Well as of now I only have night 2 reserved for Austin so if I can't manage to pick up anything else elsewhere probably selling these since it's not worth the trip just for one show.
priority, location and which order it was announced 1. Chicago Sept 7 - sec 112 row 19 (3rd email) 2. Chicago Sept 5 - sec 112 row 19 (2nd email) 3. Minn Sept 2 - sec 118 row 7 (1st email) 4. Indy Sept 10 - nothing yet.
Hope it helps someone.
Also, was flexible on GA and seats. Looks like they like me in seats
I was similar. Did GA/Seats for all, and so far have received seats. 1. MSP #1 2. Austin #1 3. MSP #2 4. Austin #2 (3rd email) 5. FTW #2 (2nd email) 6. FTW #1 (1st email) 7. CHI #1 8. CHI #2

Just got charged for another pair of Austin tickets that I did not request. These are in section 116. My first notice was FLR 2.
9-3-98 - Birmingham 8-7-00 - Atlanta 8-14-00 - New Orleans 4-9-03 - Birmingham 4-19-03 - Atlanta 10-8-04 - Kissimmee 8-5-07 - Chicago 5-1-10 - New Orleans 7-19-13 - Chicago 11-1-13 - New Orleans 4-23-16 - New Orleans 9-19-23 - Austin
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.
No. First priority are drawn first. If tickets remain, they move on to second priority entries. A first priority person should never lose and a second priority person win.
That's not how it's worked for the last few tours I don't believe. Been multiple past examples of 2nd, 3rd priority ppl getting tickets and 1st priority ppl getting nothing. it's caused a lot of butthurt for some folks. My first priority was Chicago N1. Haven't received an email yet. Yet some people at 2nd priority have reported getting reserved tickets.
That is the reason we put priority down. It makes no sense to have priority for pics if it was random as you said. In no way should someone that picked a show as a 2nd get it over someone that put it as a first. That is a broken system
All I'm saying is there was a person here who said they got St Paul tickets for both nights at 5th and 6th priority and then there are people who put those as 1st and/or 2nd priority and haven't heard back yet. I guess they could still get tickets if they're sending out the emails by 10c number.
People are thinking about "priority" wrong here. This has *nothing* to do with who has "priority" to get drawn, it is *only* and *strictly* your own personal prioritization of your preference of shows to attend. How to translate those personal rankings into something that looks fair across a matrix of multiple people ranking multiple instances is an entire field of study and there are a thousand ways to do it depending on what factors are considered more important.
Then what is the point of them asking it? Not looking for a fight, just seems to needlessly complicate things if it doesn't have any impact on what order people get drawn.
Got GA for St Paul 2… (got my email this am) nothing for n1 which was my second choice. Wife missed out on both nights. We only had those two requested, we had no 3rd or 4th requests.
The Hilarious part of this is I was able to get Taylor Swift tickets with zero issues......

My requests in the order of priority, top choice listed first, was: AUS1, CHI2, CHI1, AUS2.
About 15 minutes ago I received my first notification email, scoring seated tickets for AUS2. While I'm glad to be in the building I'm having a hard time making any sense that my fourth choice could potentially be the only 'win'. Hoping for more emails to come....
Couldn’t read all 700 posts, but from what I skimmed through it seems several people have won Chicago with 2nd, 3rd and even 4th priorities.
As of 4:05 CST I have zero ticket confirmations. Chicago N1 and N2 were my only selections. Both GA/Reserved and Reserved options were chosen.
Yes I read every detail to enter and have done this many times before. Yes my credit card is up to date on TM. Yes I received a confirmation email for my request.
Something seems seriously broken here.
There is a working theory that only selecting GA/Res might have been somewhat broken, and that people who didn't win GA were not actually moved into the reserved lotto as advertised
Incorrect.. I had gen/reserv for all 5 of my selections. Received reserved seating for priorities 1,2, and 4. FW and Austin

For Austin… I didn’t ask for floor seats and Sec 109 is by far the worst seats i’ve ever got and I’v been to PJ20, MSG and many more ”hot shows” are all the good seats ”Premium tix” for 700$?

Saw this post on Facebook and thought I'd share...
Really only the 2nd bullet point is new news.
Bullet point 2 is the most confusing one. How can there be so much demand (per the yelling on the forum) and people missing out on P1 or P2 shows (and sometimes all shows) but we're still giving 10C tickets back to TM to sell in general because we don't use them all....Need a How I Built This explainer on the lottery/priority draw process!

Just scored reserved seats for Ft. Worth N2. That's two pair of reserved seats out of seven requests made. St. Paul N2 was third priority and Ft. Worth N2 was sixth. I'm thoroughly confused.
And I my heart just skipped a beat because I was notified... that a TenClub label was printed for my RSD purchase. lol I'll continue to stay tuned for TicketsToday...

Lol right it is so simlple
5000 pairs to go out for 10C
Priority 1 is drawn
3000 people have it as a first pick. All win
Priority 2 is drawn
2500 people have it as a second pick. 2000 win. 500 lose.
Well as of now I only have night 2 reserved for Austin so if I can't manage to pick up anything else elsewhere probably selling these since it's not worth the trip just for one show.
This is where I’m at - winning N2 and not N1 was my worst-case scenario. Day’s not over yet though.
You know, I get the fact that the ticket distribution biz is complicated, but I can't believe I am reading all these posts about people getting multiple shows and I got shut out. You'd think they would have some sort of way to make sure everyone gets a ticket and then start doing multiple shows.
seems like something is wrong with Austin night 1 ticket distribution
I am thinking the same thing. Lots of Night 2 confirms but many less Night 1 confirms (and maybe a few double confirms). I was hoping for Night 1 only and am not optimistic at this point.
priority, location and which order it was announced 1. Chicago Sept 7 - sec 112 row 19 (3rd email) 2. Chicago Sept 5 - sec 112 row 19 (2nd email) 3. Minn Sept 2 - sec 118 row 7 (1st email) 4. Indy Sept 10 - nothing yet.
Hope it helps someone.

Good to know there's a madness to this method. Er, um, I mean a method to this madness, haha
I got Austin N2 Sec 206 Row K seats 3-4. It was my third priority. Still waiting on night 1 on Indy.
