Well I got one show as my first choice, and zero on second show when people are reporting 5th and 6th priority for that show... since it worked for one show - my account, TM, payment and requests are all setup correctly ... this is TMs problem!

Did you possibly make any changes after your initial submission?

yes changed once...changed Sunday from GA to BA and got that 

Did you re-submit the show you didn’t make changes to at that time as well?  Because if not you would no longer be entered in the drawing for it.....

Rest up everyone. Something tells me tomorrow is going to be a bumpy ride!

The odds had to be wrong and it should have been very obvious they were. If a GA had 50% it had to be wrong. Most of the floors would have at most 800-1000 seats for GA that means if only 1000 people put in for GA that would be 2000 total tickets Putting it at 50%. I think we could all agree there is no way that only 1000 people put in for GA. In the case of NYC being like 30% that means only 2500-3000 people had requested GA. That couldn’t possibly be right. 

After all the Canada dates giving up almost everyone’s tickets I think there was some false hop for these big market US shows.

Damn. Just checked my TM profile.  First name only.  I just changed it.  My show, St. Louis, draws tomorrow.  Am I OK, now?

No conspiracy for me.  Credit card is fine, I got my #1 pick of oak 1 BA, charged, emailed, all that.  Been doing these things long enough to know my credit card in the system is valid, my emails match, etc.  only did one entry for fear of fucking it up if I made changes. Not getting oak 2 BA for my second of two picks makes me scratch my head when I see oak 2 getting picked as a 5-6 choice.

I'm completely in the same mindframe as you.  But i haven't got a rejection, so maybe the strangeness will all be sorted out...  Still super happy to be able to see at least one show.

No, I may be premature, you’re right, I may just be freaking out a bit. Got the first one 6 hrs ago though so I feel like the delay is a negative thing since others seem to be getting oak pics

Hoping it works out for you, but I wouldn’t assume anything till you get an email.  I saw someone else post that they spoke with a Ticketmaster rep and they said results would be coming in through Sunday.  Not sure why it would take that long, but keep the faith!

yes changed once...changed Sunday from GA to BA and got that 

And when you resubmitted, did you resubmit both shows or just one?

Both,.... I got the email confirming both... same as the first Email... and nearly 500 dollar total

Does anyone have the breakdown of what the odds were at the end of the lottery open period? I wonder if some of these 99 percents for the reserved seats dropped much right at the end. (I understand that they might have been 99% on Monday afternoon but they go down over the lottery period. NYC was at ~50% and Baltimore was at ~65% for reserved seating last I looked Wed afternoon)

Rejection emails came out for me last night around 9:15 PST

This morning it seemed like user error. California seems to have blown a hole in that theory. 10c needs to clarify what is going on.

WARNING. IF YOU ARE EASILY BUTT HURT DO NOT READ THIS POST. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
The only people so far to think they have been screwed are :

1.) Those who picked GA only, thus dwindling their chances of getting IN THE DOOR significantly and the reason those with priority's of 2, 3, and even four got tickets to said show. They had a 99% chance of scoring RESERVED seats with their 4th priority and the GA only had 0%. of scoring RESERVED seats. Their are way more reserved seats available than GA. This is common sense. So in reality, they took a chance, and lost, but they weren't screwed.
Per the email we all received from Ten Club prior to the lottery sign ups: 
*****Step 4. Select the first show you’d like to request tickets for. In the resulting window, select the number of tickets (1 or 2) and desired ticket type (GA PIT, Reserved Seating, or both). You may request both GA and Reserved tickets, but can only possibly be confirmed for one or the other.****
It's simple math. Failure to understand the math, not the lottery screwing you, you screwed yourself if you really wanted to see the show but are a pit snob. Next time, choose BA if you dont want to get shut out.

2.) Human Error. Several people have admitted to making choices and then going back to TM to add more shows, change number of tickets, whatever.
 This is what is posted on the TM webiste :
*****I need to adjust my Ten Club ticket request, what should I do?

To adjust any part of your request, a new request must be submitted. To do so, tap here to go back to the site, sign in and submit a new request. We’ll only keep the details of your last submission. The deadline to submit new or updated requests is Wednesday, January 15 at 11:59 p.m. PT.*****

Now I don't know about everyone, but when I encounter something new, I try to get as much information as possible, in this case, a new ticket process. And I didn't sit around all day reading the boards wasting hours of my time reading through posts about nothing  trying to get some info. I read all the info made available to me from the two parties I knew that I had to deal with to get tickets, Ten Cub and Ticketmaster. Yes, TM had some things to say also like the example I just posted  https://blog.ticketmaster.com/pearl-jam-tour-2020/  . It's a 10 minute, easy to understand read and is clearly posted on TM. Took about 20 minutes total of my time on the day of the announcement because I read it twice. Because it was new. And wanted to make sure I understood it.

3.) Human Error (again) . This was in the email we all got also from Ten Club

****Step 2. On the resulting Ticket Request site, sign in to your Ticketmaster account, or create a new one if you don’t have one. Your name under your Ticketmaster account must match your name under your Ten Club membership account.   ****

Read reason #2 again. READ, haha, get it?

4.) Credit Card issues. Now has anyone had a problem and actually received a call ?

****- If for any reason your card declines at the time your request is being confirmed, you will be contacted by Tickets Today. ****

Because if anyone is having problems that don't pertain to the above listed three mistakes most people who got "screwed" made, this is where I'd start to look. And this problem isnt caused by the new lottery system.

But we're only half way through this new process, new problems could arise, but so far, so good if you ask me. And I get to really suffer tomorrow waiting to find out about the 1 show I put in for , Baltimore BA . Originally had both Balt and MSG BA and MSG BA being my first choice, but chickened out out at the last second and dropped MSG. Why? Only people with either show as their first priority are going to get tickets I believe. Baltimore had slightly better odds, its a Sat. vs. Mon. night, and being from Philly and 90 miles from either venue, should say born and raised in Philly, FUCK NEW YORK, Cant stand that toilet bowl of city now filled with 85%condescending yuppie douche bags from somewhere else bragging about the Yankees or The Giants or even worse, the fucking Mets. Baltimore hands down lol. 

Good luck everyone with the rest of the lottery.

Sounds like some people did all that and didnt get their 1st priority, which was BA.

While others got that same show, BA, as their 2nd or 3rd.

I'm in the same boat for LA 1 BA priority 2.  No rejection e-mail yet.  I will "patiently" wait until Sunday evening for my ticket.
Got LA 2 BA with priority 1 on the same confirmed ticket request so there isn't an issue on my end.
