More of an 8 for me

@ Nacholede

Good job! Unfortunately, I didn't win the masterclass bass, because I don't compete in this class, and I don't want to be promoted yet. So the win belongs to @ coldrampage

 

Got it! I'll fix it asap

 

 

Wow, @ Nacholede
What a week!
You have got some of my alltime most fav to play files up there - The Red Baron, Dig up her bones, Orion.... and so much Maiden.

One issue - it´s even too much stuff for one week!!! That is a full selection for 2 weeks. There are songs that are bonus only, and those always are lacking enough attention.
I´d suggest splitting that week into two. If you want you can have my selection spot for next week, you take the bonuses away and have another insane week running back2back.

What do you say?

Files are too big, so i used imgur

@ Nacholede Thanks for the great week, but i think I won the lead masterclass. I posted in the last minute, so it's not in the leaderboard.

I generally agree with @ Rodman . This is a selection for 2 weeks. For example, Writing On The Wall is added as a bonus on all paths. It's also a pity that with some CDCLs only one path is used and the rest are lost.

Trying Red Baron (I haven't played this before).

Lead is more like Advanced class, becouse solo, so 6-6,5. The rest of the song is much easier, so this can be accepted as Intermediate.

And Rhythm, @ Nacholede I can see you didn't use this, which is a perfect suggestion for Beginner Rhythm (2-2,5). So maybe you can add that instead of repeating the Lead chart from Misfits?

such a cool to play song, love it, not any easier than the historic version (7), advanced

 

 

 

 

Love that one, great beg track (2-2.5)

 

 

 

great adv track (7)

 

 

 

better

 

 

 

cool song, hard int (5.5-6)

I think I went full ham this week hahaha. Got it, thanks man! 

Swapped the beginner tracks for rhythm. Now The Red Baron takes the spot!

I wanted to try something different, specially with the bass path. TWOTW I think is a good advanced challenge overall so that's why I chose it to remain in all paths

It is an excellent chalenge!

Use it for next week!

You did so much work, you have a full 2nd week. Just remove the bonus ones and use as next week regular ones!

 

Love all that selections!

That Ed Sheeran song is fast paced, I can barely keep up at 90% speed

another nice song

 

 

 

fun bass

plat on 1st, (6)

 

 

 

I, for one, am planning to play each and every one of these. Including the unlisted arrangements. It won't be my best scores tho...

Here's some sight-reads from the beer dimension:

The Bach fugue in the beginning does not fit imo.

I really like this one, it makes you feel like a virtuoso while being manageable.

Didn't expect to like this one, but it's really fun.

Those are some dark lyrics.

It's my favorite karaoke song, yay.

I'm not posting difficulty ratings today, because my judgement is impaired.

Oh yeah, almost forgot:

1. @ Rodman I wanna help keep the leaderboards updated. I'll create a google account for this tomorrow. Do I need some kind of permission, or can anybody change it?

2. @ Nacholede In the first post you forgot to mention that the megadeth song is in Eb standard.
