A (surprising) Megadeth improvment:

 

@@meelo   Thanks, that worked.  Not sure what I was doing wrong.

 

@@meelo My Int lead score only looks impressive because my last rhythm score got mis-entered as lead.  While it was enough to win rhythm, lead belongs to the esteemed @@ZeroPingNZ.

Fixed.

Some second runs, the first runs were embarrassingly low. 

 

Ahhhh!  The arpeggios!  My nemesis!

 

The only first run that was reasonable.

 

To those updating the leader boards, I did not play the Megadeth song yet.  i see a score posted there for me.

 

I thought I did not make any mistakes on this, game does not agree.

Fixed...but you better get to playing it :)

Damn you @@meelo for picking an Int path with arpeggios all the way through! I dunno if I can be arsed to practice, I barely hit 80% on 75% speed lol
