So am I understanding this right? The folks that just picked GA/reserved are maybe having regrets that they didn't opt for all seating options?
Has anybody seen any tickets for behind the stage pop up yet? Or have they not gotten that far yet?
GA is always more difficult. Even though they threw in the reserved piece with it this time, I am guessing it was pretty much designated to GA. I have gotten every ticket I've put in for, save waiting on Fort Worth knock on wood, but I am not a GA guy. I think if you just put reserved you probably had a really good chance of getting tickets.
Sure but based on everything we know, a GA/Reserved for a Priority 1 show who lost GA, should still get Reserved tickets over a Priority 2 entry Reserved only.
Wife and I both had Indianapolis Res/GA as priority #1
0/2 at the moment
yeah, not looking good for the reserved TC tickets. they said 10% of the house is going to be premium tickets. so thats 2400 premium in Indy that will all be under the roof, since there is now way they could pull big bucks from the lawn seats.
Where did you hear that about 10% going to premium?
Not sure how people are getting st paul for their 4th and 5th picks and I didnt get it as my only pick.
Until you get a denial email, it’s not over. Personally if I saw people confirming tickets with lower-priority to the show I had ranked #1, I would take that as a sign that I’m in really good shape.
198XXX 1st priority: Chi N2 (all 3 options) got sec 3, row 23 at 2:45 pm EST (was hoping it wasn't too far back on the floor, but looks like it will be 23rd row of seating instead of sec 3 starting at row 20 after the GA seats since others got low rows in sec 1-3) 2nd priority: Chi N1 (all 3 options) Nothing (yet) 3rd priority: STP N2 (both options) 103, row 13 at 2:23 pm EST
So far I got both MSP Reserved (2nd and 4th priorities) and am waiting on both FW (1st and 3rd) and on Chicago 1 (5th and not expecting).
I got worse seats than someone with a worse 10c number though which is annoying.
Seeing a lot of this. Very frustrating. If this is widespread on top of priorities being skipped with later rounds winning over 1st rounds there is going to be a lot of unhappy people. I will wait till after the draw is done though and see how this plays out.
Yeah, seems like the longer I'm in the 10C, the further away my tickets keep getting.
It's getting to the point where I'd rather just try my luck with the Verified/Public On Sale.
Same. I've lost the majority of the last few shows I've put in for. Seniority seems to mean nothing nowadays.

Are yall getting emails for the ones that you're not getting? Or just the confirmation emails. I've got 2 yes's, but no 'NO's' for the third one that I'm waiting on.

Don’t forget to be kind and go to Ticketmaster to edit your verification choices for show(s) you won opening up more codes for people who didn’t win the ten club sale.

Pretty sure it's a combination of: 1. Larger GA means less floor seats, and you're pushed up the sides 2. Addition of Premium on the sides also pushes back 10c seating 3. Less shows means more fans trying for the few dates available 4. More 10c ticket availability means more fans likely squeezing between your number and the lowest seats 5. Misalignment in 10c's method of what is "best" isn't what we'd expect individually (I'd rather be back of floor than on a wing)
All, it's not totally confusing as to why someone who listed any show as 2nd priority would get a ticket and someone with 1st priority wouldn't. My understanding is they group those in 1st priority, run the randomizer/lottery and issue tickets to those who get picked. Once that's done they do that again for 2nd, 3rd, 4th priority etc until all the allotment is gone.
I could be wrong. Someone let me know if they know otherwise.

Agreed. My wife and I each pulled a night for St. Paul as our 3rd priorities, so to me that says if you have it as your 1st or 2nd, you should be good to go!

I just did that. Thanks for the heads-up.
1. Larger GA means less floor seats, and you're pushed up the sides
2. Addition of Premium on the sides also pushes back 10c seating
3. Less shows means more fans trying for the few dates available
4. More 10c ticket availability means more fans likely squeezing between your number and the lowest seats
5. Misalignment in 10c's method of what is "best" isn't what we'd expect individually (I'd rather be back of floor than on a wing)
