UPS would only email you if you had already registered with them for notification and provided your tracking number.

Hey is it possible to remove the pad from velcro to clean it?

I don't want to break it.

and how about during ddr you sweat and water goes between the cracks?

does it really matter? o.O

just thinking if you can clean deep into the pad between cracks

Thanks.

I think I will be even happier than geeeuknitt and kirbyrocks when they will receive their pad. At least they will stop to spam the forum and cf mail and phone about when their pad will come. Guys please just be patient and stop whining every hour about your pad status.

I mind if you would cry if the UPS employee eat 5 min longer on lunch time. Your pad would come 5 min later ... Damn, call UPS, CF, government, United nations and post in forum to tell us about that injustice !!!

I think they frick up... I received another set of trackings for two pads from UPS (and by the way UPS can send an initial email with trackings if asked for by the sender) ... the thing is I already got my pads.

I emailed them thursday evening to give them a chance to cancel the package (it was only registered at that timme by UPS)
but as of today its in transit...

thing is I live in Canada so I do pay quite a lot of brokerage fees etc....

two options, I refuse the pads or I pay the brokerage fee and I resell the two pads...

This actually does explain something, and that's why you received your doubles pads so early.

It's in transit? Well, if I remember correctly you ordered your kit on July 12th, so this is the time you would be receiving it anyway. I think they goofed up and sent you someone else's order early on.

Just a thought. Maybe not, though.

Alderaic where do you exactly live ? I am in Montreal. If you are not so distant, I could pick up one of your pads. I would pay the exact same price you paid. I would cancel my CF command on the site.

Yeah, they accidentally sent you two extra pads, looks like they screwed up with us too. CF had said long ago that payment was received. My mom looked online, and the credit card wasn't charged.

EDIT: I've removed the arcade mod's center panels because I hated them. It's easier for me to play with a level surface like my old pad had. I've been playing stuff, but I'm getting Goods and Almosts which appear to becoming from my left or down arrow. And sometimes it looks like holding my down arrow makes the left one rapid fire, though I don't see this in menus, so I'm a bit confused. Alot of people say the pad just needs to be broken is. Is this problem with Goods and Almosts going to go away? I'm not entirely sure if it has to do with the left triggering randomly. But it's definitely doing something. Alot of times it triggers shortly after I step on it. I think I might need to send it in. I tried adjusting and loosening the screws. It made it trigger a little less, but it still does. I'm pretty sure it's not my playing, as I can beat Xuxa with relative ease on my other pad.

My dad checked his credit card balance; they definitely removed it for my CF already. That's really weird, Agent. I hope you figure out the problem.

As for your pad's issues... did it happen before you removed the arcade mod? If not, then it may have to do with accidentally hitting one of the corner buttons, causing arrows to ghost. If that's not the case, then it's one of three things.

1. It's got a problem and needs to be shipped back for analysis and repair.
2. The pad just needs to be broken in, as you said.
3. Your feet are not adjusted to playing on the CF yet.

Those are really the only three things that could be going on.

Well, no, I only removed the mod from the center panel. I couldn't remove it from the corners because the panels were glued down and there aren't any panels under there, just the sheet metal. I didn't want to leave it bare. If I had gotten a clear and smooth mod I would have been able to just remove them all. And I had problems with it before I took the mod off.

I don't think I would be hitting the corner panels because I wasn't used to the CF. My feet don't even come close to the corner panels when I play anyway. It never happened on my Blade, so I don't think it would be happening on this mat. Bare in mind that the corner panels with the arcade mod require very forceful presses to activate.

BTW, one of the things I forgot to mention is that on the control box the select button is on the right side and the start button is on the left. This is unusual from other mat's control box design and pisses me off because it makes me make mistakes constantly.

Man, that is a confusing situation. You should probably shoot an email to CF. I'd say "clean it", but you just got it... so it shouldn't be in need of it already. Was it doing this when you received it at all? Or did it just start up recently?

As for the Cbox, thanks for the tipoff. That's strange... you'd think they'd go with the normal design that even softpads do and put Start on the right.

Agent 24: Do you have the corner buttons disabled during gameplay (Dance Play Settings set to off)? It's surprisingly easy to trigger the corner buttons during gameplay on a CF, with or without an arcade mod, and you're pretty much guaranteed to get Goods and Almosts if you don't disable the corner buttons (especially if you play flatfooted).

Also, you'd probably get used to the center panel if you left it on. When I first got my CFs, I sucked. But I kept playing and it wasn't long before I was used to the arcade mod.
