Hi Everyone,  

It's my first week, wish I'd known about this sooner.  Sorry for asking dumb questions, but I'm not clear on whether one is just supposed to post a screenshot or if the scores are supposed to be typed in somewhere.   Thanks, and looking forward to more!

Hi! Great you are here.

We have a fancy autodetection routine running that fetches the scores and brings them over to the Leaderboard!

So just post scores of all the classes you like and maybe tell us in what classes you will like to participate.

Rock!

Rod.

Yes, I saw this before but I forgot about it. Anyway, while I often agree with your ratings, sometimes, as in this case, I completely disagree and, as you can see, other participants rate it similarly to me. Yes it's fast, but the chart has rather basic chords for an intermediate level, but the speed takes it to an advanced level (6-6.5). A rating of 7-7.5 allows you to promotion to the master class, and I think this is not a chart that should allow for the masterclass rank. If I didn't have problems with recognition, I think 99% would be too easy to achieve here.

I'll try to play it again when I find time and see what I can achieve.

Yeah - i appreciate your ratings too. Usually yours tend to be .5 lower than mine but we are almost always on the same ship. Rhythm rating sometimes i feel is way harder than bass where we have it quite straight forward with speed, positionshifts, patterns and technotes and in lead where the solo or melodyparts often quickly give a strong pull towards a certain diff... For me in rhy the main diff element is (next to obviously difficulty of the chordchanges) can one make the rhythm sound like it´s played in the song. Here that riff at the beginning:

Clear MC stuff with the very very fast pattern switching from muted to open - i may suck extremely there, but for me even at that low speed in RR it sounds (recording too humiliating to post ) like a lame metal-riff which it clearly is not (and it´s even charted too easy and a bit wrong, it should consist of 2 different chords if am hearing that right). A (7) at least.
For promotion to MC - yeah - sometimes a chart is not optimal competitionwise - like in cases in lead where a very easy long song holds a very hard short solo that does make it a high rating - but here - those lil fills are also (7)s i tried again a few times - a 99 is there on the horizon, but doesn´t come easy

everyone - let´s work together on the most objective ratings on all songs continuously! Always give us your impression and a short statement if you like.

Rock!

However, the rating of 7.5 for this one is a misunderstanding. I don't know if anyone has tested this? This is 6, max 6.5, ok fast but there are no difficult chords or riffs. Unfortunately, Wednesday is too late to change songs in classes.

I did. See above:

"Darkness sy - hard to rate a bit... yes (6.5 - 7) is a valid rating also. From my POV the rhythm is damn fast and very hard to make sound right, i take that into account esp. in Rhy path - so i´d go (7.5) "

I'm so sorry.  I was a new participant and couldn't read English. Next time I will try the ADV class. thanks

Hah! No - man, don´t be sorry! All is good. Great that you are here!

You can send scores for ANY class every week!

You actually are competing in ADVANCED CLASS for LEAD and RHYTHM if that is ok for you.

Check the leaderboards here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1WN-m8wF0lVkQ4cLWHBa009SkqDoPk0xN-C4-llcrXXs/edit#gid=2109091018

Rock hard!!!

Start this week

I would give this 3.5 and I agree that this is suitable for beginners, but regardless of the player's level this is very difficult to get 99% here, unless someone has no problems recognizing bends and long slides.

It's worth adding that the alternative lead is the same chart, but with a capo on the 2nd fret and in E-Std tuning, so I think that the scores from this should count, because, for example, I prefer to put on a capo rather than tune guitar in F-Std. @ Rodman

 

Of course! Everytime we have to tune UP a capo is a valid and counting option no matter if there is an extra alternate/bonus chart or not.

For the rating... yeah 3-3.5, but as there is mainly only one riff i stuck to (3). Bend/Slide recognition issues are a true pain but don´t make the song by itself harder.

@ Rodman  The list of winners is a bit unusual. There are participants who won in two classes at the same time, this is probably due to the fact that these are new participants without an assigned class. This players should be assigned to specific classes because it gets messy.

Finally found time.

Winners list updated and Players put to their classes:

Congrats all winners and esp. @ Amisslamb44  to the instant uplevel to Adv with the 99+ win

If anyone wants to be put in another class just tell us!

damn hard
