Hmm Caprici Di Diablo is tricky (especially the verse bit) but I'm reasonably confident I can topple erkle here... It just comes down to how much time I get to play over the next few days.... |

Erkle you've won.
I've simply posted the one and only run Ive had time to do so there's a score submitted.
I can't complain - the timetable was published before. I have simply had no time in the last 2 days and today to practice. Stupid real life!!!
The score submitted is about 60K off my best score.... |

Well the leagues score entry page says I've made it to the finals, so Possibly Premature "Yay!".
...but Surfing With The Alien? I was pretty much expecting Satch Boogie, which I was ok with because I've been playing a lot of Guitars Suck trying to GS it, and Satch is pretty much a step down in terms of stamina. Oh well, looks like I need to practice tapping like crazy. Or borrow somebody's Strat. _________________

The league page will now tell you if you've qualified, advanced, or been eliminated.

This is hilarious!
It does sort of look like I've assasinated my last 2 opponents so they couldn't submit a score.
SWTA is a strange choice for final song. I don't think I can hit either of those trills in there entirity...
Good luck deschain. You probably deserve to win more than me having actually beaten your last 2 opponents with good scores. (doesn't mean I'm not going to give it a good go) |

Was gonna say, now's the time to redeem yourself.
I'm already topped out score-wise, unless I get my hands on a strat, which may happen tomorrow. Regardless, good luck to you too. _________________

Yes I was thinking this is the best way to get a good score but I can't get hold of one anytime soon. Could probably get 95% with a strat on both solos.
I have to comment that this is a weird song choice...
Effectively it's a song with 2 hard bits that most people cannot hit at all. I would have thought something like Satch Boogie would have been chosen for the final. |

The songs arent hand picked, theyre drawn randomly. We can redraw if something comes up that just shouldnt be used for some reason, but not pick and choose what song we want. _________________

Results day!
Deschain I'm pretty sure you won so well done if so.
Seize the day doesn't look quite as fast as SWTA. The trills look a nicer speed to hit (similar to working man?). For me a song becomes annoying when it's easy outside of one ridiculously un-fun and hard part.
PS - I would have complained more about Satch Boogie - I hate that song!
Whatever the result today I wanna say a big thank you to everyone who submitted scores and made this happen. As wedll as an even bigger thank you to singemfrc for reffing. You've done a great job on keeping us up to date on proceedings.
Hopefully all the other leagues went well and we'll get S12. |

The trills are actually slightly slower I think, which was messing me
up cause I was actually trilling too fast and dying quickly. I did pass
it after a while though, but it's not easy.
And with no further delay:
