Hey guys, sorry but I'm going to have to drop out. I've got a lot going on down here at school (looking for a job/classes), and I'm going to have my hands full trying to get the State Rivalry up and running while doing work for classes and such. Thanks anyways though and I hope to see you all join up in the State Rivalry too! _________________

I'm sorry to hear that. Oh well, whatever it takes to make the state rivalry AWESOME is ok with me.
Anyways, just updated the OP with all the Week 1 songs.
Pick songs for Week 2 now!
(since there's no 5th person, I'm going to do a random number generator and get a song that way)
My Pick: Gimme Shelter (bet you didn't see that coming, Melestrela)
Robot Pick: Maps (Squeezefest incoming)
Anyways, yeah if you want me to put up everyone's scores I will, but I have limited time right now. I'll do it later. _________________

Ugh at all these song picks! Gimme Shelter???
Payback time, only let's go reverse... longest boringest song I can think of would be, um, Welcome Home
btw, if wildbill doesn't show up, maybe the voodoo doll worked ;) _________________

I picked GS because I haven't FC'd it yet, so I'm gonna try and work my ass off for the FC. I'm also gonna try and squeeze the crap out of it too, so I'll never ever have to hear it again.
That is a pretty boring song. Epic, but boring. _________________

WildBill is showing up, and referring to himself in the 3rd person.
My pick, since we've got three songs that I have a chance to improve upon, so I'll go with a 4th:
Suffragette City. _________________

Dammit Tinker, I don't wanna do that Yeah yeah yeah again.
I guess I'll pick THTF then (Go go Tinker!)
::edit:: Nvm, I managed to sing the songs while I was at my friend's house today. Only thing I FC'ed was Maps, lol.
But when you have time Tinker, I'd like to see Week 1's results.

Oh nice.... I just looked at those results on page 1 and I never even submitted my score for Highway Star I did that one early and totally forgot about it. Grrr hopefully I didn't delete the score off my camera as well so I can log it. Geez. I'm way too out of practice at this stuff.
Oh well, I'm sure my ranking on it would have remained the same. _________________

Hey everyone,
I wanted to let everyone know that I'm gonna change this week a little. The week's deadline will be at 11:59 PM next Sunday (a week from now). That way Melestrela can hopefully get some scores in. Also, I'm gonna put this in the OP.

Just noticed this and thought this was funny. _________________

Ugh, I can't sleep and I have to get up at 5 AM to catch my flight. Anyways, thank you Tinkerbread. I pm'ed you some scores earlier today that I had done today (yesterday, whatever). Bunch of 99%s. When I get back this weekend I'll see if I can bang out some decent FCs. Not bloody likely on Gimme Shelter or THTF lol. And yeah, I figured that if you were going to self-inflict Gimme Shelter on yourself, then I should suck it up and give THTF another go. |

Dude, RJ might've come in fourth place this week, but don't underestimate him. He wins for best improvement in career score/rank. He went from rank #71 at the start of this competition to rank #44 this week alone. That's huge! Grats man. I'm definitely gonna have to look over my shoulder. |

Wow, I didn't know that. Great Job Girl! See what a little rivalry can do to boost your scores? Definitely wins the best improvement award. _________________

Oh, wow.
Sorry for the delay.
Anyways, I didn't recieve any scores from Wildbillkickoff this week.
I guess that kinda puts this to an end.
As much as I hate to say it, it looks like Melestrela is the winner...
Congrats.
Even more congrats to RJUCPU for outstanding improvement, I see you just FC'd Sabotage, which is a real bitch.
Anyways, thanks you guys, It was fun while it lasted, and it helped me get my last FC! _________________
