Comment (by fblaser):

 Thanks for the comment @dd32.

 I agree that this wouldn't solve the entire problem and that clear
 expectations of the speakers. However, it would have helped in the two
 real-world cases that we had:

 If the user tries to get 2 tickets using the coupon and sees that the
 second one is not free, then he's made aware of the rule by the system. A
 honest user will simply pay for the second ticket. It would take a few
 extra steps (both mentally and physically) to try to game the system and
 register twice using the same coupon code.

 In the current situation, if the user tries to get 2 or more tickets using
 the coupon, the system allows him to get both of them for free without a
 warning, which makes it looks like it's ok.

 So I do believe that adding a limitation would be helpful, although I
 agree that this is not a high priority item. (Another solution is for the
 organiser to use a different coupon code for each speaker.)
