2. The condition of being delayed; detainment.

I didn't see where they actually said they would email us on the 30th. In regard to a "delay," your expectation/assumption that we'd be notified one way or the other on the 30th seems misguided.

How are my expectations/assumptions misguided, especially when the update states there is a delay? When the word delay is used doesn't that mean 'slower than expected or desired'?
We'll get our notice soon enough..it's all good! :thumbup:

Maybe they are trying to get the kinks worked out before the 2012 North American tour? I'm trying to bring some positive rays in on this delayed situation. Cheers!

Well - Hope you weren't expecting alot to happen in those 12 hours:
8:30 PM: Call it a night - 'update status' by saying 'See ya tomorrow!'
8:45 PM: Grab a beer and wings on the way home
10:15 PM: Get home - jump in the shower - off to bed
7:30 AM: Alarm goes off - crawl out of bed - start coffee
7:40 AM: Morning shower
8:00 AM: Pour a large cup of half coffee/half Bailey's
8:15 AM: Check Online Forums -
8:30 AM: Jump in car to head to the Office and Try to Finish Ticket Requests
Let's let the Tenclub people sleep in a bit, grab some donuts, and then head back to the office before we start complaining.
With such small venues, I know the chances are good that I won't even get tickets. But it doesn't make me appreciate what they are doing any less. They are going out of their way to make sure we have a first run at decent tickets.
You know how many other major bands have fanclubs that do that? VERY FEW.
Go on any other band's forums and you'll see people complaining that their shitty ticketmaster presale password was for the worst seats in the house. You'll see them complaining that the presale password they were given was the same as what was given to 6 local radio stations.
We are fortunate and shouldn't be sending messages complaining that everything they are doing is not in OUR preferred timetable. We should all be sending them emails thanking them for their tireless work on OUR behalf.
They are working overtime so that YOU can have a good time. But YOU are somehow being inconvenienced because it's taking too long? Piss off with your negativity, seriously. Let your membership lapse so someone more appreciative can sit in your seat.

You really think only a small fraction of people will get tickets?

Well do the math. Doesn't the Tenclub only get like 10% of the tickets for tenclub members?
On a 5000 seat venue that is 500 tickets.
When they play 30,000 seat arenas they have 3000 to give out and still sell out of fanclub tickets.
So 1 out of 6(+) people who want them, will get tickets this time around.

Yeah - I can do the math. Just wasn't sure if the demand for an EV show would be the same as a PJ show. :dunno
Tuesday, January 31st 9:40 AM Pacific: Sorry for the delay, we'll are wrapping up the drawing this morning and will be sending out confirmations later today. Your patience is appreciated!
And so you see, I have come to doubt All that I once held as true I stand alone without beliefs The only truth I know is you.

12 after 9am on the west coast. Time for 10C elves to get to the office and start picking names out of hats.
Kind of reminds me when the would give tickets by tables (groups of member #'s) -
I remember in Vegas they has us all in a room and would call 'table 1' and everyone jumped up...
I remember that! Was that 2000? 2003?

Yesterdays "today" turned out to be tomorrow. Today's "today" could possibly be tomorrow too, because "today" is actually yesterdays tomorrow.

I checked my PayPal earlier and the pending charges not there anymore. Does this mean I didn't get drawn or does it time out at some point? Anybody else check theirs?

Q: I entered the drawing via PayPal a couple of days ago and saw an authorization on my card at the time, but today the authorization has disappeared. Am I still in the drawing?
A: Yes, you are still in the drawing. Some credit cards have timing parameters that are slightly different than others. It’s nothing to worry about, this is normal. You are still in the drawing and we still have the ability to charge that card if you are selected in the drawing. Just be sure not to spend those funds in the meantime!

I've only used the 10C for 2 shows so far, and both "drawings" have been a disaster. There are a lot of holier-than-thou people on here that are acting humble and understanding of the 10C's position, but let's be honest - we're paying for a service here that's pretty poor. There's no doubt in my mind that the guys in the 10C are working hard on the issue, but at the end of the day they are not meeting the obligations of the services they say they are going to provide. I own and manage a couple of businesses and I can tell you that if I don't fulfill my obligations of service, my guests are not very humble and understanding. For example, at my restaurant, could you imagine if I told you your food would be out in 15 minutes but kept stalling and delaying, then finally got it to you 3 hours later... you'd be pretty upset.
The membership is $20-$40 per year, if that's not cutting it to ensure they have enough people/ technology to meet their obligations, maybe time to raise prices?
Just my 2cents... here come the flames!

All that I once held as true
I stand alone without beliefs

spending $500-1000 to see a show is really getting old..
Aaagh. C'mon already!
I jest though - sure they're hard at work by now
I remember that! Was that 2000? 2003?
Yesterdays "today" turned out to be tomorrow. Today's "today" could possibly be tomorrow too, because "today" is actually yesterdays tomorrow.
