Unless you just quit till september i doubt itll take you that long
Neither can I man, don't worry. I think you are more capable than you think 🙂 you technically beat me last week and this week we got similar scores in masterclass song so yeah.

@ cacahuate51 i don't know, just don't feel like evolving so fast, and i'm trying my best, some things are easier for me, but others are just too hard, i don't know, i think i just like to work more in some songs than others too haha.

played it again cause @ robolechuga  had a better score than me first time 



nailed it!

Just tried it, its a nice song" But those chords did catch me, only one playthrough tho.

 

I'm kinda stuck on the racing games week playing Senses Fail and Heaven's Basement over and over again, trying to improve on those technics. I'm also stuck playing Funeral for a Friend trying to improve those damn octaves. I think i will only do another jump on my playing when i improve all that.

 

Rhythm scores

Lead scores

Score is definitely not the representation of the skill since this song is more ''Forgiving'' as in giving more time to input the chords. 90% of the song has simple chords that I learn in Justin Guitar beginner course, while a part has a fast switch chords that I didnt manage to practice.
Its a pretty relaxing music with nice synth effect, doing the chords perfectly is satisfying since any kind of mistake distort the sound rapidly.

Not sure I uploaded this score so here It Is

Hey! why my uber super bass score not counted! 😜

well my lead score sucks, not sure why. I guess simple explanation is I'm not level 4 and I dont practice enough...

I've added the song from Natalia Lafourcade you suggested @ drand  and a few I like 🙂 

 

Looking forward to next week as always!

 

 

Not great scores this week 😬 Life got in the way and I didn't have much time to play.

Are you refering to your 89% in heaven? It should be on the list now. If it wasnt before thats because i had deleted the spreadsheet and redid the scores in order to change helix from 8 to 9 in lead and 6 to 5 for magdalena bass as suggested by others. (would be nice if people would give their own ratings with numbers for each song in all weeks with a submitted score so we can average them out just to have a more balanced competition in the future)

If there is another score missing then i didnt see it in the forum? 

(since you liked the natalia lafourcade song i would suggest you to play Nunca es sufficiente by her and another group dont remember the name at the top of my head, surprised its @ Hameron   s but i guess it was in the time he wasnt doing lyrics, anyways that song is always being played in clubs in mexico lol)

 

Beginner (1-3) - Basic chords, no fast changes, easy melodies, easy solos, E Standard or Drop D tuning

Intermediate (4-5)

Advanced (6-7)

Masterclass (8-9) 

God of Guitar (10) 

(Overall song difficulty is assigned according to most difficult component).

 

Difficulty rating components:

 

- Complexity of chords

- Speed of chord changes

- Difficulty of techniques (e.g., bends, slides, harmonics, muting, tapping)

- Difficulty of single note melodies (e.g., speed, string changes, use of finger 4)

- Difficulty of the solo

- Tuning

Let me know if any errors!

MY STRAT IS TAKING THE PISS WITH SOME MISSES I AM NOT DOING 

Waiting on the new week to drop like

Just returning home. I´ll jump in and do a quick selection.
Week shall be up before we know who is Slalom world champ...

Week is up!

Why don't you add it as a playthrough?

Is there a playthrough topic? What am I missing?

When you go into any chart's comments on Ignition, there's a "Playthroughs" button between the Author's Notes and Comments. You can click on that button and then the green Add+ button.
