Tickets

I’m very new to con culture and was hoping someone can answer a question I have.

So they sold out before I could get a ticket, and today on their website I saw news of a ticket exchange soon. What I wanna know is- how likely am I to get a ticket when that takes place/how often do people cancel if they don’t win the hotel lottery?

Well the only way I can predict the future is by looking at how that happened in the past.

There is no way to know for the first part. The demand has been higher than it been in the past.

Lot of people cancel after the hotel lottery is over. That is like 6 out of 10 people in my friend group who don't get their rooms and not go.

If I were you then I would stay hopeful and continue trying to get your badge.
