Here's how I suspect they did it based on it being straightforward and aligning with everything they've shared about the process.
1. Filter on just the applicants for the show being drawn, in first priority
2. Pick a name.
3. Check their preference
4a. If they requested GA, check if there are GA available. Deplete the inventory if necessary, and notify on win/loss.
4b. If they requested Best Available, check if there are GA available. If not, check if there are Reserved available. Deplete the inventory if necessary, and notify on win/loss.
4c. If they requested Reserved, check if there are Reserved available. Deplete the inventory if necessary, and notify on win/loss.
5. Once all entries have been processed to either win/loss within the priority, repeat the exercise with the next priority
6. Once all entries for the show have been processed to either win/loss, move on to the next one (hence why the email alerts came one show at a time)
Technically, once they knew a show was fully allocated, they could've also stopped lottery-ing for that show and send loss notices to everyone after too.DC '03 - Reading '04 - Philly '05 - Camden 1 '06 - DC '06 - E.

amethgr8 said:I believe there is only one hat/pool/bowl. I know they put all GA ONLY & BA into the first drawing, past that, I don't know.
I would like some input on how someone got their 6th pick over a BA shut out. In this case I believe that they pulled the 6th priority name and didn't pull the BA name. I would like other input on this situationThe 6th priority is crazy....has that really happened over a 1st priority BA? My guess would be the 1st priority had technical issues if so.I am lost, I'm no guide, but I'm by your side0 -
That would somewhat explain how people who put Reserved lost even at 99%. If GA was full, then the people who picked BA would all switch to reserved and those numbers would dilute the reserved odds from 99%.Bridge Benefit 1994, San Francisco 1995, San Diego 1995 1 & 2, Missoula 1998, Los Angeles 2000, San Diego 2000, Eddie Vedder/Beck 2/26/2002, Santa Barbara 2003, Irvine 2003, San Diego 2003, Vancouver 2005, Gorge 2005, San Diego 2006, Los Angeles 2006 1 & 2, Santa Barbara 2006, Eddie Vedder 4/10/08, Eddie Vedder 4/12/08, Eddie Vedder 4/15/08, 7/12/2008, SF 8/28/09, LA 9/30/09, LA 10/1/09, LA 10/06/09, LA 10/07/09, San Diego 10/09/09, Eddie Vedder 7/6/2011, Eddie Vedder 7/8/2011, PJ20 9/3/2011, PJ20 9/4/2011, Vancouver 9/25/2011, San Diego 11/21/13, LA 11/24/13, Ohana 9/25/21, Ohana 9/26/21, Ohana 10/1/21, EV 2/17/22, LA Forum 5/6/22, LA Forum 5/7/22, EV 10/1/22, EV 9/30/230

“ It is not possible to be confirmed for both GA and Reserved tickets for the same show. “”NOT POSSIBLE.” That is the absolute evidence.
they did the Balt draw in under three hours and there’s no way they scrubbed the data base and did a second hat draw, all within the time period we know the draw began and ended.
As for the rest, I'm no programmer, but I can't imagine it would be that hard to create a database that does what you describe. That's only conjecture, though.But do you use the programs? What coders love to say is easy just doesn’t work out that way in real life. We can run in this drawing on Microsoft 365 if you have any doubts.
my point was, why add a layer of complexity, even if you believe you can 100% remove the risk of population error in one minute? What benefit does this create and why is the two hat theory not anywhere in the club literature?0 -

3 hours before lottery ended MSG - TOR - BAL were like 60% Res & 10% GAThose look close to the reported odds at the end of the registration. Do you have evidence otherwise?
the 99% were all RES shows “as the lottery ended”Every RES over 100 miles of the Atlantic was stated as 99% as of the last report.
Where was it documented the majority of these shows odds dropped to a “much lower” amount?0 -
The future solution: BA should be removed to clear up confusion.
2 options:
GA
Res
Enter for 1 or both(priority 1 and 2)
1st draw: Everyone with Priority 1 GA
2nd draw: Everyone with Priority 1 Res
3rd draw if GA still has room and all Priority 1 GA got tix: Anyone who has priority 2 GA that did not get 1st priority tix.
4th draw if Res still has seats open and all Priority 1 Res got seats: Everyone with priority 2 Res that didn’t get 1st priority tix.
i was under impression this was how this drawing worked with BA=Ga 1st priority, Res 2nd Priority.
Just how I thought it worked, not stating this is how it actually works. Just my interpretation of the rules.

I was a Math major in college. It wouldn't make any difference odds wise either way. Look at it this way, if they drew in one big pool, anyone who has BA who gets picked while GA is available gets GA, same as if they drew GA first then reserved. The only difference is they start giving people who picked Reserved seats earlier.I think they are saying the BA picks are getting the equivalent of double the picks... that there are separate draws for GA and RES and BA is in both. Although there is no evidence of that, and the rules state it is impossible to be picked twice for one show. To do that IMO they would have to remove every GA winner precisely, and be certain not to remove non winners from a hypothetical second RES draw
so they got a master coder to perfectly scrub the data after each category is picked, so they can tell us it is impossible to be picked twice0 -

I know technology pretty well and I would thing the programmers put in a flag so There is no scrub they need to do, a simple flag on all who won rounds would remove flagged accounts from lottery0
