Lost Seattle (1st choice) and MSG (2nd choice). Not surprised, I have not done well in the lottery.
is there a lot of lotto losing going on by members who have been members for ten plus years or is it just me sensing this. Perhaps they don't want to see middle aged faces anymore. lol j/k (sorta)
Just not that many seats this go around.
"The heart and mind are the true lens of the camera." - Yusuf Karsh
out of 8 tickets i've put in for since the lottery started i've only won once. this is getting a little ridiculous now. hate to say but i think i'm missing the days of the F5!!

Nah...I havent been on this forum since 2009, and havent been to a show since 2010. No entitlement/complaining here. Just hoping. In fact..Now that I think about it, I'm guessing most people that are on this forum are probably older members like me anyways. Hell, back in 2009 I thought I was a "senior" member and still got (relatively) bad seats compared to most others

I've fared better.. I've entered for Vancouver '13, Seattle '13, Wrigley 1, and ToTD. I'm 2/4 (Won Vancouver '13 and Wrigley 1). Don't forget you when you say 0 for 8 you need to add context. It's whole lot worse if those were 8 losses on 8 different tours, than 8 losses over 1 or 2 tours kind of thing.
People forget why F5 ended. The 2011 PJ20 Canadian tour completely and utterly crashed the website. The website hit the point of no return. They couldn't do F5 anymore. That was pretty much the catalyst for the lotto.
additional note: It seems to me it both awesome and rough to live in the US NorthEast. I think PJ plays there the most often. That's a big advantage. The disadvantage is that many of those cities are close together. When people tour with the band, it's the shows in the NorthEast they go to. So you've got so many people going to the shows. The tours out here in the west are less frequent, but anything in the Northwest that's not Seattle, is really easy to get tickets for.

What Zod said. Putting 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th choices for same shows or other highly desired (low %) shows means that your 1st entry was likely your only legitimate chance. I won something every other time I entered but also only won 1 item out of many entered every time. (Except for this time, I only put Philly and expected to be on the losing end with the small allotment of tickets and huge demand.)
A buddy and I both entered Philly in hopes of getting 2 tickets.....we both won!
Now that you have an extra pair and the stress of selling them, I will gladly relieve you of that pair for face value and all the beer you can drink at the show. :-)
Lost both LA and SF. Girlfriend tried for LA also, lost.

Congrats to those who got them, and hope those who didn't can score tickets otherwise.
