Got GA tix! Only problem is wife will be 6mths pregnant by then. Was my 2nd choice for that reason. Could be interested in a reserved trade if possible.

As for results when did you enter? If you entered late in the game it's gonna be a while till you find out the final results.
Yeah that was my 1st priority. Toronto RS was my 2nd and Ottawa RS was my 3rd. My final submission was yesterday at 12:03 am, so really only less than 36 hours before cutoff I believe. So that makes sense if it takes longer based on lateness of submission, but damn, quarter after 5 here now still nothing
I too had "Reserved" listed as top priority, yet somehow pulled "GA". Not complaining at all. Was originally focused only on reserved seats, but now I might rock out in the pit with the rest of you crazy people! haha

Got GA, my first pick. Interesting that people are getting GA with their second pick; seems odd, given that GA was at 44%.
It just means that a lot of people put in for it but not as there first pick. It happened the last couple of tours as well.
There was a nearly double higher % chance of getting Reserved over GA and also far more Reserved available as compared to GA. So it is odd that people who picked Quebec as their one show and ranked Reserved 1st and GA 2nd got GA, rather than Reserved.

I never seen that happen before. Usually it's the other way around. If you don't score GA as your first priority, you would get reserved seats as your 2nd priority .. or nothing at all. Reserved was 84% while GA was @ 44%.

Sorry my first post was for another thread. What I ment to say was they need to fill the Pit and if first priority doesn't do it they will jump to second and pull all names whether they wanted reserved first and foremost or not.
I actually warned people in a couple of threads but still some did not believe me and others saying the same thing.

Yes, I realize this.
But wouldn't this only be if GA was at 99%, not 44%?

No they do GA first. If the first priorities do not satisfy the amount that the pit holds then they go to second priority and draw everyone whether you have reserved first or not. I am not saying its right its just the way they do it to fill the pit. One other way to look at it is could you imagine, though highly unlikely, that if they went to GA priority #2 and passed on you because you had reserved as #1 and then you somehow missed out on reserved as well do to being full? Once again highly unlikely though.
questions- where do people recommend staying? i skimmed the thread and it seems there are no walkable hotels correct? do they have uber in QC? or just old school cabs?
Thanks for the help and any other tips for a first timer is welcomed!
Coming from Fredericton, NB. Can't wait!!! Also, if anyone has a spare ticket (prefer ga but will take seats) I have a friend who will purchase it from you
