Goal for tonight: solidify ourselves in the top 10

This week our optimal goal will be to go from 12th to 9th in the real leaderboards by beating "Taco & 3 hung lo", "Happy People Playing ROCK BAND" and "Megadeaf".

Although not the reason for having the session tonight, playing earlier this week will help us move past our friends "Happy People Playing ROCK BAND", who have a tendency to play more than once per week to protect their lead.

We are currently in 16th place but there are 4 bands ahead of us with inflated scores (at positions 1, 2, 5 and 12).

To reach our optimal goal of 1.8M points, we will need an average increase of 150K per song if we play for one hour (12 songs), 75K per song if we play for two hours (24 songs) and 50K per song if we play for three hours (36 songs).

Minimum: Gain 0.7M points, to beat "Happy People Playing ROCK BAND" and "Megadeaf" for 10th place
Main: Gain 1.2M points, to have a decent lead over "Happy People Playing ROCK BAND"
Optimal: Gain 1.8M points, to beat "Taco & 3 hung lo" for 9th place
Bonus: Play some random DLC on our breaks

Here is the setlist for tomorrow (worst ranked songs, all songs below rank 30):
1. "Souls of Black"
2. "Ramblin' Man"
3. "Panic Attack"
4. "So What'cha Want"
5. "That's What You Get"
6. "Rock'n Me"
7. "Livin' on a Prayer"
8. "E-Pro"
9. "Alabama Getaway"
10. "Welcome to the Neighborhood"
11. "Spoonman"
12. "Lump"
13. "Give It All"
14. "Bodhisattva"
15. "Our Truth"
16. "Girl's Not Grey"
17. "Colony of Birchmen"
18. "Battery"
19. "Ace of Spades '08"
20. "Pump It Up"
21. "Painkiller"
22. "Night Lies"
23. "De-Luxe"
24. "You Oughta Know"
25. "Testify"
26. "Shooting Star"

We play 2 nights a week cause my kids can't stay up late to play like you guys can cause they have to goto school. And as I told Bongoo you guys play longer on the 1 night a week than we do on 2 nights - We only Play 4 hours on Tuesday and 4 hours on Thursday and do Battles and DLC as well. We Only Did 15 In Game Songs Last week total where you guys did 26 Songs, Plus You guys practice Seperately which helps u out alot Cause noone but me even plays RB except on the 2 days we play. So we are not playing 2 times a week to "try to keep our spot" we have always played 2 times a week and used to play on Saturday too but the kids wanted to drop Saturdays to do other stuff that they felt was more important than RB.

Don't worry about it, we understand. The more you play, the better it is for us since it gives us extra motivation! :)

I just wish i had 3 Local people as hardcore into wanting to play as you guys - our score would be insane :-), but like i said my kids have started getting bored with RB cause they are as good as they feel they are gonna get at it - all we can do now is try to find songs we messed up the Overdrive activations on etc - I dont think there will be many more 500k to 1 mil jumps for us in 1 week - Goodluck tonight maybe u guys will get 700k + more points than we get tonight to be ahead of us :-)

That's true, although getting everyone at the same location on a specific day can sometimes be tricky.

You're right that at this point a lot of the increases depend on proper pathing.

Hopefully we can reach our main goal tonight, good luck in your session too!
