From testing .... within a great MP session with my dear friend @emu

Thanks @Rodman! Merry Christmas everyone and happy holidays! 🎄☃️

Last Christmas is GOATed 🐐, one of the infinity stones of Christmas 💎.

12 Days, good chart!

Had tried Christmas Bonus before but I did much better this time right off the bat 🤩

Cute! Sadie Hawkins Dance by Relient K was huge back in my day 🥀 I remember now All Time Low from last week made Dear Maria Count Me In, used to be my ringtone on my very first flip phone 📱

Christmas Bonus is a cool song 🤘

Boughs of Holly, bass was done dirty all other parts are way more interesting but some good parts

Adv bass is very similar difficulty as the int bass but int is more brrrrr

Added all scores to leaderboard above this reply

Have a nice musweek everyone! Thanks for hosting @Rodman ! Merry XMas everyone!

Relient K - We Wish You a Merry Christmas

I remember my suffering from this one from the week 113 at the beginning of my participation in the championship...

Goldfinger - 12 Days of Christmas

Seems like the song is funny itself but it's stranger to play it also.

Airbourne - Christmas Bonus

Played like a jumble of notes.

Wham! - Last Christmas

I couldn't play Rhythm path.

Trans-Siberian Orchestra - Boughs of Holly

Lead's solos were completely messed up. Bass seems like isn't from this song.

Andy Williams - It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year

yes!! Sadie Hawkins Dance was great, had it in my mp3 player that could only hold like 100 songs ha. I think it used to be on the forge but seems like not anymore. Luckily " Who i am hates who ive been" Is on the site though and also made by @Djpavs fun chart. The day the forge has which to bury us or the hatchet and must have done something right Ill be really happy lol.

I dont think i really listened to all time low that much tho besides dear maria and therapy but i did listen to those two songs more than i could count.

Who'd have thunk :P

Happy holidays! Relient K is nostalgic for me as well, I used to listen to them a lot as a teen before discovering metal. Looking forward to playing it!

Christmas songs and I should have some time 🥳

First results (Bass):

It ain't Christmas whitout this song

This one seems that the bass is on the wrong string 🤷‍♂️

I think the game forgave a couple of wrong or delayed notes 😅

This will take some RR to improve 😅

I'm starting Christmas week with this classic

Lead is a vocal line and some effects, easy and nice to play!

And then I tried Rhythm...

My comment to @Rodman when I saw the 6.5 rating 😉

These chords are very difficult to play correctly (with an open e or B string in the chord). It was impossible for me, so I played them with one finger and muted that string, but it was still difficult. This is often the case when synthesizers sounds are transposed onto a guitar chart.

Merry xmas everyone!!



ah this is how i imagine it feels like to have adhd. Personally would've rated it intermediate as nothing too complicated unless you arent using a pick (which i know some of you dont)
It also made me remember I should play 99redballoons and my favorite song from them open your eyes more often.

yeah...that bass is pretty bad tabbed. havent experienced that in awhile 😅



i guess this week will be an 100% score battle

gtr scores








I think this cdlc could use an update, the ending didnt sound right to me.


i think this song has enough shredding for it to be an 8




yea i can agree with @Mikson that it probably should be higher. It is tough to decide cause it does repeat alot but i do feel like rocksmith doesnt detect chords with open strings too well.

Edit: I have added the missing scores since Drands comment. also thanks to whoever added the last scores of previous week on saturday as i fell sick with food poisoning (tacos lol) and wasnt near my pc all day.

wham probably up there as one of the best Xmas songs

Trans Siberian song on bass Is completely out of tune and the wrong notes

So Bass should be D Standard for this song

here for D standard version

Great fun AC/DC vibes

Kept missing a note or two somewhere fun song playing multiple genres

A lot of movement but great fun to play will keep trying this one

Perfect! Was just waiting for that - thing is that I, myself am soooo bad at non-standard chords that i have to rate them a lot lower than they are for me. I absolutely dislike those synth charts cause it just could be so much more play and enjoyable on guitar with a lil work.

(7.5) it is now - or do you think 8?

TSO bass is Bstd i think - charted Estd, that´s why i put it bonus, could be dropped completely.

Rod

i got a christmas bonus everyday.....
