Wow, in a weird way I'm glad to hear this... the ticketing thing to me is totally bogus. Can't even eat there as a solo diner anymore. Messrs. Achatz and Kokonas will not be getting any more of my money.
As I said in an earlier post, the value for money thing is highly subjective. I understand how some might think it's not worth spending the cash. For what it's worth, though, I spent WAY more money at both Alinea and The French Laundry than I did at Shoto. Not sure the comparison is entirely apt.
