    Seems like a good call.

    Anyone that wants to go submit entry.

    All those that get chosen are then given tickets based on member #.

    For pj shows that is:)

    Better than refreshing all day and being aggravated.

    I agree - and even if I don't get my Vegas tickets through this 10C drawing, I still have to say it looks to be pretty fair and positive so far.

    (Although F5 key has still been getting a workout on my Inbox! :) )

    UPDATE: I got 'em! :mrgreen:

    Even if it took a little longer than expected to here back regarding the lottery, it seems to be a good & fair system.

    Not sure it would be good for a full on tour.
    Also, bring back seniority.

    these venues are so small, seniority isn't really an issue. plus, they've never gone w/ seniority for EV shows. (at least i don't think they have)

    Loved it!!!
    ...
    Here is another idea...
    A Pre-Sale for tickets using this method.
    We only get to pick ONE show... so, choose carefully. Same method, e-mail... PayPal pending.
    They draw the names, send out the notifications.
    After that... the full pre-sale with the servers crashing and the F5 pushing and the people crying and now for you bitching messages and the cursing of the Ten/VHC.
    ...
    That way, you get a **CHANCE** at your first pick city, without the stress and hassle. If you score a pair on your first pick lottery and you CHOOSE to participate in the crashing pre-sale... that's on you, not the Fan Club.

    I think this is clearly a superior system. My seniority is hard earned and important to me so I would also hope that is preserved when it's PJ...

    Full disclosure....I got tickets, so I don't have any complaints...zero. This has far away been the best overall band fan club, and it's not even close. But I do not like the no seniority business. I've been in the Ten Club for almost two decades.....if some chump who joined at Christmas got a ticket for a show here in SA (where PJ/EV RARELY come to) I would have been beyond furious. Luckily, it worked out, but I think if you've been paying your dues for longer than others, that it should come with a benefit. Just my opinion.

    But again.... I have no complaints, and the Ten Club rules. They have a difficult job, and they are amazing.

    They used to do this years ago. Way before you started listening to them :)

    I like the idea of not having to f5 but there has to be a solution for that to allow for better technology during presales.

    I think if they just staggered sales, everything will be fine with the more modern system..

    Don't sweat it, man. You WILL get tickets at face value. I would even try for you during the public onsale if you want.

    Uhm.. Yes! Please suggest this to the 10c. This would.be.fucking awesome.

    I was all ready to respond and say how much I loved it despite not receiving tickets yet, and then I got em!

    Either way I do like it, but I agree that seniority has its place. Hopefully it will be applied for the Band's shows. The only issue I had was the inability to remove a duplicate entry (kept me out of the clearwater running) Overall though each time I failed to get tickets it was due to my own issues and nothing the 10C had any power over.

    So I like it. No real complaints.

    The new system is in NO WAY more or less fair than the old system.

    Everyone's chances were equal with the old system, and everyone's are equal with the new system.

    Personally, I prefer the old setup.

    :idea: Add to this seniority as a factor ONLY in the "pre-pre-sale", which would basically be a "hometown choice" more or less - then it's first come first serve on the "full pre-sale"...after that, TM or Box Office.
