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):
  2.1 There are three classes: Beginner, Intermediate and Masterclass.
  2.2 If you enter to the contest the first time, you choose your class.
  2.3 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.
  2.4 Both instruments are leveled separately. You may not choose to play a higher or lower class.
  2.5 You may only enter in one class per arrangement.
3. You may participate in all available arrangements
4. One Song is chosen for all Instruments and classes
5. Every Saturday new songs are chosen. From all participants of a class, one is chosen at random by Kaijn or fron.
  5.1 Every member should put the song he/she would choose in the Song Selection List
  5.2 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.
  5.3 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.
  5.4 On Saturday, if your name is picked and you didn't entered any song in the Song Selection List, another member will be chosen.
6. Starting with the publication of the songs, you may enter your score.
7. The scores are entered in the corresponding google doc: Leaderboard
Kaijin, Krazyone and afterdark take care of entering the scores.
8. You may post a screenshot to prove your score but you don't have to. If another competitor doubts the score you have to prove it with a screenshot. Otherwise your score is deleted.
9. Ranking is done by percentage first, then by Longest Streak.
  9.1 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%.
10. You may submit mastermode scores, but these won't be judged for the contest. Although the best masterscore will be honored separately.
11. When you choose a custom song please specify the guitar arrangement you want to play.
  11.1 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.
  11.2 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.
  11.3 After Sunday 23:00 the songs are set and are not allowed to change.
12. The contest closes the next Saturday around 18:00 UTC
13. The winners are announced in the OP of the corresponding week's thread.
14. Rules may change without notice. So watch out.

Score attack is the best way to play it as it shows your accuracy better this screenshot is invalid because it does not show your accuracy. You have to take the screenshot before it gets to this screen. it needs to show the accuracy. 

just beat my score again... i got 92% last time but forgot to screenshot like a tit but dont matter ;) i jsut got 94%! dont think im playing that again today my pinky is ruined...

After struggling several times with my tele (which has only 21 frets) I played it once with my Ibanez Artcore and got all sections purple:

Keep it up guys great scores

 

@@richomat stick to the ibanez anything less than 23 frets is asking for trouble. 

Thx Krazyone for your fast Leaderboard updating :)

n1 work

All Ibanez Artcore have only 22 frets.

I have the AS 93:

well that last fret is kinda considered a fret so it makes it 23 but yea that is the bare minimum I would go with. My Epiphone les paul 100 is the same and although it is really comfortable and sounds great I really do wish it had 24.5 like my B.C. Rich Warlock does. I love how your ibanez looks though is it a semi hollow? 

yes semihollow.. flamed maple with a 3 piece maple/mahogany/maple neck

I start to prefer this one over my tele's and strats.. the neck just fits so good in my hand

telecasters are for true beginners imo since they are small they are easier to learn on but they really limit you because they are so small. I would suggest you stick to the ibanez just because its a "normal" guitar and once you get used to it you wont ever want to go back to a smaller one. 

hi all!
 
I'm new here and start with beginners class, because i still suck, but i will become better!
Great site, great people. Thanks for doing what you're doing!

Welcome to the championship Rottenboozer great score.

I'm really not sure where you got this idea from. A telecaster is a 25.5" scale length guitar - same as most ibanez's and almost all fenders, and larger than most Gibsons.

 

There is nothing 'small' about a telecaster unless you are comparing it to a baritone or a bass guitar.

Updated!

 

There's still room for improvement. I can nail the solo in RR at 50%,but the faster it gets, the harder it is.

BTW sorry for my english.

We are talking about number of frets on the guitar not actual size.

3rd attempt. Didn't really change that much, but i still want to improve...
