It happens. We were lucky to get tickets this year, and it was only allowing 1 per login - but a few of my team got them.
The thing is, I can understand the organisers not wanting to grow it bigger, and even if they had more rooms/more sessions - that would require more management, and the risk that 100% of the people try to rush one session that is full. The other issue is whether it would ruin the feel of the conference if it were to grow too big and unmanageable... and I get that view... It does say something though that each session sold out within the minute though and longtime attendees didn't even get a chance.
