We’ve done more than enough. If we don’t get to Bloodstone it’s Frank’s and Bido’s fault.

I'll keep playing till I drop tonight tbh. We may still make it, but the spotlight tracks are really hurting us.

I’ll do a few hours of LP and XP while I wait

I had a long weekend off from work, and have spent most of today on the game trying to push us over the top. We are 3% off, so maybe a last push will get us over...

I tried to do what I could with the spotlights but there wasn’t much I could add there. I could probably spend another few hours and scrape another 30K-50K but it looks like we need something like another 100K there to even jump up a few positions :(

I’m surprised the LP and XP positions haven’t been enough to get us in to that too 10% of teams

You and buff did amazing this week!! I’ve never seen our team put those kind of numbers in since Rivals started

Are you sure about that? Current leaderboard reckons 39k would bump us up by 2%, which might actually help!

Of course it is almost 1am and we're definitely strawberry floated. :lol:

Hmmm when I looked the spotlight table we needed about 90K just to go up 6-7 placements

39k knocks it up from 71st to 66th as it stands.

And there's a strawberry floatin' Rllmuk branded team sitting right above us in the leaderboards! CURSE THEM! :lol:

OK, gonna finally admit defeat on this one. We put in a strawberry floating shift lads, and were it not for the fact that there were only five of us, we might've made it. Perhaps if we get a few additional recruits from somewhere, season 21 might be our season!

Yeh that promotion zone is just a wee bit too small I really wish they'd increase it to 15% or 20% which would still require a lot of grind

They haven't adjusted the zone percentages since a chunk of people became inactive and then the heavy players consolidated in to fewer teams, meaning there are less teams in each league and less teams get promoted

It's a real jump in difficulty on that last promotion

There's a subreddit for Rock Band Rivals somewhere for people looking for teams. I'll try and find what that reddit is and we could use 2 drummers and a few guitarists I think

I’m still absolutely buzzing - strawberry float stats, we absolutely nailed it this season. I was going to join a couple of Facebook Rock Band groups to see if there are any people needing a band, maybe in our time zone might help.

I’ve got 2 people interested on Facebook. A guy using Pro Drums and another guitarist. How do I invite them?

Nice! Exactly the skillsets we could use

You can give them the crew name so they can search and join. Or if you're in the game or phone app you can invite people to crew through the crew roster section from memory

I can’t find the option anywhere in the app (which is bloody awful, crash-o-rama). I’ll try and sort it in-game.

They're from reddit, they are going to be going for XP/LP

Did you have any luck with the drummer and guitarist from facebook? We have 1 space left but could free up more

That’s good, means we can concentrate on spotlight and stuff.
