I always find it strange/frustrating when my score gets progressively worse as my accuracy increases :lol:

I love playing this, Frips!  Top track! :)

Excellent work and enjoyed to play it - my fingertips are hurting and I had some song failed as I "learned" it in score attack and forgot to hit esc before the third strike :D Kudos for the 95 @@MaZtoR - you're getting closer to mc every week.

very very pleased with Frappes, Bass and i could have done better if i hadn't spent all week trying to beat my Biffy score,

 

:P

I'm new to both Rocksmith and the Championship. Here's my first post to the beginner song. I can't seem to find the right touch for the muted chords that have muted open strings. Any tips would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Pretty easy song this week but getting high accuracy is probably really hard at least for me since rocksmith is a bit sketchy at recognizing chords on bass. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4zebKHkDZhIamJXUWVNZTZ3T0E/view?usp=sharing (mc bass 98,18)

I am omw to work in half an hour. I have played Biffy a few times and I think my pick -ups batteries are about to die. If I can pull off a play through I'll post it but I don't think I'll make it before I got to leave for work... soz @@Shiroo :) been AFB all week *weep* (there again for all I know you might be taking the piss :D .)

New week incoming!

wanted to see Biff in action ! ^_^

I haven't been able to practice at all the past few days, so my progress on Animal Style is pretty minimal, to say the least.  I'm even having to rush just to get this screenshot up.  Anyway, here it is.  

 I've run out of time, nothing to show for my efforts either not even a score  :( See you next week. :)

Some comping scores on bass:

 

Comping 1: 100/246/991,580

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4MOGIxRhGf0Q2lsd0NCai05Wkk

 

Comping 2: 95.72/80/289,876

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4MOGIxRhGf0S3EydzNGekN6Ymc

 

 

Comping 4: 98.75/125/775,312

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4MOGIxRhGf0MExPaE56YTNTZ2M

 

Will Comping 5 automatically be added from last week's Championship?

 

Thanks,

@Mortalo  - regarding Adv and Mc diff:

Thx, Exactly!!! had the same feeling:

 

...

 

I really did struggle on the diff rating of Adv and MC Lead this time.

Both are 7.5 :)

 

For myself NoMeansNo would have landed in adv and Fripples blues in Mc but the other votes said the exact opposite and nomeansno we had w103 and it was voted 8 then.... so be it.

 

We can argue througout the week anyway :)

 

... but for the first time put the convincing existing votes over my testing impression.

 

As it looks no matter - very good competition on both classes anyway.

 

Congrats to all (especially all that kicked me hard) - cool scores, everyone!
