theres still time to change your mind todk my invitation stays open.. parametics would have to brake my door down and forcefully remove the guitar from my grasp before i let you beat me... for all the bulls*it over the years to me and Edgar..i dont care if i come second to last in this group as long as i beat you.. so heres your personal invitation....join if you cant do it with your hands use your pick i dont care I would really love to Flo, but i cant use the pick anymore, my index and thumb nail wont allow for it. My nails bash into the string when i try to use the pick. Im doing well with the conventional right hand technique, but its only been a month or so. Attempting this alegrias would be completely proposterous, unless i took the tempo down to 50bpm Not much point in that. Im working fulltime now, and studying medical transcription 4 hours a day. My practice time is virtually non existant. Still, i will contemplate this over the next few days, and see if i could give it a try anyway. I definatly dont have time to learn the whole piece, but maybe i could get the intro and a few falsettas together at half tempo. I have no idea, i'll just have to see. Anyway, good luck to everybody entering! Its gonna be fun! TK

Haha, thats the advantage of people like Doitsujin in the challenge now, if you dont upload so much like Doitsujin: nobody knows how you normally sound.. I think i have never heard Doitsujin playing something. So even if i would want to be an unfair Judge and to get back at him, i couldnt Flo, my ears are very good. you have to manipulate your sound with 20 different reverb and chorus effects and 10 EQs and finally through a Compressor and a WAH-WAH effect,,,,,,if you want to stay anonymous lol (j/k).´ Dude, you have to be really nice to me in the next weeks,,,,, otherwise.......you know what happens!! (j/k)

(j/k) serious ? do you think you could ? with everyone playing the same thing ? same loop ? u wont be able to pick my sound...the only reason u could is if i did my usual stuff..jaleos, feet, dry sound..etc..usual things i do in my audios.. i will try to play like myself as litlle as possible..considering with how many of the judges i have had dissagreements with in the past its not in my best interest to be recognized conciously stay away from things i would normally do soundwise and playingwise..it will be interesting to see if anders recognises his own guitar so i got 2 challenges...the piece and sounding compleatly like unmyself..or enough to create doubt atleast after you score everything...and before its revealed...feel free to pm me your guess..i am curious anyway i got to go now...gonne research the jury...read backposts see what turnes em on etc ...see if i can find anything to blackmail em with, see who can be "gotten to".. i know that if i stick a letra of cante in there i will have Sean.. I am always nice you pumpkin

What does it really mean to you to beat a guy who is a pick player, and who has only been playing conventionally for a month? Beating me isnt a big deal. Anybody on this forum pretty much kicks my butt right now. I cant play anything but basic stuff, really slow. But if it means that much to you, i'll enter, and upload some sad playing, and you can say you beat me. Then you can gloat, and rant about it. It'll be good for your soul So yeah, im in. I told Doit to send me the tab. TK well not if you gonna enter it like that if you enter ..enter like you mean it if you got no conviction dont do it..i am part joking, part trying to motivate you, part still wanna kick your ass..i am not sure wich part is more important to me, i got confused inbetween all the joking around.. but serious...do what you want...dont feel obliged its no fun competing against someone who says hes going to do bad...takes the fun out of taunting him with victory and showing bad sportsmanship after its very selfish of you to say you would lose and denie me those things ...thats bad sportsmanship ! u can always cut your nails and use the pick...they will grow back in 4 days..youl be at your best and i will absoluteley have to work my ass off (on top of what i allready have to do) to put in a challenge but serious..i saw you do that Guajira video and it looked pretty good, i genuinly thought you had a chance...thats why i pushed you...but do what you like..i guess you are a better judge of what you wanna and can do Whatever you decide i will respect it, il say no more about it...but if u enter do it because you really want to
