Go to the current week of the championship (usually first post/ or the post the latest player has commented on)
Download all the CDLC (play, screenshot, upload, post in forums)
We encourage you to do this ATLEAST for the first time so that we have a better idea of which class you belong to once you post your scores.
After the first week you may pick from your class only or also any other song you wish from the set.


Before playing the songs, first check your rocksmith game settings are correct:

Start the game -> Main menu -> *press the space bar -> Difficulty settings


1- Dynamic difficulty-> off
And
2- Sightreading Level -> MAX

This will make it so that you will see all the notes of the song at all times regardless of how well you play it. If done correctly the skyline in songs (the top bars/rectangles will be purple). They should not be orange. The only exception is if we are using an old cdlc that didnt have DynamicDifficulty (dd) but Ideally hosts will not pick old CDLCS

Make sure to play the song fully in learn a song or in scoreattack Hard and take a screenshot at the end of the song.
The screenshot should include the streak and accuracy.
If the screenshot is incomplete (like the picture above) it will not be counted.
Practice and play the song as much as you want! Have fun

How to take a screenshot:

there are lots of ways, choose the best one for you:

Windows + Mac :

1- F12 (Press 1 button)
This is the default shortcut for steam and will be the most used if you upload pictures from steam (later explained).
You can also change the shortcut + location of where the images are saved by:
Steam -> Settings -> ingame -> screenshots -> take a screenshot (press the button to the right and youll be able to switch it to whatever button you want)

or while playing any game:
Shift+ tab -> settings-> ingame -> screenshots -> take a screenshot (press the button to the right and youll be able to switch it to whatever button you want)

Windows (11):

1- Windows key and print screen (Press 2 buttons)
Will save the screenshot in your gallery folder.

2- Windows key , SHIFT and S (Press 3 buttons)
This will only save a picture of the area you select,
Will save the screenshot in your gallery folder.

3- PRT SC / Print screen/ impant pet sis (Press 1 button, the button is named differently depending on your location)
This will copy current screen to clipboard, you then have to paste it in paint and save the image

But if you want it to work like the windows key shif and s ( 2 ) then:

Open Settings (press Win + I).

1. Go to Accessibility > Keyboard.

2. Find and toggle on the setting: "Use the Print screen button to open screen snipping".

3. After this, pressing PrtScn will open the Snipping Tool for you to select a snip
   
   
   Mac
   1- SHIFT, COMMAND(CMD) and 3 (Press 3 buttons)
   This will only save a picture of the area you select,
   
   
   Uploading to steam or an image hosting site
   
   You can theoritically just drag the image to the forums. However there is a space limit so we strongly encourage you to use steam or any image hosting site to avoid any issues in the future.
   
   You can check what way any participant is doing by right clicking the image and pressing open image in new tab and looking at the url
   
   heres the example of the song we will be uploading (notice how it says steam in the url) :
   
   
   STEAM
   
   Steam will always be the safest bet, as we've had issues with other image hosting sites (such as imgur) where it was no longer accessable to everyone around the word.
   
   There are lots of ways to do it on steam (And all of them require you to screenshot with the steam determined button aka -> f12) :
   
   STEP 1:
   Click view -> Recordings and screenshots
   

OR:

ingame-> Shift+tab (to activate steam overlay)



If you dont see screenshots when pressing shift tab then toggle/click the icon with an image at the button, now you should see the screenshots you took with f12.
press select to choose multiple pictures.

OR :

Click your username-> Content -> Upload screenshots (but this is one more click)



After clicking upload screenshots a new window should appear and look like the image bellow;

STEP 2:

Select all screen shots you want to upload (by clicking them, a tick will display if its selected , if there isnt a tick then it wont be shared) -> click the upwards arrow -> click share on steam




select either public or unlisted, choice is yours. For this example i put unlisted cause i didnt want my steam friends to see my rocksmith posts. And then press upload

STEP 3:



find the picture in your screenshots (the place when you select username + content) -> right click -> copy link adress and paste this link in the comments of the current week:





now you know how to post from steam :)

Img.bb or any other hosting site.

First create your account (free). -> Sign in -Upload images

2: find your screenshots on your pc (these were in gallery cause i used windows+prnt screen) -> Select the ones you wish to upload -> drag them to the site -> upload -> right click image copy image adress and paste into forums comment



how it looks like when you drag multiple cdlc:

Copy Image Address:


once the link is pasted in the comments you should be able to see a preview of it before posting:

usually the link has to end in .png or jpg for it to show up in the preview unless its from steam



Choose what works best for you, and hope to see you soon in the championship! (any other questions or additions let me know)

Additional information (not required to read but just for the curious)
Where do all the scores go/ where do I see the stats/ who is winning?

The scores will be placed in this excell sheet throughout the week.

The most recent week will be the page at the bottom closest to rodmans ranking page. So in this case, the most recent week is week 637

How do the scores get transfered to the excell sheet?

It used to be done automatically by a program the hosts made, however since the new forums update we havent been able to use that method so all of it is done manually

Manually:


By doing it manually one must go to addnewscores page

Copy the information from the screenshots onto the table
Once done, Click Addscores and wait for it to be added (the process sometimes takes longer than expected).

If you cant write in the blank spaces then that means thats a permissions issue and rodman could probably help out.

Hosts also have the ability to change the table from the page week.
