I remain totally flabbergasted that this election can be close...    

6 of you had a chance before though. And you each got several hundred throws of the dice. Now you only have 6...

It can be combatted if Glastonbury choose to entirely hide your queue positioning, but I think this would cause a lot more frustration as people could miss their slot if they look away for a few minutes, or sit on the queue for hours and hours and never get through as their position was way beyond what was likely to have a chance anyway.  This system is de-facto a ballot anyway, it just requires you to log on at 8.55am and manually complete the purchase, but creates the opportunity to sell queue positions, meaning a ballot would actually be fairer and wouldn't allow tickets to be sold to the highest bidder.  The original system should have stuck, and I say that as someone with a 3/11 success rate. 

Maybe NIN doing it again cause they enjoyed 2022 so much?

Yep, too much time on their hands (ironic as spent a ton of time researching how to get tickets easier i know😅)
