Mikson

I'll just add: @ BubbleWrapDragon I also had problems with recognizing notes in solo of the song Scarlet Begonias. So it seems that the fault is clearly on the CDLC side, in some CDLCs I have poor recognition and, despite many years of playing, I still don't fully understand what causes it... @ jimmy655 I mentioned earlier that it is difficult to rate the difficulty of a chart like the one in the song California Dreaming. I don't think this chart deserves more than a 5.5/6, and the scores are lowered by unrecognized pull-off notes. Despite this, in this song we play on one string and on similar frets, while, for example, in Slash song we have to move much more and jump between strings. Anyway, you achieved over 99.5% on Slash song rated 7 (the highest rating for the advanced class), which promotes you to the masterclass on bass. If you think it was too easy and you don't want to level up yet, just write in the new week's topic.

This week is over! Thanks for competing! New championship week started here:

I've improved this before but forgot to publish. I didn't do anything else this week. I'm already creating a new week. It will start in about an hour.

Bass I rated this a bit too low first time, the riff at the 12th fret and the quick transition down makes it more than a 2.5. Although I succeeded in this attempt. Type of chart problematic for difficulty rating. Generally, this is not so difficult because we playing mainly on one string and similar frets, but the large number of pull-offs makes it easy to get misses. Need to improve! This is a really difficult chart to get high accuracy in Rocksmith. I feel like I got a lot of random misses here. But it's really fun to play!

Rhythm

Mainly from testing Lead I'm not sure if this deserves a difficulty 3. I thought 2.5, but I gave a 3 because of the rather fast licks with pull-offs. The rest is the vocal line and is quite easy. Here the chat is similar for all paths. It doesn't seem overly difficult, but there may be problems with accuracy due to a lot of pull-offs. I played this again today after a few months and I improved a bit, but it's a difficult chart to get a high score for me. Other than that, this is a fun song! A really fun to play Slash song, glad I got to see him and the rest of the band live recently!

No, there will be another young generation singer. I admit that I don't follow the national Eurovision qualifying rounds, so I don't really know who's taking part and what determines the selection. Anyway, Sanah is one of the most popular (if not the most popular) Polish singers of recent years, I know her mainly from the radio, but I know that she can attract tens of thousands of people to a concert, mainly young fans

Ok, the new championship week will start in about an hour!

Bass scores, but in a hurry The next championship week will start rather late, so I will give a warning about an hour before the start.

A little better in the Drop D version, but this is probably my limit. And Rhythm

Lead+ Much improvement, fun song!

It's possible that you have quite thin strings on your bass, on my 4-string bass I have no problems with tuning to D Std/D drop C, it's only when the tuning is really low that I start having problems.

Rhythm

Lead+ 90 achieved, but I can't imagine getting close to 99% here. This riff part with slides, hammer-on/pull-off and stretching to frets 2-7 is problematic for me. The arpeggio part at the 12th fret is quite easy once you get the hang of it, but I have some problems with recognition.

Lead scores This is quite fast, I think this is a little more than 4, maybe 4.5/5. A difficult chart to play from sight reading, I will try to improve it a bit later, the minimum plan is to achieve 90%. Here's an old screenshot from when I tested this about a year ago. I just remember this being close to GoG level.

Amazing scores! You are clearly beyond the capabilities of advanced level players, it seems to me that you easily represent the mastercass level according to championship standards. I already noticed this when you beat my score by a few percent on last week's song, which was really difficult to achieve high accuracy. Of course, you can still compete in the advanced class, but expect easy wins, which may become boring, so I recommend trying something from the masterclass

I tend to have recognition problems more often in lower tunings, so D Drop C may be important here. Wait, you can achieve 99% here, unbelievable? I played this chart once and it's really not easy, fast riffs on stretched frets, arpeggios, etc. And I don't really understand why you have such pressure to promote to the master class. This is a completely different level, even if I achieved 99% here, I wouldn't want to level up, because I know that I am very far from having the skills to compete in the masterclass.

Bass improvement

Bass It was the first time I played bass with a capo, I used a guitar capo and it worked Rather too easy for 5, more like 4.5. Diff rating 5 may cause promotions to be too easy! Here, the empty D string (blue) should be played on the 5th fret of the A string (yellow). Then it's much easier to play these mutes.

Improvements. I managed to exceed 90% in both paths, but I don't think I can do more than that.

Perfect 90%, nice! Another difficult fight with recognition, it was close, but not enough.

Yes, I saw this before but I forgot about it. Anyway, while I often agree with your ratings, sometimes, as in this case, I completely disagree and, as you can see, other participants rate it similarly to me. Yes it's fast, but the chart has rather basic chords for an intermediate level, but the speed takes it to an advanced level (6-6.5). A rating of 7-7.5 allows you to promotion to the master class, and I think this is not a chart that should allow for the masterclass rank. If I didn't have problems with recognition, I think 99% would be too easy to achieve here. I'll try to play it again when I find time and see what I can achieve.
