Would this be a better system for ticket lotteries?
I didn't put in for any tickets for this tour because I'm not interested in travelling to shows as much anymore, so this isn't a sour grapes complaint post. But this idea came to me reading the board after the 2020 ticket lottery. I got my 1st and 3rd priority shows in that drawing but many people were saying they didn't get their top priority show. Some people's top priority show was the one I got as my 3rd choice. It seemed a little unfair I was picked for 2 shows while others were missing out on the only show in their town on the tour.
So I thought 10C could do 2 drawings for each tour. The first drawing, you only put in for your 1, single, highest priority show. This would allow more people to get tickets to shows, especially the people that can only go to their hometown show. Then, a second lottery with its own new entries can be held with the remaining tickets where you can put in and prioritize for as many shows as you want. Shows like NYC would be nearly impossible to get after the first drawing but shows like that are nearly impossible to get if not top priority with the current system. Who knows? It might even spread peoples' top choice around and make it easier for locals to get tickets to some of the more popular cities.
I guess this would be less advantageous to the travelling fans that go to a pile of shows every tour, but I think it would allow more individual ticket winners and greatly help out the single-show attendees. Not sure if this would work or if there is something I'm missing. Tell me what you think...

Ticket lottery time seems like a good time to ask this again
Unfortunately, no system will please everyone. Your idea in theory makes sense, but I guarantee that someone would find a way to be upset if it was implemented.
