Maybe he might win me a ticket to ME this time around.
It'd be nice for it not to be all me!

I think if you win two they are. I believe Caleb said that.

First question - is it 100% established that the tickets will be non-transferrable? if so, what are the reasons for this?

Second Question - if there is a legitimate reason why you cannot play, having qualified, could you defer your ticket to the next final?

Third Question - If you already have a main event ticket (sick brag), what happens if i now go and win a second ticket? Will i hold those tickets over to the next final, get cash for it, or be able to sell to someone else?

1) If you don't have direct buy-in but allow players to transfer their tickets, it becomes the only source for being able to purchase the ticket, thus creating a false market. It will also allow anyone with a spare $1200+ to just buy a ticket without supporting the satellites and event to qualify. While this is a premium event, we still want the average pub player to be able to qualify on the same playing field.

Basically, you don't want one without the other.

2) I think so. Have to check with the big boys on that one.

3) Yes, transferable. The only time they are is when you have 2 or more tickets.

As for everything else, I leave it for the higher ups.

I must've misunderstood. He must have meant that you could transfer it to a subsequent event.

I havent read anything but if multiple tickets are won I am happy to have them transferred to another player (who meets the qualification criteria) or transfer to the subsequent event.

I think it is quite illogical to say anything but the above.

I'm not back yet mate, start again next Monday but I thought that some clarification was required. There is no way secondary tickets would not be transferrable and I will address this with the team.

Not bringing any Texan girls back with me..... Yet. In all honesty the customer service over here is hands down the best I have ever experienced and I mean just in the fast food joints. It would be interesting to bring some of these girls/guys over to run tournaments.

Beat me to it maffau, I was going to mention something about a similarity to prostitutes begging for your services.
