Posted: Sun Oct 17, 2010 12:52 am Post subject: The Race to 83/84 RB2 GS on XGuitar! jawnintendo wins! |
|
|
As you may or may not know, I've set myself a goal of 83 GS from RB2's setlist on Expert Guitar. So to push myself a little, I've decided to set up a rivalry to get some competition.
The Rules:
1. You may have any number of RB2 GS to enter. I had 71 when I started.
2. Have fun. This is very important for every rivalry.
3. You may sign up whenever you fancy, just post a message telling me how close you are, and which ones you need.

I may extend this to other instruments if it is demanded enough. _________________

I won't be joining this because I'm going to be focusing on RB3 when it comes out. Just a suggestion, though - I'd clarify which system's gold star cutoffs you're going to use. If it helps, you can use this excellent page made by Kawigi. |

@Steadysphere: Yeah, of course you can enter. I never expected to win this anyway.
@Sukergod: I'll add you to the rankings when you tell me which songs you need. Thanks for joining. _________________

Best of luck to y'all.
Hint on Visions: Combo everything but the outro and bridge, and focus on the outro.
Dude: I don't think there's really much deviation in regards to the OD path. The 2nd activation could be moved to the 1st R in Verse 2, but rest of it is pretty set in regards to points. Good luck, though, and I suggest ensuring you can get all but the solo and Odd Riff 2 first, if you haven't already, and then focus on getting all but Odd Riff. _________________

The only reason I said it was hard, was because I'm going for 83/84 FCs, and refuse to finish that song without an FC. I'm so close that I guarentee I could gold it every try. But thanks for these tips. You're a freebird lolwot
ShadoWolf: I think it's not myself underestimating the songs, it's Scorehero underestimating me. I've FC'd Red Devil, Lazy Eye, Ride the Lightning, and many other crazy things. I think that 84 golds will be fairly easy, minus Visions of course. I predict I'll have 83 golds by the end of Tuesday (if my disc doesn't keep crashing). _________________
