    AC1's First Rock Band Tournament!

    AC1's First Rock Band Tournament!


    I've decided to allow PS2's and in the vocal division, but I'll still have to make small changes in score for PS2 people, so I need to know if you're going to be using a PS2.
    I honestly don't think I can let RB1 Vocalists compete, becuase they have the higher potential score, and there's no way to compensate for it. PS2 users, on the other hand, can just have a small score change and be on their merry way. Sorry to any who are affected negatively by this.


    As far as I know, this is the first tournament of it's kind hosted on this site, but I'm still pretty confident that it can be a success.
    Introductions are boring and pretty pointless, so let's just get right to the point.

    General Info
    (all subject to change)


    This tournament will use songs from the ROCK BAND 1 disc with the exception of the few songs that are not included in the RB1 song pack for use in RB2. (ex: Enter Sandman)

    The tournament will be split into four divisions: vocals, guitar, drums, and bass. A participant may enter as many divisions as he/she chooses.
    Each division will feature 7 rounds-- one for each instrument difficulty. All songs will be played within the expert difficulty level, and each round will last 3 days (72 hours).

    I need EVERYONE who signs up for vocals to tell me what hardware (games) they are prepared to use, because I've been informed by dore that RB2 uses a hugely different engine from RB1. Those of you in vocals will have to use one specific game, as opposed to everyone else who may use either game.

    Scores should be given in the form of a photograph, video, or even a screenshot if the player has software/hardware that would allow one to do so. Any games console is okay.

    If you think I've left anything out in this post, tell me and I'll update if it's necessary.

    Prizes

    Current Pot Total - 870,000 credits!!!

    Donors:
    emerald000- 300,000!!!
    thechild- 220,000!
    Me- 100,000

    tha Guardians- 69,485
    ichliebekase- 69,484
    krunkykai22- 60,000

    RB_Quackies- 30,000
    Oni-Paranoia- 10,000
    Tater Tot- 5,690

    Each division will have credit prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. A player may earn prizes for multiple divisions, but may only collect one prize from the guitar/bass divisions. If a player does finish in 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place in the guitar and bass divisions, they will collect the credits from the division in which they placed higher. The prize they would have earned in the other division is awarded to the player who finished below them. If that player also finished with a credit award, he will collect the prize from the higher placement, while the other prize is bumped down again, and so on.
    For know, I'll say that random.org will answer most other guitar/bass division credit discrepancies.

    Credit Distribution

    1st Place- ~110,000 credits
    2nd Place- ~65,000 credits
    3rd Place- ~40,000 credits

          can i join in drums, guitar, bass and vocals?
          =]
          Sound is simply the catch-all name for repeated pressure differences/vibrations in a range that a human can hear. Outside this range you get ultra- or infrasound, rather arbitrarily defined. Outside that extended range you're left with the language of physics, i.e. direct description of the pressures and the frequencies involved. The word sound really doesn't mean anything, it's just the human label on a set of sensory inputs. You might as well ask how nutritious "food" can get.

                Re: AC1's First Rock Band Tournament!

                how many songs per week per instrument?

                On vocals, the engines are significantly different between RB1 and RB2 so I think you should make a decision on which game we would use. RB1 has the advantage in that OD lasts longer but it's got a much stricter engine and lots of talky issues, where RB2 has easier talkies and an easier engine but a different OD system that can result in a lower possible score. I guess you could say use either and if you choose engines strategically as part of the competition but either way it's gonna be unfair to one engine or the other.

                on that note sign me up for drums and vocals (even though my drums are ****)

                I might sign up for guitar depending on how many songs we do in whatever time, but my good guitar has a busted strumbar and my others function properly occasionally :/

                    Sorry, I rarely use vocals and didn't know about that.
                    I guess I'll have to ask everyone who signs up for vocals what kind of hardware they're dealing with. I'll update the OP and send out pm's to those already signed up.
