Keep going Sham, you're doing great.  Even if you're only averaging a couple a day, it's still progress.
Even though it'll be an achievement to get first place on all medium bass songs, I sure hope you fall short by a couple because you couldn't beat my score. :P

Thanks Chrisssssssssssssssssss. I've now managed to knock another 10 off Metallica to get that to under 20 left, AND MORE IMPORTANTLY there are only 99 more to go overall!!
Now to move on to GH5 where I need 13 more to get that under 20 as well, and I see that you have a 1st that needs crushing. Maybe I'll give it a try this time around. 
Midweek Update - 10 more from Metallica to take me to 368/467. Not lost any so only another 99 to go!!!

Less than 100 to go... good stuff!
And I didn't count joint firsts or optimals, so feel free to take Bring the Noise as that must be the one you're referring to in GH5. Should be easy enough to beat anyway 'cause I only played it once and obviously can't remember whether I squeezed it well or not.

Very nice work on your goal. I figure even if you get stuck say 25 or so songs from your goal, that you will have done an amazing job. The sheer pace that you are cranking out all these songs is very impressive, and can only be compared to what Fug had at one point on Expert and even more so on Hard. I look forward to following your progress and wish you the best of luck on getting that number down lower by the week. Keep up the great work and good luck to you!

Thanks chem, although I know that I'm only 1st on so many due to a lot of the 'top tier' players not playing Med Bass much, if at all.
Fortunately the majority are only taking 1 or 2 play thru's, but I'm cherry picking a bit for the time being, hence the pace, and I'm soon gonna be left with lots that I find harder (I drop lots of ticks on all the songs with lots of consecutive holds, but I'm getting better). Still truckin' tho' and getting closer all the time.

Yup, under 100 and expect to get to under 75 by the end of the weekend.
It was actually Done With Everything, Die For Nothing that you had 1st on but I must have took it out before you looked. Maybe once I'm done I'll go back and try to break all the ties that can be broken just for completeness!!

25!! Expect to get closer than that. If I fall that far short then I won't be impressed 
As for Fug, unfortunately there isn't really any comparison. I'm not going up against nearly as many players with the skills to get near optimal scores (prolly just as well or I'd have no chance!!)
2nd Midweek Update - 6 more from GH5 to take me to 374/467. Not lost any so only another 93 to go!!!
N.B. I have seen that void has taken 1st on TTFAF (GH:SH) so congrats to you, but as I was 2nd on that anyway going to 3rd is no biggy. As I've only got 4 to get on SH it'll be a while before I revisit them but rest assured I'll be gunning for it when the time comes.

I know this has nothing to do with my current goal, but in response to

I don't think anyone's ever hit it before, but it is possible according to slowhero. Any ubersqueezers out there feel like giving that 8 star a shot? |

Congrats Dr. Sham, being the first to 8 star a six year old song is a crazy accomplishment! Glad I was able to bring it to your attention

Thanks, took me about half an hour but wasn't as tough I thought it would be (or maybe I just got lucky!). Unfortunately, it waylaid me from my main goal of Med Bass as I stayed with GH2E over the weekend and added about 3.5k to my total. Reduxed 18 songs to get that so still plenty more to go in my slow plod back to the top of Easy O211 (3rd still but gaining on 2nd).
As for Med Bass I've now reached my first mini goal of less than 20 to go on each game (got BH, GHM & GH5 down to 19!!). Next mini goal is to get each game under 15 which means 5 more from each of these 3 to get them to 14 left each. Everything else is currently under 15 so looks like I'm stuck with these 3 again. Hopefully it won't take too long and I can get to play WT next!!
Midweek Update - 7 more from GH5 to take me to 381/467. Not lost any so only another 86 to go!!!

I might have accidentally stolen another 11 songs from you while finishing WT.

Next week I'll be looking to reduce Metallica some more & get back my losses from GHVH.

Weekend Update - Due to other 'commitments', I've not had any time set aside to further my progress, and unfortunately for me Chrissssss is attacking both VH & now Hits!! I initially lost 1 from Hits and 18 from VH, but I've had time to get the 1 from Hits and 8 from VH back to leave me with a deficit of 10 this week
Next week I'll be looking to attack those games left with 10 or more still to go and try to get them down a bit.
