Frank what the hell? Where's your sense of responsibility?

Knowing our luck it'll be Coldplay or Taylor Swift themed challenge that none of us have except Frank

Just going though my songs...that is a LOT.

These kind of weeks where someone selects songs is usually pretty good. One week a player picked something like 3/4 of the 2,000 odd songs available

strawberry floating hell. White Denim

Good news is that song has a top score for vocals - it's an ok tune but very boring to sing.

I won't really have any time to add scores/xp until Monday.

I can't really put much time in either so I wouldn't worry about it. May as well take a Rock Band holiday all of us. I have all the spotlight songs though, so I'll put scores in for every spot that might be missing. That's the easiest way to jump up the table. XP I think we will probably need something like 100k which is about twice what we usually put in so we won't be going any higher unless we can get more active members

Also, for anyone interested, PDP have another batch of USB legacy adapters going up at 9PST (about 6pm for the UK, I think).

Gonna try and nab one with a US forwarding address! This can only end well

Have you considered using Looking for Group, or maybe making a GR Rock Band club for randomers to join? I don't really know how that all works.

I have no idea either I think Cora posted on the official forums and Reddit/neogaf. I invited a bunch of random people without a crew on the top of the leadersboards but no success there either

Good luck! I have one but tempted to get a second just in case this one I have breaks in the future. Although I still haven't used it yet

Great, the site won't accept my only card. strawberry floating imbeciles

That's the reason I can't really. I think it's accepted but Halifax charge huge fees for different currencies

They don't take PayPal? What kind of shitshow are pdp running over there

[Frank]

Yeah, no Paypal. Total strawberry floating amateur hour.

Have you got an American post box thing? Want me to try order two (that's the max per order), we can split the cost 50/50 and it'll work out cheaper than the ones on eBay that sell for £100+

[Frank]

Yeah, I've got the American Viabox thing set up, but I can't put a UK billing address in, so it's obviously noticing a mismatch between the Billing Address on my card and what I've had to put the billing address in as (the viabox address), so it won't let the payment go through.

If you can grab two and your details are working then that'd be amazing

I'm trying to message them at the moment but I doubt they'll respond before they've all sold out because they're obviously totally imcompetent

Yeh I was just reading about that and it looks like I'd have the same problem.

People on the rock band forums say use your us forwarding address as a billing address. Will that let you order your adapter? Give that a try

Looking at it these look quite cheap. I think it cost me about £35 inc shipping to get mine from Amazon

1) Go to www.myus.com today and create an account - the free version will be fine for the purpose of importing the adaptors.

2) This will give you a US address where the adaptors can be sent to - basically a warehouse in the US which will ship the adaptors on to you but you'll pay for shipping and import duty if it applies.

3) Create a PDP account today to ease the process of buying the adaptors when they become available.

4) When the adaptors are available to buy just use the myus address for your credit card address and shipping address (this worked for me, but other people's experience may differ).

5) When the adaptors arrive at myus then arrange shipping to you via whatever service and speed you prefer.

6) Enjoy your adaptor.

That's the address it's trying to use and it gives me the error. It's another classic Rock Band Frank fiasco

Let's be real, these incidents aren't just isolated to you and Rock Band

Check my previous post, I quoted a RB post and they used a different forwarding company (and this ones free)

[Frank]

Just get the same thing. Shambles. Just work with a company that do international shipping, ffs. Stop doing such a half-arsed job with everything

Thanks for trying, though, BID0!
