Shut out once again. Ten Club, I would like an explanation
Options
As the title says. I'm a loyal Ten Club member who once again didn't get Ten Club tickets to any shows (specifically in my town Toronto). I would like someone from the Ten Club to explain how this happened when other ppl got all four shows (and will probably get even more US dates) with a third choice Toronto pick. And it appears I'm not the only one. I'm sorry but this is ridiculous and needs be addressed! Thank you.
To the good ppl in the Ten Club. If anyone by chance got two extra tickets for Toronto and/or Hamilton, I will be happy to take them off your hands. Thanks!

What was your pick for the show?"Well, I think this band is incapable of sucking."

Probably GA only...0

I've never heard of the lottery system being broken or unjust.
The ones getting several tickets are going for tickets that are 99% (100%) chance to get.
All the ones having the Toronto show at number 1 get a shot first. So if you put Toronto at number 1, there is zero chance someone having it at spot number 4 could get that exact same ticket.

3 of the shows had 99% for best available, so tickets were basically guaranteed if you weren’t in for GA only
Send us a list of your picks and what price levels you chose (GA only or best available) and we will try to make some sense of it to you

2018: Amsterdam I / Amsterdam II / Seattle I / Seattle II / Boston I / Boston II
2021: Asbury Park / Ohana Encore 1 / Ohana Encore 2

Im not great with statistics but....member A entered the lottery for 6 shows. Didn't get any tickets.member B entered the lottery for 5 shows. Got in for all 5 shows.You keep reading things like this. Who here is good with chances and statistics? But something tells me that something like this can only happen when the 10C has like a million members. Or the lottery is not fully fair...PJ: Pinkpop 2000, Sydney I/II/III 2003, Adelaide 2003, Arnhem 2006, Antwerp 2006, Berlin 2006, Dusseldorf 2007, Nijmegen 2007, Werchter 2007, Rotterdam 2009, Berlin 2009, Nijmegen 2010, Amsterdam I/II 2012, Amsterdam I/II 2014, Amsterdam I/II 2018, Pinkpop 2018, Werchter 2018, Pinkpop 2022, Budapest 2022, Krakow 2022, Amsterdam 2022.

Member B enters the lottery for seated ticks with 99 % (as in 100%) chance of tickets. gets all.
This sounds like the talk on here when the lottery started YEARS AGO. Why haven't people been paying attention."Mostly I think that people react sensitively because they know you’ve got a point"0 -
I mean, if you picked GA only for all shows. And Toronto was your #1 pick. Odds are probably more likely of getting shut out across the board than anything else. I'm hoping you didn't pick this way?0
-
I empathize with the dread of being shutout, but to the bigger point, were these selections GA or bust?
I know in the past I have scratched my head on how I could win with my third or fourth priority pick (pretty consistently too, I did not get my first, second or third pick in either 2016 or 2018, and in 2013 was shutout for fall).
But this year could not have been more clear that the odds were ever more in favor with best available. Even so for me 2 shows were a priority so I put them one and two, even if that meant the others with risky risky odds were put 3 and 4. Gamble, but I felt like I could either find a ticket in verified, through asks, or fan to fan on those if worst comes to worst.
That all being said, I hope that this is not a situation where somehow a best available got completely shutout, that seems wrong, and also impossible.His eminence has yet to show.

Did you get confirmation emails that you had put into the lottery?0

You obviously went GA or Bust. You busted. It happens every year. The 10C doesn't owe you an explanation. It's obvious what happened here.0

Get a burner phone. Make a call to 10C headquarters, they will never know it was you....0

You were only willing to accept GA tickets, yes?
