Search for the account DanAndPhil and click on in - their profile/stream is their "room" :) Although at this point it's just darkness and a bunch of confused Phans chatting haha.
that worked, thank you! :thumb: it's loading for a while now

I was in a couple different rooms earlier with no problem but now I can't get into any. It just shows the person's profile pic and a loading circle that never actually loads. I really wanted this to work because I really wanted a dnp liveshow. Hopefully they figure it out soon and we get one today!

Lol I just got a notification saying they were live, and when I touched it, it popped up a screen saying they were no longer live. I'm not really sure why Rize would want to force test their product like this. It's pretty much the worst PR they could have.

TBH, even a few hundred is a LOT per room for the app. Average room size is probably between 5 and 10 on normal day.

well for one, the phandom would throw a fit over not being able to see it, and i've been watching a lot of old liveshows recently and one of the reasons they keep saying they used younow to begin with was that it didn't limit the number of people that could watch. with a fanbase this big, doing 'exclusive' live streams for just a few hundred people would definitely cause a lot of in-fighting.

Yeah but something is better than nothing and we all knew they'd crash it.

On the app for 25 minutes and it already drained 50% of my phone battery. The phone is burning hot even though I've been putting it on a cool damp towel for the last 15. This super sucks.

Phil just tweeted that they're having technical difficulties and might switch to YouNow. Since Rize won't work on my tablet (old af though) nor on my brand new phone, that way I'd actually get to see the stream, imagine that. :)

EDIT: As always, several people were faster than me.

I'm also in the room with nothing happening. I feel like we should democratically elect one person in the whole phandom to go in the room, record it and then upload it for the rest of us :lol:
