SnB Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Oct 18, 2005 -> 12:22 PM) Yeah, people are going to put this on Brooks and what not again, when it's not his doing. This is just a mess. I know the Sox haven't been there in a billion years, but they need to catch up with the times and do a lottery or something. Ticketbastard can't handle this s***. i know its not on brooks but he's someone that can do something about it, unlike us who get the shaft and have no say.

DonkeyKongerko Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 QUOTE(Allsox @ Oct 18, 2005 -> 12:24 PM) This is NOT the White Sox' fault....This isn't even Ticketmaster's fault....Too much demand and not enuff supply....That's all it is so please, don't bring this up at the Seminars at Sox Fest cuz they won't be able to help or offer advice.... Lottery. At least then you don't THINK you are 2 minutes away from getting a ticket. And don't have to worry about a slow server when you are submitting your CC number as your tickets get released.

Balance Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 QUOTE(Allsox @ Oct 18, 2005 -> 12:25 PM) Even if they did a lottery, people would complain about that as well.... But they would realistically not have as much to complain about. A lottery would be the fairest way to do this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZoomSlowik Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 I can't even get the pages to load right. I got screwed out of a place in line twice because the damn word verification wouldn't load. In a couple of cases I couldn't even get to the event page. I'm down to one spot in line on the first computer I used. It's never been at more than a 4 minute wait, but it's been stuck on 2 minutes for quite a while now. If the page would actually load, I'm sure it'll tell me tough luck at this point.

Brooks' department is not tickets. His title is Vice President, Marketing. Yes, he's approachable, but I don't think he has ANY control over this.

That's why the lottery makes sense. You still may have a snowball's chance, but it levels the playing field. Swing and a miss on tix here, btw. Surprised?
