Hey all-any idea where the Six lottery tickets usually end up being located?

They are usually either full view seats in the front row or partial view seats on the far sides of the orchestra and box seats. About 1/3 of the lottery tickets are front row (the front row is always and exclusively lottery). Occasionally the box office will make other seats lottery seats when the show isn’t selling well (one of my friends was in row M in the centre with the lottery and another friend was in row D centre), but usually it’s front row or partial view sides or boxes.

Mine was far left, I want to say row F? Perfectly fine for this show since it’s really just a staged concert. There were a few very very brief moments upstage center that I missed, but it didn’t really impact my enjoyment.
How hard of a win is this? Tried entering whilst in the city this weekend but lost.
Alas, hoping for this summer/fall.

This show is extremely hard to win! I've been trying since October and have only won once! This was during a huge blizzard on Jan 29th! If that puts it into perspective a little.

I won in October after trying for just a week and the tickets were front row center (my wife went instead of me because we have a small child and rarely get to leave the house at the same time).
I've been entering pretty much every day since so I can see it too, and still have not won again.

It may be easier to win on a Monday or Tuesday rather than a weekend - two out of the three times I won were Monday/Tuesday.

The winning email states that tickets will be emailed 1 hour before the show. Is that time accurate? Do you remember how far in advance you got your ticket before showtime? Thanks.

It can vary - usually the tickets will arrive about an hour before the show, but one time I received mine closer to half an hour before the show, and one of my friends didn’t receive hers at all and had to pick them up from the box office. Another friend got her tickets about three hours before the show. If you don’t receive them via email, they’ll let you pick them up from the box office and it’s a very easy process.
Any current experiences with the Six lottery? Wondering if seats are still front row?
Also interested in TKTS tickets - is it possible to get really close orchestra seats?
