    I like the idea of the lottery... I've been to a ton of shows since they started it and never won once. I don't know how I've never won, but I haven't.

    One day I might, but I'm fortunate to have a good TC # as it is so its not like I can complain. Just once though I'd kill to be in the front... Ive always wondered if there's a cutoff where any member under a certain # isn't eligible.

    I'd feel like a winner if i got to see the band play again... that's the real lotto, and many people really take it for granted :roll:

    someone once got bumped from their usual row 6 to row 10 by "winning" the lottery

    so i'd say there isn't a cutoff.... although maybe after that situation... they may have implemented a cut off

    thats exactly how I feel, it's fun to wait in line and think what if....

    I think the band should do a lottery on the first 10 rows, give more people a chance to be up close to the band, and get all the stodgy spoiled fans who looked bored cause its their 43rd show a merciless exit away from up close

    now you're generalizing about long time fans

    i know a few lucky members who are lucky enough to be rows 3 and 4 always and they are not stodgy or spoiled... they're a fan like you... and if you were to meet them you'd not want to displace them

    I know, I know I was generalizing, seems to be an easy thing to do around here

    but my point was, more lottery rows

    This answer is actually simple...

    If you are/have been a part of any of these things:

    Have you complained about any 10C things?
    Are you friends with DS1119?
    Has Speedy questioned your opinion on the fact that your favorite color is green?
    Is your avatar questionable?
    Is the amount of post you've made in a year more then the gross national product of Guam?

    If you answered yes to any of these then when you get tickets your "lottery" position all the sudden gets "circularly" filed.

    The answer is even simpler than that:
    Have any of you actually asked the 10C how they do it?

    The answer I got was quite satisfactory…

    I always thought that the more goods that you bought from Ten Club the better your chances would be. I mean they know how much each of us spend on this site. It's kind of like looking after the people that look after you. All I really buy through the club is tickets so I would assume that my chances would be lowered by that fact. Just my theory.

    nah, that theory doesn't hold water either because I have never spent a dime on anything
    from the goods section and including last night I have now won the lottery 8 times.

    since you need to purchase tickets via the Ten Club to be eligible for the lottery, and you have 0 ticket purchases in your account, I'd venture a guess that you've NOT won the lottery 8 times.

    My girlfriend and I just got engaged last week in Chicago. We are attending the Vancouver show later this month. We have never won the lottery. If we ever win, now would be as good of a time as any. Keeping fingers crossed.
    Also, I didn't mean to start such a dramatic thread of bickering between members. I was just hoping someone on here knew, or 10C would respond with an answer. Sorry 10C.
