I just looked into my local post office and realized how fucked i am. Because im so rural, they send mail to a city an hour away to be postmarked and sent out.
I think my best bet is to send out tonight in hopes that the mail will be picked up from the community mail box tomorrow night and be postmarked in said city early in the morning.
Fuck.

Even on most holidays/weekends, USPS still has the large yellow mail trucks delivering mail to other post offices around the country.

You really should take some time to decorate the envelope as nice as you can. Plain envelopes get chosen last if at all and will really lower your chances of getting the tickets you want. You'll end up receiving your SASE back with your MO's in it.

Nah brah that's not how it works. Tickets are chosen over postmarked times not over cool artwork.

also my problem as well.
just went out and got my 6 money orders. 286.50x3 & 60x3
hoping for GA Pit obviously, but barring that, they can use my $286.50x3 and send me the $79.50-tier tickets for each night and the $60 MOs back in my SASE

Im actually thinking of just shooting for Reserved ticekts now. I feel everyone is shooting for pits which will already be a hard ticket to score.
Not sure yet.

I know plenty of people that score through GDTSTOO and have never had problems getting tickets with envelopes with no art on them.

It's possible for sure, even likely. All I'm saying is colored envelopes could get picked first so if you're going for a limited section like the pit or have trouble getting to the po on time decorating could help. How would they be able to sort a giant mailbag full of thousands of envelopes by post mark time? That's impossible. They grab out of the bag first come first serve obviously grabbing the attractively colored ones that people put effort into first.

I'm sending in an envelope requesting 4 pit tics per show and my girlfriend is sending an envelope requesting 4 pit tics per show in order to maximize the chances that we get at least 2 pit tics for us for all 3 shows. There will be no problem getting rid of the extras so it's a no brainer to go all in.
