Important info about registering for GF tickets

[undy]

Really sorry that I don't regulary post. I do regularly read all you guys' posts. I thought you would love to have as many hard core swans lovers there as possible. I have been a member for several years and have gone to most games since 1995. However, I do understand that my little group of 4 among 100,000 could taint your enjoyment of the game.

Relax:
1 gazillion = about 50 in the new maths.

Hi Jenny,

Do you (or anyone else) know how the ballot works ?

If all registrations were for 1 ticket, then I can see how it would work.
But registrations are for varying numbers of tickets.

Does each membership on a registration go in the ballot with an equal chance of being drawn (and if they aren't all drawn whole registration fails)
or
Does each registration have an equal chance of being drawn
or
Is there a weighting applied to each registration in line with the number of memberships on it ?


Is there any chance that the preference votes that trickle down from the Australian Sports Party will influence the ballot ?

Cheers,
Andy

Hi Andy,

All registrations have an equal chance of being drawn (by group, not individual membership). Groups are one in, all in. The only instance where a group would be 'all out' if they were selected in the ballot would be, for example, if you had 8 people in your group and there were only 6 tickets left in the member allocation. Hope that clears it up for you.

Member Services phone lines will open at 8am today, should anyone have any questions or issues. Good luck all!

Thankyou all done now. I had my profile setting for National and once I changed it to NSW it appeared all good now. Go Swans

There you go - pulse quickening , re-checking the barcode , triple-checking your credit card, wondering if the ticketek site has a problem as your typing fingers OD on adrenaline...... it must be ..... SEPTEMBER !!

Im in.

I'm in a hard predicament though - would love to see the boys in the Grand Final next week, but also am off to Europe for 8 weeks in november and could really use the money I would save from not going to Melbourne for the grand final.... hehehe still want us to win though on Saturday

If you put a couple of hundred dollars on the Swans to win (odds are currently about $3.60) then your costs are covered should you need to head to Melbourne. If they lose, you are still in a better financial position than if they had won (without the gamble). Just saying.

Completed my P1 registration and getting more confident as each day goes by. I guess that is a fan's natural optimism.

Well I bit the bullet and registered, I don't know how I'm going to find the money to get to Melbourne for the GF but if we beat Freo it'll be a good problem to have! Better start walking now...

Just wear your Swannies gear and stick out your thumb. I'm sure some nice Swannies people will pick you up.
