Sorry, nothing special for week 520, but when you think about it, it'll only be full 520 weeks once this one ends. So don't loose hope. Also, the year is a bit longer than 52 weeks...
Other notes:
1. No rng this time to save some time.
2. 2 da capo songs from previous weeks - the selection list is seriously lacking in beginner song. If you know an easy and fun to play song please submit.
3. All diff ratings done by me, even on the reused tracks - I didn't like the original ones. Feel free to voice your opinion if you disagree with them.
4. Apologies to all bass players - I know there's 3 songs with very similar difficulty level. I was too tired redo the whole tracklist, and since it 'technically fits', here we are. In compensation I vow that the next time I'll do the selection starting on the bass path, so for once the lead players will get the shorter stick.

EDIT: Almost forgot, @ direct3r you have no class assigned in lead and rhythm, where do you wanna be?  int?

I don't understand. We have over 10 suggested songs for beginners in the selection list (it was much worse in the past). I don't know what's wrong with them that you didn't use any of them.

Looks like I was looking at the wrong list, my bad. I was tired.

Hello, thanks for another week of championship!

I'm wondering with the lead song from this week: anybody that have problems with registering the notes in the harmonic section? Especially the 15th fret on the B string, I've tried slowing it down and trying different places, and it has never registered. Several other harmonics don't register on the song as well, even though it "sounds right" to me. Any tips appreciated

(I now see I forgot to screenshot score lol)

Hi! I always have the same problem. Even if I play the harmonics pretty loud it wont register, eventhough it does in the harmonics arcade game. So I kind of gave up and just play them as normal notes in the same fret, which it does register. Sorry for the BAD advice!!!
