@@MilkmanDan Well, Myung from Dream Theater plays on 6-string bass :P While I'm trying to avoid lower tunings, it will happen from time to time. Especially when one path is lower then the rest.
-
Here it goes:
I'm not a fan of SoaD, they can be ok sometimes, but nothing special for me.
Intermediate Rhythm - 87%, 51 streak
Intermediate Bass - 99.68%, 295 streak
MasterClass Bass - 88%, 98 streak
This is tricky bass line, I should try it with fingers.
I'm never tired of Metric. Sadly there is not much left, well maybe that's better for you :P
Last week selection went smooth, this time I tried few songs before getting the final lineup.

I have a little question for MasterClass competitors:
Would you be interested in playing very long song (about 20min)? Then, would you like to make it last for 2 weeks? 20 min is more or less twice as normal song, so I figured that you would need more time, to at least try to learn it properly. Answer below (you can wait until you post your scores).
Have a nice time :)

I don't want to be rude, but why I should be impressed? Nobody would spent time on this if he wouldn't be 5 years old. Well, at least I wouldn't :P
-
We're trying to check them (though mostly when it's new week time). So, no problem with. As we're talking about Song Selection List I remind you that we're making comments on songs that we think have either issues with them or are put in wrong class.

@@tdudley Yup, you'd moved to Intermediate, though Blondie song is tough, so I can understand that.
Many great scores this week, good.
-
Hi, I noticed "Alice Cooper - No More Mr. Nice Guy" in your "planned" list. Well it's on offcial RS2014 track list, so you should check that out :)
I'm happy that you're planning on doing Lay Down by Priestess. Will wait patiently :)
-
Leaderboard update.
I also remind you of Song Selection List. Add your choices, update your choices (as they were either chosen or have problems, making them not eligible for selection). It's ok, if you don't want to, but I will still encourage you to do it :)
-
Yes, warm-ups are tough as Battle Kid :)
How can he reach so far with his left hand? That's insane :D
That's a lot of cool stuff. Will serve as well :)
-
@@desertsong Wow, really nice score
and in Master Mode. You should probably check the intermediate song.@@warfang Yup, that shot is not eligible to put you on the leaderboard. Hope you'll be able to get better one in coming days :)
-
Nice scores out there. Competition heats up, good sign :)
Leaderboard update (I will mark only bigger updates).

Intermediate Lead - 85%, 59 streak
Well, another good day. I don't think I'll get close to 90%, but 87-88 should be possible.
I got better score on MasterClass bass, but worse %. I f*cked up the beginning, but later got really nice streak. Still, firekorn's score a little better :)

@@lordlk Whichever you want :) We're here to compete in fair environment, so it's up to you what class do you feel you are. If you choose wrong you will either level up or fall down :P
-
@@aclown More of us, the better we'll become. Nice to see you compete :) And nice score, try the higher classes :)
Regarding standing - I remeber loading screen at Guitar Hero 3, that said that you have to stand to rock. It probably hit my subconsciousness, changing me forever :D

Intermediate Lead - 83%, 36 streak
I didn't thought that I got so good score. I surpirsed myself, as this song is tough. Well, as soon as I RR that weird chord part, I should get above 85%.
MasterClass Bass - 97.98%, 227 streak
Today I RR'ed 1st section of the song. That was good playthrough, there were some wrong fret moments, but I'm getting to feel it better.

Some RR is needed. I never expected this song to be so difficult but it's nice tune and pleasure to play.
Intermediate Rhythm - 87%, 87 streak:

Lil improvement. There is one part that simply destroys me, have to practice it.
Intermediate Bass - 94.19%, 140 streak
I had better score but didn't took the screen. Frets on my bass are too wide at the start (at least I'm not used to them) which makes me miss a lot at the end (I have hard time reaching with my pinky to 5th fret when playing 2nd fret earlier). Have to practice that.
MasteClass Bass - 96.67%, 185 streak
I think that I'm gonna play it a lot. Fun bass line.

@@Rodman Well, I have no idea why it was gray (grey color indicates scores done by someone from higher class, so no eligible for winning that class at the end of the week), as you're in Beg Rhythm. Corrected. Thanks for pointing it out :) Btw, you've made some really nice imprrovements. Keep on rockin!

Wow, some really nice scores. It's sunday and we already have some 100% :D
@@NoonyDeloony Awesome! (think about this crazy Awesome done by RS2014 lector :) ) Nice video, it's always great to see some legendary performances :) It's worthy of some hand clapping indeed :)
Leaderboard update.
@@MaZtoR Cause you're in Intermediate in both Lead and Rhythm I put your scores there (don't worry, your scores at the end of the week will be better :) ), as well as your 80+ results. Practice makes us better.

I thought that this will be worse. Pretty satisfied with first run.
If I missed anything - let me know :)

Show must go on. This words from Queen's classic fits perfectly to the start of new Rocksmith Championship week. As you all know, @@Joey, the long time RC Organizer, stepped down from his role last week. For long time he was here, to give us this wonderfull oportunity to participate in championship. But that's hard work. Still he was doing all he could, combining that with work and family. But time, time is running away fast and @@Joey realized that. He no longer could sacrifice his personal life, not to this degree. He withdraw, but didn't left. He still will be part of this community and will be always welcome to post. Not only his scores but also warm words. As we all remember he was here to cheer and praise, taking pride from seeing us become better and better every week. I'm proud to write this words and to thank @@Joey for us all.
@@Joey thank you :)I'm a little nervous as you all are in most cases older than me, better guitarists and overall more experience people. Nonetheless I want to give you as good Championship as ever, so here we go.

It would be better if I didn't made mistake and put finger on 8th fret instead of 6th.

@@Dennis430 Nice scores you got there :) Now you rank 2nd in all 3 categories. Well done.
Check out Song Selection List as it's getting close to selecting songs for next week. One of the reasons I started to participate in Championship was to share my music taste around. Fortunately for me I was able to discover bands I never heard of, and most likely would never consider listening to (like Metric, which is not my genre as a Metallica fan).
All of you - great scores and we still have one more day :)

@@aclown You shouldn't take Leaderboard as place where your current class is named. I'm simply duplicating last week sheet and erasing all scores. Your current class is displayed in Championship Class Lists, so check it for current standings.
