Inspired by @ Mikson  made time for another run.  You are correct the 6 to 17 barre part is not too bad.  In this run I played the wrong string in one part and that 6 fret F note (on B string) to that 17th fret A (on high E string) got me.

I mentioned that those far jumps on the fretboard can be problematic, but come on, you are a masterclass player after all! 

After a few attempts I did it 

And class improvement.

Ha ha, yeah.  I should be able to get it down.  I was giving my first run through impression.  Hopefully, I will have time this week to try it again.

Pretty hard for me, that part going from 6 to 17th fret was playing mess.

Yes but your total accuracy will be lower doing this
Instead, in the failed run, you get the accuracy of the portion you played

I don't think that is correct.  I thought RS uses the total notes to make this calculation.  The portion I played was more accurate than 61%.

I would say I played this similar to the score attack run I scored ~61%.   I guess we could take a song, determine the number of notes, and test it out.

This is my opinion, but you never finish the song if you fail the run on Score Attack. So essentially it's not fair against who has finished it (and could potentially have a lower accuracy because of that)

It's a tough call and there is that possibility for sure.   The counterpoint could be: I could also have run the song in "Learn a song" mode and just stop playing at the 60/70/whatever % mark and let it run to the end unplayed.   Like this:

However, this run counts?

Yes because with three crosses you don't finish the song so it's not a valid score!

Thanks for the explanation, however, this was not always the case.   To me it seems like the percentage should stand.  Oh well, not a big deal.

It does not seem like scores from failed runs are getting picked up in the leaderboard.  Is this intentional? 

This one is gonna while

Some big improvements after RR session.  However, still find this song to be pretty tricky.

Somehow got through it.  Now my rating is 6.5 to 7.   Hopefully will have some time to RR tomorrow.

2nd run seems slightly more playable.  Now I am at 7.5, ha ha

Yikes, my initial rating on this is 8 or 9.  haha

Lil' better

Hmm, looks like I played this one before and much better
