You're not the only one Senkir, I think the best I've managed is barely over the 100,000 mark on Surrender on Hard mode so far... Sad

There's a couple things I had to get used to. The biggest thing is now I try to make my "home keys" red through orange now. It's easier to reach for green with your index than orange with your pinky.

Also,
Practice mode is your friend.
There was one part that was really messing me up on this song. I went through practice mode until I got it right.

245,388
Notes Hit - 99%
Note Streak - 201

If you haven't hit the target, post your scores anyway, and let us know where you're having trouble... maybe others can give you some tips on how to get through it.

PS: Your strategy with the Orange Key is probably the best one out there...for anyone who remembers playing a string instrument, shifting the hand position is a very important thing to learn. I tend to never have myhands start off at GREEN/RED/YELLOW/BLUE, but RED/YELLOW/BLUE/ORANGE. I find it easier to stretch with the index finger rather than the pinkey.

Alas...its also very VERY important to learn how to get the hammer-ons/pull-offs down. Like Shino said: Training mode is a must for this. Learn how to do it and it makes the game incredibly fun.

Nicely done Mr Tobs!

Not everyone is posting scores, but it's pretty obvious that you are the wiiiiiiiiiiiiiinaaaaah!

So, you get to choose the next song.

Eligible categories now would be Tier 1 and 2 on hard... and I guess anything on medium.

I didn't post my score because I knew that I was never going to beat Tobs. After a couple of attempts, I was around 204,000 points at 97%.

Regarding Tobs picking the next song...it's not possible right now as he is currently en route to Reno, NV and he won't be returning until next Monday. So I would say second place (I believe that's you Shino) should pick the next song in his absence.

Well I wanted to avoid the same person picking songs twice in a row. So I'll let Ultra pick it then.
