Pretty obvious that the odds were not calculated correctly. Also obvious that they screwed up the Oakland and LA draws. Who screwed up and how we’ll probably never know.
Seems like most of the draws worked properly and they did a great job of securing more tickets.

I would say calculated differently. Ticketstoday may not have thought of it the same way as 10c did.
And yah, for the most part it seems to have worked pretty well (hiccups aside).
Toronto 11 v 33 Ottawa 28 v 59 QC 44 v 79 NYC 7/8 v 10
Pretty clear based on comparing the closing odds that they were based on first priority this time around. Unless you think demand dropped significantly. This would be especially unlikely because there was less risk in pursuing GA through the BA route this time around.
There is no indication anywhere they changed how the odds were calculated. It’s more likely the odds deceased significantly at the end of registration, especially for the west time zone shows. This is the wording for older tours and the odds are per show not per priority
“The purpose of this tool is to show you the odds of being selected for a given show. The odds are calculated based on the number of entrants versus the number of tickets available. “
Unless the odds dropped after the closed odds of 99%, Ireally think ticketmaster is withholding tickets.
Here come the conspiracy theories, Ticketmaster holding tickets to sell on the resale market that isn’t supposed to exist. Let’s all wrap ourselves in aluminum foil
These were the final odds according to 10C. They dropped 1-3 points. The odds are solely to show demand but they were obviously either calculated differently or incorrect based on a simple comparison of the same shows four years ago. Or demand has dropped significantly.

Its clear that ticketstoday screwed the whole thing up. The posted odds at the end were 99%. Lets say it dropped lower than 99% after the final odds posted. it surely did not drop a lot. If the most sought after show was at 57% then St. Louis or any other show showing 99% wouldn't drop more than 10 or 15% anyway.
This many people shouldn't have been shut out with such great odds. And seeing all the issues with email and St. Louis in general, it makes sense that the problem was with Ticketmaster.
I do want to commend Tenclub for securing this many tickets. That was awesome and there were way more tickets available to us than ever before.

I know a guy who knows a guy that works for Ticketmaster. The guy I know has already been offered tickets to see Pearl Jam by his friend.

Perhaps he should do some research as to who, what, when and why that term was even created and for what intended purpose.
