Found it in spam. I wonder. now that you can do "best available" does it still improve your chances to not go for GA pit and just go straight for reserves or is it best to try for the GA pit as well?

You’re chances don’t change. Basically they draw your name, you have best available, if there are any GAs you get that otherwise RES.
If you only want GA or RES you shouldn’t pick best available. I’m going straight RES. I’m done with GA.

I wish they were coming to Norway. Will be impossible to travel this year, with everything that is happening in my life.

what does the "Best Available" option mean? If you win the lotto, pick GA and there aren't any, you get RES? If you pick RES and and there are GA you get those? It's a bit confusing there.

You are placed in both draws.

So the only reason not to choose that is if you definitely dont want GA?

Correct. I chose reserved.

Cool that they will have an online ticket sale option if you can't go. Also interesting that the "not transferrable" clause doesn't apply in Colorado or NY

I went with best available. I was in the pit at the last Baltimore show in 2013. It was fine, I just hung out in the back of the pit and avoided the crowd swells closer to the stage.

The pit at Wrigley is 2018 was pretty relaxed. No one around me was aggressive and there was plenty of room to move around before the show to grab some beers/go to the bathroom.

53 odds for GA. 99 for reserved is how I read it.
I believe this is correct
So 99% of those that request reserved tickets should get them as of when those numbers were posted? Correct?
Historically it's meant that everyone who puts in for them gets them, i.e. they have more tickets than have been requested, since they don't show 100%.

It's a good start and I'm sure the singles help a great deal, but the odds swing by 5-10% on the last day alone.
We would’ve put in for GA but I’m too old and Mrs Wease would not like the pit at all.

I could be wrong here, someone on the pit said TM is keeping the RES odds locked in at 99%

Registered for Nashville. I actually have a friend who wants to go; which hasn't happened for a Pearl Jam trip in a while.

It's surprising to me the amount of fans that are anti-TM that are making up "conspiracy theories" about TM and this process. It's more pathetic than I would have guessed.
