My ride fell through and I don't know if I get to party this weekend anymore! ;_; While I figure out a backup plan, here's some improvement: http://i.imgur.com/XTqIx9J.jpg http://i.imgur.com/pyRxaRb.jpg

Going out of town to party with some university friends! Played a few more of the week's songs on my stream today, here's a couple 94s for the road: http://i.imgur.com/4HyVRJS.jpg http://i.imgur.com/XeyqTcV.jpg

Feels quiet in MC lead... let's SHAKE IT UP! *learns the song* http://i.imgur.com/hM4CybU.jpg This is lighter fare as far as MC goes, I got this. :godmode:

http://i.imgur.com/7ZWJcEq.jpg This song's got a lot of haters, but I really dig it. Only four riffs to learn, but rather draining. I think with some time in RR I can optimise my Energy Efficiency and get to high 90s, if I find some time. http://i.imgur.com/rgBlNLP.jpg I was sure this was 100%, but I guess it wasn't. :sob: Enjoying this song even more after having understood the lyrics.

Noooo! You can't do this this late in the week. I only have my E standard bass with me... :( Plus, I've actually learnt quite a bit of the Triple whatsit one. Ehhhhh... I do understand it sucks to get buckled down on a song only to not have that one be your class, but Hammer Smashed Face is totally harder than Legend Days, and <48 hrs isn't that late! I'll make up my mind on this tomorrow. In the meantime, some Triple Booking improvement: http://i.imgur.com/VnJpHoK.jpg I originally wanted to come back when I could manage 90, but I just keep scoring 85s.

Bass update! After some feedback and some scores, I think the difficulty on Hammer Smashed Face isn't quite as low as I thought. We're going to switch the Adv and the MC. Hammer Smashed Face is now the MC track, and Legend Days is now Advanced.

The Kelly Clarkson is just a joke! We're playing Rainbow this week. Sorry to any Kelly Clarkson lovers I might have got excited.

Rolled a very interesting set of songs this week! Besides Junge bass, all of these songs are very upper peg for each class. :open_mouth: Hope you're ready for a battle, everyone! :godmode: Here's an anime score to light it up: http://i.imgur.com/aIpzKBb.jpg The god of RNG favours earth2mars, and he gets two MC weeks in a row. I hadn't heard of this one either, but is it ever a blast to play on lead. Quick licks everywhere! http://i.imgur.com/LDHUQE4.jpg These melodies really complement the rhythm arpgeggios nicely.

About 30 min more for last scores, get them in if you've got them!

http://i.imgur.com/yzvLN00.jpg http://i.imgur.com/kZXMKlr.jpg Never heard. Nice song.

Couple sightreads to get going this week: http://i.imgur.com/PzQkCa9.jpg That was awfully easy for a Dream Theatre song, but still a pretty big challenge for our Int players. Good luck, young Petruccis! http://i.imgur.com/FhtfY07.jpg Master class? More like... anime class! :lol: Look at that thigh! Scandalous!! Ecchi!! :persevere:

http://i.imgur.com/IpkO4KG.jpg Choked at the end. ~____________~ Think that might be my last.

http://i.imgur.com/BFvONCG.jpg Can I get the last .5%?!

Been super busy this week, I'll post why later but in the meantime let's try to grind out a decent MC score. http://i.imgur.com/NEsRlXM.jpg Surprised how well I remember this for how long ago we played it!

More fun news! I've finally got a decent connection, so I started streaming Rocksmith on Twitch! :D I'll be streaming most every day in the afternoons/evenings EST, come and hang out with me~

http://i.imgur.com/9FKMZS6.jpg This song teeters the line between Int and Adv, but it's short enough that I think it's digestible by intermediate players. The start feels really hard... until you realise you only need two hand positions to play it. http://i.imgur.com/CC7NU9c.jpg This album was a mainstay when I was in high school and it's still pretty good now that I'm an old man. This one in particular is a great emo kid anthem. Really dark song. http://i.imgur.com/eE97prW.jpg I'm really surprised we haven't managed to play any Galneryus in this competition. One of the best power metal bands out there, full of virtuosos. I suck at this tune - my stamina's usually pretty gone by the last half of the song - but it's a blast anyway. :lol:

That's actually the bonus arrangement. The main arrangement is the lead melody, only on bass. :o

Scores closed for the week! Week 189 has begun!!

One more hour until new week!

http://i.imgur.com/L8H7dtj.jpg @@NoonyDeloony made this one look fun, so I tried it out. Was 100% for the first long stretch, but I forgot how insane the solo was and got totally assassinated by it. xD http://i.imgur.com/M8kCDUn.jpg This was almost 100% too, except I missed the open E, of all things! I was never super into any Chris Cornell band, but I appreciated his work. He had a great voice, and he deserved his success. It's a shame how mental illness can make even incredibly talented people undervalue their lives. :cry: RIP. http://i.imgur.com/rMKpdZF.jpg And an MC bump to finish it off!

You sure can! You compete in the class closest to your skill level, but feel free to post scores of all songs, regardless of whether they are your level or not.

It's due time, I think! Been here for years now, glad to be helping out. I hope to make selections a little easier by getting back to contributing quality customs, too!

Between that brutal cold that still won't let go of me and going to AnimeNorth this weekend, I've picked up a bit of rust on the axe. But I hear you can grind it off! http://i.imgur.com/cjYqJG1.jpg This song doesn't have many notes in it, and a bunch of them are solo, so it's pretty hard to score well on. :lol: http://i.imgur.com/1rHkTBJ.jpg Yeahhhhhh, definitely going to be RRing this. http://i.imgur.com/Bm3A6Ra.png Very easy for an MC pick, but those solo sections make it worthy. I don't say this often, but I love that quiet bit where you don't play anything. What a great buildup. http://i.imgur.com/kkBlJdU.jpg Love play on Gorillaz. Sang a bunch of this, too!
