    You won the lottery for both Brooklyn shows? I thought that wasn't possible.
    You see me empty, Sir, do not pause and inquire, simply assume and refill.

    From the FAQ:

    Q: If I enter for more than one show, can is it possible I can get selected for more than one show?

    A: Yes, it's possible you can get selected for all of the shows you enter the drawing for, so please only enter for the shows you can afford to buy tickets to. Once your name is drawn, the non-refundable tickets get charged to your credit card immediately. The only exception is for shows with more than one date; Philly, Brooklyn, and Los Angeles. For these shows you can only possibly be selected for one or the other.


    Honestly, I just don't get it. Some people are getting shut out completely while others luck out to the point that the rules set out by the 10C don't even seem to apply. I have no idea how this lottery works but the whole process seems rather strange. In any case, congratulations on your win(s).

    On a related note, does anybody know how the lottery works? At first I thought they were only going to draw from members who made their 1st choices at each show, and work down the list but now I get the impression that they simply randomly drew 10C numbers and went down your priority list giving you the highest show available. In other words, if you had your name drawn several times early on you could in theory land 10+ shows but if your name was drawn late in the game you could miss out on all of your shows because they were all sold out.

    No worries. I'm happy things worked out for you. I also scored the tickets I was looking for (just one show) so I'm not complaining. I'm just confused by the whole process at this point. The lottery seems even more random than the old system and I'm trying to figure out how everything works.

    from what i've read so far, seems people who just chose reserved over GA were the lucky winners here? especially if they only picked one or two option(s)/show(s)?

    curious to see the final survey statistic. great idea, by the way.

    Entered my info as well.

    I was 2 for 2 - Charlottesville and Charlotte reserved.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.
