Well I'd say my odds of getting in have increased, still sucks to have to sweat it out another month and then will only have 2 months to plan for the trip.

Good on FFG for trying to make up for the mishaps that happened. I have to say, they might not always get it right the first time, but they always learn from what happened and make it right.

So if I am understanding the article correctly, the X-Wing tickets are going to be distributed randomly in Phase 1 due to the small number of remaining tickets. Does this sound correct? I met all the requirements, so if I don't get a ticket, I should end up with a reserved seat in May. I guess I will find out in about a month.

That's the way I read it. As long as you submitted feedback you're getting a ticket for the upcoming one or the next one in May (if you don't get one for this fall).

I admire FFG's OP team for this. The article comes off as sincere and truly trying to make reparations for the debacle that has been World's registration, and trying to accommodate as many people as possible.

Of course, they can talk up "Service Provider Failures" all they want and although that may have played a large part in the registration mess, the fact remains that for the second year in a row, Worlds registration has been mired in technical issues that see far too many people denied an opportunity to attend. The true value in FFG's statement will come during the next Worlds registration period, where we will see if these issues, "Service Provider" or otherwise, will be fixed. Again, though, I do admire them for doing what they can. I can only hope that the method in which they determine who "randomly" gets a Worlds ticket in this new phase is more elegantly handled than the last time.

That said, if it is a truly random "Lottery"-type system, I know I still won't get a ticket as I have never won a random drawing in my entire life ;) ;;;;;bghjghjg

Well as I have already one game which i succesfully registered (reserved spot)...I will not be getting a ticket for X-wing...as for me travelling from europe for just one gamesystem is not enough to warrant the expenditure...and with now split worlds...next year it will be even more unwarranted as to go twice to worlds for 1 game each is economical suicide...

Bump and a reminder that if you're registered, you should be getting an email by today. I've not received mine as of yet.

If you don't get one you should email OP tomorrow.

I am totally confused by what they are doing with the extra tickets. I can not find any place to provide my information in order to be randomly picked. Help please.
