Well, it’s the one year anniversary of one of my favorite stupid achievements of all time! There was a 6 week period of my life where I was totally obsessed with being the best band in Rockband in the world on XBL. My brother and I are both excellent Guitar Hero players and we decided that we were going to invest the time to hit the top of the leader board. The problem of course is that both of us have full time jobs and were going up against deadbeats and college kids that had nothing better to do than play RockBand full time.
But we defeated them. Fueled by buckets of KFC and the associated KFC gravy, we approached it like a weekend job and pounded out 18 hour days to zoom up the leader boards. As you can imagine, KFC grease and “built to break” plastic guitars were not a good mix – we went through 5 guitars in 6 weeks – but it was worth it as we broke into the top 10. Then, one fateful night a year ago, we finally took over the #2 spot after some serious work.
Unfortunately, we didn’t have the stomach to grind through what it would have taken to get to #1 (I know, weak) and we retired on the spot.
What made it even worse was that the group that had the #1 spot was then featured in Game Informer a month later. Those losers could have been us! Burn.
As a real freshman in blogging, I really appreciate posts, which might be of good avail for me. I have a small collection of blog posts and other articles (download many useful by http://www.torrentbasket.com/nubiles-net search engine on torrent files) , from which I step by step learn to earn money blogging. Thank you for your resource.
