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.
What time was your email confirmation - I did the same and am still hoping.
seems like tickets are out on the ticket sites already.

Both St. Paul shows requested, credit card charged 5 hours ago, and still no email. I think this means I got tickets and more emails will be sent out. Am I wrong?
So now I'm drivin the bus- Kramer
You're batman!- George
Yeah...yeah...I AM batman!!- Kramer
so if someone gets Austin Night 1 and it was their fourth choice.... and it was my second choice, it stands to reason that i should be getting tickets, right?
Logically yes…..actually…..no idea.
If your name doesn’t get randomly pulled then it doesn’t matter what priority you listed or your seniority. Your name never getting pulled means no tickets.
Once again. This is fake news. Priority gets first consideration. It's on the FAQ.
NO IT ISN'T. I quoted the FAQ last time you said this! Again: "To level the playing field, ticket requests are fulfilled in a randomized selection process while still considering show priority."
"While still considering show priority" is not REMOTELY similar to "Priority gets first consideration." Not remotely!
Have to agree here. This is why people with lower priority are getting picked.
Yes it is what IS happening.
It is not what is supposed to be happening. Ticketmaster is doing it wrong. That is the point
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?

If Indy was 1st priority and you selected all seat options I think you have a really good chance of getting tix. just my thought, not a fact.

Oh sweet, at least there’s a metric ton of buttholes with $700+ ticket listings on StubHub but a 14 year fan club member (and others) go 0-3 on shows. Sweet. Really takes away the only significant benefit of club membership.

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.
That happens because this is a lottery system. That's what a lottery is. Luck. Some of us won't get chosen at all for one show. Others will win everything they put in for. I really think a lot of y'all are overthinking tf out of this.

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.
If I can't go to St. Paul N1 (or if I find a better single for either night, as I'm going solo), and you get shut out of Verified Fan, I'll let you know & we'll set up a F2F drop.

I really hope 10c gets to work on revoking all the 10c tickets that are already being scalped and puts them back in the pool. Maybe that is what is holding the draw of the rest of up.
Couldn’t read all 700 posts, but from what I skimmed through it seems several people have won Chicago with 2nd, 3rd and even 4th priorities.
As of 4:05 CST I have zero ticket confirmations. Chicago N1 and N2 were my only selections. Both GA/Reserved and Reserved options were chosen.
Yes I read every detail to enter and have done this many times before. Yes my credit card is up to date on TM. Yes I received a confirmation email for my request.
Something seems seriously broken here.
There is a working theory that only selecting GA/Res might have been somewhat broken, and that people who didn't win GA were not actually moved into the reserved lotto as advertised
I requested only GA/Reserved for Austin N1 and got a seat.

pretty certain I’m getting skunked. My two buddies who did exact same order got both St. Paul and no Chicago.
I’ll have a ticket but damn that sucks.

makes much more sense to live in the present tense...
