oh - and i suppose best approach with the new system is to just be on an hour before on your various devices using different connections and wait to be pulled into a queue? -

Have read the whole thread, some of the tech advice goes a little beyond my knowledge but i love the committment to the cause! I like to think it comes from a good place but I agree with the poster ref entitlement, there is more than a whiff of it. Nobody is more or less entitled to go whether youre a 20 festival veteran or a newbie wanting to go. Personally I’ve tried since 2015 and only got through and went in 2023 for the first time and fell in love with Glastonbury, having done many others this is like the zenith for me and I adored the vibe of the attendees and array of culture on offer and I fully buy into the romance and history of it all. Last year we had 6 laptops, a dozen phones various connections and tried for hours and got nowhere - and the whole time there’s people using backdoor hacks etc or people with the luxury of teams and teams of people using spreadsheets to buy in blocks etc - if you get a ticket youre fine with the status quo and if you don’t - then more of a ballot doesn’t feel unfair in comparison, not sure you can say someone with smarter access deserves to go more or less than anyone else who wants to if youre both losing the skin off your finger hammering f5! 🤣 But having experienced it (just the once so far!) I do have some sympathy for regulars who would be concerned about a vibe shift if the attendee demographic drastically changed but…also unfortunately its jist the nature of the beast, in the same way Reading/Leeds adapts its musical offerings subject to what a-level/students are into and people will always have issue with it etc it’s not any of our place to gatekeep in that regard, and any system that levels the playing field is ultimately a good thing. I can see it’s a really good helpful community here so I hope my post doesn’t come across as attacking or anything! and wish everybody all the best next weekend/coach sales hopefully will stumble across some of you there! -
if you do then I should make you aware of my typo its HotWax - not Waz - i feel like that would have taken you to some weird porn -

So just easier on everyone to give the man the Legend Slot like he wants cos he knows he's better suited for it
