of course everyone has a chance it might be small but it is a chance ... in my branch there were about 15 awaiting collection ... waterstones has 283 branches ... that makes 4245 copies for collection ... I collected early and was one of the first to get it .... so we just need to add the copies that were delivered now ... so 10,000 isn't so far off for waterstones I would say

1 in 10000 chance - not sure I fancy those odds! However if about 10000 entered the ballot then that's substantially better odds.

Having said that, I'll still take them!!!!

if someone else entered ... its down to 1 in 5000  still a vey long shot ... but slightly better

For a crazy moment I thought about buying a dozen or so copies and then the whole family getting a copy each for Christmas and me getting a dozen entries!! I didn't though!

from the rules I think if another person entered and has you as the other I think that will be ok .... but multiple entries with one registration number not

You didn't need reg number for Waterstones though? Do you mean the ballot? If so only me and the Mrs.

one entry per card so cardholder is one of the people the other needs to be declared within 24 hours if I remember rightly ... so thinking about it you could be the extra person if you brought more copies

As am I. If only we got tickets for perseverance and dedication. ?

Re the book

Interesting the discussions on here that the price varies from retailer to retailer. To be honest reading all the comments on how absolutely enthralling it is I reckon it’s been underpriced, should be at least thirty quid. Maybe that would have helped the ticket lottery for the dedicated on here. Taking my tongue out of my cheek I will admit I got someone else to buy my copy for my Xmas! The only drawback being  I won’t see it until then. Anyway help will be offered come ticket resale

Someone needs to speak to Michael about this! 

[vintagelaureate]

I still wonder the reasoning behind the ballot. Although it is a little ray of hope over the next few days. I'd love (us) to get sorted pre resale. That'd be magic going into the winter months. 

 

[semmtexx]

Yep. That lovely feeling of knowing you're off to glasto, sure beats the winter blues!

I see the Glasto registration page is live again, hope they kept a record of the ballot entries ?

[semmtexx]

Any news on the ballot?

Waterstones responded to somebody with the small print saying it will be within 6 working days of it closing, so could be waiting until the end of the week to find out.

Quite nervous now, two of my potential routes into Glasto could be ruled out this week

as long as you don't spell it incorrectly...

[vintagelaureate]

I'm actually speculating when the emails will go out. Surely, it'll be computerised and could be done automatically? 

Any one seen any news on any?

[brettredmayne]

I presume after its done Glastonbury will tweet saying congratulations to the winners

I have had my ipad in front of me all morning with my email app, I know the chances are slim though so I am not building up my hopes.
