Late to the party, classic Gamut.   :confetti_ball:

 

 

When I first rolled this file, I was almost ready to reject it - but was pleasantly surprised to discover there was a newer, shinier version than the one I had.

 

 

Man, people are scoring mid 90s on this? I'd better buckle down and put some elbow grease in.

 

 

That's more like it! More percents where that came from.

Don't know if i get a chance to play anymore this week.  Its Midsommers eve and that means the party starts at 12:00.

[Fandaru]

I will hardly get better result than this one. I'm quite happy with it since I must play non-E-standard tunings on the old crappy guitar. Often it sounds bad even when I get the right notes, I'm not surprised that RS doesn't want to recognize some of these.

 

 

 

[ZeroPingNZ]

First attempt on SA and nailed it :) didn't even have to restart but was really relieved when the difficult parts ended :)

Just noticed that Telboy also has 100% but his streak is 725. I'm confused with the different versions, did I play the right one?

[Fandaru]

@@ZeroPingNZ you probably played the wrong one. I'm reading a comment by @Gamut where he says 

 

"They both quite playable files on both paths, but Watoosh's bass chart has extra notes and not as great a tone, while Cat's lead chart is missing notes and has really uncomfortable fingering in the chorus. So I gave each path its most accurate chart."

 

Here I understand that Cat's bass chart has less notes and it's the right one. It must be confusing if you downloaded both charts and while on the songlist in RS you have to choose one of them to play.

You just have to get 100% again in a song you have already mastered, and you just played the most difficult chart (probably), as it contains the extra notes! Piece of cake, do it!

Wish I had more time... we are going away for a small holiday, time to see snow this year  :)

[Rodman]

I´m ill, fever and headache - so only quick DHM tries i fear!

bedways is rightways now

[Telboy]

Iron Maiden is well above my skill limit and very much above my little finger strength limit, however a little tiny + and a big fat X

 

 

 

no X tomorrow and another percent i hope

 

hope you feel better tomorrow @@Rodman, did you have too much Rock ?  :P

[ZeroPingNZ]

Was tied with Hawckins for Beginner Lead, now slightly ahead :D

[MellonFarmer]

Here I am chugging along thinking I'm all great at this song and then everyone kicks my ass. You guys are good... I thought I hit a wall until I realized I didn't have to move my index finger at the tricky chord change. I still can't catch up, but I got a little bit better.

 

 

I've been working on the two tricky riffs all week and there is not much else to the song. So I figured I'd give master mode a shot. Not too shabby.

 

 

Alas, I think my pinky is done for the night. I'm not going to win this week, but I got closer.

[Telboy]

Look no X  :P 

 

 

​never thought i'd get it on my second go this morning....... but i don't think i'll get any better as this was a pretty good run for me 

[Poutzy]

Always great to play some Tool on bass

[Fandaru]

I had a horrible idea, "MellonFarmer gave a shot at his MM difficulty, why can't I try the same?" 

So I did it, first run of the day, MM Tool. Got it. It sounded really bad.

 

[johnal]

 

 

Took inspiration from Mellon Farmer to try master mode.   Not my best score, but, thought it sounded pretty good.

[Telboy]

last improvement.

 

I just had to have a couple of goes on SA

 

 

Does @@ZeroPingNZ 's Score beat mine on the Billy Talent song ?

 

I thought I was playing the right version, but the other version has more notes..... more notes = more score
