RT: Drunk Tank #12 (Rooster Teeth Podcast)
Hey Everyone,
It’s Geoff here filling in for Gus on the podcast tip while he’s off dodging work in Florida. The latest podcast is located here. As always you can subscribe to it via iTunes or Zune Marketplace, although I don’t know how the hell to push it to either of them, so you might have to wait till tomorrow to listen on those services. If you would like to read more about the links discussed in this week’s podcast you can see them in the official Drunk Tank group.

Halo 3 Mythic Guide Version 2.0 – Tsavo Highway
As we mentioned yesterday, the next phase of Tyrant’s Summer Mythic Recon Challenge involves the level Tsavo Highway – so to make your life a little bit easier, his revamped guide to the level is now up in the Halo 3 Mythic Walkthrough V2.0. Not only is there a set of suggestions for a relatively safe completion of the level – there’s a ‘Kamikaze’ version that whips you through the first half of the level in 4 minutes. Go read, and watch! See if you can beat his times.(Louis Wu 14:20:54 UTC)

Breaking In – Chris Opdahl
There was a new Breaking In article posted last night – Chris Opdahl (Campaign Design Lead for Halo: Reach) discusses how he got his current job (and I gotta say, there’s potential for a sexual harassment lawsuit in there), and what you can do to increase your chances if you want to follow him.(Louis Wu 14:00:51 UTC)

RT: Dumbledork
My only problem with today’s comic is that I didn’t get to be in it. In reality, I’d have been pushing Matt AND those little bastards out of the way.

One Final Effort (Hard) – For Piano
This is a modified version of Jonathan’s excellent transcription of One Final Effort for the piano (also available on this site).
As the title states, this is a harder version, and is meant for peope who want more of a challenge. Do enjoy!
Much credit goes to Jonathan for the original transcription, as parts of this score are still the original. Pedaling is left to the pianist’s discretion.
UPDATED VERSION: Added some more parts mostly, and a bit of fingering added as well.
Attachment contents:
Sheet music (.pdf)
Finale notation file and backup (.mus, .bak)
Midi playback (.mid)Note: The midi doesn’t sound that great at the end, mostly because I didn’t put pedal marks into the score. Also there’s some wierd problem at the end in which one a tied note gets played again. Any help would be appreciated.
Another note: In the final few bars, I actually intended that the left hand be ignored (I didn’t find them very nice in my opinion), hopefully that should sort out a few things. I just left it there for anyone who liked it.
