Whether it's your first Bonnaroo or you’re a music festival veteran, we welcome you to Inforoo.
Here you'll find info about artists, rumors, camping tips, and the infamous Roo Clues. Have a look around then create an account and join in the fun. See you at Bonnaroo!!
Well, it took me damn near two hours because of how slow the website is on mobile, but I'm all caught up!
Just a heads up for anyone else who hadn't done shit since the Roo clues started, the first 3 orders expire tomorrow. Then every day after that 3 more expire so you may want to get on it.

Well, I guess Christmas Eve Eve may have been end of that.
I also started thinking about if they make tickets higher price this year (in line with the price hike) or if they will stay the same.
I really don't think they will because the amount of points required isn't connected to any kind of money, so they don't benefit directly from raising the amount of points like they do from raising the cost of tickets. You could make the argument that raising the point cost could lower the amount of street team tickets requested but a) in the grand scheme of things, they don't give out that many street team tickets and b) if you're going to amass 16k points for a ticket, you are not going to let an additional thousand or so stop you because even if they raise the cost, it's not going to be by some huge amount.
Edit: for an example of the monetary disconnect, passes to a $45 show at the Tennessee are 2500 points. Passes to a $15 show at the Bijou are 2500 points. It never changes.

Thanks to passing conversations with some of you at festivals, especially custeph, I signed up last night and did all of the available orders. Thanks for the encouragement. Looking forward to trying to earn a ticket!
I've found the Fancorps app to be slightly less frustratin' than their website.
And I'm pretty sure the Team Leader answered us on their awesomely terrible forum about raisin' the points fer a ticket. While they haven't decided on the points needed yet, the Team Leader said that they don't foresee raisin' the points necessary.
Also after I handbill on NYE I'll have enough (probably) fer my ticket!
Website AND app seem ridiculously slow. If only I could get postering in my area, I'd have it locked up. I'd poster for Roo, Big Ears, AND the other one. That's all it would take to lock me in. Whatever. I'll do the random posts and get squared for 2016.
Are there any ways to get points other than accepting orders. I'm new at this, and so far the only orders that I've seen have been online postings.
The orders with bigger points are poster runs and handbilling, and you just have to keep an eye out for when those become available. Especially with Bonnaroo, you can lobby for additional poster routes if one isn't available near you, but that may or may not work.
dysonsphere, you're a good example. You might be able to talk them into postering for Bonnaroo if you do Madison (college town) and/or Milwaukee (larger town).

I guess my 19 year old brother will be making a vine for me..
Anybody having problems getting on the site today?
It was really slow when I did the Forecastle Clue orders earlier, but it went through eventually.
So I use the app for almost every order I do and I completed the three forecastle orders today in about 5 minutes start to finish. It's really easy once you get the hang of it.

Taken from the instructions for the announcement tomorrow......what does this mean?

Anyone who signed up in the store for BLAM should be getting an email yesterday or today informing us of our BLAM order. Tonight you'll have to complete the order between 6pm and 9pm while BLAM is going on! That's the reason for the time stamp comment.
Anyone get their email yet? I haven't and unchecked the website too and no order yet for me.

I haven't received the email or the order. But, they pushed the deadline to pick up an order til Today at 12EST. So, i'm not expecting the order til later and the email probably won't come til right before BLAM starts, right?

Yeah, I'm thinking the emails will be sent out at 5:59 or something like that.
They can't have any of the lineup leaking early, you know.
