@2groggy 1. What is the FB police? 2. What's the deal with this freebird thing? 3. Why do you only show up when someone dies? Are you Death from Discworld?

@avastregYour move.

You're posting a link to the gallery. The forum software here does not know what to do with it. If you RMB directly on the image, select "Copy Image Url" and then paste that here it should inline automatically. Like this: WARNING: This is a austywells score, not mine. Do not put it in the leaderboards.

1. I've decided to keep the original difficulty ratings and ordering for historical accuracy, but imo everything should be rated at least a point lower. Except the Green Day bass, which is more int than beginner and I think should get a 4. 2. The Extreme song has a really cool solo, and Brian May seems to agree with me on this https://youtu.be/fqkKFhFMaIw 3.

I don't know if I'll get the time to get to 100, so this will have to do for now.

My guess is I'll get 98-99 once I sober up. PROTIP: If you can't stretch 2nd to 7th fret, you can play the same notes a string higher. Rocksmith does not care as long as it's the correct note.

Nice scores, but are you aware that your still listed as rhythm beginner in the players list? Wanna level up? Also, if you could post the images inline, instead of a link to a gallery, it'd be really easier to register your scores.

Progress is slow.

It seems to be working on my end. Can you give more details?

No sight-reads from me this week, since I had to test all the songs. All I've got is this: but it ain't my final word. EDIT: I think the stretches in this song tie in nicely with the pinky finger discussion from last week.

1. To guys who like to play all the arrangements (like me), sorry for all the tunings. When I noticed it it was too late. 2. As always, feedback on the difficulty ratings is greatly appreciated.

New week is up, thanks everybody for participating.

It's much harder than it looks on first glance. I'd give it a 9.

What happened? Is this a playing related injury, or where you in a car crash or something? Hope you get well soon. As for the pinky discussion, here's my 3 cents: 1. Playing bass really helps build up strength if you don't overdo it. Esp. for the pinky since it's harder to avoid using it. 2. Lighter string gauges are just better in every way. 3. When bending always use other fingers to support. I actually have an opposite problem. When playing high up the neck where the frets are close together I have to consciously remember not to use the pinky, just because my fingers get too close to each other sometimes.

I didn't check, but parts of the solo sound the same as the solo from "Jessica" by the same band. Like note for note. I'm not at my best today.
