    Yea I am complaining but I didn’t have rear selected. 

    You have some actual reasons to be pissed. 

    Cheers. Feel like a beer at 7am from this nonsense.

    I haven't seen anyone saying they have behind the stage assigned yet, so I haven't lost all hope. I am hoping my status of process complete unfulfilled is just what they did when they realized everything went snafu.

    My first priority was Chicago N1. I selected all three options- GA/Reserved, Reserved, and Side/Rear. Didn’t get anything. 

    My wife’s first priority was Chicago N2. She also selected all three options and also didn’t get anything. 
    Same for us. It is what it is but it’s certainly disappointing to see some getting both nights and others getting completely shut out. I’m pretty new to the system and perhaps I don’t completely understand it so I guess I can’t bitch too much. StubHub it is, I guess. 
    The way it used to work in past lotteries was for every given show, they would take all of the available tickets and fulfill the first priorities first, then if any tickets were left over move on to the second priorities, then the third priorities, etc. It appears to have been conducted differently this time around.

    I think you need to factor in 10C numbers too.

    Has anyone with a 700XXX won Chicago RES yet? Night 2 specifically since that seems to be the one that made it past first picks for sure. 
    That’s interesting. My wife is a 700XXX number and did not win GA/Reserved, Reserved, or Side/Rear for Chicago N2 as her first priority. Not sure why membership number would matter (it shouldn’t), unless they were awarding reserved tickets in order of membership number and then stopped the process once they realized the system error.

    I think there is a chance this is right.

    It shouldn't matter overall what your number is vs priority. It could matter however  when sending out emails from best seats to worst seats which is seemed like they were doing yesterday and of course the worst seats are higher numbers.

    Has anyone had luck securing ADA tickets? As of now, my request for accessible tickets was “unfulfilled” for Chicago. Was wondering if Ticketmaster messed up with those tickets too.

    This can be debunked.  I personally know someone who has a newer account for one of his kids and the number is 700xxx+.  Won GA tickets.  There seems to be zero rhyme or reason to any of this.

    That is GA though. Separate Lotto at the start of the day and all GA tickets are equal so all emails went out at once.

    My wife only requested Chicago. 1st and 2nd priority. She was unsuccessful on both. I’m curious as to how this draw worked. Especially if anyone who had Chicago 1 as their second priority would have won 
    Hamilton 05, 11, Cleveland 06, Toronto 09, 16, Buffalo 10,13, London 13, Seattle 13, Detroit 14, Milwaukee 14, Ottawa 16, Fenway 1, Wrigley 1
    Seattle 1 & 2, Missoula, Wrigley 1 & 2

    My bad.  I must have misunderstood.  I thought we were just saying 700+ numbers in general being shut out.  Disregard my post.

    I've got to think besides seat reassignments today that they figure out whatever happened with these priorities. Here's mine:

    Priority 1 - Chicago night 1 reserved (won)
    Priority 2 - Chicago night 2 reserved (won)

    Member #27xxx, exact same seats both night in 113 row 10

    Shockingly a lot of "my priority 1 lost out to your priority 2/3/4/5/6" - my priority 1 & 2 (Chicago) apparently lost out to an awful lot of folks who had it as their priority 3-6 (I even saw a 6 win!)
    or you can come to terms and realize
    you're the only one who can forgive yourself oh yeah...
    makes much more sense to live in the present tense...

    1995:  7/11 (Chicago) 2009: 8/23, 8/24 (Chicago) 2010:  5/9 (Cleveland) 2013 7/19 (Chicago) 2016: 4/9 (Miami), 5/1 (NYC), 8/20 & 8/22 (Chicago)
    2018: 8/18 (Chicago) & 8/20 (Chicago) 2022:  9/11 (NYC), 9/18 (STL) 2023:  9/5 (Chicago), 9/7 (Chicago) 2024:  8/29 (Chicago), 8/31 (Chicago)
