Ryan Center In-Game Experience - Issues and Upgrades

[ElmCityRhody]

I can trouble shoot it

it goes a little like this

CUT CUE BAIT

problem solved

[Taylor Swift]

They should have a table at the entrance and they troubleshoot your cue app for you so it will work.

Cue only synchs when the intro song it synchs to is on. A troubleshoot at the entrance wouldn’t work.

Other than that it’s some kind of test environment that I’ve gotten to work at my home. I have only gotten it to work twice this entire season at a game. I am MacGyver when it comes to these things. It’s not user error, at least for me and most posting about it here since I know a lot of them personally who have said it doesn’t work.

Whomever signed the contract for this needs a refund from CUE.

CUT CUE BAIT 2020-2021!

[Rhody15]

Before getting things like WiFi, replays, and beer in seats, how about we go back to basics and tweet out a picture with the correct ranking of Dayton / less blurry. Holy hell this is embarrassing.

You also have to realize it was a marketing intern for the Ryan Center, not Rhody Athletics who would have tweeted that older graphic. How about being productive and tweeting at them to make them realize their mistake? I can do it if you want!

[ElmCityRhody]

bummer- i saw there was a new post here and i was about to say

CUT CUE BAIT

guess i will have to wait

[Taylor Swift]

No more CUE ever again, please.

[NYGFan_Section208]

What's a CUE?

[Taylor Swift]

What's a CUE?

Something we can now all forget

[phipsiGD'11]

I forgot to mention that I got a new phone because I broke my old one and cue app worked for St Louis! Idk what I did but I was one of the maybe 50 people it worked for.

If people keep talking about it like that, the less likely they are to Cut Cue....

Funny, but sad story from the concession stand. Bought a popcorn for $4.25 and handed the young lady a $10. She started by putting the $10 in the drawer and taking out a $5, four singles, and 4 quarters. She then put one quarter back in the drawer and handed me $9.75 change. I said you made an error and she started to take the $5 back. I gave her the four singles and put .75c in the tip jar. She stared at me with a dazed look, and I said "you're all set". I don't remember having that much trouble in 3rd grade and that was over 65 years ago. No wonder the lines take so long.

[Blue Man]

That’s a nice way to say “even our film room has to be multipurpose so it’s not exclusive to team use”

[rambone 78]

Our practice facility is a long way from reality, so it will have to do lol.

[Rhodymob05]

Is there any public fundraising that will happen for the practice facility?

[rhodysurf]

That’s a nice way to say “even our film room has to be multipurpose so it’s not exclusive to team use”

I get what youre saying but cmon. Is there really a need for the film room and press room to be separate? They are never likely to be in use at the same time.

Of course not. Just another one of those "things" when you're recruiting. Players just don't have their own "space" at URI - minus the front part of the locker room. They share everything else - training rooms, media room, workout facility, and practice court - with other teams, student athletes, etc.

The teams we are competing with for talent - both in our conference and in the region (PC, BC, UMass, UConn, Dayton, VCU, Davidson, Richmond, St Louis, George Mason, Duquesne) all have those facilities to recruit with.

The Ryan Center goes wasted without the other investments around it.

[Rhodymob05]

Whats Thorrs Contract looking like these days?

[adam914]

Yeah I had to laugh when I saw that tweet the other night. Its only nice because we can't give the players their own space like every other real program in the country. I almost posted about it then, but had enough embarrassment for the night already.

You're right that in the grand scheme of things this isn't the end of the world and by itself is a small issue, but the problem for me is that its a small piece of a larger puzzle that shows we are not investing enough in our program.

Yes. Since if we had a practice facility the film room would be there.

Mullins Center Saturday Night

• Wi-Fi worked perfectly all night. Fast, no issues.

• Cell phone reception no issues at all

• 3 live video boards To watch the game from

• Replays shown frequently on all 3 video displays

• Even potentially controversial calls were replayed. Replays were very frequent

• Video scoreboards did NOT block out game statistics at any time with advertisements

Beer?

Yes. Beer. And you can bring the beer to your seats.

Mullins Center is on Campus just like the Ryan Center
Public University.

We are really ass backwards with our fan experience. Plus the Mullins Center is nowhere near as nice of a facility as the Ryan Center.

No CUE

And you don’t have to buy your beer behind a curtain either.

You just buy the beer. You then take the beer to your seat. And they even have cup holders in your seats to hold your beer or other drink.

You just but it. Take to your seat. And they even have cup holders in your seats to hold your beer or bottle.

I took the bus trip last year (couldn’t make it this year). Was such an enjoyable day.

I specifically bought a drink and took it back to my seat just because I could. I also really liked the cup holder accoutrement.

I get so damn claustrophobic in the Rhody Pub. I like the downstairs one better, and we have the lovely Mrs. Cox to thank for that upgrade. If it wasn’t for her we wouldn’t have it.

[Billyboy78]

Also, every word coming from the PA guy was crystal clear. It could have been because it was comparably quiet in there compared to the RC, but I think it's just a much better sound system.

[ramster]

It is a much better sound system

[Taylor Swift]

You can’t hear the sound system at ALL from the 100s, but can from the 200s. That sound proofing padding below the main scoreboard “helped” but didn’t solve.

[PeterRamTime]

Anyway we could change the color of our seats????


I think its embarrassing to have Royal Blue seats.

Whyyyyy???

When they built the place, who the hell decided to paint the original court that bland royal or whatever blue and make the seats that color??

After Dayton blew us out a poster on their forum said something about revealing our "Royal Blue seats"

Meade bleachers and seats are "royal blue" too.

Oh yeah that's right!

Like how did we rationalize doing that?

Was it an accident?

More incentive to fill the seats to hide the color blunder.

My personal opinion is that the seats would look better black.

I can't say that given that we don't have working WiFi that changing the seat colors would even make a list of things they would do, but watch them do that before the WiFi.

[Rhodyram]

The seats match the jerseys that were given to the season ticket holders.

I think the seats should be Navy blue.

Black would do, but I think it may be too dark.

Thought the season ticket holders got navy blue jerseys?

......I think the darker shades of blue have been part of the Rhody color scheme for a long, long time.....

On that note, where did the yellow in the uniform come from back in the 80’s?

Yellow was part of our color scheme at least since the mid-70s.

I have a bit of insomnia tonight and this thread hasn't gotten much love. Anyone else think we will be able to complain about the RC? My current take is the goal would be 25-50% capacity, but I'lll take that for a win.

I sincerely wish we were complaining about the damn WiFi and concession lines.

I would not expect any fans this season. There is just too much risk. The teams want to complete the season. Any risk of a potential interruption will be avoided.

[RF1]

Fans in the Ryan Center? Will there even be games there? Many conferences are discussing having league games at secure bubble sites. Could be very few games played on college campuses.

I wouldn’t be surprised and, as a season ticket holder above a certain age, I wouldn’t mind that much as long as the games are on TV.

I did like the idea of live streaming all games for season ticket holders, though.

Why can't the Ryan Center become a secure bubble? Unless teams are living at Mohegan, I don't see a difference. Right?

[ramster]

It can

[Rhody83]

Why can't the Ryan Center become a secure bubble? Unless teams are living at Mohegan, I don't see a difference. Right?

The teams are staying at Mohegan hotel. Each team gets a floor. They will have a separate conf room for all their meals. The teams are escorted from their floor to their locker room to ensure they don’t come in contact with the public.
