Yo, Didd - that seems to be an philosophical issue. While the ones here prefer to stay in the lower class and make it sound perfect the others get the most advance in their journey being faced with songs slightly above their abilities. I consider myself in-between as i try to play my int class and whenever i have time the adv, too. However this and last weeks int songs are not on the easier int side.... If you wish to return to beg lead just start playing beginner class again, and as your score last week and now are <=79% you are gonna be downleveled next week. @@Mortalo @ @ - what do you think about simplifying the downleveling like that: one score <=79% (or no score) plus a "please level me down" post I do not remember anyone being downleveled in the last year (!) and it would make CCL list servicing easier. Hey @@Rodman, It's a difficult one. Based on previous scores, I seem to be sitting in that higher end beginner (difficulty 3) and lower end intermediate (diffculty 4). There is the odd beginner song that I find really hard, and the odd intermediate song that I find easy. I'm happy to work hard at a song, but there comes a point, generally for me with the difficulty 5's and 6's when the song is more than a bit above my level and the practice becomes counter productive because I'm not getting any improvement or success. In reality, if next weeks song is a 4 difficulty I'm likely to be able to post a score, but you can't set the difficulty of a class around one person. I actually think my issue is speed, and I need to work at it. I really struggled with Simple Plan - Jetlag, just due to the inability (even after learning the fast part) to keep up. Maybe I'm ok on a slower intermediate and struggle on a fast beginner. Whilst I've been battling for a while to get into intermediate and I'm frustrated that I'm likely to be downleveled, I wouldn't change the rules. Maybe the reality is that I'm not ready for intermediate yet, but at the same time, sometimes the beginner class is too easy.
