Rocksmith 2014 Championship Week 105

[albatross213]

 

Ummm... That looks quite a bit different than what we are playing.

 

At least some of it's because he's tuned in drop D rather than D standard. I'm not going to do an in depth comparison between the video and what's in the tab, but except for added nuances and using different fret hand positions for some things a lot of it was pretty similar. Definitely some differences, though.

Back at work this week after a month off sucks! I haven't had much opportunity to play this week but this is my best so far.

Thanks @@albatross213, never too late, unless of course the weeks out and @@Mortalo's started the next comp early... The video of the other version might be correct, I'm sure it is, I have no reason for doubting it, but nope. I don't like it. Mainly because I've spent 30 hours committing the charted version to memory :(

[Mortalo]

@@NoonyDeloony This time you won't be able to blame me :P

I don't know if you all realized that, but since week 100th, we changed things a little bit. Previously it was always me selecting songs and starting new week, but because we hate pathology we changed that. Now every week other Organizer selects songs (still with use of random.org), and it's not always me starting the week (though I'm mostly always cappable of doing so). So now you can't blame me everyday :lol:

 

@@IAmHiccup Welcome!

[NoonyDeloony]

Sorry @@Mortalo, I had noticed the change but obviously the wound is deep... Apparently "where there's blame there's a claim", maybe I can get compensation for loss of point earnings? I'll spot you a few quid of my payout if my case reaches a settlement ;) as an extra apology for my misdirected pointy finger of blame :)

[Mortalo]

@@NoonyDeloony If you want I can level you up to MasterClass right now :) :P :lol:

 

Advanced Rhythm - 96.24%, 444 streak

I also played bass, but forgot to take a scrennie.

 

And yes, my high e snapped...

[Molice]

@@NoonyDeloony Sorry. Im a bit late found this cover. I knew, that fret positions there is very bad, and wrote it in SSL. Yesterday, i surprised and inspired your score and  began practice (in other fret positions some of parts), and found yet missed notes and a few wrong notes. So i go to youtube for details and found this cover. It is not original cover, original there, the author has made himself at the hearing  and seeing live.

[Rodman]

@Noons - nonono, you are right... if something is wrong always blame Mortalo ;) in first place....

 

 

No, honestly - song selection is a timeconsuming thing, really a lot of work - one should not do that more than once in a months.

 

 

Btw.... i am really curious how you are gonna avoid level up this time [emoji48]

Great playin!

[Molice]

@@Rodman It easy avoid, bcs of all this notes in right positions. total  rate max 6,  and this way that is in chart with bad position yes, more hard not it is not clear advanced class :)

P.s. And yet we must add in rules if rate of  a song low for class, so no level up.

An example:

 beg 1- no lvl up

int 4 - no lvl up

adv 7- no lvl up

[NoonyDeloony]

Thanks @, it is undoubtedly a nicer version and I am not one for complaining about how "correct" a tab is as I think most musicians are prone to using artistic licence to embellish and add their own personal flourishes as they see fit :) as for up levelling, I might regret saying this, but I have noticed some leaps of progress in my playing of late... So, @@Rodman, do it! :D

[NoonyDeloony]

I take it back, just seen @motives post, I'm happy to stay in advanced until I prove myself worthy enough of MC :)

[koffein]

Another great week. I am always looking forward to next weeks challenge - meanwhile I spend my time playing some old school Boston... :-)

 

 

Still struggling with recognition when I re-tune. I switched to new and thicker strings just to pass for Rhythm guitar.

 

Here is my results for guitar:

 

Rythm - 92.77%

 

 

 

Lead - 92.4%

 

 

 

For Bass I survived one more week on MC. It is a very quick and long one - my poor fingers. The red "x" is from the middle section, to fast for me at full speed. The octave jumps was also tricky, but I either pulled it off, or tricked the recognition engine in Rocksmith.

 

Bass - 94.82%

 

[missis sumner]

No improvement for me.

 

Yesterday, my imbecile brain decided the advanced bass song needed to be played with fingers, even though (and I hadn't realised) I'd been using a pick all week.  I managed to equal my score, but no better, and it took quite a few goes.

 

Tonight I realised I'd played it with a pick all week, and although I only managed to equal my score, it took fewer goes...

[Nacholede]

I made a trip into space, playing The Final Frontier on it's entirety! I like this album a lot, it has some cool songs like The Man Who Would Be King and of course, When The Wild Wind Blows! (The album has 10 songs, of course, Rocksmith counted the ones i skipped to play WTWWB)

I think my hand's going to fall off after putting in quite a lot of time playing this week :) Here's the results of my efforts.

 

Firstly, a proper score for MC rhythm - btw we need more people to level up and join me, come on guys and girls you can do it !

MC bass: will it be enough ???

And some old school Metallica !

@@fiddlesticks - It's better if you spread the fun out throughout the week rather than saving everything up for Friday. Anyway, here's my response.

Oh, wait. Wrong one. You interrupted me when I was trying to go for 100%'s on the official Maiden songs. (For the record, I f'ed up exactly one note before each chorus).

 

For real now:

http://i.imgur.com/tEXYwrE.jpgDamnit, wrong one again! (Missed the very last G on the riff after the solos. So close).

 

Maybe this one?

http://i.imgur.com/dzpxMZu.jpgYour move. I think that's 10 misses: 8 in the riff under the first harmony, 1 in the riff under the second solo (which is far to easy to fool Rocksmith on, though I tried to play it honestly), and 1 chord in the outro.

[fiddlesticks]

@@albatross213 that's some damn impressive scores ! congrats.

 

Took me forever to get up to speed on one section in the song, spent the last few days trying to get from 90% to 100% speed, only just managed it this evening and even then it was a bit of a fluke.

 

Still got a few hours in the morning though :)

[NoonyDeloony]

Happy Halloween! :) and thankyou @@Brooklyn_Sounds for testing my mettle... or should that be Metal? :) \m/ Rawr!

Best I could do in the alloted time. I can get it better, but it would take longer than a week. I'm a bit disappointed as I felt like I had the song down fairly well minus the second part of the solo and one other part that kept messing me up that shouldn't have.

[MonstaS4]

Much better! No more pesky crosses.

Never got around to tackle the dualist any more, but since my last score never got registered I'm posting it again.
