i'm rooting for pj20/benny/backpack in that order

The PJ20 ST did nothing for me. Own a Benny. The backpack is cool, but would prob just trade/sell it.

Anything but the backpack would be frickin' awesome (and I only exclude the backpack because I already have one tucked away in the closet that i refuse to use because it's now a "collectable" :fp: )

This is very cool and better than the mad dash for tickets. The only thing I would say is there needs to be a max shows number you enter when you do this. For example... I may really only want to go to see 1 or 2 shows tops. But in the past if i didn't get my first or second choice of shows I could try to go to another. So for example say I pick 4 shows in priority order..

1 MSG NY
2 CAMDEN NJ
3 Barclays center
4 DC

It is conceivable that I could get selected for all 4 shows! I can't afford that. If I get picked on the first 2 shows then I'd like the system to know to eliminate me from the other 2 shows if i set a max of 2 shows. There are a lot of tours where i only go to one show. But it would be really risky to just put your hat in for one show only and get nothing.

This is a very good point... and it brings another thought to mind. If its going to be likely that people can be "shut out" of multiple shows I'd like to be able to group my requests.

For example, if the boys were going to play MSG twice, Camden, Boston and Philly I'd like to be able to say "I only want tickets if I'm able to get 2+ of these shows". Because the road trip would be too expensive for just 1.

Does that make sense? Too much to ask?

i agree...you can put 10 shows..but when the lottery happens,and you win 2 that you can afford ,stops there for u,and if your name win a 3rd show,they cancel it for u and draw another member.

Very good point, maybe they could do the shows in blocks - like regions. For example I could do a few of the North east shows or south east shows, but not both. It would be very difficult to choose all at once.

Still better than it was before I think.

I love the PJ20 ST If I won the coloured ones, I would give my black edition to somebody else.
Cav needs a new backpack, so that would be nice as well. But the Benny would be what I am hoping for the most ... It would be cool if it doesn't go to somebody who already owns one. And it would have been awesome if they would have thrown a couple of Lost Dogs or Binaurals in too, but I won't complain

Bring back the old system, never had any problems getting tickets in the past.

Not a fan of the lottery system at all!!!!

sure,i agree,better than before..
i think 10c test is brilliant idea cos they will see how its going..
same i think that why they put 2 types of tour(ed-pj) and only 4 shows..
to chack the balance of it..
i believe if they add the option,to a tour,after you choose lets say 8 shows,that i choose 8 but my limit is 3 and if draw 3 stops there,then all will work fine..
and same as areas..regions..
for exabvle in europe,every 2 days they changing countriy they playing..
if they do 10 different countries,i enter to and i win 2 times at lottery,the 1st and the last of the tour,
will be 20 days atleast the difference between my first and second show and the distance between those 2 countries huge,and ill not be able to do both shows..

maybe is a good idea,after the draw finnish..give you a period of 2 days to cancel some of the show you won to lottery cos maybe cant travel from one place to another and after those 2 days,they redraw the left tix..
they can add it,from the moment they have the cancel option..

have you checked Spam?

I have and still nothing. I also confirmed that my email address on file is correct with 10C.

Sounds like I'm not alone after-all.

I do wish 10C would let us know if a sample of emails was used and not all on file.

Nah. I'm on the fence about the whole thing, but if they do it, do ALL shows at once. That will limit the number folks put down in the first place. If you can only do 2, pick your 2 favorite so you don't risk "overspending." It's not like there aren't other tickets. If you only get one, so be it. And if you need to fill in "gaps" in your travel plans, get them through the general sale.

Yeah, I agree with this. There is a big secondary market for the tickets (hopefully through other members) - you can round out your travel plans with those.

I like that. Also, the distance problem for travelling to shows does not only apply to Europe. For example, the trip to the Gorge from where I am now costs almost as much as a flight from Germany to the States :?
It is good to see that they are working on the ticketing issue though and that we can test it :thumbup:

When I re-edited my purchases, I got a "duplication" notification when I entered my cc details for my second round of selection. I filled everything in again and then it worked. That was a little weird.

We should remember too that MOST members don`t travel around to a bunch of shows and make a big trip of it. I should think that most members just go to the show that is in or closest to their city, and maybe one in the next city over. I guess the system should be what works best for the majority, not the minority of super-fans.
