    For Reno I got my first two emails off shortly after the time (seconds after the time) and the third was probably by 0801 - and I didn't get that 3rd ticket - so I'd have to agree that most likely the 400 would go in first 30-45 seconds. Although at Reno there were reportedly over 2000 requests. They had to send out each positive response individually since these were used as your entry ticket and each email had the personal name and telephone number on it - so they couldn't send out the mass email and bcc everyone. Sounded like it was a pain in the arse process. Then on Facebook they posted that if you hadn't received a positive reply by x time - then it was a no go.

    Ah...sorry, you are right. Naperville is general admission seating in folding chairs. I'm not surprised seats are still available.

    So I sent off a few emails for Sarasota too. My in-laws live there and they are pretty much computer illiterate so I did it for them. The instructions didn't specify what information to include so I just sent a request for a ticket without any other information. Were we supposed to include Name, address, phone, etc??

    They didn't ask for anything in the body of the email. Just a header request.

    Based upon your avatar, I'd say the body does matter.

    Well hopefully it's fine. I included a header and a request for ticket/reservation in the body.

    If any of you hear from Barnes and Noble, will you please post so I can stop my wishful thinking and move on to other things in life?

    It's likely (IMO) that recipients will be notified in a ~2 hour or less time frame.

    You either get one, or you don't. Fretting about it, calling the store, etc. doesn't increase your chances-it just slows them down for the people who get one.

    We will all know by sometime on Monday.

    Relax, take a deep breath (and stress-tab).

    They said by Monday, so I'm guessing tomorrow morning will be when the recipients are notified. People could be notified today, but I wouldn't bet on it.

    If they are going to announce today, It might be smart to do just before or at closing time. Just a thought.

    No news here yet either, but since my request was sent seven minutes late, I'm not too hopeful. Oh well, on to other things I guess. To everyone fortunate enough to gain a ticket to this event -- congratulations and have fun.
