TOPIC: Best Wishes on getting Grind tickets

Wanted wish folks good luck on getting their grind tickets later today.

I predict all grind runs will be sold out in the first half hour, if not sooner.

,anyone that got the 11,12 or 1:00 grind runs on Saturday, and has two slots for either one for sale for my daughter and I, please let me know

I managed to get shut out.

Would love a full run if someone has an extra.

Also would live 2 tickets to Thursday or Friday if available

You were over 30x too conservative -_-

For anyone who actually got tickets to grind; did the treasure draws make any difference in your purchase?
If there was zero treasure given out for grind, would you still have bought as many tickets as you did?

As someone who would buy out runs to grind, the answer is no, the treasure draws make no difference. My guess is that treasure means pretty much nothing to people playing grind.

I submitted my wishlist the second it hit noon, and I didn't get any Grind tickets.
Of course, with only fifteen slots available, it only takes two people to grab all the Grind, and that's only because there are some overlaps.
When you can't get one single Grind run with a Patron badge, that's a serious issue.

I missed getting a true grind again this year, looking for 1 spot.

I wonder if it could be set up not only to check for time conflict, but also only allow each person to buy for a single grind?
...even if there ARE 30 people trying buy full runs, this check would at least prevent the first couple from carting every run, leaving the rest constantly refreshing until they release tickets.

They might still sell out in the first five minutes, but hopefully not in the first two seconds. I think one full run is a good limit. At least before tickets are even available to normal attendees.

I've always thought Grind should be limited to just the three treasure draws, to save the limited number of tickets for those that are playing for the pure enjoyment of Grind.
