The Lone Ticketing Genius...
...doesn't exist. Simply put, there is almost no chance that some one sitting on the outside can have a brainstorm and come up with a solution that no one else saw.
This has not kept people from trying.
The roll of shame:
The "Perfect" Solution
Nice dog in the manger, if I can go no one should be permitted, approach
A "radical thinking" approach.
I love it how things are always "obvious" (as in "Captain"?)
I can't figure out what to call this...
Greed and Laziness!
Ridiculous
Hey, my company can do this!
Slipping in the identity tickets solution in the last paragraph is at least a little different...
Identity again.
Less a "solution" than a not accepting the origins of the problem as something in the real world.
A way to direct tickets to theme camps.
A fresh approach.
A joke. I hope.
I'm going a little numb, here...
The room is swimming before my eyes...
Because my small festival can be scaled up directly.
I don't have time to see if my idea has been put forth before.
OOoo! This one is "multi-faceted".
At least there's a dirty joke by Ugly Dougly for entertainment value here.

Down with Ravers!
I am not going to go through and count how often the "occupy" solution was proposed...
Well, we could have burned more incense to this predictive idol.
So, there are ten pages of threads in this sub-forum. These are the pertinent posts (as descerned from the titles) first three.

Awesome!
Now I have something to read when hell freezes over, or if I ever get stuck in an elevator on a Carnival Cruise.
(assuming I have my laptop, and that the wi-fi signal is strong in the shaft.)

ROFL!
I liked the "dog in the manger" approach. It had a certain je ne sais quoi about it.

All those ideas simply pale in comparison to my solution to the highway capacity problem:

My partner is always proposing human catapults as the solution to gridlock/transit woes/everything else that's wrong with the world.
A human catapult from Gerlach to BRC would be pretty cool.

If you want drama to stop following you everywhere, try letting go of the leash.

There'd be mats to land on.
