    They always say July 15, but from past experience I've learned it's anywhere from 2 to 5 days late and will probably be much worse this year.

    Does anyone have any insight into why it takes 8-10 weeks to sort requests by priority points? Unless there's more to it than I'm picturing, that seems like a couple days of data entry and a sort command.

    The sorting by PP isnt the problem. Its the requested seating and those that want to move . Trying to their best to get people in to where they want to be and the options available. At least thats my guess.

    It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

    They have to contact everyone by phone and offer the ticket alternatives available to them at their place on the list. This is done one at a time, although I have heard there are four people working on the requests.

    Does it really matter if it takes an extra week or two? What will it change?

    Think he means people are asking what's taking so long...but there isn't a game in the next 3 months so what's another week if you know whether or not your request went through

    Can't buy single season tickets for another 60 days anyways

    Do we know this is going to be an iterative process? I hope it's not going down the list and calling everyone once and you get you're choice of what's available that day regardless of the changes that might happen after you're call.

    My vision is that essentially the list has to be reevaluated every time someone chooses to move and leaves open seats behind them because those could line up with the request of a person with more points who had already been called but wasn't able to fill their request.

    Now a guy who is in section 5 and wants closer to midfield shouldn't get called when seats open up in section 6, but someone should look at the list to make sure the people in section 8 who want to move to the sideline have a chance at them if they were called last week where there were no sideline tickets available.
    Some say it's a backward place. Narrow minds on a narrow way, but I make it a point to say. That that's where I come from.
