Hey guys, I was thinking of another thing that could be fun.

What if we kept a separate board that was a team effort instead of a competition? Basically, the idea would be:

1) First player plays a song.

2) If they FC, a different player plays a different song.

3) If that person FCs, yet another different player plays yet another different song.

4) We keep going until someone misses. If we run out of players, everyone gets a second turn and we keep going.

Obviously each person has to FC the song they choose (or are assigned?) on their first try, or the chain is broken.

There probably wouldn't be a true leaderboard, but I would just keep track of the best chain we've ever done on Easy, Medium, Hard, and Expert, and when we missed we would just start a new one and try to beat it.

Thoughts?

I like the idea. I think it'd be pretty fun tbh.

It sounds like it might be fun, my only worry is how it would be implemented. Not everyone in this thread checks every day, I feel like it would get to one person in the chain and then we'd end up waiting forever for our next turn. Aside from that I guess there's no reason not to try it out at least, we could always skip people I guess.

All in all, pretty good. Got the new top streak, which is pretty cool. But my streak was broken by the stupidest miss, I was activating sp in Lazy Eye and it somehow threw me off and I mis-strummed. I could've probably extended my lead by quite a bit if it wasn't for that stupid miss.

EDIT: Well it looks like I beat the top score for everything :p I gotta say playing that many songs in a row took forever.

Hey, can i join? I started to do career order in GH3, but then i realised it was baring so i moved onto doing some more fun songs that i'm consistent at :P. Here's how it went:

Slow Ride 201,686 (556)
Talk Dirty to Me 331,243 (772)
Hit Me With Your Best Shot 183,244 (491)
Hier Kommt Alex 422,850 (982)

At this point, i thought about switching games and going to play some VH.

White Wedding (Part 1) 259,406 (661)
Cathedral 125,763 (461)

Now i try and go for a song a little harder

Master Exploder 367783 (846)

I go and try WoR now.

Choked on Bat Country. I tried Bat Country because i've FCed it 4 times in a row so i thought i might get lucky.


Total Songs: 7.
Total NS: 4769
Total Score: 1,889,975

Remember that you can take breaks! I did my Smash Hits FGFC over 3 days in 10-30 minute increments. As long as you don't play anything in between it's good.

Yup, check out the new board and see below.

Update 2/15/2014

Expert

---elScarecrow stole the top spot from Bradmasta, but he didn't get to keep it for long as alexhaz64 swooped in with a formidable 16 song chain -- 5 more than the best so far! Good work. I awarded him the most difficult chain due to it being significantly longer than any of the others, and starting off with BYOB.

---Deadtoads joined the rivalry with a nice 7 chain. But it's starting to get competitive, and at this point that was just barely enough to hop onto the bottom of the board in only 2 of the categories. Maybe he can do more?

---Unfortunately for locken, the above movement pushed him off the board in every category except Most Difficult. Better get started on a new chain!

Hard and Medium

---tt122112 still wins, being the only contestant in both categories. I'm planning on taking a swipe at both of these soon, hopefully others will join me.

Easy

---ihatebarracuda (that's me!) stole the 1st from Kris35710 with a Smash Hits FGFC -- the first FGFC in this rivalry. Doing this convinced me that the FSFC chain is definitely possible on Easy. But it's a little too boring for me and I opted out after the first FGFC. Maybe someone else has more patience.

Shortest chain ever done in an attempt to bring this rivalry back to life. GHM btw.

One 619,325 (2146)
Fight Fire with Fire 569,886 (1942)
broke streak on Dyer's Eve lol

1,189,211 points
4088 notes streak

That wasn't an attempt at making an FC "chain", just a lolish moment.

Guess I'm gonna have to go for that too. I'm pretty sure I FCd from Slow Ride to Paint It Black the other day. I'm too lazy to check what my scores were and I have no idea where I missed exactly in Paranoid though.

Bump.

Hey guys sorry for the inactivity / lack of maintenance for so long. Fortunately I didn't lose the leaderboard spreadsheet, so I reuploaded it and it should be working now.

Let's try to get this show on the road again! I axed the "Most Difficult Chain" category, it is just too subjective and hard to compare. I replaced it with a category I call "Risky Business." You win this category by playing more difficult songs, and playing them more deeply into the chain. Basically it is who can FC the hardest song the furthest into their chain. It's still subjective but should be much easier to compare for me, as I just have to pick out individual songs rather than try to compare lists of 15-20 songs to each other. I'm only tracking this on expert, and maybe eventually hard. I think on Medium and Easy there isn't enough difference between song difficulties to really bother.

That category will be formatted as:

Name (Song, how far into the chain it was FCed)

For example John (Dyer's Eve, #7) means that John FCed Dyer's Eve as the seventh song in his chain.

Could you use darker colors for the Hard and Medium boards? I can barely see the Hard scores without squinting and getting my head near my screen.

Revival!

I have FCd all of VH Easy Bass in one single chain, for a total of 44 songs, 3,054,485 points and 12500 notes exactly. For those wondering, I did not do that in one sitting but I did not play at all in between. I broke the chain when practicing ItO on Expert, duh.
