Honestly, you can run lottery more efficiently with a random number generator on google.  It's just a shame we are at this point in the year 2023.

I only put in for one show and only selected GA/Reserved, it was for Indy. I got the email that I got selected for pit. Still can't believe it happened.

Here's another question - did anyone select side/back for Chicago, and get GA or Reserved already? That's my new theory, that they dumped all of us that picked side/rear (in our minds as a backup) in to those seats. We'll see soon I guess 

I selected all options for Chicago shows and got tix this morning.

I could run a lottery better with a spreadsheet 😂

Again: nobody here knows how the process is actually happening. Some people have a very strong opinion on how it "should" be happening, and to that, I'll just paste this again: 

For the people who think the "only reasonable" way to do it is to pull from priority 1 for a city, then if there's any left, pull from priority 2, etc. Consider these two people's preference sets in order:

Person A: Austin, St. Paul, Noblesville

Person B: Chicago, Austin, St. Paul, Noblesville. 

If Chicago has high demand and Person B does not get it, and Austin, St. Paul, and Noblesville all have enough seats for pretty much everyone in priority 1 and not much else, it's entirely likely that Person A gets all three of their picks, while Person B gets zero because they put Chicago first, maybe because they live in Chicago and would prefer not to travel if possible. Who knows. Personally, I find that an extraordinarily unfair system. I'm not saying a system with some other outcome is necessarily better, but I'm saying this "obvious" "only reasonable" system is not at all that. 

Person a: CHI 1 and CHI 2
Person b: CHI 2 and CHI 1

B got both and A has neither. Does that make sense to you?

Yes, person B won the lottery and person A did not. Proves that priorities only matter after being selected as a winner in the lottery.

If it worked that way wouldn’t we have seen a lot more random winnings vs. what we saw:  groups of St Paul, then Chicago, No Austin early in the day, no Indy lawn…..you’re saying early lottery winners, none of them picked those cities?

What time was your email confirmation - I did the same and am still hoping.

23 year veteran of the ten club and shut out. Had Indy as #1 followed by the Chicago shows.

Sorry to hear that.  Looks like we’re doing VF or TM also.

Which is fine if they explain that’s how it works, but I think a LOT of people are assuming they’re doing a lottery for each show and not for each member’s show choices, whether they pick 1 or 9. Maybe i’m wrong in assuming others thought it was that way?

Then priorities don’t matter much and this is very different than previous lotteries

The select all options all makes sense now 🤣

Ok there goes that theory

What shows do you want?

I only put in for St. Paul, was at least hoping to get one via 10c.

Also annoyed that seemingly by not chosing GA/Res and Res options I probably screwed myself, wish that was made more clear in their initial email/on the website rather than just a post on the forum. 

These were the instructions on the ticket request form you filled out.

Has anyone reported lawn for Indy?

Yep, fingers crossed for those rear/side seats!

Thanks 10C!  Chicago 1 and 2, flying in from Philly for the week!

Cool. I live in Chicago and haven’t got tickets for either. That makes sense…

JE224127

I didn’t put in for lawn at Noblesville and maybe in should have but this from 10 Club so I am surprised no one has chimed in yet on getting selected:

GA Lawn - Standing (Indianapolis Only):
Ten Club has reserved the majority of GA lawn tickets. Due to the volume of tickets held for Ten Club purchases, we are unable to offer early entry or a members only area on the lawn. Members purchasing GA lawn tickets will enter with the general public at the regular door time.

Frustrating to see the number of Chicago tickets on StubHub. Even a few GAs.  Also lots of 300s.  I don't think I have seen any 300 level seats awarded in the lottery. 

tickets showing up on stubhub do NOT mean that the person selling the tickets has the tickets. Illinois like Colorado and New York allows for shady speculating.  The ticket seller just has to refund the money if they can't procure the tickets.

Kevinman

The fact that there is still confusion on how this works without any formal answers really sucks.  I hope everyone still waiting gets tix.

Is there a screenshot missing from your reply?

this is what I saw when I put in (maybe it was added later in the day? I entered right away.

I respectfully disagree.  Please try to explain logically how someone that put Chicago as his or her 3rd, 4th or 5th priority, regardless of what his or her 1st and 2nd priority were, would get selected for Chicago tickets over someone that put in a total of two requests, both of which were Chicago, and received zero tickets.
