Played it a few times in 70 and 80% speed, then used tabexplorer to learn the riff outside RS and came back and tried RR at full speed a few times. I must say it payed of a lot. Im still fumbling around some but i should be able to fix most of that in the next week. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/SilverBrigde85_zps1f2b9a96.jpg Edit: It seems that i cant keep my hand away from the guitars today. Picked up my acoustic and practiced the riff for a bit. And then i wanted to see how much that helped. So here is the new results. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/SilverBrigde94_zpsf0dec265.jpg I have to say i am quite happy with going from 61% to 94% in just one afternoon. :grin:

It will be interesting finding out if i can make this sound anything but awful. First try. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/Silverbridge61_zps68e13f6e.jpg Second try http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/SilverBrigde73_zpsb389226c.jpg I need to spend some time in RR before i try it again.

I use guitarbots to learn acords on my aucustic. Works great with the mic in my headphones.

The beginner song this week was really tricky, i liked it. If i had more time today i would play it some more. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/therobotwholostitshead89_zps0773d164.jpg

Only a little bit better accuracy and a score that sucks. But i manage to get platinum, and i usually consider that a win. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/poursomesugaronme9477_zpse88b0ed1.jpg

Nice score pottsy. It looks like you should try out the masterclass songs.

Getting better. But i need to practice the solo. I kinda suck at bending. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/poursomesugaronme9435_zpsac0e3f76.jpg

Played it a few more times. managed to survive my first attempt in score attack. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/poursomesugaronme9194_zps81807d1b.jpg

I guess i have not played this song since i was an absolute beginner. My former score was a whooping 20,2% Not with 100% DD but still. First attempt now gave me a 82% http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/poursomesugaronme82_zps06a601b5.jpg

This will most likely be my last post this week. its midsummer and in Sweden that means im going to get so damn drunk in a few hours that i cant stand up tomorrow. This weeks song was really fun and challenging to play, and im happy with my results. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/FullsteamSpacemachine8885_zps033b8192.jpg

Thanks for the non DD version @@Shiroo. I find it easier to pinpoint my weaknesses in score attack. Todays update. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/FullsteamSpacemachine8788_zps4806fb90.jpg Edit: tried the intro riff a few times in RR. I can manage 90% speed with only down strokes but only 85% with alternate picking. Still i feel i need the alternate to be able to handle 100%. How do the rest of you pick this riff?

New day, new strings (10-52) and a better score. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/FullsteamSpacemachine86_zps38ff4f2e.jpg

I tried to use the toolkit. several times. I even updated my toolkit but it still wont work.

Why is it impossible to remove DD from Full steam? I need my easy score attack. :-P I really need to work in RR with that starting riff. Its to damned fast for me. But i am starting to get along with the rest of the song. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/FullsteamSpacemachine83_zps573529ca.jpg

Got a 66% on full steam. This is going to be a tough one for me, but it looks like a fun one to play.

Got it up a bit more today. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/JokerandtheThief8974_zps4b448036.jpg

First song of the day. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/JokerandtheThief87_zps42570a1d.jpg The hammer-ons is not a problem anymore. But the damned 10-12 and 15-17 are. Guess ill have to order top heavy strings for future drop d songs.

Today it went ALOT better. The cords are still all over the place. Sometimes they register and some times they do not. But the hammer-ons where a lot easier today. Went from 77% to 84% in 4 tries. Looks like i can stay in intermediate yet another week. :smile: http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/JokerandtheThief84_zpsd71e9018.jpg

Got it up a bit today. Still having problems with the hammer-ons and with the cords. im still recuperating from 6 days of junk food, alcohol and concerts. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/JokerandtheThief77_zps88ea2e4b.jpg

Looks like there is a chance ill be dropping back to beginner next week. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/JokerandtheThief_zps7d4bb980.jpg Anyone know some drop d cdlc that are easy on the fretting hand? Would be fun to play those while resting.

Its just horrible trying to play drop c with 10-46 strings. My accuracy jumps all over the place. Im going to Sweden Rock Festival tomorrow and staying there until Sunday so i wont be changing them. Megadeath is so out of my league i cant even play through it. Might give cranberries a few tries later. It looks a bit challenging with the chords and the string skipping.

Today trooper did not agree with me at all. So i played a bit of Firewoman rhythm instead. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/FirewomanRhythm90_zps45e6df13.jpg Edit: I could not stop myself from playing it 3 more times http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/FirewomanRhythm9354_zps81719ad4.jpg Edit 2: You put my MC Rhythm score in lead.

I really need to practice in RR. My arm is dead after just 2 plays. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/Thetrooper84_zps564ca734.jpg

Just 2 more plays and all of my right arm hurts. I really need to learn how to relax while playing. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/Thetrooper81_zps7b664518.jpg Edit. I really liked Fire woman to. Buts its a bit hard for me at some parts. (but ill play that to anyway) http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/Firewoman74_zps3489d5a3.jpg

I have always been a bit afraid of fast song, like most Iron maiden. But i guess its time for me to grab the bull by the horns. My old (pre custonsforge) results for the trooper was at a whooping 33% completion. My first try now got me 67% and my second is this: http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/Thetrooper_zps02999580.jpg @ Keep up the good work with the Championship. We lots of people that love what you do.
