Ended up playing the song twice. I was planning on serious playing it on saturday but my dad wouldn't let me play for whatever reason . Oh well, whether I lose by 130k (like I did) or by 1, it's still a loss. I can honestly say that the best player won, so great job psx! _________________

FWIW, on this song I downstrum everything too, but i don't use my thumb. I rest the palm of my hand on top of the guitar and stab the strum bar with my pointer finger. It takes much much less stamina. The only downside is that it is hard to switch back to the normal hand position quicly which makes it less of a useful technique in other songs, but in a song like this where the only time you need to switch is in the solo, it works well. If I ever practiced the solo I'm sure I could FC it. _________________

well with the solo theres some things about it to know before going to FC (opinions)
1. Practice practice practice. I used to think this solo was impossible considering tha fact that I could only FC it on slower and down. now I fc it every playthrough after practicing it for like an hour
2. Its pretty late in the song so you might want to make sure you can FC it 9/10 times before going for FC runs.
3. The rest of the song is hard to get down for alot of people dont feel bad if you suck at it at first.
(BTW it took me a month to five star it.)
those are my thoughts. _________________

Ok, here's the deal. I'm missing one of the 2 scores for the 2nd division of this league. I do not want to end this season on a bye. Therefore I will extend the deadline for Cam101 and overlordandm to 11:59 PST Sunday, August 5th. If you wish to send a second score, that is fine.
In other news, the winner of division 1 is psxfreak101 who defeated Brockbfball1563 337598 - 198186. |

Aww...come on. You didn't think I had any chance . Kidding, we both know who the overall best player is (yes psx, not me). He'd be killing me if he weren't working on ps2 so much.
I mean, I knew it would just come down to song choice, but to think that of all songs to pick from we had to play Six and have me get humiliated. When's the last time the finals was decided by almost 130k . I wouldn't have even cared if they picked yyz or thunderhorse, which happen to be 2 of psx's best songs, because, even though I still would have lost, I would still have my dignity (clichèd, I know) because the gap would have most likely been <130k . But, oh well, can't wait till next season![/i] _________________

And Brock, damn man. Gotta learn to alt-strum buddy |
yeah, wish i did that from when I started playing, but too late for that now. psx downstrummed the entire song so I'm hoping to get a little better as time goes on. I bet I'm the the only person on this site that FCs the solo over 50% of the time but can't even 5* it half the time . Oh well, my long term goal is 300k because that's really the only song keeping me down in the rankings. I know most of you don't consider 5th "down in the rankings" but considering that a good Six score would put me 2nd (behind only Sully), I think I should be much higher, but everyone has a song they suck at. I just suck a little more (a lot more) than most people. _________________
