what's the thought process behind coming into the 2025 headliners thread every day to moan about every possible headliner that's ever motioned? You're worse than suprefan
I'm probably going to get pelters for this, but surely we need to have a serious word about The Last Dinner Party popping up as a sub at festivals like this (not the only one) given their track record of cancelling shows and the fact they've got about 2 singles at best.
Really lazy booking for me, and I say that as a fan of the album.
It was already an 'arms race' lol. Do you not think this was the case when you could have hundreds of sessions/browsers/devices spam refreshing to get tickets? If anything it's toned down a bit now since you get your place in queue and that's it.
Generated queue IDs I'll give you thats fair enough, but there have been comparably dodgy workarounds in the past.
I was having a think about this the other day - if registrations were linked to, say, a passport number, so that each person could only have one number, and not game the system by appearing in loads of groups; on the face of it that seems a good idea.
but not everyone has a passport, and theyre about £120 for an British one (Irish ones are cheaper btw, and notably more sexy! come aboard!) so you're then upping the price of even applying for a ticket well beyond what some people can spare. Its not easy, every solution has a few more issues, its a pain in the arse making it 'fair'
