    I'm struggling to play the muse song in complete darkness haha, definitely feels more difficult than the Smiths one. But also the muse chart is a little bit weird especially the transition from 8 to 5 and then a pull-off to 3, most definitely sure the 8 on E is played by the bassist as a 3 on A to be consistent with the hand positions for the pull-off from 5 to 3 on E shortly after. 
    Also there's a part in the song that goes from a slide up to 7 or 8 and then a quick jump to 3 on A and then back to the 14, 12, 10 on D riff. Don't know if its played like this but itd be a hell of a lot easier as an 8 on E that time around. Idk if that makes sense but anyway... its awkward to play that I think can be fixed by the charter. Might keep going with the Smiths one but not the Muse one.

    Glad to see you here! Since you are not listed on the leaderboards with a previous level, I'd say it's up to you whether you want to compete primarily at advanced (and also masterclass) or masterclass only. Your score on S2N would suggest masterclass only - nice work!

    You also asked if others will post a score on S2N...I think a few have been posted since then but I will also post one and I assume there'll be a few others as well. 

    Sweet, thanks and good luck! Yes I like the challenge of master class 🙂

    Not much (score-wise) progress today... 😞 But I've been thinking about this whole leveling problem. On one hand, I've been ruling the intermediate level for some time now. From that point of view I should get to the next level. But when I'm looking at the advanced level, it's clear to me that I can't really compete there. The top of the advanced level is often also above 95% in the masterclass level songs (as well as around 99% in advanced level). While I'm only above 95% in advanced class... now and then.
    What I'm trying to say is, that either should there be an "in between" level for people like me (and Kayteck (no offence) 😉 ) or maybe some of the advanced people should be moving up more readily (The rule of 99,5% should maybe not apply to the top levels of bass).
    It's nice to win now and then. That's not gonna happen for me any time soon with the advanced level.
    (Yes, I know, it's just for fun, and that's why I often try the advanced song out).

    On another note... I've also been thinking about the difficulty score of the songs. Maybe we could talk about the levels after the week is over... or a group of the championship managers (who do such a great job!). If the scores are lower for a song one week, then maybe it's because it was harder than usual. I noticed week 392 advanced Honey++ (Orange Coffee) had barely any competitors and rather low scores. The song was difficult 7... Two weeks before that we had Just a Girl (No doubt) where many of us (even I) had a score of 99%... also difficult 7. Ind hindsight Honey++ might have been quite a harder song than 7... (og Just a Girl was easier).
    By looking at the scores afterwards it should be possible to asses the level more correct, and thus update the song list. 😉 Does it make sense?

    I'm not English so I'm really straining my vocabulary around this note. 😛

    I see where you're coming from but I would encourage you to try harder to get a higher score in the advanced ranking.
    You're a bit of a black sheep, maybe too good for intermediate but struggling a little with advanced... though I don't think your level should mean that you are consistently getting 90s the whole time, and I don't expect myself to get 90s in master class either. As the difficulty of songs go up so do the complexity of the techniques, if you notice a pattern of things you fail at then I'd encourage you to practice it and practice it, it could mean the difference of that 10% you're looking for 😉 . Finally I don't think any of us will get better without challenging ourselves, if intermediate is too easy for you then you will not get much better playing on that level. People ask me how I've gotten as far as I have in only 4 years of bass through Rocksmith and I tell them this, "Challenge yourself. When you're uncomfortable it means you are growing as a person, it's a good thing."

  4. Figured I'd do a playthrough as it's easy to cheat with songs like this. Played on the 5 string bass path.
    It gave me notes I probably should have gotten but then made me miss some notes I felt like it should have detected (maybe I was off-rhythm I dunno?) so I think it balances out, and at least it's honest where you can see where it gave me notes I didn't hit. 4th time playing the song, it's actually quite fun. Good luck to everyone else! I encourage you all to record yourself playing.
