    Tuesday April 7

    I want to request more. and I am not overly concerned with dates other than June 26. SO if I do get to request these and someone had their heart set on a date I requested, I am fine with deferring.

    I have $5. No I don\'t.

    5/11

    9/27

    My guess is that these may be gone, but I want to put them in if they are available. I’m sure at least 1-2 more to come.

      Since that’s the only time the Gnats are at the Coliseum all season (wtf?), I’m uncomfortable requesting multiple games for one person. Do you have a preference?

      If this is His will, He's a son of a bitch.
      • 5Aces Jan 22,2015 11:07 pm || Up

        No preference and would only want one of them-sorry for not saying that up front.

        • ptbnl Jan 23,2015 12:21 pm || Up

          OK – I’ve put you in for the Saturday now, but when I make the request I’ll ask that it be move to the Sunday if the Saturday is taken.

      welcome.

      your post should show up automatically now

      I have $5. No I don\'t.
  10. batgirl Jan 23,2015 12:56 pm

    I’d love to put in for 5/13 if possible, but I know it’s Red Sox so they may not want to give that up. Thanks!

    I’ll have more dates shortly.

    • ptbnl Jan 23,2015 1:05 pm || Up

      No problem – recall that a single Red Sox fan was getting all 3 games in previous years. We’ll ask for them all and see who gets lucky!

      If this is His will, He's a son of a bitch.
      • Future Ed Jan 23,2015 4:09 pm || Up

        did you mention that?

        I have $5. No I don\'t.
        • ptbnl Jan 23,2015 11:16 pm || Up

          Here or to the ticket owner? Both.

      Though if that doesn’t come through the other Indians games would be second choices.

      "There's never enough time to do all the nothing you want"
  12. batgirl Jan 25,2015 3:52 pm

    A few more dates if I may:
    April 28
    July 21
    August 22

  13. vignette17 Jan 25,2015 4:22 pm

    Can I add 8/8 vs Astros as well?

  14. ptbnl Jan 28,2015 9:40 am

    The first round of requests will go in on February 1st.

    Please double-check the list above to make sure I have not made any mistakes in my transfers of requests to the table.

    Also please let me know which (if any) dates are priority ones – for example, my 7/17 will be with my visiting father-in-law, brian.only’s 9/8 is his annual dual-birthday bash (I believe), etc.

    If this is His will, He's a son of a bitch.
  15. Future Ed Feb 14,2015 11:27 am

    dammit

    I have $5. No I don\'t.
  16. ptbnl Mar 6,2015 11:35 pm

    So with one embarrassingly obvious exception we didn’t do very well this year, with only 8 of our 31 requests confirmed.

    There are however 20 dates still available and we’ve been offered first refusal on them, so take a look at the list above and let me know in the comments if there’s anything that works for you.

    If this is His will, He's a son of a bitch.
    • DFA Mar 7,2015 11:22 am || Up

      Ouchies.

      In play, run(s)! Talk dirty to me gamecast, talk dirty. - Nevermoor
    • DFA Mar 7,2015 11:27 am || Up

      considering that they only have ~20 dates available, next year it might make more sense for them to give us a list of what they are willing to part with instead of doing it this way, might be less work.

  17. Future Ed Mar 7,2015 6:22 am

    Can I ask for Wednesday 4/8 and monday 6/29?

    I would ask for monday 8/31 too but that seems greedy

    I have $5. No I don\'t.
    • ptbnl Mar 7,2015 7:18 am || Up

      Unless someone else here wants it, we can be as greedy as we like now so I’ve included it pending other requests below.

    0 for 4! Let’s do Tuesday August 4!

  19. 5Aces Mar 7,2015 11:46 am

    friday 5/15 pls.

    Camelot sure fell apart, didn't it? -Steve McCatty
  20. Englishmajor Mar 7,2015 12:57 pm

    If anyone who didn’t get a date they asked for really wants my 9/22, I’m amenable.

  21. vignette17 Mar 8,2015 11:40 pm

    I will take 5/30, 7/4, and 7/18 if possible. I think that’s all the remaining Saturdays, so if anybody here is looking for a Saturday, I can switch or back out of one or two.

  22. nevermoor Mar 9,2015 10:32 am

    Just saw this. How long do we have to noodle over the availables?

        We’ll take the Giants exhibition, then. Thanks!

    I’m off in the AM to Florida and thence to my cruise, so I sent $88 for 9/22 now in case I don’t have the connectivity to do it until I get back.

    I’ll be picking the tickets up on Tuesday morning, so if anyone wants any of the last 7 dates now would be a good time to shout.

    Thanks all for another very smooth process, at least at our end.
