Welcome to the GHII League AAA. This is the league for the best of the best, so you should see some impressive stats here. For more information on what the league is, read the first post of the original topic here

Songs for Week 3 (Playoff Week!):

FTK

Collide

Jordan

Rock This Town

Twist: Last Child (No HOs/POs)

Scores will be due at this time (2AM EST) one week from now. So that's Tuesday night/Wednesday morning for most of you.

Rules:

1. 4 songs each week are chosen at random to be played, while 1 song is chosen by a poll. Of these 5, one song will have a certain "twist" to it (examples: playing with sound muted, playing opposite handed, high score while getting certain %age of notes, low score, etc). There will be a 2 week season with a 1 week playoff. The top 11 participants will make the playoffs.

2. Participants have until Monday 3AM EST (12AM PST) to submit scores for the week's songs via PM to myself. This is also the time that I will post next week's songs, along with results for the week.

3. There will be a 10 place point system. For each song, the top 10 finishers will recieve points as follows:

1st - 15
2nd - 12
3rd - 10
4th - 8
5th - 6
6th - 5
7th - 4
8th - 3
9th - 2
10th - 1

The top 11 players after the season is over will make it to the playoffs. The top finisher in the 1 week playoff will be declared the winner.

4. At the end of each "season" the bottom few from this league will go down to the AA league, while the top few from the AA league will move up to this league. The specific number will be based on the number of overall participants between all of the leagues, as well as other factors.

5. Please try to keep this on topic. Discussion of results and smack talk are fine. If you want to make a suggestion or discuss the League in general, please use the topic mentioned above.

6. Most of all, have fun with this. We are not playing for money or prizes (though if this gets popular enough I might throw a scorehero item in down the road), so just do what what you've always done; play GHII for enjoyment.

Participants:

blackmamba

Suitata

If you are interested I will accept signups any time. However, unlike the earlier signups I will check your scores before adding you to ensure you aren't signing up up for a league below your skill level. If you want to sign up for a league above skill level, feel free to challenge yourself.

Base criteria for joining this league: If you can 5 star every song and are capable of getting scores far higher than most others. If you are in the top 50 or so on Expert you probably need to be in this league.

Two things I probably should have mentioned before. First, with regard to photo proof, it is not needed. If you want to show proof, feel free to, but unless there is a massive uproar about somebody getting scores that are seemingly out of their current skill range, it is by no means a requirement.

Second, I will explain how I am choosing the 4 songs. I have a TI-89, which has a random number choosing ability. I set it to choose between 1 and 64, corresponding down the playlist. There will be only 1 song from a tier per week, so numbers reflecting otherwise are disregarded. The 5th song, as you should know, is chosen by the poll found here. As for the twist, I come up with that, and I try to reflect what I see others wanting to see in the threads.

Good luck to everyone and have fun!

Just for clarification:

We work on these songs at our leisure during the week, and make sure to get all our scores in once we're happy with them before the 18th on 3 AM?
