41st place playing each song once through...

I've been bored lately, so I thought I'd go back through the game once more and just play each song once to see how I stack up without the intense practice of playing songs for score. After a few days I'm finally done now and my alternate SH account dspoonrt2 (aptly named) ranks in 41st place on Expert. I even managed to get 5 or so scores that were higher than my previous ones which is encouragement enough to go back and play those songs.

I figure this is about how well I would play songs in a tournament, so it's helpful to see how I'd measure up. Not that I'm encouraging people to clog up the standings with more than one user name, but it was fun for me. I'll delete my scores in a day or sooner if anyone wants me to.

Here's a link to the score page if anyone cares to conveniently gain access to it:

Hey, why not make 20 names and make sure that I never get top 30?

Just kidding.

Actually, I AM a little jealous that in one run on each song you did better than my total score on my many runs on each song.

Speaking of alternate accounts, you should use that account and try to beat the lowest score on the site. It's a really nice break from all the pressures of doing good on songs.

Besides, it's on Easy. It's not like it's gonna mess with the ranking that matters or anything.

Eh, stuff like that frustrates me. I can never figure out the best star path or anything like that. I figure they're similar. I'd rather just play the song and hit as many notes as I can.

There are a few scores you posted that I can't come close to touching... At least it gives me an idea of what songs I really need to improve on.

oh this is borderline depressing.....

Your 1 time playthough beats 15 of my all-time high scores. However, like Huwonk says, it does confirm some songs where I already knew I was weak.

As far as star paths and such..how did you do this? You just know all the star paths from memory and you went for it? There are so many songs, that I don't have them all memorized....so I would have had to cheat and look at my 'notes' prior to trying a one time run.
