I don't think all what is written is true. I have 1 seat in Newcastle: 1st row. 6 seats RAH first night first row. But 3 seats Cologne 7th row (but didn't have a code, which seemed to be crucial in Germany this time). So maybe my internetconnection is faster or whatever, but I don't see a connection between number of tix and seats
No, I don't think there is, either.
Strangely enough, however:
I've booked 2 (veeery quickly!) for one night at the rah.
Later the same day I've booked another 4 for the same show.
How come I was assigned 6 bad seats all next to each other in row xy (sfa...) ?
That's the missing piece that solves the puzzle. It clearly shows they do what they want.
If I refer to their own rules "We assign our seats on a first-come, first-served basis, and we have assigned your seats as close
to the stage as we possibly could given the volume of orders placed just before yours came through.", you should have been assigned two groups of seats : 2 "better" seats and 4 "worse" seats. The only possibility to have 6 seats together is nobody ordered in-between, which I doubt.
Then there's something wrong :
On one hand, we can say there were a lot of orders otherwise your seats would be better.
On the other hand, getting 6 consecutive seats despite delayed orders show that there were not so many demands.
That's a fascinating paradox.
The only logical reason is mk.com has been caught in a time warp !
Anyway it's good to see that most AMITers got great seats !
