Posted: Sat Dec 17, 2005 3:07 am Post subject: Guitar Hero Throwdown |
Just an idea here - anyone interested in having a forum-based Guitar Hero throwdown? Here'd be the idea:
- Person A posts a song, difficulty, timeframe, and starting date (e.g., Spanish Castle Magic, Easy, 3 days, starting December 19th)
- Persons B-Ω advise Person A via PM of their willingness to participate.
- Person A, on the start date, posts the list of people who have joined the throwdown.
- Persons A and B-Ω then have until the end of the timeframe (in this case, the end of December 21st) to submit their highest score for that song on that difficulty.
- Highest score by the end date wins.
- The Underpants Rule: People wishing to issue a throwdown may restrict the playing level of other entrants, or add special rules for their amusement (e.g., no one who's beaten Hard mode, lowest percentage with a pass, lowest score with a pass, or anything else that you can come up with ).
And now some notes of my own:
- Songs will be played on Quick-Play. Easiest way for Guitar Hero to track your score.
- Posting old scores (ones achieved before the throwdown began), while unprovable, would be highly frowned upon.
- Posting fake scores would also be mean and nasty and un-PO-like.
- Ninja-ing the throwdown by holding out a killer score until near the deadline is just rude.
Challenges:
- Anyone who reasonably doubts a posted score can challenge it.
- Challenges must be made within 24 hours of the posting of the challenged score, barring extenuating circumstances.
- Yes, this means challenges can be made up to 24 hours after a throwdown ends, you ninjas out there.
- The challenged party must submit proof via image of their score (the bathroom wall from Quick Play).
- If the challenge stands, the challenged party is no longer allowed to submit scores to the throwdown in progress. Three successful challenges against this party will result in their not being allowed to submit to any future throwdown.
- If the challenged party submits proof of their score, the challenge fails. Since posting old scores is unprovable, there is no penalty to either party for one failed challenge.
- Three failed challenges in one throwdown will result in the challenger not being able to submit scores for the throwdown in progress. I mean, that's just challenging for challenging's sake at that point.
And if this is wanted/allowed, I'll go first and throw down the challenge:
Spanish Castle Magic
Normal
3 days
Starting December 19th
Scores submitted before December 19th and after December 21st will not be judged. |

Throwdown is on. Registered participants are Ultrawolf, Kugyou, and Doot (if she can manage). Due to so few participants and this being the first throwdown, anyone who wants to can submit a score for this challenge by no later than December 21st. The challenge is as follows:
Song: Spanish Castle Magic
Difficulty: Medium
Duration of challenge: 3 days (19th, 20th, 21st) |

BWAHAHA! I think 126,000 on Medium is damn near perfect...At this point it's whoever hits the star powah at the right time that wins.
You're welcome to come over oh Dootley one...Maybe you'll stop me from going to bed at 8 PM out of cold and boredom and not waking up till 7:30. |

It was damn near perfect. It took me something like 5 or 6 tries to get it. And yes, it was about hitting the Star Power at the right time. |
