no auto-upleveling last week (edit Rodman)

 

 

Rock on!

some more scores,

 

1 bass improvement,

 

 

and my 6 String attempts

 

(must do better)

 

 

happy with this

 

and haven't even tried the others yet .... loads of home work this week,

 

night night all

@@2groggy - Goddamit, Grog - Just shaved off my playoff beard yd (my girl finished a real real big exam after one year of learning for it)...

Time for a mo for the good cause? well maybe.

 

Actually, that's perfect timing.  Movember rules state that you have to start clean shaven.  But being a FreeBird, I say "do what you want".

 

BTW, How could I miss Frank Zappa from the list? Especially since he was taken down far too early by cancer.

Easing back into Championship life with what I thought was beginner lead, but now I see has been switched to intermediate:

 

 

Have to say I thought this was easier than Bad Girlfriend.

 

 

Movember Thread Hijack Post # 1

 

In honour of the late Lemmy's mo

 

The world's simplest version of the world's simplest song = Louie Louie by Motorhead = 100% in Master Mode

I think 100% is possible, but those bends get tricky.

 

 

 

I just shaved my beard for Halloween so I could be Jack Black in School of Rock. I've already started it back. So in the interests of Movember, I turned the clock back for Boston. Brad Delp had an epic stache.

 

 

A special mustached rocker Cs could be an idea for movember :rolleyes: 

 

Anyway, went with my favorite Queen song ( was hesitating with some Motorhead ).

 

 

Also, felt like trying to play the Stones on guitar.

 

hi guys ;)

 

 

Adv Lead:

 

 

Still can't nail the beginner tune :)

 

Well good news, I know where I want my hands to go.  Bad news can't get them to land there fast enough.  At least I've got a 10% improvement so far this week.  Aiming for 80% at this point for this week, but heck I've got two more days, we'll see where it goes.

 

--Wren

And yes I'm practicing the rhythm stuff too. 10% jump, still don't like playing rhythm. Great song though, so I can deal with this one.

Biweekly reminder that several MC players all get together in my Twitch channel to hang out, talk about anime/video games, and share top-secret music knowledge with each other. Come hang out with me on the internet sometime!  :lol:  twitch.tv/runGamut

 

EDIT: Fun night! I should be back at an earlier hour tomorrow. Sorry about shoving my video in here before, I just meant to link it. ~_~

I did this last night before realising I'd already done it the night before:

After all, there's no point in me chasing scores, unless I change my settings.

 

And then did this:

But I've been doing other things tonight:

(waiting for the encore...)

Hi there

I had fun playing this, good french stuff...

IMPOSTER ^^^^^  There is only one Groggy!  ;) 

Well nearly 90%.  I'll try some more on it tomorrow, even slowed down to speed one I can't seem to catch on to that solo part.

Orga Request

 

 

...well, we have pushed the rules and class differentiation in the CS to a very high level over the last years so that it serves solid fitting competition for everyone every week. The bottomside of that is that is is really a lot of effort (esp. time) running on that level. As you might have noticed we are having a hard time bringing the submitted scores to the leaderboards, and that´s why this post is being written:

 

WE NEED YOU - Searching for volunteers to update the leaderboards!!!!

 

All it takes is a little time (and a google mail account ;) )

 

If you are interested please p.m. me or another orga and we set you up.

 

We really wanna keep the CS running the way we all have it now, and if there is no help me might have to cancel some classes, so please join in!

 

Rock.

Rod.

lb updated.

Master Class Bass 100% | 1,960,166

 

Guess I'll take the 9% jump this week on the rhythm part.

--Wren

very hard work for me this week,

 

Ca Me Vexe was a 'no show' for me due to this........

 

all a little bit weird,

 

the Gary Moore Bass was going ok and i planned for a definite 100% until i tried this........

 

 

no matter what I tried I always got a miss on this.......

 

so my best scores this week could have been a lot better.

 

 

loved the Stones, but found it quite hard.

 

 

 

 

 

Idid a little better without the RED X but forgot a screenie

 

looks like thats it for me for this week, thanks again for another great song selection and for the organisers for making it all possible,

 

cheers

@@Telboy I'm really curious to know if you did any modification (CFSM repair or repack in the toolkit) to ça me vexe to show up like this as there's no way this would have happen with my original CDLC file.
