Hmmm...that seems odd because it doesn't account for seniority when assigning reserved seats. And that would be contrary to the policy as stated on the 10C presale web page.NewfieintheUSA said:Emailed the Ten Club Ticketmaster customer service.
Looks like they are going to randomly draw from all entries, if your choice is still available, you get it, if not, you don't. So not doing GA first then Reserved like they used to do. I've sent a follow-up email to confirm that GA is always considered Best available.

Thank you for getting back with us today. We are happy to address your concerns. Orders will not be processed based on seat selections. Requests will be randomly selected to have tickets processed.

This is the only negative I see with this new system. Kinda sucks for people that really love/hate GA, but it is what it is.NewfieintheUSA said:Emailed the Ten Club Ticketmaster customer service.

Again, I'm sure people will figure out ways to swap with each other. It's just a 1:1 trade. Shouldn't be that hard to figure out.
Just walk in with each other and swap phones if you need to until the GA person gets their wrist band. The other pair just go to where the seats are. Done and done.'I know I was born and I know that I'll die, the in between is mine.'0 -
But there isn't GA first choice, Res second choice anymore. You can't prioritize one over the other unless you simply don't pick one. If you choose both, it defaults to Best Available. So, they run the lottery for GA, winners picked from those who chose that as one of their options. Once that's filled, they run the lottery for Res, winners picked from those that had Res as one of their options. That is my understanding.PeterED said:Why would that be the assumption?
I would expect that if a member puts MSG GA as their first choice and MSG Seating as their second AND they are not successful in the GA lottery that they would be placed AFTER all of the MSG Seating first choice lottery winners have been processed.

If you hate GA you shouldn't put in for it. There is no chance that someone who puts in for Best Available, gets drawn and the only thing left is GASaltzy23 said:

I know what your thinking I thought the same thing ...SVRDhand13 said:
I'm a little concerned about the sentence AFTER the one you boldedon2legs said:How about this...
In an effort to get more tickets into the hands of Ten Club members, Pearl Jam has partnered with Ticketmaster for an exclusive members-only presale through Ticketmaster Ticket Request. The majority of fans who enter the Ten Club ticket request will get tickets. This also means that Ten Club seating includes seats farther back in the venue than in the past.jesus greets me looks just like me ....0 -
i'm guessing all the seat assignments will be done after the drawing is done.PeterED said:

thanks for this. So that as a strategy has gone out the window. If you want in the show, you choose best available, otherwise you only get tickets if that type of ticket is still available when your name is drawn. right?NewfieintheUSA said:Emailed the Ten Club Ticketmaster customer service.

It's an interesting question - Can you buy tickets on the exchange if you already have tickets?pulling69 said:Saltzy23 said:Coolest thing about this is that we actually know where the fuck we will sit before the day of the damn show.
Your tickets will be viewable in late January; you will receive a separate notification via email.
And....with the fan transfer/selling option you can try to upgrade or downgrade your reserved seats if they are available.
Example: I get drawn for a GA pair in Baltimore. Can I buy another GA pair on the exchange?0 -

They didn't say they would be assigning seats as selected, just that you would be guaranteed them. Chances are lottery happens, then seats are then assigned by seniority0 -

Sounds like they will randomly select entries, if you just selected GA you will get tickets if GA is still availble, if not you get shut out. If you selected best available you will get tickets as long as either GA or reserved are available. People will be notified if they got seats by Sunday .
Seat locations will he sent later, which makes me think they will go back through all of the winning entries and determine seat locations based on seniority at this time
I could be wrong, but this sure sounds like the process0 -
I assume they pool all reserved ticket winners and then choose seats based on their seniority- you will find out if you got tickets by this Sunday, but don't find out where until later this month. That gives the system a few weeks to figure out who sits where.PeterED said:

I would think the people who selected Seating as their first (or only choice as it seems to be) choice would be processed before those who did not. But who knows. (There doesn't seem to be anything clear on this point.)mrvector said:

If you want to get in the building and want reserved and not GA do not pick GA or best available. It does not help your odds out at all and only hurts people that want GA's odds.0

I think its pretty clear. It has no bearing on what your choice is. It goes by name. If your name is chosen, they go into your choice, and if it's available you get it and if its not, you don't.PeterED said:
