Rock On!

@@MaZtoR ........ ouch 

 

I'm ultra careful of Bandsaws, angle grinders, lathes and milling machines...... use them every day but always very wary.

 

i hope the injury isn't to bad......... but you would beat me anyway  ;)

@@MaZtoR Take your time and then come back stronger.

Well, many of us would not even try playing in your situation. You're already great.

Score only works as a tie breaker if accuracy and streak are identical for two or more participants. So ideally it only matters at 100 % accuracy.

 

I'm confused here! My 100% spectre has a lesser score than my 99.88% spectre. Which do I use?

 

 

Ah I see, thanks.@blejusca has that one then! 

 

I wanted it to be me :( I got so excited when I got that perfect run, because I thought you guys had 1.88M, not 1.98M :P

 

This was a fun run though. It failed to notice a note at the very end :lol:

Nice attempt man!

 

It's hell of a good song to play. Just very frustrating to lose the flawless streak near the end a dozen times  :angry: 

Might have a couple more attempts tomorrow  :lol: 

For some reason this week's song just didn't get me interested in going through the effort to work it up.  I tried folks, I really tried, but it was just something I can't put my finger on.  Anyway, here's the best I could muster this week after an admittedly poor effort:

 

Lead - 69.2%

A few more runs and I broke 94%.  Your move @@Sebb!

I never doubted you buddy! I knew you had it in you. ^_^

A few more runs and I broke 94%.  Your move @@Sebb!

 

I have my snacks ready for when @@Sebb pulls out 95 % :P

Been a crazy week.  I took this screenshot last weekend and forgot to post it.  I never even went back to improve my score... Better luck next week

 

Rhinocerous on bass and I don't even care about the score

@@meelo, Break out the snacks!  @@Sebb, I think I might actually give you a challenge here.

 

 

I had no idea that Judas Priest put out a new album. I really like this track as it fits my playing style well. I don't know if I have another 1% in me. I worked on this one a good bit this week. I got a new job that cuts into my guitar time a little bit, but I think I'll still be able to fit it in.

 

 

Just starting to get used to the missing notes.

That's all I can do this week

I'm never playing this song again, unless @@Hughmonty pulls out an 88+ ;)

Thanks for the well wishes guy. Its not that bad.

 

@Angelina27  Luckily i did not hurt my fingertips so I'm not joining the Iommi club this time.  Just shaved a few mm of the side of the first knuckle.

@@Angelina27 correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this the only intermediate rhytm post you made?

@ organizers, I think my score got misplaced to Angelina's row.

heres some improvements for the weekend, it just sucks that i don't get any time during the week like i used to, anyway enough moaning.

 

very now and then there is a song i just can't get to grips with........

 

 

 

and every now and then there is a song which i know i can improve on if i just put in the time,

 

 

 

 

and it don't sound as bad as the first few tries.

ooh, big++

http://u.meelo.org/.rocksmith/week257/lead/int06.png

Nudge, nudge, not that my rhythm scores will be ignored again :P

 

It's rhythm time, first and second try.

 

 

 

Downstrokes! Remember!

Not quite 88%.

 

these improvements are not coming easy now........

 

 

 

and times running out
