Tried the beginner song Lead and in my opinion it should be a good challenge for beginners. It has a lot of power chords and a small solo which is not that difficult and just takes some practice to learn. I expect to see some high scores for it. 

Now for my first try

and for Lead MC this song is so nice but the appreggio portion drives me nuts as I can't seem to tell whats going on lol. I will try and get a better score.

Ok I will change the intermediate.. As for the MC song No one is updating their song selections so I am going to choose a different one as well. 

New Intermediate is 

Scorpions - Coast to Coast

And new MC is 

Iron Maiden - Wasting Love

You are correct there sir so after looking at the scores again it seems that no one was eligible either so I will use the scores to determine the winner. That makes @@BRUTAL the winner in beginner. 

Posting this now as I will not be here in time to post it later.

And a video to match the score

I tried with first finger on G12 and shifting but moving from G12 to B11 and then up to G10 was a pain in the ass for me and made it harder for me to hit E13. I guess its a preference thing but I have been stretching my fingers for years so all i needed was to learn the pattern correctly and it just fit. 

I will check this out and hopefully it will help me learn. I had tried before to learn to make customs but the process was just too time consuming and a bit confusing as well. Thank you for your video. 

I use my middle finger on G12 and my ring finger for E13 and I leave my Index finger on B11 and just shift it to G10 when I need to. Seems to me to be a lot easier using this positioning as everything is easily accessible. 

it is a really nice song and it isn't that difficult to play once you get used to the pattern since its pretty much the same thing the whole song. The difficult part is if your fingers aren't used to the stretch required to hit the notes on B15. If anything this song will help people with their stretching lol. The easiest way to do that stretch is with your pinky so for those who don't like to use their pinky's this song will be tough.

Great scores everyone

Glad you guys are enjoying the songs. This is the reason I love the competitions as it gives us a wealth of music to learn that normally we would never even listen to and a lot that we have never heard of. Many of the bands and songs that have been chosen for these competitions I have never heard of just like the Amorphis song for this week. I find it awesome when I try the song for the first time and actually end up enjoying it a great deal. Sure there are going to be weeks where we may not like a particular song but I still try to play them as its always a great idea to branch out of your comfort zone every once in a while. This is why i try to stress everyone to put up songs on the song selection list so that everyone has a chance at getting a song they like picked and it gives us a tremendous amount of variety to play. 

Ugh someone screwed it up.... I will fix it.

Welcome back @@Smile and in great form. Great score man and great video. 

You may post whatever screenshot you like. Unless there was a huge change in the custom the version shouldn't matter. 

First score for INT I actually like this song and I know I can do better than this score but my fingers aren't agreeing with me right now.

Lead MC this song is not as easy as it looks.

Great scores everyone really great job from everyone this week. Please start updating your song selections for next week. 

Welcome to the championships for your first entry you are allowed to choose what class you want to start in, after that we take care of the rest. Whatever you feel comfortable with is what you should choose. 

Welcome to the championships Please read the rules posted on the first page and the rules which are pinned. Your scores are not valid as they do not follow the posting guidelines. Your screen shots must show a % accuracy and streak in order to be valid. Also al difficulty levels must be maxed as well. You are allowed to play the song as much as you want each week and may post as many updates as your like.

You may use either learn a song which shows your accuracy or a score attack submission which is more accurate.

As an aside I want to apologize for not adding more songs to this list on a regular basis as it is extremely time consuming and I just don't have enough time for it. I do ask that people keep posting here with the songs that they think should be in what difficulty and I will add it to the list as I have time. Thank you to all who have contributed to this list.
