Well that's odd. I kind of feared that would happen. How about this, I'll play another round, but can I pick the song? As kind of like a home-field advantage earned by winning Killer Queen, if you will. Thoughts, Volt and machete?

Thanks googleimage, you also had a nice score and streak. Such a tough song.
I had a feeling that PbtDL would be the final song! |

I really love Modern Love. It's my favorite Bowie song!
Having said that, I actually think your suggestion is pretty fair. I'm in full favor of having one more round but with you picking the song. The one request is that I joined open division because I love playing one expert but I can't play the crazy stuff in the final two tiers, so if you pick something, keep it somewhat reasonable? I can leave it up to you to decide what's "reasonable" as well, though. |

If you two are fine with this approach, I'm fine with it too. Looking forward to seeing what MasterNobody selects.  So, MN, what'll it be?

*crosses fingers for Modern Love*
/sarcasm/
I would actually not like that song. I love the song, but I'm no great shakes at it when it comes to keys. Damn pickup notes. |

Can I pick the yet-unreleased Take On Me by A-Ha? I get the feeling that is soon to be the best fun-but not-overly-challenging Pro Keys chart. That's my pick if it's okay to choose a song that won't be out for another ~30 hours.

You both are on 360, right? If so, I have no problem with this. (It'd be a different story if one of you were exclusively on PS3 and therefore disadvantaged by the PS3's delayed release schedule.)

I won't be able to download it until probably about Wednesday, but thats usually when I start to work on songs for this rivalry anyway, so I'm cool with that. |

Cool, I won't play it on Tuesday just to make things fair. I'm excited to get a crack at a brand new chart. Good luck machete!

You didn't have to do that to even things up. I actually got it downloaded today, but now I'm going to have to wait until tomorrow to work on it to even it out with you. =P
Anyways, just looking up videos of it, the chart looks like exactly what we were hoping for: Lots of cool leads, lots of variety, but without ever being excessively difficult. |

Well, score unhappily submitted.
I spent a good hour or so working on the song getting it from a dismal barely-3-star (and <70%) up to a respectable score, but then my week got super busy and I had no more time to work on it.
...and I just realized that I'm guessing our scores are due by Wednesday, since that's when we both started playing the song.
In that case, maybe I have some more time! |

We didn't ever discuss extending the deadline due to the late start, did we? 
I think the deadline was intended to be 13 minutes ago. I'd be more than happy to be done now, I've done pretty much all I can on this song. Not too thrilled about my results but the verses are just impossible for me.

As far as I'm aware, the deadline was always going to be tonight, late song acquisition notwithstanding. In any case, I have scores for you both now and am putting together the results post - will be up shortly.
