Check out the story if you haven't already, about the BM staff retreat.

"The group engaged in activities to help us deliver quality feedback to our co-workers, skill-building sessions to help us make better decisions, and opportunities to evaluate how we’re measuring up against our 5-year goals (and 3-year goals, and 1-year goals). We read feedback emails from participants about this year’s event in Black Rock City and discussed strategies for making improvements."
They were really stressing the "participant feedback" aspect of it. By far the biggest complaint last year was about the ticket system. Reading between the lines, I'd say the lottery system is out.

Well, the part I hated most (although I benefitted from it) was direct distribution.

Re: Inferences about 2013 tickets
My only two cents is in regard to "Bringing in Expert help...". Bringing up expert help is more inclusive. during the Ticket nightmare of last year It appeared that a well written Critique by A professional PR administrator from within the ranks drew a reaction resulting in a public response by the BMORG owning up to the "Ticket Situation".
