279 out of 275 stars. Uh...what?

[ludist210]

I'm playing on the Wii version, just in case this is an isolated issue.

So I'm going back through Story to five-star all of the songs that my wife and I missed. I'm not playing anything new, just stuff that we've done. Well, my star total is 279...but by my math, I've only achieved 275 stars. I've double-checked the venues, and it's only 275.

Where on earth could I be missing stars?

do you both play on expert?

if so then some 5 starred songs were maybe gold and it counts as 6 stars

Gold stars don't count as 6 stars in Rock Band. They never have. That's only in the last couple of Guitar Hero games.

No they don't, I've actually gotten some.

Regardless of whether they do or not, I've played a few songs on expert, but not gold-starred them (the rest of the people playing with me have not played on expert).

Either way, I have 279 stars. I've only been able to achieve 275 to this point. This isn't a deal-breaker, but it's annoying.

You're annoyed because the game is registering that you have four stars extra?

It's a bug. I had a couple of 4 star sets one day, then went back the next to fix them. Despite 5 starring them, the game never altered my total star number, and I'll always be 3 stars short.

As far as I know there's no fix, other than maybe starting a new band and never getting less than five stars...?
