This week closes soon (~30 mins I guess?), get your scores in.

I haven't played bass for awhile.





PAIN

I also tried GoB, but that only resulted in cramps half way through.

Sorry for not announcing last week's winners. Many scores are missing in the leaderboard due to some recognition errors, and I don't have the energy to enter it all right now. If someone could do it that would be great, if not I will do it tomorrow.
We have a lot of fun to play songs this week, plus a GoG and GoB challenge, so have a good week!

I entered all the scores by hand, the leaderboard should be up to date now.

I don't keep the game running while not playing, but during longer sessions I sometimes Alt+Tab to a youtube video for a break.

I'm always in the tenacious d gig simulator. Close enough, right?

Not my kind of chart. I prefer when the difficulty level is mostly 'level' throughout the track. That's why I play rhythm mostly.
Not saying it's a bad pick or something, it's just not for me.

I'm glad you got better!!!

And better enough to play drinking! Cheers!

Cheers mate! Let's make the next 10 yrs better than the previous!

I was dealing with health issues last week and almost missed it. Luckily I'm better now and can finally celebrate the 10yrs properly, so here's some VERY drunk sight-reads:

Looks like the rhythm part has more solo play than the lead. Or maybe I was just more drunkerer. Hard to say.

Anyway, here's to the next 10 years of the championship! <raises glass>

I commented yesterday that it wasn't a hard bass week, but I checked the difficulty ratings carefully and I would still add +1 to the difficulty rating to every song except the masterclass song. Bass paths are often underrated because most of the championship participants are at the high-intermediate or adv/master level. But when someone is at a more beginner or slightly intermediate level, like @ Minute2Midnight , it is not so easy to achieve a very high score.

So:
The Chumbawamba song is easy and repetitive but quite uncomfortable to play (repetitive jumps over many frets). I would give it a 3.
The Culture Club song is a 4, but due to the difficult beginning of the synthesized bass I would give it a 4.5.
The Gravestone song has some fast riffs, although not very technically difficult, so I would give it a 5.

I didn't even play any bass parts this week, but I'm gonna voice my opinion anyway. Just because I think that 'clogging up the thread' makes a better experience for everyone.

@ Mikson If you say the song is a 3 then it's a 3. I trust your ratings more than my own. But have you ever encountered a bass chart that you'd rate a 1?
