Shut out once again. Ten Club, I would like an explanation

I don't think anything needs addressed, it's the luck of the draw. I'm sorry but you can't have the expectation that you will win tickets in every pre-sale.

 So, I got shut out of Hamilton.
 My request was for 2 x seats BA - it showed I had 99% chance when I ordered. I receive an email telling me that they'll let me know by Sunday January 19th if I am confirmed for the show. But, last night around 11 pm, I get an email telling me that I didn't get tickets. Yet, my friend  who put in her request one day later than me, got tickets for all 3 of her requested shows Toronto, Montreal, & Hamilton. WTF???

Certainly begs the question of what exactly is the value of being a 10 club member in 2020? . 

When I became a member back in 1995 or 1996,  we got a newsletter and a 10 club single in the mail, and priority seas to PJ shows. 

Now days, membership fee is considerably higher, the band hardly puts out records, we get no annual single, &  no guarantee of tickets to PJ shows.

All we seem to get are a 10 Club T-shirt and emailed newsletter.  Doesn't exactly feel like we're getting a very good bang for our buck these days. 

 So, perhaps some explanation is in order to the long time fans who are getting shut out of shows.

When you placed your entry had no bearing on if you won or lost. 

Did you submit any other Canadian entries? If so, did you win any of those?

There's no way GA was 99% at the time the lottery closed.  

Am I correct that this is the only case we know of where someone claims to have selected BA for a show and not get selected? And the screengrab is when GA odds were 99% so would’ve been submitted shortly after the lotto opened. Are we absolutely sure moses-i didn’t re-submit their requests as GA only? 

He indicated he did not

This is the challenge when a thread gets big. Ppl check in and assume the same things over and over. They want the easy explanation. And it's impossible to read thru hundreds of comments 

Potentially 3 fans with this issue. One who forgot to resubmit one show, but lost on their other show that was resubmitted to fans using a lower priority. Also, all BA tix outside of Bal and NY are 99% odds.

And I feel bad for Moses-i but it seems to be the only case with proof that is fucked up

Are you fucking telling me that because my last name wasn't saved on the TM site but EVERYTHING ELSE WAS FINE I got shut out of every lottery last night for Canada??? That is SOME BULLSHIT

The timing of your request had no effect on your priority for the lottery vs. anyone else who also submitted.  It doesn't matter that you placed your request before your friend placed hers.  The lottery doesn't distinguish between 10C members based on the timing of their submission.  

What does matter is the priority that you assigned to the Hamilton request.  Was that the only show for which you submitted a lottery request?

Call TM and either Stone or Jeff ASAP.

BA Hamilton, GA TO, BA OT...Nothing. But I looked at my TM and everything looks fine. So I don't understand.
