Why do you guys think that Skrillex would play during daylight?
I think this for a few reasons. Per tradition, I expect his superjam to be placed late night (and I kind of doubt they will give him two late night slots). Also, I think (and hope) they will want to mix it up a bit after giving him a late night which stage just two years ago. Lastly, I would not expect him to spend more than one day on the farm, so a daytime regular set followed by LN superjam would allow some time for a brief rest and prep for the superjam.
I think the two most likely scenarios are for Skrillex's regular set to be 5p on the What or closing the Which around 7:30 or 8p

Skrilly's tour poster lists him as being at Bonnaroo Friday and Saturday, so I expect him to play his own set one night and the Superjam the other.

It's depressing seeing that he won't be bringing Dillon Francis and DJ Snake with him. Things could have gotten out of control rather quickly if he would bring them as well.

I would agree, but I'm not ready to completely rule them out yet. If Bonnaroo can give us a surprise appearance from D'Angelo, I'm sure they could do one of those guys.

Nice find - I wouldn't be surprised if some of his tour-mates show up at the superjam even though the poster indicates otherwise. I read something recently that suggested that I may like DJ Snake - I'll have to check him out now.
GET THIS MAN A JOB IN THE SCHEDULING DEPARTMENT. This would be a best case scenario for minimal conflicts.
One of the things that gives me anxiety... out of some of my favorite acts: Vampire Weekend, Phoenix, Arctic Monkeys, Neutral Milk Hotel, Flaming Lips, Skrillex, Damon Albarn... I'm pretty sure these will mostly all be the acts who fill up the preheadline slots on which and what. And pitting some of these guys against eachother is going to make me really really sad.
The only thing I notice is that I would imagine Kaskade being a part of that Superjam in some capacity if they had it the same night he was there so them playing at the same time I would think they'd avoid. And Skrillex will be there 2 nights so one of those would be moved. But overall I 2nd the notion. This is a pretty fantastic schedule you put together here. (If you switched Disclosure and Zedd I would be eternally happy although I'd skip Zedd for Chromeo late night in a heart beat)

This doesn't completely mean it will be two days. Last year R. Kelly had Sunday listed as his date. He was ln Saturday. Which is technically Sunday. Maybe Friday during the day, pre-kanye and then ln.

This isn't 100% relevant but I see Gov Ball on that poster and Skrilly isn't listed on the lineup... did I just miss something or...?
Here is my first mock, (with disclaimers attached) I've never been to Roo before, so purely guessing how big the tents are
I've not bothered to amend the set times, I know disclosure won't play for 2 hours but doing so seems pointless so early on.
As my location suggests, I'm from the UK so had to use inforoo/the line up counts on the official site to gauge how popular bands are, some I'll have got waaay out.
I know some things appear WTF. But looking at the last 2 schedules some things do look a bit iffy. Tame Impala were only be 2nd HL in The Other Tent? and I'm assuming ASAP Rocky would be much more popular than previous Other Tent HLers that weekend. LN looked light in 2012 compared to 2013
The four boxes in red I've added to make bands fit, this makes LN look very heavy going, but I'm speculating that will be the direction Roo moves in.
Thursday looks a little stacked, I know this but it seems similar to last year?
I honestly think this is the best the schedule could be for me. I would have something I want to see at almost all times, I get exausted looking at it. Great job with this!

Yea that looks great to me too. I would just want them to flip Die Antwoord and Umphrey's so Umph can go all night.
Oh and disco2000, you have the Wood Brothers on both Friday and Saturday. It's no big deal but if you go back and keep messing with it then I thought you should know.

James Blake is popular but I think he will close out a tent on thurs, Friday and sat are pretty packed as it is, and with Frank Ocean getting a LN, I think it makes it tough to cram James Blake in a tent on Friday or Saturday. I also think that either cut copy or Chromeo will get a LN slot, not both of them though, because of how crammed the LN sets already will be. I think Phoenix, Arctic Monkeys, and Vampire Weekend will be separate days, but the only one I see as pre headliner is VW. I think Phoenix will get that 7:30-9:00 slot on which right against Lionel Richie, so plan accordingly. I think the mystery Superjam will be in the daytime on which ever day doesn't have the Skrillex Superjam, because I don't think they'll have two super jams in the same day. I think the doom scheduling conflicts will be from 7-9 before the main headliner, because there's so many acts that fit that description such as:Damon Albarn, Chromeo, Cut Copy, Warpaint, Lauryn Hill, Naked and the Famous, Chrvches, geez the list goes on. I think Roo will do their best to create a fair schedule, but I really think that 7-9 slot is headache central, so get ready to run from stage to stage. I don't think LN will be as tough as the past.
Here's my mock. I'm both proud and disappointed: proud because I actually did the damn thing, and disappointed because even with divine scheduling powers, there's no way I could make a realistic conflict-free schedule. Picking shows is going to be a harrowing experience this year.
Feel free to critique this; a lot of the bands I'm not familiar with just got filled in my leftover spots, and I left a few lower-tier acts off just because I didn't feel like respacing things.

Sorry, I was just editing it when I realized I needed to change a few things. Should be good now!
I usually dont really give it any mind if I disagree with something in a mock, after all its a mock and its a matter of opinion but a couple of these decisions are baffling. Why would Broken Bells who are #26 on the lineup and #4 one day at Coachella be early in a tent behind someone six lines below them and with only an hour 15 minute set? Why would Nick Cave who is 12th on the lineup play a short set before Break Science who are pracitcally at the bottom of the lineup? edit: I dont want this to come off as rude or anything, just geniuinely curious about it particularly the nick cave>break science scenario
Emoney serves more of a purpose than any of you, especially Nate, whose incessant, garbled ramblings are so mindless and pointless that I get depressed just seeing them.

Haha it's not rude, I expected responses like this because I'm not too familiar with the lineup (though obviously I should have double-checked the placement). I mistook Break Science for Broken Bells. Fixed it now though. Also, I wasn't paying much attention to set length; I was looking at the overall layout/conflicts more than anything.
Also, I fully admit that I was selfish and tried to make this as conflict-free for me personally as possible, while still retaining some semblance of realism. I originally had Nick Cave on the What. Feel free to switch Nick Cave with Damon Albarn.

Don't think Cloud Nothings and Deafheaven will conflict, 2 guitar-based bands that have similar fanbases even if the genre is different. I like that you took into consideration the world music tent on Friday, what's the point of these mocks if we're not working towards a realistic schedule? That said, Meshuggah won't play after Mastodon. I think Ty Segall will play a tent. How likely is The Glitch Mob at noon? Not sure about Pusha T on the What Stage. Kaskade conflict with Lauryn Hill/Die Antwoord sucks, but you have DA listed twice. I LOVE the idea of Ice Cube as the Sunday Which closer, I usually relax and reflect at the What closer so to end the festival with something high energy would be great.

Good job.
Thanks, my Thursday was pretty much just me entering in the bands I had left over from the other days; I've never heard of Cloud Nothings lol. And I noticed the Meshuggah/Mastodon thing and just fixed it. I think Pusha could hold down a midday what set, but I think I'm gonna switch him with The Head and the Heart on Which. Didn't notice the DA thing though; good catch.
