@WinterSnowblind: @NTM: Sorry, but it can't be removed everywhere...

Hmm I actually did it two days ago by accident when I was adding things to the download queue. It just said auto-renew was on, so I went to the billing info section and turned it off. I think you click 'my account' on the top left, then when it shows your credit card and xbox live info, click change and I think you can turn it off from there.

@NTM: Wow, really? Must only be open for very specific locations then.

Where are you from? If your from the US then do as the others have said and use the option on Xbox.com, however if like myself your not then your only option is to call them.

It was a surprisingly annoyance-free experience when I did it, so it shouldn't be 'that' bad.

Bring back the Gamespot classics!

For my first kit, I forked out and got a Yahama set but as you said you just want to get a feel for it at first and stick to a low budget.

I'm from the UK so not sure what's exactly available where you are and what it would cost but I'd look into Mapex or Pearl, both produce some great kits and offer good budget starter sets for someone like yourself.

The Pearl Forum series isn't too costly and is arguably one of the best series for entry level drum kits. On the Mapex side, the Tornado II is a great little starter kit, however it may be limited to the UK I'm not sure.

As for this Westbury kit your looking at, my first thought would be to avoid it. I've heard a lot of criticism aimed at Westbury kits, Westbury don't actually manufacture kits over here in the UK but through word-of-mouth people seem to think very low of them. I don't know what $225 typically gets you, but I'd look elsewhere.

Asking about stuff in this thread is a great start though and I recommend that at the very least you spend some extra time doing research before dropping the cash on something. Feel free to contact me if you have any more questions :)

@OtakuGamer: Microphones/Headsets are preferred but are certainly not required, though you'll be playing with a friendly bunch so I recommend you make use of it if you have one.

As for time zones, myself and Atomasist are currently working on a system that will hopefully allow players from multiple time zones to get in on the action. I'm from the UK myself so I'm trying to represent GMT and GMT+ (Europe) time zones in our planning discussions so you don't have anything to worry about there :)

Thanks for the great questions, I'll add the above information to our game night thread here.

@AlisterCat: We are in the midst of setting up a game night event, if your available on the day it takes place you wouldn't actually need to add a bunch of people we'd just send an game invite out to you.

However to do that you would at least need to add Giantbomb Gears , it would also make it easier to see when your online. Thanks.
