***All Social Club Members*** Important!!

[ausfatcat]

If we make it and I manage to get a ticket and that ticket is a seat, and someone put's up a compelling case that they need a seat and can't stand I will swap with them.


Theres a lot of if's their thou

[terry smith rules]

At the end of the day, if all members are guaranteed a ticket, regardless whether its standing or seating, everyones happy! A once in a lifetime opportunity, to go to the game to see the best teams in the league play. Would be a great feeling. Lets just focus on tomorrow night, and see how things go... I dont think there is anything to worry about... for now

no but is distracts us from the knots in the stomach for tomorrow

well i just rang
last week on registration day at around 2 hrs before cut off they said around 90% had registered out of the 11500.

i rang just then and asked for the actual number and was told they dont know and are not told the official number of how many of the 11500 SC members did actually register.

so now we cant work out how many did register, how many tickets are left over to then wok out if the 15% standing is going to spill over to the second chancers and Sept Sainters.

youd think the club would be told how many of their SC members registered

[ausfatcat]

I still think ticketmaster has stuffedup and we will find out tomorrow.

[Superboot]

so if we have 15% standing room out of the 12500 allocated to stkidla then that is around 1875 standing room

That's true but I'm not sure that the 1000 tickets the club has for discretionary allocation (12,500 minus 11,500) would contain any standing room if the club has control over this. Can't see it somehow.

So the 1875 might actually come out of the 11,500, which amounts to 16.3%

as BS said in another thread the 1000 (out of the 12500) are for players, families etc etc
i think he is correct here
they aint gonna be standing tickets either id imagine

[Stephen Theodore]

I stood at the 2004 G.F between Port and Lions. Had reasonable viewing, but was there by 11:00am at the latest. Fairly big day especailly if you're getting on a bit.

Still better than the other alternative I had - Watching it in a pub.

1000 allocation is all seating I believe, plus the 15% refers just to the 11500.

It doesn't seem the 1000 tickets will be going to any members at all unless they want to pay $1300.

Well as long as it's 15% of 11,500 and not 15% of 12,500, I guess it could have been worse.

it cant be
those thousand tickets include those 1300$ packages and im not sure family and friends would be offered standing room tickets either
the standing has to be included in the 11500 surely

But according to ausfatcat, as I read it, there are 1000 seats and then 85% of 11,500.

That means 1725 standing room all up, not 1875

[matrix]

thats what im thinking
the standing room %age comes out of the 11500

[joffaboy]

So let me get this straight.

We have 11,500 SC members which 90% have registered for GF tickets

this equals 10,350 registrations.

We have 12,500 allocated tickets of which there are 1,000 standing room tickets

this leaves 11,500 seated tickets

If the 1,000 $1300 packages take seats

this leaves 10,500 seated tickets for SC members.

considering only 10,350 (90% of 11,500 SC members) have registered, this means

1) All 10,350 SC registered members get seated tickets
2) 1000 $1300 package holders get seated tickets

leaving

1) 150 seated tickets for September Saints
2) 1000 Standing room for Sept Saints etc.

All assuming, of course the SC 90% registration is the correct figure.

[terry smith rules]

we all seem to be on the same track

bottom line is we are at about 6/1 to not get our bottom on a seat

of course those odds inprove dramatically with the more september saints there are, because you could not see them getting seats (sorry people)

break it down further if there are say 500 sept saints and they are all standing room then that leaves 1350 out of 11000 for s/c (odds go out to about 12/1)

wow... not an accountant by any chance, are you?

[terry smith rules]

my brain is now starting to hurt

[Kate]

If 15% are standing room then there are 1875 standing room tickets and some SC members will be offered standing room.

[ausfatcat]

If 15% are standing room then there are 1875 standing room tickets and some SC members will be offered standing room.

1725 standing room tickets.

9775 seated tickets


Approx SC members registered: 10350

therefore At least 575 SC members will be standing.

and 1200 standing tickets for the Sept Saints

We have 12,500 allocated tickets of which there are 1,000 standing room tickets

No 11500, the other 1000 is for players, employees, family and packages and are all seated, this is not included in the social club tickets.

People stop getting the 1000, tickets mixed up with competing club members allocation, it's seperate and people are getting the figures all mucked up based around the 1000 ticket allocation forget about it, They aren't open to members unless they want to pay $1300.

It's seperate


Saying that thou there maybe additional tickets available to club members on tuesday or wednesday next week based on how well sales of packages and corprate seats go (anywhere from (0 to 1000 extra per competing club).

[Richter]

If 90% of social club members registered (out of 11500), and 85% of the allocated tickets (12500/11500) are seated tickets then approx 5% of social club members i.e. around 5-600 people will be offered standing room tickets.

It is for the proportion of these 600, (noble 600!) there are likely to be some who ticked NOT standing as a preference - it is for these people that this information applies......

[mordi]

I think we covered this last week in this thread;

http://www.saintsational.com/forum/view ... c&start=75


The key issue was the response from Ben Hall of the club (in writing);

"The AFL does not tell me exactly our allocation. However, they have advised me that they believe almost all Social Club members will get a seat. It also depends on how many register. We have had about 75% register so far. Yes seats will be given to Social Club members first."

The last point is the key....

[Superboot]

We have 12,500 allocated tickets of which there are 1,000 standing room tickets

this leaves 11,500 seated tickets

Joffa, I don't think this bit is correct.

From what others have been saying, the standing room is equal to 15% of 11,500 i.e. 1725

Seated tickets equals 10,775, but members only have access to 9,775 of them

[joffaboy]

If 15% are standing room then there are 1875 standing room tickets and some SC members will be offered standing room.

1725 standing room tickets.

.

9775 seated tickets


Approx SC members registered: 10350

therefore At least 575 SC members will be standing

if this is the case and 90% SC regos is correct, 575 SC members will be offered standing room.

This means you have a 5.555555% chance of getting a standing room ticket, or a 1 in 18 chance.

Haven't looked at the ratio yet

[Mr Magic]

So if I registered all 8 of our Barcodes am I likely to get only:-
8 seats
or
8 standing room tickets

Not a combination of seats/standing room?

[ausfatcat]

well i just rang
last week on registration day at around 2 hrs before cut off they said around 90% had registered out of the 11500.

Next time you ring ask how many Sept saints their are that have registered.





Please
