Yes, I guess I would prefer 112, 113, 121,122 in this case. The seating algorithm should have taken distance into account better. I guess I'll be near the soundboard myself.

It DOES take it in to consideration. People with lower numbers have better seats. I am 67xxx and in 112, which is better IMHO than right behind GA.
But that’s what annoys me! How in the world were people pushed back an entire SECTION— with NO ONE having better seats — if this reassignment had anything to do with “seniority”?

I’m a 317xxx member first draw I got both nights in section 106 second draw I got section 210 and 316
it seems a huge shift and I probably won’t make the trip from the UK as a result. No complaining. It’s just a long way to come to be back corner.
Previous years in US I’ve been lower bowl halfway back.
So strange but I guess it’s that more tickets are available to 10c and there’s loads more people with lower membership numbers. So fair enough.
In some ways a 9% chance of winning the really great seats is more worthwhile than an 85% chance of getting anywhere. You can most likely get better seats by periodically checking TM after they haven’t sold all the $5k seats in premium.
Looks like they're going to take a 3rd attempt to get this right.
"Based on this updated information, we now know the first attempt to fix
these issues wasn’t sufficient. We remain fully committed to making
things right.
In the coming days, Ten Club and Ticketmaster will be working on a
solution to reassign seats to their final proper seniority based order.
For some of you this will be a second reassignment. Tickets will not
show in your Ticketmaster account until all seating assignments are
finalized. You’ll be notified of any changes to your seating assignment
in the next week. You will not lose your tickets and Friday’s Verified
Fan on sale will not impact your seats."

Where is that from? A new email? Thanks
Yes, here is the full message:
A message from Ten Club
We are sending a note to all Ten Club reserved seat ticket holders.
We apologize for the confusion and extra time it has taken to complete
Ten Club’s presale. What we initially believed to be one issue affecting
five shows turned out to be two separate issues - one originating from
Ticketmaster and the second from Ten Club - affecting Ten Club
seniority-based seating assignments across all nine shows. This had no
impact on who got tickets, but did affect where those ticket holders’
seats were assigned. Based on this updated information, we now know the
first attempt to fix these issues wasn’t sufficient. We remain fully
committed to making things right.

We also want to address fan frustration about Ten Club tickets being
located in higher levels of the venues compared to prior tours. We are
committed to getting more inventory into the hands of Ten Club members
and the only way to add more tickets is to go higher up. As a result of
this additional inventory, we were able to allocate more tickets to Ten
Club members than on any previous arena tour.
We want to reassure you that if you received an email confirmation, you
have tickets to the show. We apologize that you may not know exactly
where your seats will be located yet.
We are grateful for the Ten Club community and striving to do our best for you. Thank you for your patience.

I wonder how this will all play out. My number is 115xxx and I got what I consider okay/not the best seats (on the floor behind the pit), but they are probably considered "Excellent" seats according to the Ticketmaster algorithm because they are "on the floor reserved" seats.
I'm worried I'll end up on the floor but even further back. With the pit being so huge at the UC this go around, I'm already looking at staring at the screens the whole night. I bet some of the behind the stage tickets will have a better view. Definitely much closer to the stage.
I got section 309. Oh well, I will just sell them and spend an arm and a leg buying better tickets. Seems like with most entertainment nowadays, either you get lucky or you don't. And most of us don't get lucky. If I want better seats I will pay for them.
So, my tickets are N1 GA and N2 Sec 309. I never had either tickets reassigned, but I did get the email today, along with everyone else. I’d obviously like to be closer for N2, so do I go after Ticketmaster verified fan tix or hope that my N2 gets reassigned?

See - now THAT is wild to me! The same member, with the same level of seniority gets (arguably) “the best” possible tickets for N1 (PIT) - and “the worst” ticket in front of the stage for N2 (straight across - 300 level).

You are a prime example of the problem.
Getting GA has never been by seniority, in fact GA came back because the band wanted new and fresh faces up front.
I think the 35000 and under member Numbers may do better in the reassignment but anyone over maybe not

EDIT - I should mention, this is the chart Ticketmaster put up for its listings.

second draw I got section 210 and 316
