NOW! Live on my socialgamer account! (http://www.socialgamer.net/sp/smokyprogg)
------------------
Code:
REMAINING:
41.   Cowboys from Hell
43.   Texas Flood
44.   Get Ready 2 Rokk
45.   Decontrol
46.   Fire It Up
47.   Bark at the Moon

------------------
18-21: I need to sleep.
------------------
17th: The pictures say more than I can.


------------------
16th: Got SOOOOOOOOOO fucking close on FiU.... FC should be done sometime today. Seriously.
------------------
15th: CotC FC! That's about it. lol.

------------------
14th: EPIC Decontrol choke. FC'd past the fast strums for the first time and missed about 2/3rds through the sweeps dammit. Did a run on SCM after and got it first try though!

------------------
13th: Fly on the Wall FC!!!!! Pic didn't take properly though, but whatever. I'm still happy bout it!
------------------
12th: Got close to Frankenstein like 20 times, but kept on -1ing in the solo. I'll get it, hopefully. No new FC's though.
------------------
11th: A REALLY productive hour. AoS took longer than expected, but still a damn good hour overall.




------------------
10th: Got obscenely close to a FiU FC multiple times... It's comin. Also FC'd Guitar Hero. The song that is.

------------------
9th: 4 new FC's.... None too special. Got like 10 million 100% overstrums in AoS. Awesome




------------------
8th: Missed late in TF and Franky.... No new FC's. Damn.
------------------
7th: 6 new FCs! Woot!






------------------
6th: Went for hard FC's.... Fucked up on CfH/Franky a lot, Hit over 3/4ths of the FiU solo and lol plined with a -1 or so on Decontrol... Easy FCs next hour. Woo.
------------------
5th: 4 New ones, 1 mildly hard, 1 easy, and 2 REALLY easy Also I choked the outros of both AoS and Crossroads. Terrific.




------------------
4th hour, got all of 4th tier. All of these were done within 35 minutes. Woo.





------------------
3 hours in, 3 new FC's



------------------
2nd Hour done... finished off tier 2




------------------
First hour done to mild success. TK65 and YGATC were on first try, SoTW took about 30 mins. WTF.







------------------
What is GH1 Hell, you ask? Well, I will be going through all of GH1 (the best game in the series for those unaware) and FCing every song (theoretically). Doing this within 24 hours is as much a test of skill as stamina. God knows I will want to curl up and die by about 9 PM on Sunday. I did this with GH:A to mild sucess (all but 3 FC's), but made some fundamental mistakes such as not making sure my controller was functioning properly and wasting time on easy songs early on so I was too dead to do hard shit at the end. My plan of attack is as follows: (Copypasta from thread in Misc game discussion)

I learned 2 things from my Aerosmith experience specifically: take fucking breaks and don't save all the hard stuff for last.

Because of this, I will have a topic (You're in it now) that I will update every hour on the hour with newest FC's with pics. This should give sufficient time for the fingers to rest, while not wasting a ton of time.

As for the second point, I will start by running through each song up to three times. For tiers 1-5, I will complete the song if I haven't FC'd by the 3rd run, for 6/Bonus, it would just be a waste of time. After this, at each hourly break I will switch from working on hard songs to easy songs. Hardness/easiness will be the top 5 easy and top 10 hard remaining according to this list (my personal FC breakdown, yes there are some unconventional choices).

Once I have only really fucking hard songs left, I will probably whip out my GH practice disc (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSEM-2Op88g) and go to town for an hour or so. After that, I'll attempt to just get what I can.

Should be some good times.[/img]

Awesome, I can't wait.

Also, I'm not sure I'm interpreting the phrase "taking fucking breaks" like you intended.

I'll swoop in and watch the stream if I am so inclined. Good luck though, I could never commit to 24 hours of playing staredown with a towel-covered TV.

after watching about 10 hours of your aerosmith run, i know how much you want to get this full FC in 24 hours.... it's payback, right??

good luck, smoky!! i have faith
