The Kicky Wiki Rock Band Rivalry is
IWillKickU⇒'s attempt to utilize the Wiki in new and exciting ways. A while back someone mentioned using the wiki for rivalries, and I thought that it was a great idea. This will be a Rock Band Rivalry, most likely using Expert Guitar. I don't know if it will be RB1, RB2, or both, and I don't know if we'll include DLC. I'll wait until people have expressed interest, and then we'll base the rules around members input. I'd like to keep this rivalry going until season 11 of league play starts. But that will all depend on the other members once we get going.
Why use the wiki?
In my past rivalries, I've had a deadline of 12:00 EST on Saturday night to submit scores. The only way for people to submit them was to PM me before the deadline. Sometimes, I was out drinking on Saturday night, and couldn't post all the results until the next morning. Sometimes people would send me scores early, and I'd have to fight my cheating tendancies not to peek at them before the deadline (I never did, but GODDAMN that was a struggle!). This will give every rivalry member their own webpage, in effect to submit your scores. Simply submit your scores in your own section of this page before the deadline. This way everything doesn't have to go through me. Everyone will have thier own section of this page to edit pictures, scores, smacktalk, or whatever else they want to put up here.
What about the forums?
I will be using the
forum∞ for sign-ups, but all communication can just go through this page once everyone is given editing permission.
Where do I sign up?
You can sign up either by posting in the forum thread, adding a comment here, or PMing me. I'll add you to the ACLs so you can edit your own section of this page. Once you are in, please edit your section with your preferences for this rivalry. eg. RB1, RB2, either, both, All DLC, no DLC, only common DLC.
Rules
Rules in black are final, rules in red are proposed.
- 1. We will play 3 songs per week on Expert Guitar. They will be chosen at random from RB1 and RB2 disk songs. The sum of the three songs will be applied to an aggrigate total to determine an overall winner when the rivalry finishes.
- 1a. In addition to the 3 random songs, the weekly winner will choose a 4th song from RB1, RB2, or DLC, the sum of which will count toward weekly score, but not total score.
- 1b. RB1 songs can be played on either the RB1 disk or the RB2 disk as an import.
- 1c. No player will be required to purchase ANY DLC that they do not want or are unable to afford.
- 2. The deadline will be Saturday night at 11:59 each week. Players will be responsible for getting thier own scores posted in thier sections of the wiki page each week.
- 2a. Different players may live in different timezones, or have different sleeping habits. Because of this, I'm not going to keep a hard line on the deadline. Just as long as you get your scores posted Saturday night, or first thing Sunday morning, and you aren't madly trying to beat everyone else's score on Sunday. Only play the songs through Saturday and be honest about the deadline.
- 4. Pictures are encouraged, but not required.
- 5. This rivalry will continue until the week that Season 11 of league play begins, or until everyone gets tired of it.
- 6. This is an open rivalry. Anyone can enter at any time, even after the rivalry is underway.
- 7. To propose any other rules, or rule changes, simply edit them into your section of the wiki page. IWillKickU⇒, or another member of the rivalry who is handy with wiki formating and HTML can ammend the rules after a concensus has been reached among all or a majority of the players.
- 8. Do not edit the scoreboard or rules unless you are handy with HTML and know what you are doing. If you're unsure leave it to someone else. IWillKickU⇒ will update the scoreboard every Sunday morning.
- 9. Do not edit anyone else's section of the wiki page. Anyone caught doing so will be immediately expelled from the Rivalry.

IWillKickU⇒ likes Week 2 songs!
Observations on Week 2 before I post scores tonight:
- Nightmare - This song is kinda repetative, but fun enough that I didn't get bored of it before getting a score I liked.
- Flirtin' - Most songs that I suck at I don't really like to play, but this is fun as hell! I probably will come in dead last on this song, but damn. Talk about the most underrated chart in RB history!
- Mountain Song - This song can fuck off and die! I always choke on at least one of those damn triplet runs. I'll be shocked if I have the patience to pull off an FC here. So, I didn't take a pic, because I didn't improve my score, and thought that I would play it a few more times. But then I remembered that I fucking hate that song.
- The Trees - This might be my favorite RB2 song. I've come way closer to an FC than I ever thought possible, and still might pull it off before the end of the day.

Mountain Song: 133,770
Blackhawk12's Section
Still don't have RB1, my friend has suddenly dropped off the face of the earth. but I do have the RB2 scores (no pics this week)
Mountain Song: 136,957 I was really close to FC'ing this, but didn't have the time to spend to try for more.
The Trees: 162,335 super crappy one time through run.
ALSO... I would prefer that any DLC be used solely as a side rivalry sort of thing, not counting towards the final score in any way. My parents just cryptically ruled that I will never have XBL, so sucks to be me.... yeah
Week 1
February 2nd- Wow these songs are terrible... Girls Not Grey has one of the most annoying guitar chart in Rock Band 2, Eye of the Tiger is a path-fest, and Seven held the position for most annoying chart on Rock Band 1... But I signed up, I'm gonna do 'em :P. I also have no problem keeping those 3 that didn't transport.
February 7th- Ya sorry
IWillKickU⇒ but I kinda gave up this week haha. I got too frustrated and I didn't re-download Seven. Here are the two scores I got.
Eye of the Tiger- 135,528
Girl's Not Grey- 170,971
Seven- Zilch
Silly's Section
I'm on dlcquickplay under my xbl gamertag, Loistava - I'll leave
http://dlcquickplay.com/xbox/loistava∞ here for my DLC list. I'd like to have some DLC involved but am fine with just on-disc songs being played. I'd prefer to play three or four songs per week - one random pick from RB2, one random pick from RB1, one random pick from all commonly owned DLC (if we're playing with DLC), and a pick from any commonly owned song by the previous week's winner.
Addition: I'd rather not play the three non-exportables from RB1. Having to switch discs for the sake of one song per week would just be inconvenient, I can't stand Paranoid as a song and the cover is terrible, and Enter Sandman is boring. /opinion
Week 3:
Electric Version: 179,380
Shoulder to the Plow: 226,380
My Own Worst Enemy: 118,627
Highway Star: 301,640
sukergod's Section
I have my DLC updated to dlcquickplay now as well, under sukergod, here is the link
http://dlcquickplay.com/xbox/sukergod∞ for my complete list. I wouldnt mind DLC as well but Im afraid that alot of the popular difficult songs I dont have. This includes the A7X, SOAD, YM, Thrash pack, and RR songs (besides Slpwkr), I like the groovy older songs more actually. Anways, if we just go with 3 then why doesnt the previous week's winner pick any song, then if thats a RB2 song, then IWKU will randomnly pick 2 songs from the other two categories (RB1 and DLC).
Make sense? I dont have the 3 un-exported songs as well as Testify and Teen-Age Riot both dont work on my disc, so id prefer not to play any of them but if they come its no biggie.
Week 1 scores
Se7en - 314494(100)\1273 <~~~~~~~ I fc'd this a few times and each time I screwed the path up, I cant wammy while AS-ing so this is about as good as it gets.
Eye of the Tiger - 140392(100)\800 <~~~~~~~Could'nt beat my old score
Girls not Grey - 176221(99)\449 <~~~~~~~worst song chart ever!!!!!!!!!!! (Ill FC it later but the hour of playing this was horrible, I actually liked the song before this)
Scores for week 2 so far
Mountain Song- 141624, 99%, 486 note streak
couldn't get the strumming in the solo at all, will need to get lucky to FC this someday
Nightmare- 171467, 100%, 853 note streak
FC, a little under my RB1 score but only by about 100 so its okay
pretty happy with this
Excited for this rivalry
I have all DLC, prefer to not play RHCP songs
NYVideoGameFreak's Section
http://dlcquickplay.com/xbox/nyvideogamefreak∞ is most of my DLC i think i might be missing like 1 or 2 but that is not my Gamertag my Gamertag is GermanFatass218.
Also i have an Idea about the person who wins the choice of 4th song maybe we could just do in a line because we could end up having the same person win the choice.
Week 1
Seven - 234,488
Eye of the Tiger - 120,798
Girls Not Gray - 135,538
