Hi Rodman, the scripts seems to not have picked up my rhythm score (advanced, sabaton, 99 and something). Is it something expected, or a bug? Maybe it's ignored when >99?

Not whining or wanting a correction, I play just for the fun and for a shared experience so I really don't care but if it's a bug maybe it can bother others in the future.

Also, the default overdrive tone on the Coheed and Cambria is too saturated only for me? Can't really distinguish single notes! But not an issue, I will use some other tones.

Rodman probably added you to the masterclass in rhytm so you couldn't win in the advanced class.

Hi, seems like you are assigned to Masterclass in Rhythm path, therefore you cannot win Advanced.

It's not the script this time 🙂

Can i just say as a pretend zoomer millennial who often pretends he's more millennial than he is actually not even gen x but more and more often straight up boomer... the quality of life improvements from such a simple thing as this make me realise i do actually need to learn to f**ing code, and even saying that ul be laughing, cos its probs just some fairly standard excel formula!! i look forward to reading ur upcoming post on reddit about automating workloads 🤣

and @Mikson thanks, it's great for me (sorry, I'm a developer so I tend to always give feedback on suspect script behaviours!)

and that's great to get feedback as i am not a coder, more like a hobbist, so big possibility for scripts to go rogue 😉

I want to join the championship. Rhythm path materclass. Here is todays score:

I neglected to screenshot my test runs so had to start fresh yesterday...

Classic, very atmospheric song - definitely on the challenging side for beginner but it's slower tempo and a repeating pattern so seemed like a good beginner challenge:

Another classic, and this one has such a great rhythm and feel on the bass:

Unbelievable live performance...I get totally mesmerized and swept away by the music on this one and suddenly 10 minutes has passed:

Alex Turner's vocals have really grown on me over the years and I really enjoy his work on TLSPs. Challenging but manageable bassline:

Hello! Here's my score:  Advanced lead

I'm not sure about the link and did I do it right..

All these songs are weird to me.  But its good to be pushed outside your comfort zone.  Its one of the best things about the championship for me.

Not going to have my bass the rest of the week so hopefully this score is good enough...1 note from perfection:
