    Don't worry Ames, no one's begrudging you the ticket, you deserve it.

    Just in the slimmest hope that other than the new lottery, anyone still has any spares (i too didn't see the thread about this new lottery) i still nedd 2 tickets, happy to give anyone a lift from Bournemouth or anywhere really, just getting a little desperate now. :?

    Here's a suggestion for how the lottery could work, if I read right previously that there's now 45 people after the ticket, how about allocating everyone who wants a ticket a number between 1 and 45, either based on the order their requests appear on the list or by alphabetical order by username, and the first number to be drawn in the UK lottery that is between 1 and 45 determine the winner?

    There's been talk of a video'd lottery for this and it just seems much simpler, number wise, if we do something like this. The numbers would all be allocated and it would then be a totally independent drawing of the number.

    Just a thought like!

    Well to say you haven't got a ticket, standing outside Walkabout asking for tickets with a facehugger mask on could cause problems!
    :D Rock on!!!! :D
    Seen Pearl Jam 4 times in London, once in Manchester, as well as an Eddie show at Hammersmith.

    Ah shit I forgot to update here that i got real lucky and got a ticket for the show.

    A kind person has helped me out at face......kinda restores all faith in the human race generally.

    So my gain is a small gain here in that I'm one less number to worry about.

    Good luck to all in the running, and do scrub me off the list.

    Thanks Ames also for everyting you did here, when the chips were down this thread gave me that little bit of hope also

    as you know I begged and begged and begged everywhere I know.....and it came off

    Blackredyellow.com
    here
    pjcollectors.com
    i contacted every person selling on ebay (got one reasonable offer of £125 tier 3)

    and then struck gold, through someone who's husband took pity on me as a non fan and seeing how nuts i am he's let me go in his place.

    I know i'm lucky, i pinch myself to make sure its real

    I sincerely hope you can get in too....i can see the effort you have put in, and although it feels like you are boxing in the dark, keep plugging away and i'm sure something will come up...good luck

    Could work yeah! Not a bad idea. When does the national lottery get drawn again?

    Just to let everyone know, I have sorted out with a ticket arrangement with satansbed. So I will take his ticket. This leaves ilockyer's ticket as the one that will be assigned randomly.

    Ok cool. If everyone agrees I'll just number those left on the list on Wednesday night before the draw. Then once the numbers are drawn the first number between 1 and forty-something will be the number of the person on the list to be assigned with ilockyer's ticket.

    Sound good? Good idea ilockyer!

    EDIT to say I'm going to visit my girlfriend for tonight and tomorrow, but I'll be back before 9pm on Wednesday, so I'll have time to add/remove more from the list and number you all before the draw.

    I'll still have some internet access, but won't be on as much for the next 24 hours or so.
