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.
What they are doing.
If you chose GA/res. They are filling all of the GA tickets. Then anyone left of Ga/Reserved and just Reserved are going to be thrown into the next traunch of tickets. If they fill that up there are two options. If you selected the next level you'll be in for those tickets if not you'll have to try on ticketmaster when the early release happens
You are assuming they combine the GA losers from GA/Res with the Res only and it is drawn as one big pool. That would be the fairest thing. I am suggesting however that nobody really knows if that’s what they do as opposed to say doing the Res only people first and then the leftover GA/Res losers or vice versa. Also the system has to take into account the priority level people attached to a show. I think there’s variability in how the system logic may have been built.
St. Paul 1 was my 7th choice, St Paul 2 was my 6th.
Just got 1, then 2. Weird. But whatevs. None of this is final unless you want it to be

I am confused how someone can get St. Paul tickets with third choice when others who had it as first and second haven’t gotten anything?
Because we literally have no idea what order they are doing this in and also what order they are sending notifications in. People are just guessing and it causes confusion.
We literally know exactly what they are doing though. They did GA from start to finish. Filled all 9 shows. Then did ADA. Now are starting on night 1 with RES. The emails may not be sent out in priority order however.
No - you actually don't know that at all. And you acknowledged that in the last sentence.
Just let it go….lol… (amazing how something so simple can be so misunderstood)
