@@Mortalo try copying the link then "paste and go" works for me when I tested the link on this post and just had blank screen.

 

If you still get problems ok if I add you on steam or something and link in within steam?

Finally got 100% on left hand in master mode but didn't screenshot it! I did do a video but the sound is dreadful as in Master mode I had to twang the strings really hard to get recognition because every time I was hitting the F in the riff it was coming up as a miss despite it being noticed in Hard SA even when I was quite a bit out of time on some occasions... always the F ... not giving an "F"!  :angry: So I grabbed a screenshot from the video :) ....... it sounds soooo hideous! :( I really do like this tune though, I'm going to whip it out at parties and stuff HAH!

btw, that's not a fat lip I have, I'm just sticking out my tongue :P.

 

Just realised... can't even see the name of the friggin' song! Waaaaaah! I'm gonna have to play it again!!!!? I've had about 4000 restarts because of that damn F! :(

 

Sod it, I'm doing the bunny men!

Edited February 25, 201510 yr by NoonyDeloony

for the life of me i cant handle the transition before the solo...

I get the jitters so hard after give me my wings that I can't play at all...

 

Im gonna google how to put ice into my veins

Tied @@Rodman for Left Hand's Free accuracy, but he has a better longest streak

Accuracy =99.45%

Longest streak = 185

BTW, off topic newb question...how do I include photos from my hard disk in a post?

 

Edit - I uploaded it to Steam as an "artwork".  Is there a more direct approach?

Some updates...

@@2groggy, I use http://postimg.org/, it's free, unlimited space and it also has a small app that you can use to upload the screenshots from your PC to the server and a little window shows up when the upload is finished, which allows you to just click on the "Copy" button and it copies to the clipboard the forum BBCode to display the images like I do in my posts.

Life's been hard this week, I've only got a couple first plays.

I happen to be really familiar with this song, it gets a lot of play on a radio station I listen to so I knew what I was getting into right away. The fingering threw me off a little but I got the hang of it by the end.

Couldn't get my hand to move quick enough for the hammer-ons, something I'm going to have to practice for sure.

 

But sadly, that's the last of my scores for the week. After this, my high E broke, and I'm super tight on money so I don't know when I'll be able to get fresh strings. :unsure:  Hopefully before Motive passes me in Advanced Lead!

I've played Alt-j about 20 times since my last posted score but can't get within 2% of it now  :angry:. F@#k you Rocksmith and your random misses!

 

.......Of course there's every chance it could be the guy playing causing these 'random' misses  :unsure:

Have the same problem, last week was a lot more annoying tho.

This time fortunately its not too much chords.

 

But yes it sucks a lot, when you do the same chord 20 times in a  row, where the first 10 are correct, then 4 errors, and the rest is correct again. And yet I really can't imagine that i moved my hand.

But maybe it's really me, and i have to figure out how i mess that up :P

Yes - but if you look for example at @ or @@Nacholede or @nev ´s even first tries you c that there are about zero random misses when you master your instrument - so i suppose many of those that happen to us all the time are pilot errors.

I call it the random note ghost

He still haunts me

He's haunting me on 10,000 days

I have to restart runs like 10 times to get my first 100%

He's real

He will steal your glory

I won't have time on saturday, so I better start posting some scores before I forget :-)

It will still take a lot of time until I can play this properly...

@@Azrael Count played 74?  Awesome, score in MM for hard a song.

My shame score there :ph34r: :

Sooo...   After 3 runs on the lead int song that ended up in high 80s i noticed that i pressed the strings to hard in the single notes part. I then remembered that i changed to thinner strings last week. This is the first run after that.

I need to start listening to what i play more. I should have noticed all the sharp notes.

Another few runs.

I'm glad i screwed up a bit on the end. Don't wanna end up in advanced to soon.  :D

Count played 74?  Awesome, score in MM for hard a song.

 

Thanks! Considering I have released the first version of this nearly 11 month ago, 74 seems a low number :D

I tried advanced rhythm just for fun and I got better score than for the intermediate song... :D

So I have been reading the forums and this thread lurking >.<.  I put some songs on the playlist. then you guys got me motivated to try to get some better scores.

So on this Left Handed song I started out and got this.

Then I said out loud 2 notes >.< :*( *&^%$(__(^&%^%$   I am gonna beat this thing.

and then i got.

http://i.imgur.com/4NaCtsi.jpgOne note missed I said i give up. Then my Wife says  "Didn't  you said you were gonna beat it ?"

So  once more i played the song 

http://i.imgur.com/z7Rwe9i.jpg o.O  finally.

 

So on a hot streak I said ok tool your next. 

http://i.imgur.com/OUy46tF.jpgnot perfect but I got over my 96%  bump.

Who missed me on Lead? *raises hand*http://s3.postimg.org/4xm5ozu43/2015_02_26_00001.jpg
