[QUOTE="TCUdirtbag, post: 2396725, member: 61297"] Yeah, maniac is a good example of a point I've made before--the "upgrade" process is all about luck. I've been stuck in 235 low double letters for 2 years and upgraded last Wednesday. Was able to move down some but maniac has a lower row and is in a slightly better section. His account is way behind mine. But the upgrade process is all about who drops or moves and who doesn't from year to year. Congrats on the good seats maniac - it's good to know those prime seats will be filled with purple every week. Maybe one day I'll get lucky and get those armchairs further down 234 - the holy grail. One thing to keep in mind is more priority points typically equals more loyalty (in terms of always renewing). So the better your rank the less likely anyone in front of you is moving. With post-2012-reseating adjustments, there are some good seats pretty far back in the priority points line because their recent owners dont give any other money, buy parking, or buy other season tickets, but had higher rankings in 2012 that are now getting priced out or worn out and dropping. This is allowing folks further back the PP order to luck into excellent seats as they come available, days after folks with higher ranks were unable to pick up such good seats. The process is really structured as fairly as it can be. But I hope folks like maniac realize they have been able to skip ahead to better seats than a lot of folks with more points due to dumb luck. Something worth keeping in mind next time you complain about "people with more points" or the seating process generally. Sometimes the system glitches benefit the lower ranked. [/QUOTE]
