WhiteTim Posted November 26, 2012 Posted November 26, 2012 How do you estimate this, guessing? Considering he works for greenday.com and idiotclub.com his guesses are pretty good
The Forgotten Posted November 26, 2012 Posted November 26, 2012 lookin like tomorrow or Wednesday Is it gonna be a giveaway of some kind of contest?
Alan86 Posted November 26, 2012 Posted November 26, 2012 The US and the UK only?? That's complete bollox. Not really surprised because the idiot club has always been a terrible fan club. There had been some slight improvement in the last few months but this kind of ruins that. The fact that it costs the same price for fans outside the US is a disgrace really.
Jack Posted November 27, 2012 Posted November 27, 2012 The Idiot Club's Twitter replied to someone and said that the contest was taking longer because they were "preparing rules for our friends outside the US" as well. So there!
Ritz Posted November 27, 2012 Posted November 27, 2012 The Idiot Club's Twitter replied to someone and said that the contest was taking longer because they were "preparing rules for our friends outside the US" as well. So there! Its US and UK only. Brian from GD.com revealed that day.
GuitarPunk94 Posted November 27, 2012 Posted November 27, 2012 uk us only? well, i guess they just dont want me to use my 1-year-IC-membership i got with the ultimate bundle..guess ill still have to wait for sth rly exclusive (early-entry for shows for the next tour...ah right..there still is no real tour yet..) >.<
Annie, get your gun Posted November 27, 2012 Posted November 27, 2012 The Idiot Club's Twitter replied to someone and said that the contest was taking longer because they were "preparing rules for our friends outside the US" as well. So there! ("outside the US" perhaps means UK) but there's still hope!
Rusty Blue Posted November 28, 2012 Posted November 28, 2012 This is really disappointing cause it's not fair for the ones who live outside the US (or UK but almost every contest is for the US only). They should warn us before we pay our precious money for something that doesn't worth it for the non-residents of the US. Now I know that I won't renew my membership.
Red Lights Flash Posted November 28, 2012 Posted November 28, 2012 ("outside the US" perhaps means UK) but there's still hope! They were "preparing rules for our friends outside the US". So that means that the rest of us are just not friends.
DoubleTen95 Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 i give up on waiting for these damn picks!
Todd Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 i give up on waiting for these damn picks! You don't have to wait. They'll come around eventually.
Rianne Posted December 16, 2012 Posted December 16, 2012 Are these ever going to be relesed I doubt it. It's taking forever...
Tim_13 Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 green day has a very special definition of ''soon''
J&TheNight Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Man, I feel bad for those outside of the US/UK, but people really don't realize how much more expensive and complicated anything is when it becomes international. Contests for shows and big merch is costly enough, but to bring in someone from say the East? Yea fucking forget it, that's just insanely costly and leaves the company much more liable. I'm more than a bit exasperated by those "well only USA again lame" comments. I do agree that making this 3-4 month old pick contest US only is stupid, but jesus you all, stop bitching about it! I think us USA fans got pretty fucked over by more than half of our tour being totally demolished from this fiasco, so I think you'll be okay if you miss these silly promotions that are, very often, for really small things like picks or a shirt, maybe a CD. Anyways, I'm pretty fed up with the Idiot Club. GDA keeps me updated quicker, more efficiently, and more interestingly for free. I really doubt I'll be extending my free membership, and I don't encourage anyone else to either. If it wasn't free, it'd be a huge waste of time. green day has a very special definition of ''soon'' Them: "you know, soon" Me: "Like 2 weeks soon?" Them: "yea, 2 weeks. Or 6 months. Soon. Maybe next year." Me: "You don't seem too confident in that statement."
LudeBoy Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 i don't get why they didn't just use the picks as a renewal package. seems like the logical thing to do. i have 3 postcard packs and i don't want another t-shirt.

At least you have something! I never got a shirt nor a postcard pack nor anything else
lizziebix Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Nearly 3.5 months later and we're still waiting. Crazy.
Rianne Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 I asked them about the picks too. Me: Will those guitar picks be given away this year, or are we going to have to wait till 2014? Them: hmmm.. Do you want to wait until 2014?? Me: absolutely not! But I assume it's still on, and it's happening soon? And they didn't reply after that. They never even answered my question either. I'm kinda done with the IC. I got the membership for free with the Ultimate Box Set, and I don't think I'll renew it.
Todd Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 I'm not sure if I'll renew. The postcards or t shirts or whateve would be nice, but worth $20? Idk... Getting my tickets early was fun, but Green Day doesn't come to upstate New York often. They've only came to Rochester like, twice I think.
mies Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 I asked them about the picks too. Me: Will those guitar picks be given away this year, or are we going to have to wait till 2014? Them: hmmm..
