    You make a good point and I admit that math was never my strong suit. However, I don't think your stats are entirely accurate either. Sticking with the hypothetical 3,000 members trying for 1,000 seats, those are actually 500 pairs because each winner wins a pair, right? So really in that scenario there will be 500 winners and 2,500 losers. In other words 1 out of every 6 people ends up a lucky winner, so doesn't that make our odds ( in this scenario) roughly 1/6?

    Your argument of 1/3 and 1/1 sounds like heaven, but if it were so, then I would have gotten tickets to the London show (no doubt the less popular of the two) but I did not. So of course I'm a naysayer because I didn't get the tickets I wanted whereas in the past I always got tickets, even with the annoying experience of the refresh button craziness.

    I'd be interested in someone from the ten club giving us some real numbers or perhaps just someone with a math degree weighing in. :lol:

    But this makes no difference if you're talking about lottery vs f5. There would still be the same number of people trying for the same number of tickets either way.

    Given that "the coming months" have been and gone, an update on the tour announcement timeframe would be nice.

    This reminds me why I tend to avoid the forums. The ten club creates a forum called "let your voice be heard", and then I try to offer my meager 2 cents on something and a bunch of you have to get negative and straight up rude. It's not called, "let your voice be heard and criticized by the rest of negative nation"; it's just called let your voice be heard. That's what I tried to do. Sorry if it goes against your particular opinion but that doesn't then give you the right to call or imply that my opinion is "stupid."

    It's unfortunate that we share a passion for the same music and yet can't treat eachother with respect. I have not agreed with many things that a great many of you have had to say over the years, but I don't think I've called anyone stupid.

    Hello Family,
    I'm new to the 10C. I received my first mailing from 10C a month ago and was wondering if I was supposed to receive a 10C ID card? What I received in the mailed packet was a bunch of stickers/decals and a 10C jacket patch. Anyone know if they were supposed to send me an ID card? Not sure if I need an ID card for anything? Are there events I will need to have one to get in?
    thanks.

    PS: as I lived overseas in a 3rd world country most of my life, Wrigley will be my first show. I am looking for someone who is going to be my "mentor". I will be at both pre-concert parties.
    Ohhhh, I walked in light when you held me in that night

    Welcome to the forum from me too RachaelBarrett.

    As for an "ID card" no there isn't one. Sometimes there's something you can print out & get laminated yourself but I'm not sure if there is this year, anyway nothing official is needed.

    If you just turn up at the pre-parties for the shows next month you will be fine & will meet heaps of fellow fans. Enjoy. :)
