If this lottery system works, I hope they adopt it for D23 Expo in 2021. It sounds better to know ahead of time instead of waiting for hours, sleeping on hard concrete, to find out that you won't be getting in.

From the sounds of it and my experience it wasn't the greatest.

I have heard of many people getting in line for panels at 2am at Star Wars Celebration and then not getting in. I think I would just rather gamble up front then gamble my whole night away on a concrete floor. Also, at D23 Expo, they seem to sometimes screw up the lines and let late comers in before the people that camped out overnight in the basement, causing the campers to not get int.

Besides not getting into the SWGE panel, which was not a guarantee at all, even if you had waited in line, what has not worked with the lottery system? Sorry you missed the panel.

I get that but there seemed to be some glitches as well but I guess that can be expected with this first time using this system. Nothing is perfect that is for sure.

I can see the good and the bad.

With the lottery you'll know ahead of time.

At least with waiting in line, if I really want to see it I can (of course there are caveats, like last D23's animation panel).

I don't think a lottery will eliminate the over night lines, though. People will still want a good seat.
