Interested to see how others in season ticket groups are handling a situation like this...
4 couples. 2 seats. 2 couples got to go to games last time the boys made the playoffs so naturally the remaining 2 groups get to go to the first 2 games. But what do we do after? Re-draw a new order? Or continue on with the existing rotation?
I'm in the 'keep the rotation' camp. Can I ask your arguments for redrawing? We haven't made a decision yet and I want it to be fair to all parties...
As it stands now I'd get Game 7/Rd2 Game 3... so redrawing could benefit me potentially (get game 5) but I still lean towards keeping the rotation.
Our group is one that fluctuates almost every season, so it’s our only playoffs together. I think keeping the same rotation would be easier if we were a consistent group. Since we aren’t, I feel like redrawing after 4 games keeps things a little more equal.

I think I have a great setup.... I pick the games I want, the share partners get what is left. This is the deal due to a work schedule that has my partner out of town for 8 day stretches and in town for 6 days...at times. They knew this was the deal going in, but they are happy because they get to pay what I pay for seats. I don't make a dime off this setup.

Well if they are your season tickets, it's your rules.
I own my seats, but all the boys in the group did sign a very fair contract for ticket sharing, drafts, etc (all equal) and we are low drama so it works out. Same group since day one and will continue to be for years to come which is nice.
I'm looking forward to reports after the game from our empty seat spotters so we'll know if it was a "real sellout".

The issue with re-drawing every 4 games is the possibility of the same people losing the draw, whether it be choice (preference) or possibly games this year, consecutively; however you could make a rule to fix that.We’re keeping our rotation, but I would prefer a redraw. I was outvoted.
This is our first time with this group for playoffs though, so we all (hopefully) will make it to more than 1 game. We’ve got 4 couples, and the first name drawn gets game 1, 2nd gets game 2, etc., and we repeat once all 4 couples have been.
It means a scalper got stuck with his seats. I've bought stubhub ticket for concerts in the last hour before beginning and you can litterally see the prices fall with each refresh.
If any seats haven't been scanned in by the end of the first period, someone from TNSE should print out those tickets and hand them out to random fans at the street party. Yeah, I know there are legitimate reasons why people might show up very late but still...
The **** storm that could cause with the STH would be massive. If I was very late to the game for some reason, got there and found out TNSE gave my seats to some random partier from outside, I'd be ****ing livid.
What if my car broke down? Bus was super late? Kid got sick? Etc etc

Funny how Winnipegers don't usually want the best ticket, they want the cheapest ticket!Still some lower bowl floating around now.
