We now have more than 120M points!

This week we reached our minimum goal by gaining about 0.9M points! This leaves us in 11th place in the real leaderboards with more than 120M points! We would have passed our friends "Happy People Playing ROCK BAND" for 10th if they hadn't also played today (only 23K behind them now). We played 14 songs, so that gives an average increase of 65K per song.

Next week, both "Happy People Playing ROCK BAND" and our band will likely pass "Taco & 3 hung lo", moving us up to the 9th and 10th positions. We have been climbing very fast these last few weeks!

Highlights:
- We try some songs on easy and play just the energy sections to plan our paths and it pays off, leading to a few big increases. It's quite funny to play songs like "Welcome to the Neighborhood" when no instruments can be heard except the overenthusiastic singer...
- Our best increases were for "Girl's Not Grey" (244K, 34th to 10th), "Ramblin' Man" (171K, 41st to 29th), "Welcome to the Neighborhood" (136K, 36th to 16th), "I Was Wrong" (75K, 21st to 7th), "Night Lies" (69K, 33rd to 19th) and "Spoonman" (62K, 35th to 19th)
- The 3 Macas (2 returning Macas + 1 ex-Maca) and Sylvie play an easy song on alternate instruments when DMan has to leave ("I Was Wrong"), allowing us to reach the 120M point mark

We understand, no problem!

Great session, if we can get close to 1M every time for the next little while, that will be very good.
