You've got questions, we've got answers.
This is a thread to ask questions regarding the Music Mayhem community event. A member of the Community & Events Team will be sure to answer! |

1: I was wondering if there could be made available a list of the people who've signed up, perhaps broken down by country and/or timezone? This would allow us to connect with other local members interested in the achievements for extra out-of-mayhem sessions or as potential fill-ins if people don't show up.
2: Regarding the difficulty levels assigned, it would have been nice to allow mid-range ones. For example, I can pass with flying colours almost every song on Hard Guitar, and most Expert songs don't trouble me, but I didn't rate myself as an Expert player on Guitar because I do struggle with some songs, and I wouldn't expect high scores on the harder songs anyway. If I had the option to pick "Hard/Expert" that would cover my skill level more accurately than "Hard". Many of the achievements require "Expert" level but the actual songs aren't too difficult, meaning that I'd be more than capable in those sessions. |

Okay. I see two problems going on, one that might work out and one that definitely won't both that regard Beatles RB
1. Why are we putting three people in sessions that have the unison bonus, as well as the 8x multiplier? Unless you have somebody Voxtaring, they won't be able to get the 8x multiplier
AND
2. You can't have three vocalists playing online at the same time. It's impossible (from what I've been told). So any sessions for Sensational Singers aren't going to work with three people.
That is all. |
How much for the whole kitten kaboodle? |

| Yup RB harmonies are strictly local only unless one person is doing the 3 harmonies on their console in an xbl game but then it'd still only count for them |

That is all.Good to know Typhoon. It's important to get this feedback so we can update our info. In regards to 1 - If an achievement is attainable while also going for the others, it's considered "linkable", and is auto-added to the achievement list. With 2 - I'll pass it along in our thread so it can be changed. |
Pardon me, do you have any Grey Poupon? |

That is all.This achievement was one we weren't SURE about before the event as it can be earned online and in a band, we just didn't know if two different people could earn it or if it HAD to be on the same console. Thanks to the awesome community here for clarifying this and the achievement was removed from the list this morning. |

| Question: why is feedback disabled on the Music Mayhem sessions? I had a three player session which myself and one other turned up to, but the third, while online, didn't respond to messages and was playing Skyrim. I would have liked to leave negative feedback in this situation, because that was pretty rude. |

| The decision was made that all community sessions are to be created equal, therefore feedback will not be instated. |

| That explanation doesn't make any sense to me. "Created equal" in what way? That they all don't have feedback enabled? |

There are actually quite a few reasons why Community Gaming Sessions don't have feedback. Spilner hit the nail on the head with one of them...It just seems wrong that you could receive negative feedback for a session you were placed in by us, instead of joined. We make errors, the site makes errors, and we don't want that to negatively affect someone from participating or enjoying the event.
Also, like Hoffman mentioned, ALL community gaming sessions, the ones the Community Events Team creates, will not allow for feedback. This is a blanket rule that we will hold for any and all events. |

| Are there more Music Mayhem sessions planned to be created? They came fast and furious in the first two weeks but seem to have dried up going into next week. Those of us who couldn't reliably make themselves available early in the month are feeling a little left out. I have been slotted into one session, and somewhere along the line one of our foursome left the session (though there is no mention of it in the session thread, he just sort of vanished). |

| We are continuing the mayhem of session creation. The issues with these Ddos attacks has really slowed things down as staying onsite has been a bit harder. We will continue working chronologically through the end of the month. |

| What's the quickest way to edit my registration details to remove the achievements I've earned during Music Mayhem? I've been placed in a few sessions where the achievements are the same and I'd like to uncheck them in my registration. When I go to the achievement list in my registration, I already have the box checked that says "Do not show achievements I already have" (not verbatim). However, the achievements I've earned are still there. Do I need to uncheck all the achievements, refresh the screen, then start over? Is that the easiest and quickest way? Thanks! |

Yes, you'll need to uncheck the boxes next to the achievements you don't want to be placed in. If you already have the achievement, but just want to help others get it, feel free to leave the box checked.  |
