Will do right after work. I'll have a score posted by around 6PM EST. =)

Grr.. my 100% score is lower than my 99% score so far... I did improve on my best, though... not much... I'm going to try it a few more times and post my final score.

Thanks for challenging on that song.. now I never have to play it again!!!! Woo hoo!!! It's a good song, but I hate playing it over and over again...

Edit: Also, if you want screens, we can do that. I know you said we don't need to, but just in case...

4 runs....last 2 were 100%..but i saw the 3rd didn't beat yours...so I tried a 4th time and got..

170644 - 100% - 403

I know I missed a chord that I normally got..which would have put me within 200 of your score..so you obviously beat me by that chord and another note somewhere under star power. Good job. I can't believe I had not 100% this song until tonight...and then I did it twice in a row.

Close one. I see we both need to improve our No One Knows scores..how about that next?

Congrats on the 100% and big score leap. My Killer Queen score was in around 5 runs.

Sure, lets do No One Knows next. I'm not very good at the song anymore, but after a few runs I should be good to go. I'm not sure when I'll be able to post a score. I'm probably going to have a busy weekend... I'll try to make enough time tomorrow to do it.

No rush. Weekends are usually busy for me. However, Friday nights I am free...since I am and old fuddy-duddy. I'll probably post mine sometime tomorrow night.

Dammit... you're going to win this one. I'm too sick of the song to play it anymore.

No One Knows - 318462 - 98%

Good for 28th place. A fair increase!

Sorry about not playing last night if you were looking for a score. Wife ended up wanting to watch a movie with me.

I played it quite a bit today..I won't even pretend this only took me 5 runs...more like a a dozen full runs and 3x as many restarts...but I finally got a run where I only screwed up (bad) in the solo and the two GRYBOBYG runs (I am sure you know which ones I refer to).

323012 - 98% 345 notes

This is a huge increase for me and I finally feel like I can play the song now...I just wish I could do better on those runs that go all the way up and down the neck.

Your pick for next song.

No worries! It isn't like we're playing for money or anything. Congrats on the increase! I couldn't hit either of those runs either. It's weird because I used to hit them like 80% of the time, but I've changed how I play now so I need to readjust.

Cheat on the Church... we both could use a nice increase on that song.

Edit: WOW! Already a 30K increase. That 250K should have been 270K though. I missed on 8x star power in two different spots... and at right before the long RY hold after all the fast notes, I broke my combo. I 8x'd almost all the way through that! So far you can see my unofficial score, but I'm going to keep trying throughout the day.

*sigh* I can't even beat the increase in your score as of now. let me know what you finally get on it.

241974 - 96% 212

The % says it all, I finally got a run where I did really well in the last solo of the song, but I pooched it in two other places (one under star power)...so that probably cost me 20k. All the other runs where I don't screw up the normal parts, I do my usual suck routine in the solos..and average 225-235k. MEH! At least my average is now better than my previous high..and I did make a 20k increase.

I see you have moved up to 19th. Nice. I'm going to say lets do Godzilla next (once you post your final try on cotc).

250,566 - 95% - 260

I definitely will get 270K on this some day. I just need another run where I nail the intro. I didn't manage to beat my initial increase.

I'll post my Godzilla score sometime within the next few days.

I just was in the zone yesterday! I broke so many personal high scores... Some of them I SMASHED...

Edit: And again today apparently. 11K increase so far, and that was only in 4 runs. I think this competition is making me a LOT better... I thrive under competition..

I need at least until tomorrow before I can post my Godzilla score. I don't think I will get a chance to play tonight.

Bleah..I have a feeling you are going to crush me this round..

181400 - 96% - 170 notes

A modest increase in my score, but not the breakthrough I wanted. I wanted to break 190k....but I clearly just lack the skills. I even had one run where I was excited cause I thought I was kicking ass and I was going to crush the 181k I knew I had..but when the song finished, I only had 177k??!? I must have missed somewhere important and did not know it...

Win or lose, you pick the next song. I think you have been playing a lot more, so I don't want to pick a song that you've been playing to improve overall.
