All of it.

But the ticket process is what draws my ire the most.

Yeah. And next year will only be better. With onsite sales a thing of the past that means more tickets available, but...wah-wah...more people jamming/crashing the site and more overall bull****. I am amazed that, this late in the game, even though we were waitlisted and all, there are NO hotels available. So we are WAY WAY WAY offsite and will have to drive in and pay for parking every day. Fun Huh? You would think they would organize park'n'ride options for those not on the bus route, but where's the potential gouging in that?

Well as far as gouging goes, no onsite presale means no presale discount so next year everyone will pay full pop.

Anything else they claim about making the change for is pure BS.
