I remember 2016 when this went up and I haven't improved very much in two years. but I know I'm much better.

I'm barely a 5 out of 10 in lead and rhythm now in 2019 and back then I was 3/4 out of ten.   Also I've spent maybe 300 PLAYING hours on Rocksmith since then, why Im  I so slow in learning?

Small improvement

Small mistakes are costing me!

3 Mistakes.  :(

An idea maybe would be to have more awards for the end of year winners, because it's quite the achievement and It might entice more players to participate.

Is this how its going tobe?  Im going to get 1 note better each time i play it?

Seems, I need to spend some time with Triads.

Hi guys!

 

New acuracy...

Tricky picking pattern on this one.  My brain likes to play the wrong string.

 

 

Small improvement.  really need to RR the solo.

Rhythm is easier, or I'm getting to the point of moving up?  @@Bounours, I need a push this week, let's battle!

 

I think you are getting to the point of moving up, but let me a little time and I'll be a worthy opponent...
