    If they go this route on the fall leg, they should charge $1.00 more to the Vitalogy Foundation for GA tix, and then people who select BA will know whether or not they won RA or RES when they look at their credit card charge
    But doesn't it seem like they don't WANT you to know? Why else would the email not include the information?
    I think they just haven't gone thru the seat assignment stage yet.  They had X amount of 10C tickets available.  Let's say 10,000 total seats.  They drew those first.  Notified people that they were going to the show.  Then the next step (after all lotteries are complete) is to assign seats based on 10C seniority.  I'm sure they could have notified those who won GA, since there are no seat assignments, but I think its fine that everyone finds out together. 

    I personally put in for best available and I am fine with whatever I get.  We will all know by the end of the month.  7 full weeks before the shows start.  Not sure why it's so urgent for some.
    Then why not do it? I understand, you think it's fine; others don't. It appears a conscious choice, though, which raises the question: why?
    If you have been notified that you got tickets, why does it matter NOW if its GA or RES?   Make your plans and in 10 days, you will know where your tickets are.  Not sure I understand the drama.  Everyone will find out at the same time.  Seems fair to me.  I already know I am going to Hamilton.  I do not know if I will be in GA or in a seat.  I'll find out in a week and a half.  I knew the rules before I entered.  I am good with it.  
    No, you didn't know the rules, because this wasn't in the rules. FFS. 
    Yes it was. 
    Jesus fucking christ, are we going to have this conversation again? You're wrong. Read this entire thread to see why.

    Maybe picking "best available" is actually the worst option than trying for just GA or just reserved?
    On one hand you have 2 people with weird circumstances. On the other hand, you have dozens and dozens and dozens of people reporting results that are exactly what you'd expect. You're welcome to enter a lottery however you want, but I think you're overreacting.


    It looks to not be an overreaction.  At least 2 fans got denied for BA for 2 shows at 99%.

    That's four total rejections at minimum. With 99% odds that should be impossible 

    When we made our BA selections it was ONE line item. 

    When we got our email, the one selection was split into 2, GA & BA.

    It's possible the computer picked only on the GA and not the BA

    We need to hear from our beloved 10c overlords asap

    Anyone who thinks they go the shaft on TOR or HAM with first or second priority BA or RS care to post shot of their entry confirmation email? As someone who won with TOR as my 3rd priority, I don't believe you folks could have rightly lost. Perhaps GA was selected inadvertently? Or picks didn't actually go in, or CC issues, or actually only entered the VF thing, or requested tickets to the Bubble Guppies.  Kidding aside, it'd really like to know how that happened (as I'm sure more importantly you would).

    If someone has a high number and they pulled reserved vs GA, they might be more likely to take a crack at Verified Fan.

    Also, I think there's some fuss because you found out which you got with your confirmation in every 10C lottery to date. Not that I have any issue with this, but it's a change.
    Yeah, I guess change is hard for some.

    As for verified fan.  Those seats are going to be the nosebleeds, I believe.  Any tickets purchased after 10 club are not going to be better than 10 club seats.  

    Additionally, this isn't Wembley Stadium.  These are arenas.  The worst seat at these shows is better than some of the best RES seats at the stadium shows.

    Hi all, I'm new to the Ten Club and this experience in general. I put in for 1 ticket (Best available) for Nashville and made sure that my Ten Club info matched my Ticketmaster info. There's plenty of room on my card as well. I haven't gotten a notification yet either way. I was under the impression that we would be contacted over the course of a few days but people are acting like we should all know by now. 

    So if I haven't gotten a notification yet, does that mean I'm out? This would be my first PJ show, so I'm gonna be bummed if that's the case.

    Here we go again...reading comprehension. I'm thrilled I scored seats for TO and Ottawa. If we have to wait a few days to find out where we're sitting, so be it. This after all is a lottery.

    My priority was Quebec City, Ottawa, Toronto (all BA) in that order and got all 3. Not expecting GA for any of them but I'll be in the building.

    You should cry and meltdown elsewhere.  You're having a breakdown because you made an error when you entered the lottery.  It happens.  Own it and move on.

    This guy has posted his confirmation email and his decline emails.  TOR was his 1st choice, BA.  It's weird.

    I believe Nashville has not been selected yet, only Canada shows. Today is La and Oakland and Denver. Good luck!!

    I'm curious if anybody inadvertently selected ADA seating instead of GA or Best Available.

    During one of my selections I wasn't wearing my glasses, and almost did this.

    Nashville hasn't been drawn yet, and won't be today either.  You should find out over the weekend.  Sorry you have to wait!

    No it looks exactly how I filled it out. When we made our picks it was a single line item BA (IIRC)

    When we got the email BA was split into GA and RES

    Only thing that makes sense is their program isn't reading row 2 of the BA selections and significantly understated the odds

    Check the other thread titled "10 Club i'd like an explanation". User posted a screen shot showing they picked BA for Toronto Show and Hamilton show and was denied both shows. It's all there and makes no sense at all.

    I'm not crying or melting down (though I'm known to do both). I am, however, annoyed by the constant, condescending "y'all are stupid, just read the rules," "you can't read!," etc. It's rude and incorrect.

    Ah, thanks for the info! Like I said, I wasn't sure how this works since it's all new to me. I woke up to a text from a friend asking if I got in and started reading this thread and got in a panic. I'll chill out now. Thanks to you and wSimon for the replies!

    Welcome to the Club.  You will almost certainly get your request.  You will find out by Sunday evening.  Congrats and enjoy the show.  I'll be there as well.
