    Maybe I made a mistake? Ugh. I chose GA or reserved. That means if I don’t get GA, I can still get pulled for reserved, yeah?
    What was the mistake?
    Seems like some people checked GA or reserved and then also checked reserved?
    And how was that a mistake?
    Because of the word OR in GA or Reserved.  Already in the Reserved pool.  A waste of a priority if you ask me.
    dont see how it would be a waste. It made no sense to me but they said in the email and again on the ticketmaster request page to select all options to increase your chances. Having a second option shouldn't impact your priority. You either got GA or were thrown in the lotto for reserved seating. 
    it kind of begs the question why you could even select both. i.e. it would have made more sense as an either GA or reserved or just reserved. the option to select both is confusing, especially if it makes no difference.

    Yeah, I'm paraphrasing but they said it increased your chances of getting drawn. It could be that if you miss on GA you now have 2 entries in for reserved instead of 1.
    That just sounds like someone made it up… makes zero sense 
    The entry form actually said that....if you just selected GA and didn't get drawn then you have a second chance at reserved once GA is assigned.
    The entry form did not say that you get 2 entries into the Reserved only pool (basically double odds if you missed on GA).

    It did say that you would be included in the Reserved pool, if not selected for GA.

    In the past I thought it went as follows:

    All Priority 1 GA go into a lottery, they start drawing names, if everyone gets a ticket they throw in all Priority 2, and so on until all tickets are gone.
    Then the same with reserved.

    So if you put GA priority 1 and Reserved priority 2 and missed on GA, you had to wait until all Priority 1 Reserved got seats until you had a chance.
    I am lost, I'm no guide, but I'm by your side

    Not how it works… you’re picked.. if you choose Ga and it’s available you get it… if you choose Res you get it… notification order or emails have nothing to do with it .. this has been explained many times

    Yeah, I'm paraphrasing but they said it increased your chances of getting drawn. It could be that if you miss on GA you now have 2 entries in for reserved instead of 1.
    It said something like “select all options for best available”
    TEN CLUB TICKET OPTIONS

    ***In order to increase your chance of getting tickets, please select all of the seat preferences you would be willing to accept.***

    GA Pit or Reserved - Standing or Seating:
    GA Pit tickets are standing room only and are extremely limited. To improve your overall chances of getting any tickets to the show, we are no longer offering a GA only ticket option. Members wanting GA tickets can select “GA or Reserved” and the GA tickets will be assigned at random. If not selected for GA, members will then be entered for Reserved. GA ticket holders will receive early entry at a predetermined GA only door. 

    Reserved - Seating:
    Reserved seated tickets are assigned to members based on seniority in the Ten Club and will start closest to the stage extending back and include seats down on the arena floor. In order to accommodate as many Ten Club members as we can, be aware Ten Club seated tickets will be spread farther back into the uppermost levels, and include some of the best seat locations in the house. 

    Rear and Side View - Seating (Chicago Only):
    In an effort to get more members in the room in Chicago, for the first time ever Ten Club is including side and rear stage tickets labeled “Rear View or Side View” in this presale. These tickets wrap from the sides of the stage all the way around the back. The tickets are often close up views and offer a fun and unique behind the scenes perspective of the show. Seats are potentially partial view or limited view. These will be assigned to members based on seniority across the whole area. 

    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. 

    Disabled Access Tickets:
    Members in need of disabled access tickets must request ADA tickets through Ticketmaster Request during the seat selection process. ADA seating locations will vary by venue.  There are no ADA tickets located in the GA pit.

    Yeah that

    No. That's not the email we are referring to. This is not one that everyone got. It was a response to one person's specific email that they sent to the Tenclub support. Either way I don't think it's impactful. It's just confusing and I sure as shit hope there is not some reason why selecting both options actually hurt your chances to pull tickets for multiple shows. I am reserving judgment until later today. In the meantime, just impatiently waiting for any notification for my 3 selections....

    All I know is if the Ten Club said "check both boxes for better chances" I would check both boxes and not think too hard about it 
    Exactly. It was a little confusing to me as to why, but the entry form said "check all the boxes for your best chance of getting tickets" so I just followed the instructions and did what it said. Reading comprehension is a dying skill, I guess.

    Ten club really needs to go back to running the lottery. We’re into the 2nd day and maybe a 1/4 of the tickets have been verified. This is a horrible system.

    Nothing like the feeling you missed on GA with your priority 1 and then an hour later your bud sends you a picture of being a winner at Noblesville PIT, the smallest of the pits, and you realize you are in fact a winner.

    GA was picked first. 

    If you selected GA/Reserved, then if not selected for GA, you are entered to be drawn for Reserved.

    There was no GA only option this time around.

    It's for the person who doesn't want GA. They want a seat. That's why there are two choices.

    If you wanted GA but would settle for reserved you pick option 1.

    If you only wanted reserved you pick option 2.

    The grey area is if you want GA but would settle for reserved do you pick both options 1 and 2.  I know 10c said to do that but I don’t think anyone outside of a few IT geeks at TM knows if that was good advice.  In addition nobody knows if “reserved only” takes precedence over “GA or reserved” only or all boxes ticked.  

    I hedged my bets by doing different combinations for various shows.  So far snake eyes but it’s still early.

    Maybe I made a mistake? Ugh. I chose GA or reserved. That means if I don’t get GA, I can still get pulled for reserved, yeah?
    What was the mistake?
    Seems like some people checked GA or reserved and then also checked reserved?
    And how was that a mistake?
    Because of the word OR in GA or Reserved.  Already in the Reserved pool.  A waste of a priority if you ask me.
    Right, but you didn't need to choose one priority over the other. You only chose priority by show. My 1st priority was Chicago Night 1 (with both options selected). My 2nd & 3rd priorities were the Austin shows (again, with both options selected). I had zero understanding that selecting both options for the Chicago show would move my Austin priority down. If that is true than I am fucking PISSED. That was no how I interpretted that.  I agree that it doesn't seem necessary, though. If your one option is GA or Reserved I don't really understand why you would also need to selected the only seats option. I only selected both options based on that email.
    Yeah, this is how I understood it to be. I wonder if they pull the GA, fill it up and if you don't get pulled but selected GA/reserved you are back into the lottery along w/ everyone who put reserved only. That's the only way it makes sense. 
    No, they don’t have a GA lottery and a Res lottery… if I only pick reserved for show X  and I’m the first name pulled I get reserved for show X .. the second name picked choose GA… they get GA… if they choose both GA or Reserved they get GA, if GA is full and reserve is still available the they get reserved..  if they choose Reserved only and it’s full they get nothing… there’s two options because some people would rather not go if they can’t get a seat… as opposed to someone that wants GA and would settle with a seat…

    dont see how it would be a waste. It made no sense to me but they said in the email and again on the ticketmaster request page to select all options to increase your chances. Having a second option shouldn't impact your priority. You either got GA or were thrown in the lotto for reserved seating. 
    it kind of begs the question why you could even select both. i.e. it would have made more sense as an either GA or reserved or just reserved. the option to select both is confusing, especially if it makes no difference. 
    It's for the person who doesn't want GA. They want a seat. That's why there are two choices.
    No one questions why both options exist. It's the fact that you were able to select BOTH. The point is if there is no benefit to selecting both why not just not allow both to be selected. You can just do one or the other. Allowing for both to be simultaneously selected is what causes the confusion.

    Ten club really needs to go back to running the lottery. We’re into the 2nd day and maybe a 1/4 of the tickets have been verified. This is a horrible system. 

    Most 10c members to do not post here. It's 2pm est. This will continue for awhile. No one should be gutted until they get the rejection in their profile.  Lost.

    Nothing like the feeling you missed on GA with your priority 1 and then an hour later your bud sends you a picture of being a winner at Noblesville PIT, the smallest of the pits, and you realize you are in fact a winner.
    Hoping for the same on my friend's account, but I don't think it's happening. 1:14pm and nothing. Her reserved seats are gonna be in Gary, IN.

    Ticketmaster really is the worst. Got an email from them…but it was an ad to buy Ain't Too Proud – The Life and Times of The Temptations.  

    Talk about a roller coaster of emotions with that email…
