Da Rules

(Credit to the Ubi Forums for some Ideas!):

1. Anyone may join the contest as long as he's a forum member.

2. You can play "Score Attack" On Hard or "Learn a Song" with all sections mastered (all purple): You may also play a song which does not have DD on Score Attack easy if you cannot get through it on hard as all the notes will still show up on easy but it won't X you out as easily.

3. There are three classes: Beginner, Intermediate and Masterclass. If you enter to the contest the first time, you choose your class.

3.2 You are then leveled automatically as follows: 3x =>90% (3 weeks in a row) or 1x 98% qualifies you for the next class. If you score <=79% on a level two weeks in a row you are leveled down one class. You may choose to follow this rule or not we are very laid back on this rule as some songs are either easier or harder so if a given song in a class is too difficult for you please feel free to enter by playing the song you feel comfortable with.

4. Both instruments are leveled separately.

5. You may only enter in one class per arrangement. (Bass, Rhythm, lead) but you may participate in all available arrangements

6. One Song is chosen for all Instruments and classes

7. Every Saturday new songs are chosen. From all participants of a class, one is chosen at random by Kaijin, Krazyone or Richomat.

8. Every member should put the song he/she would choose in the Song Selection List

9. Only 1 song per class will be selected and only custom DLC's with at least 1 arrangement for guitar and 1 arrangement for bass are allowed. Also Originally included DLC may be selected as well. NO OFFICIALLY RELEASE DLC is supported at this time. . 

10. You only need to change the song in the list if you are selected. If not, you can keep the same choice, or choose another, it's up to each one of you.

11. On Saturday, if your name is picked and you didn't entered any song in the Song Selection List, another member will be chosen.

12. Starting with the publication of the songs, you may enter your score.

13. The scores are entered in the corresponding google doc: Leaderboard Kaijin, Krazyone, richomat and afterdark take care of entering the scores.

14. You must post a screenshot with your score showing the Accuracy %.

15. Ranking is done by percentage first, then by Longest Streak.

16. If you play LAS (Learn a Song), you percentage will be always, xx.00%, if you prefer SA (Score Attack), your percentage will always be xx.xx%.

17. You may choose any song for your class as long as it's provided on the forums and has at least 1 arrangement for each instrument.

18. Every song is up for discussion until Sunday around 23:00 UTC. If you think a song is to hard, please let us know in the thread, so we may discuss it.

19. After Sunday 23:00 the songs are set and are not allowed to change.

20. The contest closes the next Saturday around 18:00 UTC

21. The winners are announced in the OP of the corresponding week's thread.

22. Rules may change without notice. So watch out.

Only today i got some time to play this week

 

This is what i got, for now

 

Hadn't been able to play most of the week, but I gave this a couple runs last night. Might give the intermediate song a try for fun

Nope.. My game is no longer recognising the first notes (bends) in Uprising..

That's me stuffed then.. Before today there wasn't a problem for some reason..  :(

@@Hostilian My too , damn bends 90% fail. A lot time in RR and nothing. I can`t beat my score today. 

Was there an update or something @??Didn't notice one.... Oh well.

 

I'm not even trying the song as I can't hit the first notes for some reason. Really frustrating!  :(

My perform for this week. Shauruga intermediate lead guitar. 75% accuracy 43 streak. A little bit difficult to me. Last week i didn't participate because i was performing a wrong song (Jester race of Inflames). I have to make sure what song is finally choosed (on sunday i think). Greetings.

@@Hostilian it seems your score 78% not correct ( i not sure) , not all on full level difficult.

Update RS i dont see, hardly. 

Yes hard song, fast strings skipping in solo it is hell, and damn bends :)

 

 

p.s I wiil make video my playthrough Uprising  on Sunday, we will laugh with terrible my play. :)

queen song is difficult as well but I thought I would post a score for it. Not going to get anywhere near the top but at least i tried.

@@Hostilian when playing that first bend try and start it earlier. I have tried it and it works for me.

@. It was on full difficulty but might have dropped it. I thought it came up with mastery though? Someone had one with a solid line. I didn't know there was a non-DD version???

Oh my latest metallica score wasnt updated on leaderboards though.

 

The bends on Muse I've nailed pretty much from the start. No problem with them at all - until today. No idea why.

@@Hostilian sorry didn't notice your edit in your post, I have updated the leaderboard again and fixed your score. Thanks for the heads up. 

 

On a side note please start adding the songs you would like to play to the song selection list for next weeks songs. 

Last update for the week.  My arms are tired and I've just had so many goes trying to improve by fractions of a percent.  I don't think I can do any better than this.

 

I have updated the leaderboard again and fixed your score. Thanks for the heads up. 

 

On a side note please start adding the songs you would like to play to the song selection list for next weeks songs. 

 

Oh yeah, I already did ! :) Got 3 of my songs, hope at least one gets picked sometimes ;)

 

Anyway about leaderboards, im very confused, my name is red and it says 'joey diaz' and im like whaaaa? :D :D

probably some mistake :P

That is my name I must have you selected on the leaderboard.

Maybe I try the lead part too, but that needs more practice.

Its done fot this week.

Great song.

 

and i want it all, but just got 92%

 

@@Hostilian My too , damn bends 90% fail. A lot time in RR and nothing. I can`t beat my score today. 

I have a lot of trouble with bends too. I think it's more to do with the way the game reads them than anything else.

I think this week the intermediate song is definitely more fun on bass than the masterclass. Is there any particular reason there aren't separate tracks for each instrument? Just curious if it would be more logistically difficult than it seems.

Anyone got a non-DD version of Uprising please?I've got about an hour to spare then no time to myself until tomorrow evening!  :)

You can remove DD with the toolkit. But if you dont know how. Here is my file.

Thanks man.. Was just looking at the toolkit. This will save me some time, thanks!
Though I will learn when I get a minute!  :)

 

edit.. Thanks to @@MaZtoR for the non-dd version..

Fluffed the damn chords a bit but back up to 78% amd 51(wtf!!!) streak. Some of the bends weren't recognised.
