Because of this now there will probably either be sold tickets on eBay or empty seats not filled at the event.
Each ticket that was ordered is attached to an e-mail address and a name. I suspect people who intend on doing something like this will have used the same e-mail address for all their orders, so it's very unlikely they'll get away with it.
I do not believe I was and regardless I was at work, I am unable to print there in the first place
You could have saved the page and e-mailed it to yourself. :P It's just like ordering movie or concert tickets! But nonetheless, the e-mail will come. Just saying, when it comes to stuff like this, if you want to be super-certain, there are measures you can take.
I don't think a bunch of people told you to "**** off and volunteer for once in your life", but I really don't think now is the appropriate time for "me, me, me", either.
Agreed. I'm not wanting to make it a me time and I never want to, I am just validating my anger.
You're quoting me on saying things I never said, but if doing so makes you feel better, than I'm glad I can be of help to you.
I don't think you appreciate that I'm in the same boat here. I never checked up on the standing room because I put more urgency on the U18 issue. So it's news to me as well.
You clearly said there was standing room. You said you'd clarify numbers. That's all I'm quoting you on... Feel free to point out how this is quoting you on something you didn't say, if you'd like.
I'm just disappointed because coming from ACLDox I assumed this was official, confirmed information and you just needed to look up the numbers you didn't have on you.
Maybe I should have been more careful either way, but I'm just giving some feedback here: People believe what @ACLDox says about ACL events (go figure). If you aren't 100% sure that you're correct, better off just not saying anything.

When the ticket gets presented at the door what happens? Do they check peoples ID's to make sure the name is correct and the same as the ticket?
Everyone stop bitching.. omfg - you are not making it any better.
If you missed out, you missed out - deal with it.. that is life..
If you are flying interstate then there might be something they can do for you - and that is all.. why is everyone bitching and whining?..
sure, there are no more tickets - why do you get constructive about it?.. perhaps another room could be hired at the ATP for a big screen and extra seating - so you can watch from the venue... perhaps a door charge should be in place (to both main venue and standing room venue) to cover this cost...? or go set up a barcraft nearby.
Ehhh.. you make me sad some times SEA.. :'(
EDIT: I didn't get tickets, I've already spoken to Vanz a few days ago about helping out - so if that gets me in then great - otherwise I'll enjoy a weekend in Sydney and help organise a barcraft - but I'm not making any negative shit about missing out.. that doesn't help.. Instead I'll help out or try and do something constructive so I don't miss out.

I quoted myself on exactly what was said in that conversation. You're putting words in my mouth.
What more do you want from me? Do you want to burn me at the stake like Orb? Do you want me to step down or something? Where are you going with all this?
Should of given tickets to people who WOULD of gone before tastosis was announced.
Tbh I'm not even unrustled the slightest by having them there, I just want to hang out with people who are actually part of the community and can respect the games played on a super saiyan 5 level.
300 seats, ACL pls

Im just going to say one last thing before I'm out of this thread as life is to short to read this stuff and it makes me feel way to drained. When something happens not to your liking, please show respect in how you approach constructive criticism, and that once you have voiced your opinion, let that be it. Now, a lot of people have voiced their opinion respectively, but then once the admins have tried to answer your questions/calms/fears/anger don't keep retorting with other things he said/she said. The amount of time/work/effort the ACL guys put into things is astonishing, they don't get paid for it, and they do it out of the goodness of their hearts. Venue only has room for 300? So ******* what, make sure you're one of the 300. This rant is a lil misguided, this thread is actually relatively tame I spose, but I've seen this kinda shit in e-sports for the last 6 years and people need to stop qqing so much once something doesn't go 100% as they expected.
The amount of times I've seen people say, "BOYCOTT WCS!!!!" in the last few hours is ******* disgusting. Like, one week you're all about growing eSports, and then the next week you want to set a flame to it.
So who do the ticket holders get express entry over if you aren't allowed in the venue without a ticket? That's the one thing I am struggling to understand at this point.
Express entry over GA standing room only I can understand, but that isn't happening. I also understand that there was some miscommunication and assumptions made along the way, but this is written on your website which leaves me even more confused.
Is it express entry over no entry at all?
Express entry to the bar? (I like this)
Express entry to climb over the shattered dreams and river of tears created by limited tickets?
Help me understand! (sorry, quiet day at work)

If the ticket holders don't show up than the people waiting outside will be let in i guess. So ticket holders get express entry over non ticket holders waiting outside in the cold.

It will not be cold for I will be there to brighten up your day, put some warmth in your heart.

I doubt any of us want to boycott WCS, I guess you can say and expect that we will most likely be annoyed if we didnt get a ticket to this event. Its going to be awesome! I am sure that something will get sorted regardless, and yes Mayo a Barcraft will also be awesome .
I guess after today when we all have had time to de-stress we can work on a solution.
