The power supply on my laptop decided to give up the ghost after about 4 years. I'm not happy about it, but it is better than the 2 hard drives I have lost on it. I have ordered a new power supply, but am waiting for a shipping confirmation. Haven't been able to be on much thanks to this, but I have been able to play more Guitar Hero!
I found out that my younger brother is at about the same spot as me, working on 5 starring every song on Medium. He had 17 left to go on Saturday, I had 24 when I counted. Now I have 7, so I need an update from my brother. Last he told me he had just 5 starred "One", I haven't gotten that one yet so I may be losing this race. He was able to make it through TTFAF as well (on medium) and I only just managed that last night.
When my hand gets too tired to fret properly or I have reduced myself to a sort of panic strumming (going too damn fast on paced songs) I go back to easy and work on 5 starring the unlockable songs. I finished that last night, so now I need a new hobby for when my hand (or head) is too tired to play right. Golden 5 stars? The downside would be the intense desire to restart when I miss a note, it may be more frustrating than it's worth.
Thanks to those that have given me advice, I am already much better at my hammer on and offs, and will try adjusting my hand for Hard tonight. I would love to get through the first set on Hard. My brother has only beaten one song on Hard so far. :)
