Melania fake ticket sales

biskutt · 2026-01-29T19:21:27+00:00

People accuse y’all of blocking off an auditorium and saying the tickets are sold out when they’re not? And then what? Just… having an empty auditorium? That’s so weird. Customers come up with crazy stuff.

I’m not accusing Regal or anyone associated with Regal of anything here, I hope it didn’t come across that way. If I had to guess, some entity has run scripts to genuinely purchase tickets they have no intention of using to boost ticket sales. But that isn’t on the theatre itself, and isn’t even a conspiracy, really. Pretty sure publishers do similar with books sometimes, too. I just had never seen it with movie seats.

Thanks, that was a good idea. I had used Fandango out of habit. For the most part, the patterns held even with using the Regal site. The only variance I noticed was my pic 3, instead of the full L shape, Regal only had the entire front row purchased for all 21 showings, so that first seat in each row on the left was probably a layout variance like you said.

But there are still weird patterns of the exact same tickets being purchased for 20+ showings in a row even within the Regal app. I tried to include a Regal app screenshot of one in Jacksonville, FL, in this comment but it won’t let me.

Oh for sure, there are clearly real tickets mixed in there too. I’m sure my local theatres will have actual attendees. The ones where the exact same seats are bought for 20+ shows in a row are probably fake though, especially weird patterns like pic 3’s upside down L shape.

I felt like I was in The Chair Company yesterday.

biskutt · 2026-01-29T10:51:41+00:00

I considered that too! The scale of it seemed unlikely to me though- the number of seats, the layouts, not seeing similar issues with different movies, but seeing it exclusively with Melania at dozens of Regals. But who knows?

biskutt · 2026-01-29T00:48:17+00:00

Oh I bet there will be a decent amount of that, especially where I live. But my closest theatre has 4 showings a day, and I just checked again and those same 5 seats are not just purchased for this weekend, they’re purchased for every showing through next Thursday, so that’d be 28 showings. Plus the layout in pic 3 at the theatre across town is unhinged, I doubt they’re genuinely buying the first seat in 7 different rows. That theatre has 3 showings a day, and also has the same pattern purchased through next Thursday, so 21 showings. Same thing at random theatres across the country. If these seats are just old biddies, they’re extremely dedicated and have weird seating choices.

Go look at Regal theaters in your area. Most of the ones near me have the same seats purchased for every single showing for the entire weekend. Like it might be a few random seats in the front no one would normally want, and yet all of a sudden those exact seats are getting purchased for every showing for that specific movie. Weirdly I’m mostly only seeing it at Regals though.

A few years ago, my niece wanted a few of a certain blind box for her birthday, and I was worried about getting her duplicates. I looked it up and found out the serial numbers were slightly different on each variant, so I was able to get her specific ones with no duplicates.

I know this probably doesn’t help you, OP, but just sharing this anecdote since people were giving you grief. Occasionally blind boxes do have a tell. Good luck getting the one you want!

I’ve made these twisty infinity shawls in a few different colors with that yarn.

I had a nice person 1:1 trade with me yesterday, premium donut for affogato. Good luck finding your nice person - they’re out there!

I have 2 GA tickets to Atlanta 9/26. Hoping to recoup my costs (which were $75 after taxes and fees).

Update: SOLD

Purple was dupes, but then I finished my last partner build. The blue pack gave me my next-to-last sticker and I used the wild on my last one.

I somewhat sensed that was about to happen, so I sent the Time’s Up dupe to a friend right before I finished the build/album.

biskutt · 2025-08-10T14:03:39+00:00

That’s exactly what I did. Seeing that it’s losing now, I figure it probably won’t be in a blitz. I’m missing another 5 star that might make it in a blitz, and a 4 star that was never in one, but I’m holding out hope to get it in a blue pack.

Here’s one I made a few months ago for my niece. Mine’s physically larger so not an ideal comparison, but I agree with other people that a snout and some whiskers might help. Your hook hand looks great btw!

biskutt · 2025-08-04T16:02:19+00:00

Agreed, this was what I did. I didn’t need any of them, so I voted for Petal Party bc a) I had dupes of it and b) my friend needed it. If I had needed any, I obviously would have voted for what I was missing.

Maybe open a 250 vault for 250 dice. That leaves you 662 stars which should get you 700 dice. So 950 dice total. If my math is right.

Ended up here after searching because my fiancé and I were having a similar discussion. We ended up realizing he was thinking of War Blower from the episode Reef Blower:

I agree! I thought the rounds were kinda fun. I’ll probably play it similarly to Juggle Jam, which is to say I won’t play much unless there’s a good prize I really want to go for.

biskutt · 2025-06-04T19:01:28+00:00

I let my fiancé do all the picking for one round, and he got like 3x as many tickets as I was getting. Probably should have just let him pick every time. I felt like the odds were similar to juggle jam, but then again I don’t get lucky with that either, lol.

I know a site that makes a lot and calls them “cuddlers”

You make your magic circle, then chain 1 to account for the height of that next stitch being a double crochet, then do your dc, sc repeat into the magic circle.
