📊 How It Works

Assignment Transparency

A fair, public process — designed so no one can influence outcomes.

⚡ Short Version

Once the drop closes, orders are locked. A public random number determines where assignments start, then proceed sequentially through the order list. Results are published at 4:00pm PT. Email notifications will follow.

📊 Fair & Transparent

How Orders Are Assigned

Every drop uses the same public, verifiable process — no favoritism, no exceptions.

🔒
1
Orders Locked

When the drop closes, all orders are locked and anonymized. No new orders or changes accepted.

Random Start Number

A public two-digit number (00–99) is pulled from the NIST Randomness Beacon — unpredictable by anyone.

Assignments Made

Starting at the random number, assignments proceed sequentially through the order list. Results published. Email notifications will follow.

⏱ 4:00pm PT
🪑 Seating Together
Multiple packs in one order are always assigned the same game — your group stays together.
🔢 Tie-Breaker Rule
If two orders share the exact same timestamp, they're ordered by sequence ID assigned at purchase.
📣 Results Published
Every assignment result is published publicly after each drop — anyone can verify the outcome.

Powered by NIST Randomness Beacon

The random start number is generated by the National Institute of Standards and Technology — a publicly verifiable, tamper-proof source that neither MySeatPack nor any customer can predict or influence.

📊
A Note on Odds Accuracy
Published odds represent the target distribution for each drop. Because MySeatPack keeps group orders together (if you buy 3 packs, all 3 get the same game), actual assignment percentages may vary slightly from the published odds — typically by 1–3%.
Example: If a game has 5% odds on a 40-pack drop, that's 2 ticket slots. If the next order in line is a group of 4, all 4 seats go to that game to keep the group together — shifting the actual percentage from 5% to 10%. Other games adjust slightly to compensate. The larger the drop, the closer results match published odds.
