^ The ticket lottery should be much smoother now than it used to be.

According to a support staff at iFlyer that I dealt with during the TA tour, she said that Avex's process used to be like a cash-on-delivery model, where if you won, you paid when picking up the ticket and exchanging your receipt. Now, you have to pay through iFlyer, and if you don't, your ticket is released back into the pool for the next round lottery. In the past what had happened was a lot of people had won tickets, and then never claimed (and thus paid) for them. So the language in the lottery about not being eligible for future lotteries is just another lazy Avex example of not updating text, as opposed to still really being the situation.
