thanks - yeah - there's enough going on, even on an easier song, to offer plenty of opportunities to choke. Even little stuff like checking how much OD I have on both the top and bottom of the screen can make me lose focus for *just long enough* to miss a note on guitar.

The choice is yours.

I failed on my sightread.
(No - really, I did. I wasn't paying attention, missed the first pair of notes going by, and then started wailing on the drums to force the restart.)
I finally NC'ed on my third run, after getting a non-FC-but-still-100% on my second run. (interesting sidenote: overhitting does nothing to your 1x multiplier, so you can get optimal with a 2-streak +25 run)

finally golded NTY. It was about a year ago that I finally felt this was in my reach.
Clearly I was mistaken  I've played this song, by far, more than any other, over the past year. I finally figured out the goofy-ass "broken" energy phrase note a month or so ago (which, for the record, I missed in this run.) I had run after run of "not quite as good as that score you got last December" and weeks at a time where my leg just went stupid.
now if I could just get the FC of this and gold on Dead on Arrival... |

Dude, nice! I don't know if I could ever get GS on NTY.
Also, update your accomplishments more often!

Similar in spirit to the 58 songs, 58 stars "accomplishment" i had a couple years back, I've just completed my quest to become the first ever to FG1NS an entire game's on-disc setlist.
What's a FG1NS? A full game 1 note-streak. But here's the part that will make the community argue: you ALSO have to get 100%. "But that's not part of the acronym anywhere, so TECHNICALLY YOU DON'T NEED TO GET 100% BECAUSE FG1NS MEANS JUST FULL GAME ONE NOTE STREAK."
Except that you do, because that's the definition I just made up, so too bad.
The scores, complete with pics:
http://rockband.scorehero.com/scores.php?user=107645&game=2&platform=2&size=1&team=0&group=1&diff=1&vox=solo
I also tried to drop all holds as quickly as I could, trying to produce the minimum score possible while still getting 100%. Also I skipped all the BRE sections (but still hit the notes at the end).
possibly-interesting points of note:
Due to the way the rock meter drains (it drains more for dropping/overstrumming early on a hold than a 'regular' note), this made it possible to fail out on songs with lots of holds at the end of the song. White Wedding, IIRC, was one such monster.
Additionally, the best I could ever do, at least when I was paying attention, was a +2 in ticks from a hold, even if I dropped it as quickly as *I* was able to.
The solo bonuses in LTBR make it impossible to *not* 5-star the song if you get 100%.
Any Way you Want it was especially tricky to not inadvertently abuse the timing window and get a 2 NS, since there were frequently 2 notes very close together.
The competition on RB2 Easy Guitar is light enough that I'm currently in 5th place overall. |

I'm sure that took just as much work as 70xtar FCs do for some other people, more work even. I laughed at your 5th place comment

No words can describe how amazing this is.
Grandeur is the closest thing I can think of, and hilarious is a close second.
