Is it possible to play in more than 1 event without dropping one sometime in the middle? I tried to play both Armada and XWing at a Worlds a couple of years ago and it wasn't possible. There was always some match conflict.

As long as you don’t play armada it is.

It is. As long as you don't get into any tops.
Wednesday Imperial Assault.
Thursday Armada
Friday X-Wing
Saturday Destiny

Even if you get into the tops, you can play the game from 9:30 till 2pm, do your tops, and go back to the game. Just not on Saturday. X-Wing swiss second round is on same time as Destiny.

I got in...now what to fly.. .

Alright... took till the last minute to convince the wife, but just reserved my spot. See you all in May. And I do hope all of you that are wait listed get tickets.

Hello Player,
Thank you for applying to compete at the 2018 May 2018 World Championships. Unfortunately, your application was not randomly selected from the pool of general applicants for Star Wars ™: Destiny.
However, you and other unselected applicants for each game will be eligible to participate in its second-chance ticketing round at 12:00 PM CST on Saturday, March 31st. Any Star Wars : Destiny tickets that remain will be available for purchase on a first-come, first-serve basis at that time. You will receive an invitation email on March 29th with further instructions.
If you applied for multiple games, please check your inbox for a selection or non-selection email for each individual game. These emails should be delivered by 11:59 PM CST today, February 23rd. Be sure to check your Spam and other folders carefully before contacting us at [email protected] on or after February 24th.
Please read our registration article for further information on the registration timeline, and visit our World Championships webpage .

I believe this is the text of the email that should have been sent to non-invitees. So the answer to the question is: we will find out on the 29th.

Probably in a clustereff that involves a hodgepodge of misinformation and broken links leading to a website that crashes as people overwhelm it with requests.

Or maybe it will be super easy and everyone will tickets easy peasy.

When I emailed them about not getting an email, they said 1) I didn't get an Armada spot, and 2) I should have received the above email. I assume they didn't bother to find/replace Destiny with Armada. Neither did I. Funny story: my name isn't "Player" either. They got it all wrong!

Is there a separate registration for the team tourney? Are you volunteering to play Rebels? :)

Sign ups are in person on site (least they were last year).

And of course, haha.

I have a reserved seat. Got the e-mail. E-mail said I need to purchase by March 30th at 4pm. I click the link to purchase tonight and it's saying it's sold out. Lame. Did I wait to long?

Per the email:
Using this link now will say the event is sold out - the seats will become available for purchase at 12:00 PM noon CDT on March 31.

I clicked my link... and despite the the e-mail claiming I qualified for a free (0$) seat, I was called upon to pay 80 bucks. So either the e-mail is wrong or something is messed up.

Anyway. Not purchasing this ticket. Hopefully that means someone else will get a spot.

Weird. They couldn’t be bothered to tell me I didn’t get in the lottery but sent me two emails now (one for Wed, one for Thu). I’m not gonna let it stop me, just... strange

Yeah, I had the same issue with the "no negative response for the lottery" email. Not sure why that didn't go out.

Since Star Wars: Armada has multiple day 1s, you will receive a separate invitation for each day - please only purchase one ticket.

Per the email. They're basically running it as two events, it would seem, rather than a single event where you could sign up for either day. Hence the vaguely duplicate emails.

They also tweeted there was issues yesterday or today.

So everyone has tickets now and it's all good?

Yep, I’m good!

I have the same email and issue. When I click the link it takes me to the purchase page but there is no option to select a ticket. Did I miss my chance?

I tried to get tickets today, but when the show clix site went live, the only number of tickets I could select from the drop down was “0”. After a few minutes, it changed to sold out. I’ll try again on April 10th, but this system seem so to keep having problems.

No go for getting tickets... I’ll try in April but I’m not holding my breath

There is an opportunity in April???

April 10th I believe all remaining tickets go free for all, no. Need to have registered or anything.

But when they are gone they're gone.

@Green Knight did you email organized play? They should iron that out.

@SgtDurandal Email organized play. They should be able to square you away. I got a separate email with a new link that worked.

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll do that now.
