EWB Inaugural Be A Guitar Hero Contest

[Kaney]

Deadly serious, Mattman.

[Mattman]

I can't pass it either

[Cactus Drags]

I fucking did it!

Dunno whether it was using the Xplorer instead of the Les Paul or what, but I don't care. And I highly doubt I'll do it any better.

[Cadet Ember McLain]

365,872.

[Cactus Drags]

...piss off.

[Cadet Ember McLain]

Tsk tsk... You kiss your mother with that mouth? I feel sorry for Mrs. Dragsy...

[Cactus Drags]

Why would my mother be Mrs. Dragsy? Are you insinuating an incestual relationship? Them's fightin' words round here.

[Cadet Ember McLain]

I thought that would be par for the course around here...

[Cactus Drags]

No, par for the course is insulting Slogger's mom, not mine

[cram]

Sorry Kryptonite. I'm just waiting for sacrifice to blow my score away, as usual. I had a pretty good run, could've done better but I can't be bothered with the song anymore, there's just too many parts to nail in one run.

[Kaney]

You people are not human.

[cram]

I totally fluked that run. My best score before that was 398k and i said "ok I'm gonna crack the 400k mark then post my score". First run through got 402 but felt good about the run so i did another and got this score. Absolutely nailed it then can't get anything over 410k anymore.

[Sacrafice540]

That just might be good enough cram! Even though musically it's one of my favorites on the game it's not one of my better songs. I have only played it a couple times and was one of 3 songs on hard I didn't have 5 stars on. Well I have 5 stars on it now, but I am hovering around 300k after playing a few more times. I will have my score posted by the end of the week unless De says it's gotta be in sooner. I got 94% on the song, but my streak is only at 200 notes so far. I can only play it so much before my hand cramps up....

[cram]

Finally, I take out a round (hopefully). My hand's in pretty good shape from actually playing proper guitar (i got a les paul with a wide neck so my hands are strong)

[Fanku Kaibutsu]

this is about the best I can do.

[Cadet Ember McLain]

So there's no deadline, or just... what?

[Sacrafice540]

Number of the Beast - Iron Maiden

Hard

Score: 451,320

Notes Hit: 97%

Note Streak: 680

SP Phrases: 9/10

Sorry...

Honestly didn't think I could do it cram. You are for sure one tough customer!! Too bad we can't duo online as I got it for the PS2... It would be fun as hell!!!!

Damn man, you just wait till we get to Expert though. It'll be a tough contest for sure. I think I'm like 30K behind at the moment though in the overall standings so i got allot of catching up to do.

[Sacrafice540]

My expert is rusty, but I should be fine and will put up a challenge! (Hopefully!)

I took the liberty of calculating the top 3 peoples scores just to see what we are at. I would go through everyone's, but this is not my deal and don't wanna step on dudes toes, but I was curious to see the top 3 myself and figured others did too.
