    Sometimes you eat the bear, sometimes the bear eats you 
    Sometimes you're the hammer, sometimes you're the nail.  A lot of us became nails today.

    It would be entirely reasonable that the first pass for each event would be drawing “Reserved Only” for seats, as some/many would have specified that option for physical/health reasons (along with the fact that —without a “GA Only” option—they’re the only ones who listed a specific preference). It’s common in this type of thing to assign the most restrictive set first. If enough people checked that option (including many who likely ALSO checked “GA/Reserved”), then there may not have been many Reserved seats left once they got to drawing Reserved seats for people who only checked “GA/Reserved” and didn’t get GA. 
    I think that is a good hypothesis on how the algorithm was set up.  But someone who was Selecting the GA or RES option only wouldn't have thought that if they didn't get GA that their RES request would be subordinate to someone who chose RES only.  That's the frustrating part.

    Exact this is not reasonable at all
    Oh?
    Why would it be reasonable to select from the Reserved only entries first for Reserved seats before selecting from the GA Reserved entries? It's not reasonable at all.

    Still trying to wrap my head around - and there will never be an answer - how folks had Reserved Chicago as a third and fourth option and got seats but many people had them as 1 or 2 and didn’t.  Mind boggling.
    It is unexplainable despite the fact that many are trying to do so.

    I chose one show because that's all I could afford. My Ten Club number is 323xxx and I ended up in well back in section 115 in Austin. I clicked the GA/reserved option for the show. Not going to complain too much. Pearl Jam hasn't been within an hour of me in nine years, and I'll be in the building for it. Though, I did have much better seats through Ten Club in 2013 when they played Dallas. Like, way better.
    Is this Austin 1? I haven't read this whole forum but I wonder if something weird happened there. I had it first priority and didn't receive confirmation until a few hours ago. Same thoughts seat wise

    I said why in the very first sentence: “ some/many would have specified that option for physical/health reasons”. 
    But that still doesn't make it reasonable. If they were going to do it that way, it makes no sense to get rid of the GA only option.

    FWIW, I requested reserved seats for 1. Indianapolis; 2. Chicago 1; 3. Chicago 2; including side/rear for Chicago. I haven’t received any email whether positive or negative. Not sure what to make of it, but I’m clinging to (dwindling) hope.  #218xxx

    I didn’t choose OR as I’ve been dealing with a nerve issue in my leg - I can’t stand in GA. 
    Again choosing OR doesn’t at all explain how ppl had 3rd and 4tj choices. And got seats but those with 1/2 didn’t; OR doesn’t explain that.
    or you can come to terms and realize
    you're the only one who can forgive yourself oh yeah...
    makes much more sense to live in the present tense...

    You’re nuts, but thank you for your perspective!
    I mean, I’ve been doing this for a living for 30 years, but whatever floats your boat. 
    Indy was my only show. Picked Reserved Only and scored. 
    Things were different then
