day-before TicketBastard option, but good luck getting in on that! There might be 1 ticket per 100 people trying to get in.

To make a longish story (somewhat?) shorter- last year, both John and I first had the option to get Centre Court tickets for women's QF day via ticketmaster UK- and at first decided just to book one ticket, thinking to save money. As we were taking the bus back to the hotel, we realized that we had made a bad, exhausted decision- went back on a computer one hour later- and still managed to get one more Centre Court ticket.

So, my best guess is that a lot may depend on what day you are going? Maybe it's actually easier to get a Centre Court ticket later in the tournament? (I've read some posts elsewhere that last year it was considered easy to get women's finals tickets via Ticketmaster UK- albeit not the best seats of course.) Or maybe it's best to just keep on trying? Or maybe it was just ridiculous luck? IN any case, we'll try to get tickets this way again. Since we already have Centre Court tickets on the first Thursday, we'll try to get to the hotel computer at 9 a.m. that day for tickets for the next day, etc......
