I guess a lot of folks decided on the refund.....

I don't think 100 points would influence my decision. Heck, 100 points would not budge your place in line these days. But whatever.....

You don’t think that 100 points would move anyone past people in line? How many points do u have?

Not getting the 100 points will push you way back though.


Aug 20, 2020, 10:27 AM

Of course I am assuming that most people take the 100 points. It really doesn't seem completely fair if these are real priority points because the member donating $25,000 gets the same number of bonus points as the member donating $60.

Go Tigers!!!

Ur correct. The folks not getting the 100 will fall back. And the 25,000 buck donor of course has already been credited with his regular points. The 100 won’t be a big deal to them.

They are not trying to reward people for being loyal, they are trying to punish those who ask for a refund.

“Oh, you want a refund? Enjoy having less priority than the $60/year donors”

I like the idea to encourage donors not to request refunds, but was surprised to see that donors at all levels will receive the same bonus. Seems like that will effectively dilute the value of hard-earned points, unless many opt for refunds.

So, there was a footnote at the bottom of the email that said, “ Note: Additional bonus points opportunities are available for premium seat holders and will be communicated separately.”

Not sure what constitutes a “premium seat” though. Anyone have any ideas?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Generally that is box seats and Westzone Club seating****

100 or 50 points is not going to change the pecking order among the faithful Tiger fans. I think it is just a question as to whether you want to donate any money to the athletic programs in a year in which you only get the enjoyment of watching on TV. Not sure what I am going to do yet ..... have already opted out on tickets.

military_donation.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Dunno what u call faithful.. I've been donating


Aug 20, 2020, 10:53 AM

19 years and I only have 50ish points.

Well, if you don't give this year...you will be screwed.


Aug 20, 2020, 11:04 AM

IPTAY is forcing you to donate because you can't just give up 100 free points.

You'll be way behind for future playoff tickets and such.

Just me... my donation is a donation


Aug 20, 2020, 3:53 PM

I do it all at once in the winter, walk away and don't think about it.

I treat it the same same as a donation to United way or child cancer research.

I couldn't afford season tickets the first 8 or so years I donated to iptay. I donated and scalped tickets when I could.

So I had no intention of getting that money back. To me a donation is a donation.

I'm hoping I can get tickets. If not the measly 5 points won't convince me to donate that money. I'll probably just redshirt and use that money for next year's tickets.


But I won't say no to 100 points either.

I never intended to take back my donation so nothing lost on my end.

that is nuts. for $25000.00 y0u get 100 points if you give $60.00 you get 100 points

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Disagree


Aug 20, 2020, 10:42 AM

I could be wrong, but I think 100 points would significantly move your place in line. What do you think is the average donor point total?

Now if everyone elected to take the bonus, you wouldn't move. But, if you were one of the few that didn't, you could slide down significantly.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg2005_cws_champ.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Agree .. the only folks benefiting from the points would be


Aug 20, 2020, 10:52 AM

the ones with less than 100 points. I think I'm in the 450 range .. another 100 wont really do much for me. I would rather they roll my donation over to next year.

2024 purple level memberbadge-donor-15yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Nothing to gain, but a $h1t-ton to lose if you don't give.


Aug 20, 2020, 11:02 AM

Good luck trying to make up the free 100 bonus points.

I have 180 points and I've noticed that 200 is often the cutoff on getting more tix (bowls )An extra 100 points will be very beneficial to me

military_donation.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I wouldn't get too excited.


Aug 20, 2020, 11:15 AM

Most people are probably gonna do this deal, so it's basically just gonna screw those who don't while minimally impacting those who do.

Re: I wouldn't get too excited.


Aug 20, 2020, 11:25 AM

Not too sure that’s true. Lower level donors would be more likely to leave their 2020 IPTAY donation in for $25,000 worth of points, but higher level donors would be paying a lot just to hold their place, and get very little else - no tailgating, different seat location, 6 game season if we are lucky.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Yeah but the lower level donors are the ones who

Have issues getting bowl Tix and such.

But yeah if you give big money, it's a wash.

If you're lower level donor and you don't do this, then that's not smart.

I’m just amazed by how many points some of ya’ll have. I’ve managed to scrape and claw my way to 70 priority points over the course of 10 years so this 100 point gift is a no brainer for me.

Re: I guess a lot of folks decided on the refund.....


Aug 20, 2020, 12:35 PM

Never thought about asking for a refund, donation is a donation. But those 100 points help make sure that newbie future donors that dump $$$ trying to get better seating won't succeed, as those of us who have been donating in Champion to Jervy range for years will be safe for a few years.
