Yeah, it's sometimes a timezone issue of course, so if it shows 1 day ignore it.
2 days, there's an issue. :)
 
Hey guys, I just wanted to come in and say hi to see how you all are doing. I have a friend who wants to join and I can vouch that he is a frequent grinder. His name is jmstone29. Whenever there is an opening, I told him to post a message in here to get him on the waiting list as well as HOOD. :)
 
Hello everyone. I'd like to get on the waiting list if possible. I've tried to get frequent grinding going with the giant "B-Spec Remote Race Friends" but what seems to always happen is I'll add 10 people and maybe 2 of them will actually race. I can grind M-F for about 8hrs a day from work and I use the widget as well. Some of the people on the member list I grind now already - my PSN is jmstone29. Please add me when you have a chance. Thanks!
 
Got a problem today - I've started grinding and come back to check an hour or so later, and i'm staring at a black screen. Quit the game and there's 3 rapid beeps and still black screen - eject the disk and it's back in XMB reload and everything was fine then the same events looped again.

any ideas?

Dunno, my PS3 shutdown by itself today, never happened before, started it again and it's running fine now.

Don't know if it made any beeps before as I wasn't at home.

You can't get it to run races now? Clear the cache in GT5 and try again.

@kremmen64
The first thing to try would be to clean the disk.

@frason
I believe PS3 will shut down by itself if it overheats. With the insane grind you have been on the last few days I'm not surprised.

Hmm.. It's been on since the release of GT5 in November so maybe it needed some rest. :D
 

Good to see you coming back! :)

I got a few non-club members running as well, most of us do, it's all ok. :)

Glad to see you onboard again.
Adding you to the waiting list is done.

I never deleted you hood :3 Glad to see you back thouuuugh.

Thanks guys, I have a few months left in me at least and now the goal is 140 Million. I can't properly reciprocate some of you because it's becoming too overwhelming plus you guys are always busy. So now I'm actually worrying more from not being in the club. If I'm back in the club I just have to race a large pool of people rather than having to pay back each grinder individually. Skyle was like one of my first B-Spec friends If I'm running the grinder I should be supporting his club. I was just stressed out from the hangups when I left, I'm a lot better when everything is smooth. Plus my MLB the show league fizzled out so I have cleared the room on the friends list.

I point a fan at mine. It makes it feel cool to the touch, internally IDK, but it's become a mental thing with me now. I once had one of those snap-on exaust fans but they are 🤬 I would never go that route again. Out of curiosity are you running a fat or slim?

I'm running a 80GB (now 500GB) fat, actually it's his 3rd birthday today (just checked).

Maybe that's why he shutdown, to celebrate, happy birthday fatty! :D :dunce: :cheers:
 
Running the widget all day today since I am locked up in my law school building with finals. Would have ran it last night but my GF decided to have a bunch of friends over for a Harry Potter blu-ray marathon in preparation for the new movie coming out Thursday. :rolleyes:

^ I can vouch for jmstone29. He was racing my drivers so much that I thought he was in the club (a few weeks ago), only to realize he wasn't on the list when I went to reorganize it when a few people started dropping out.

running the widget until about 3pm tomorrow now guys, I'm running on 'Random' though for a while, I just wasn't getting the numbers using reciprocate. I'll switch it back tomorrow.
 
Right I'm still having the same problem despite all the above advice - disk clean obviously, cleared cache whick took an eternity, and finally reinstalled the data through the option in game.

all worked well for 3 races then it just hung again once the track loading bar reached the end - tried a different track and it did the same second time.

It doesn't matter whether it's widget or manual race setup, 1 in 3 times it will just hang as the track loads so we will just have to see how tomorrow goes.

This sounds serious like going into ylod territory. Slim or phat? Try another game or run folding@home to see if it hangs up too.
 
Welcoming the guys on waiting list! 👍 👍

👍👍

jmstone29, please add everyone in the club to your PSN friends if you haven't done so already. :)
I guess HOODFIELD got most of us already but add the new ones. 👍

Put a fan blowing at the PS3 and see if it behaves better.
I got the same problem some days.
