Just so you know, I haven't forgotten. I've made a couple of improvements today and taken the lead on those particular songs but I'm still quite a bit behind overall. Needs moar grind. Lucky I've got sod all else to do with my day... :P
I'm still crap at remembering to do bass though. I've still got a shitload of songs to play on expert guitar... I think it was a mistake buying so much DLC that I'm still trying to catch up nearly three months later. _________________

Sorry to double post but I thought this deserved it...
It really didn't need much grind, just a bit of replaying on songs I did horribly at before. Three plays of Outside gives an 80k improvement - I'm seriously ready to believe I was drunk when I got the score I had entered before. Two plays of Cherub Rock brings 53k improvement and just one play of Day Late, Dollar Short gives an extra 19k and a bit. Also 9k on I Get By but you're still ahead on that, I just can't get the strumming right at all.
I'm finally starting to use paths. Not strict, just really vague sorta 'this many phrases then activate straight away or wherever' kinda pathing, but good enough to get me 80th on Day Late, Dollar Short which is alreet I reckon.
So yeah. Back to you then fella.
EDIT, 9th August: top 600 now thanks to a 16k improvement on Wanted Dead Or Alive.
EDIT, 10th August: improvements ahoy. 16k on When You Were Young, 13k on Next To You, 13k on Welcome Home, 17k on Highway Star and 20k on Enter Sandman. In-game career score just tipped over 8.5mil (8.51 to be exact), SH leaderboard score not far behind. Sorry dude. _________________

Lol nice work mate
Been away since last week but looks like I gots some work to do!
8.5mil is probably where I'll top out though I'll be pretty stoked if I can hit that.
Nice to see that our respective skills are still improving though I thought I'd struggle to 5* all the songs back when I first got the game, let alone GS most of em lol _________________

Finished expert bass off just now... got some more work for ya.
Managed to FC exactly half of 'em on first runs, plus a 100% overstrum that I'll fix later. Methinks 8.5mil will come a lot quicker on bass than it did on guitar. _________________

Needs moar BASS!
Nice work, I'll have to go back and FC a few of the ones I missed, plus my RTTH score is painfully laughable (painful due to the fact that every time I try to play it again I forget to warm up and have to quit halfway through to stop my arm permanently seizing up! )
I really want to sit down and practice GGaHT solo 2. It's mainly the ziggys that give me problems, if I can get better at them I'd hope to improve my score by a fair bit.
On a side note did you get this weeks DLC? W. T. F. Ive spent most the week in shock that I actually passed them all.
I'll be going on a huge data input session soon for all my DLC scores (majority are just sight reads) so should be interesting to compare. _________________

Heh yeah, I got this week's DLC but only got around to playing the first three alphabetically so far. Erm... Clouds Over California, Constant Motion and... oh yeah, Aesthetics Of Hate. Passed 'em all first time, 4* each. I'll get around to the others when I'm not doing my voxtar/bass BWT. Seriously trying to avoid the random songs, I've got so much DLC that I've only ever played once and I'm proper fucked if any of that comes up.
...actually, I was forced to play My Curse voxbass today. Fuck that song, fuck it hard in the ear. Avoiding it in GH3 didn't help prepare me for that mess of vocals.
Yeah man, that GG&HT ziggy fucks me up royally, can't get through it without OD and no amount of practice seems to help... if you get ahead on that I won't be fighting to get it back. :P
Run To The Hills bass is fucking stupid innit, 97% but only 4 stars... lulz. I guess I'm pretty good at gallops but really bad at knowing when to stop strumming.
Not sure how much I'm gonna get done this week, I'm working Tuesday and Friday (fucked if I know how I always end up doing DLC days) and I'm expecting some drunkenness on Wednesday so we can write the whole week off after tomorrow I reckon.
Aaand this has been an essay already so I'll stop there. Also it occurs to me I've used the word 'fuck' in some form in every paragraph here. Methinks I need to stop cussing so much. _________________

Nope I think you're still ahead on bass.
I havn't been playing for score for a fair while now. Far too busy at work, gonna be at least another week till I get the chance so don't get too far ahead! _________________
