Me vs. SThorpe

**HylianHero** · Joined: 22 Feb 2006 Posts: 4673 Location: Santa Cruz, CA

I need a rival. I'd prefer if you were pretty close to my skill level (i.e: Somewhere around...20 places maybe?). I would much rather prefer a Hard rivalry than an Expert rivalry, but if you really wanna do Expert I suppose I can give it the ol' college try. All right SThorpe, you're on.

Round 1: All of This
Winner: HylianHero

Round 2: Fire it Up
Winner: TBD

if no-one else will I will, but I'm not as good as you

(I'll be the 'fall back on' thing)

You know what? I actually thought that me and you would be good rivals right after posting.

You can pick the first song.

I just compared us an "Oh My God!" was my response, I'll be sure to pick Fire it Up next...

I could probably do better, but I'm pretty damn proud of this one.

179,767
98%
251 NS

I FC'd all the way to the SP before the string, broke it right before the SP, then missed the SP in the end of the solo. Yet I still managed to increase my score by almost 10,000.

that's a good score

What strategy were you following? Echelar's one in his video? (obviously you missed a couple though)

I'll get my score in your tomorrow, I really want to beat you.

I've played it 7 times and got over 160000 once. I'll be lucky if I get over 170, this isn't going to much of a challenge for you. how do you strum the solo?

I'll keep plugging away at it, but I doubt I'll beat my score untill daylight (and everyone is up, so then I can really attack it)

p.s. I love the title 'me vs. SThorpe'

I downstrum the entire thing. I have no idea why, since it'd be MUCH easier to alt-strum, but I just can't do it alt-strumming.

neither can I, I kinda gave up on this after a while because I wasn't getting anywhere, I went to playing FiU (I can now FC the 1st and 2nd solos, but not in the same run) and increased my score 2K, to 18th now!

anyway...

164,651

was the best I could do

p.s. can I ask you a question? you said we'd be good rivals but I'm not within 20 places (not even 50) so why? because we're internet pals, 'cos we both post too much, or just cos your nice?

I thought you'd say that

**HylianHero** · Joined: 22 Feb 2006 Posts: 4673 Location: Santa Cruz, CA

Well, we're already playing it. Fire it Up I guess.
