Tell you what, if you get The Breaking Wheel while I'm away, I'll race you to get the last 5 when I get back

Sure, i'm up for that... TBW shouldn't take too long, should've got it ages ago to be honest. =P

I put a lot of effort into FCing GH1H and you've got some nasty stuff left. Once I got to 46 and had only TF to go, I spent about a three straight weeks on it before finally throwing in the towel.

I think CfH is easier than it seems.
Gr2R's solo is nasty, and BatM's is worse.
FotW is cake outside the very end- the mini-trills and YO chords are killer.
TF is a nightmare. The early trill, the OSSOD, then the "soloish" part. Plus a tricky lick at the very end. G fing L!

Not having practice mode makes things very difficult, especially when you're just trying to learn how to play parts of songs that 3+ minutes in (as opposed to knowing what to do and just practicing).

I have returned, and with another FC to bump. You were right Sully, it was easier than it seems:

Nice to see someone working on GH1H. Good luck, I'm rooting for you!

Very glad to have your support

I'll never catch up to you due to my pitiful attempts at squeezing, but I'll still go for all the FCs!

Very Nice FC. Did you even plan a SP path? That score is the pits.

I've started slowly redoing all my GH1H scores. I've learned to squeeze and activate with select since I stopped playing GH1H, so all my scores have 1-3k room for improvement. I did the first tier and all are top 10 now, and my goal is to pass emptyset for 2nd, then maybe I'll go for TF. We'll see.

Haha yeah I know. There's only one other FC lower listed and several non FCs with higher scores. My issue is once I get through a hard part (the solos on Cowboys From Hell or Crossroads, for example), all plans for utilizing a good path go out the window, and I consider myself lucky to FC the thing once. If I end up FCing Bark at the Moon it'll be the same thing.

Have fun with the squeezing. I pretty much gave up on it since I'm a lefty and whammying is not my friend nor is using the select button to activate. I got so pissed trying to get the paths for Thunder Kiss 65 and Story of My Love so I just said fuck it. Most of my scores are the pits (Killer Queen in particular is cause to point and laugh). I don't have any top 10 scores except a couple in GH3, and I probably wouldn't even have those if you combine it across platforms, BUT I think I'd rather be in 15th with more FCs than be in the top 5 and be missing FCs, that's just my preference.

Bump. In my last post, I said I have no real top 10 scores, but I have already proven myself wrong now that I have FC #44, and boy am I wiped out after this one.

Another excited bump for an FC that not many people have! (and luckily with the good path)

Just Texas Flood and Bark at the Moon to go. *sigh* Wish me lots of freakin luck!

Damn, FotW is hard. I've hit everything but those damn trills like 5 times. Congratulations.

And the BatM solo isn't really that bad. I've hit it once before, and you're obviously quite a bit better than me, so you should be able to manage. Unfortunately, I still can't hit the riff leading up to the end solo, so no FC for me.

Good luck.

There's a reason why I've always hated this forum. This thread rules, yet drops to page 2 like a lead balloon.

Congrats on being the 6th person to EVER FC FotW on Hard and the 5th person to get 45 GH1 Hard FCs. Good luck with the last 2- you're going to need it =)

Yeah my accomplishments are definitely buried down in here. Glad you were still able to find it and comment, it's an awesome compliment coming from you.

I'm already having daydreams about the Bark at the Moon solo from failing it so much. I'll get it one of these times though. I've come this far!

I cheated a little with the BatM solo by practicing it on GH2 X360. I strummed it all and assumed that extra strums were negligible because the GH1 ho/po system is so poor.

Then I proceeded to screw up twice after getting through the solo in real runs.

I'd like to think that once I get back to it, I'll re-FC it with little effort. I'm 11 songs in so far and most are top 5. Armageddon has re-FC'd it like 7 times o_O
