10c could go back to the old way where they had significantly less fan club tickets.0 -

I understand people being upset/disappointed if they didn't get what they want, but if you put in for MSG and/or Baltimore and didn't win, I don't think you should look at people who got tickets for St. Louis and think "well they won and I lost". It's really not comparable at all. There's another thread where people are listing their personal lottery histories, and it's really striking how some of these are real lotteries and some are just ticket sign-ups.Camden 2 2006, Newark 2010, Barclays 2 2013, Central Park 2015, MSG 2 2016, Wrigley 1 2016, Rome 2018, Prague 2018, Asbury Park 2021, EV & Earthlings NYC 1 2022, MSG 2022, Louisville 2022, Dublin 2024, MSG 1 2024, MSG 2 20240 -

I’m not saying you, but I’ve literally watched people start to lose their shit an hour into results, get an email saying they won, then start yelling at people to chill out about not getting tickets. This whole process was a shit show. I just don’t remember it being this bad when 10c handled it. Maybe the best idea is to not disclose the odds? Who knows. And for the record I went 0 for 4 with mine and my wife’s accounts.0

I was in the boat where I assumed there was user error for everyone who was shut out. There were lots of people admitted to not reading directions and not knowing each new entry deletes previous ones or not entering their 10C email when prompted. SO it seemed like a simple solution to the rest. But with the number of people shut out, and the fact it looked like certain cities with priority 1 or 2 I started to questions that. Then when people started to report getting information emails yesterday it is easy to saw that there was definitely a problem with the system as well.
I hope whatever the problem is they own up to it so it can be fixed, and not just leave it at "due to high demand."0 -

Not sure if the OP did GA only, but the people who did--I just don't get it. What would you expect when the odds are so much lower? Do a backup if you really want tickets! They're still better than anything you'd get on ticketmaster!ABQ 93, Las Cruces 95, ABQ 98, Bridge School 10/30/99, Lubbock 00, ABQ 00, Denver 03, State College 03, San Diego 03, Vegas 03, PHX 03, D.C. 03, Camden 7/5/03, NYC 7/8/03 + 7/9/03, Vegas 06, San Francisco 7/15/06 + 7/16/06 + 7/18/06, Kansas City 10, [EV:ABQ 11/6/12], Chicago 13, PHX 13, Denver 14--PJ24!, Telluride 16, Chicago 8/20/16, Chicago 8/18/18, Phoenix 22, Denver 22, Vegas 5/16/24

Im a longtime dues paying member of this club, I shouldnt have to be able to comprehend reading at a third grade level in order to get tickets to a concert. What a load of trash.
But if you (jerparker20) feel so entitled that you "shouldnt have to be able to comprehend reading at a third grade level in order to get tickets to a concert", well then i wish you good luck in life. Reading instructions and following directions is always beneficial for success. And I'll assume all those second graders' must have snagged your tickets...
And yes son, i am entitled. I have two copies of Unplugged on vinyl. Which according to another well respected member entitles me to a private performance by the band in my kitchen on my birthday. 👍

JR86440 said:amethgr8 said:Well, I don't have it ALL figured out, just yet. My theory doesn't meet with much acceptance here but I kimd of think so.
Even if not, still just one hat, they do the GA first priority only and BA together until all GA tix are gone. For the GA only 1st priority requests remaining, they lost and are discarded. The BA remaining go into the Res hat with the others to get drawn or shut out.
