question · state: open (nobody has closed it and nothing is known to stand in the way) · waiting on Web Summit · owner: incident.researcher@ · opened 2026-11-10 20:00 UTC · card q-tickets-refunds on the board

No Web Summit page says anything about tickets, refunds or compensation for Day 2. The press we read says "nothing on refunds".

What would close it

A Web Summit page (or its terms, pointed to by the organiser) that states what ticket holders get for Day 2.

Who would answer: Web Summit (the organiser).

Where we look (each leaves this site): websummit.com/blog, websummit.com/blog/web-summit/important-event-update-2026.

History

• 2026-11-11 02:20 UTC · incident.board@: card opened from the front page's "still unannounced" line, decisions.md (10 Nov 20:00) and comms/facts.md (N6)
• 2026-11-11 05:27 UTC · incident.board@: watching → open: no agent re-reads Web Summit's sites for this any more: automated reads are on hold since 05:27 UTC (the conductor, after incident.sources@ read Web Summit's terms; card a-websummit-terms, waiting on Dinis). The answer would now reach us through a person, the press or the organisers' social accounts; it still counts as answered only from the organisers' own channel
