A couple notes here:

- "Save Your Tears" is technically a lead path in RS but is more of a rhythm part so for Championship purposes the lead path is considered rhythm

- "Deliverance" is not quite "God of" worthy in difficulty, at least on bass, but it's long (over 13 mins) and challenging enough that I decided to put it in as GoG/GoR/GoB for two weeks. Opeth and @ albatross213  are always a worthy combination to include in the Championship IMO. 

From my testing:

 

Did I not win intermediate rhythm ?? 

Or have I got the rules wrong

My bad I see it's only a 3 rating so no level up. I guess

Can't believe I won! First time! 😀

I believe the rules are that you can take the win if you agree to level up to intermediate? Sorry I meant to include that in the OP. I can adjust if you decide to move up.

 

cool week, bad tries

Start!

I recently watched a nice movie "Blinded by the Light". Bruce's work is strongly outlined in this movie, which encouraged me to play some of his classics. This is probably my favorite, fun to play especially on Bass.

Biffy Clyro charts, ehhh

 

Fun!

DELIVERANCE? HE'LL YEAH BROTHER

 

First go. Used to play this a fair bit to test my endurance out with that awesome breakdown. I don't even care about rankings, i just gotta beat my old score (which was actually higher than the high score seen there, it was 1.8m!)

This one is easy at the beginning, some parts are too much for me.

Oh guys..... yd was a great great day for me. A 9 months insanity has come to an end.

 

 

 

That has somehow changed a bit

 

if you wanna have a look and see me suffer go there

Such a fun movie, I highly recommend it too! It really captures what a positive and life-changing force music can be.

Truly staggering for the patience and diligence required to build a freaking guitar with no prior woodworking experience. Scrolling through your posts I felt your pain but was also very impressed. Well done!
