 |
|
Welcome to the GHII League AA. For more information on what the league is, read the first post of the original topic here
Songs for Week 3 (Playoff Week!):
Stop
Sweet Child O' Mine
Thunderhorse
Fall Of Pangea
Twist: Tonight I'm Gonna Rock You Tonight (0/X SP)
If you don't know what this twist is, it is getting your stat sheet to show 0/X SP, where X is however many SP phrases there were in the song. This was conjured by Barfo, and here is his explanation as well:
| Barfo wrote: | | The twist "0/X SP" is one i jsut thought of which is similar to "no SP" but not the same. No SP means you cant activate SP, 0/X SP means your stat in the more stats screen for star power phrases collected needs be zero, ie you are not allowed to collect any SP pharses (lightnign bolts). You can still activate SP if you get it by virtue of enough whammying. |
Scores will be due at this time (2AM EST) one week from now. So that's Tuesday night/Wednesday morning for most of you.
Rules:
1. 4 songs each week are chosen at random to be played, while 1 song is chosen by a poll. Of these 5, one song will have a certain "twist" to it (examples: playing with sound muted, playing opposite handed, high score while getting certain %age of notes, low score, etc). There will be a 2 week season with a 1 week playoff. The top 11 participants will make the playoffs.
2. Participants have until Monday 3AM EST (12AM PST) to submit scores for the week's songs via PM to Barfo, unless otherwsie noted. Once results are posted for the week I will post the next week's songs.
3. There will be a 10 place point system. For each song, the top 10 finishers will recieve points as follows:
1st - 15
2nd - 12
3rd - 10
4th - 8
5th - 6
6th - 5
7th - 4
8th - 3
9th - 2
10th - 1
The top 11 players after the season is over will make it to the playoffs. The top finisher in the 1 week playoff will be declared the winner.
4. At the end of each "season" the top few participants from this league will advance to the AAA league, while the bottom few from the AAA league will join this league. Also, the bottom few from this league will go down to the A league, while the top few from the A league will move up to this league. The specific number will be based on the number of overall participants between all of the leagues, as well as other factors.
5. Please try to keep this on topic. Discussion of results and smack talk are fine. If you want to make a suggestion or discuss the League in general, please use the topic mentioned above.
6. Most of all, have fun with this. We are not playing for money or prizes (though if this gets popular enough I might throw a scorehero item in down the road), so just do what what you've always done; play GHII for enjoyment.

If you are interested I will accept signups any time. However, unlike the earlier signups I will check your scores before adding you to ensure you aren't signing up up for a league below your skill level. If you want to sign up for a league above skill level, feel free to challenge yourself.
Base criteria for joining this league: If you are capable of 5 starring all but the hardest songs on expert (Jordan, Six, Misirlou, and the like) you belong in this league. If you can 5 star every song you will probably want to sign up for AAA.
Two things I probably should have mentioned before. First, with regard to photo proof, it is not needed. If you want to show proof, feel free to, but unless there is a massive uproar about somebody getting scores that are seemingly out of their current skill range, it is by no means a requirement.
Second, I will explain how I am choosing the 4 songs. I have a TI-89, which has a random number choosing ability. I set it to choose between 1 and 64, corresponding down the playlist. There will be only 1 song from a tier per week, so numbers reflecting otherwise are disregarded. The 5th song, as you should know, is chosen by the poll found here. As for the twist, I come up with that, and I try to reflect what I see others wanting to see in the threads.
Good luck to everyone and have fun!

| I'm sorry Tahmer, I hope you can get that data built up again in time for the next one. If you get it back sooner, you are more than welcome to join in midway. |

So you'd rather just continually rape the same people week after week... if thats what you have to do to make you feel like a better person instead of actually competing with people of the same skill level... i feel bad for you. and your suggestion to play jordan in the song poll thread just shows that you're being a dick... |

| I suggested Jordan as a joke, I don't think anyone else will vote for it. Also, if I go into the next league I'd be last and in this league I don't know... I've been playing on Hard mode for the past couple weeks and most of you guys are higher up in hard than me. I don't mean to be a dick, sorry if I acted that way =/ |
