    Being Good = Unsportsmanlike Conduct?

    So I just finished playing four hours of Score Duels and three people on Xbox Live marked my rep down for Unsportsmanlike Conduct. What the hell? If you're not competitive on Expert level then maybe you should play Hard when online. Seriously, some of these people can only manage as little as a quarter of the score you should be getting on Expert.

    There was also one guy who stopped playing Shooting Star about a quarter of the way through without quitting and then marks ME down for Quitting Early. I won't stop playing a song just because the other person isn't doing well or stops. If he had disconnected his ethernet cord I would have filed a report for cheating under Console Tampering. That pisses me off more than quitting early because then it just recognizes it as the other player leaving instead of conceding defeat.

    On a lighter note I did do about four matches against ParadigmShift89 today, and boy was I nervous! I almost got him on You Oughta Know, but choked at the end. Where'd You Go was another close one because he choked in the solo, but I choked worse.

    Sore Losers, unless you were bashing them saying you can do better. Always say good game after a battle, maybe that could help.

    You file complaints for tampering when people take the cord out? You take this stuff too seriously. The console tampering refers to creating modifications within games using modified consoles.

    Rep means nothing on Xbox Live. Get over it...

    You think that's bad? 25% of complaints against me are for using bad language. I don't even use a headset.

    I mark anyone down who quits early so I have less of a chance of playing against them online again. I know Console Tampering is defined as a modification, but I stretch it to include anyone who interrupts online play just because they are losing. I did it in Gears of War and Call of Duty 4 too.

    And I don't care about the rep, everyone who is online regularly has 5 stars anyway. The point is that they are sore losers and taking it out on me. I don't care if I lose, I just like playing the game. I don't use a headset because I don't see anywhere to plug it in the RB1 strat.

    The plug is, if you're right handed, about 4 inches above where the strap attaches to the guitar, on the side.

    Oh, and stop being such a poor winner, you jerk. lol

    Holy crap, I never noticed that before. It's so tiny, unmarked, and indistinct! I think I searched the thing more than a dozen times looking for it... unless you used your sorcery to put it there .

    Not being funny to the OP but i'm guessing he/she hasn't played many games on Xbox Live.

    Basically if you win, you get bad rep. It happens on every game and it's been happening for a long time.

    Make sure you have the extra crappy adapter so you can use your headset. Then you're better off not using it at all.

    If you think that's cool, check this out...

    BAM!

    There's now another hole on the bottom side of the guitar that you can use to plug in your drum bass pedal, thereby stomping your way to overdrive activation.

    You're welcome.
