WOOT No. 1 on CoY in XH3!

Up to 5th overall in the league - this has made my day!

Yay, up 6 places in the 3rd division.

4th place in Bad Reputation surprised me. I just played the song, then submitted it first time. I like how my note streak is actually higher than the two guys ahead of me.

11th place on COY no surprise. Still can't even 5 star that song (once I do, I just need five-six more songs in the 7th and 8th tiers).

14th on HSB! I really should learn to use Star Power better.

5th on SCOM was another surprise. I feel I could have done a little better, but the deadline was approaching by the time I got round to it.

Overall 7th ain't so bad, considering I just entered this for poops and giggles. If I keep things consistent though, I'll never get higher than 7th (so far, both weeks my total score has been in the 170 range).

holy shit! first in XH3!! wtf is going on?

i'm amazed at the differences in bad reputation scores. my gift is being able to downstrum really fast (counterbalances my suckiness alt altstrumming) so that part after the first chorus boosted my score.

fuck you CoY.

elx - thx for not assuming i was a sandbagger. i guarantee my week 3 scores will prove how not good i am

fuck you H18.

^^ This.

4 songs this week, and 3 of them I've never managed to pull a 5-star run on. I do have an FC for radium eyes coming into the week, but OftR 0wnz0rz me completely.

Oh, well. I'm just hoping to pull the 5-star for H18 and get myself one step closer to my eyeball. Maybe we can get Carry Me Home, Trooper, and Laid to Rest next week and I can be totally fucked.

Strange, I need 4 songs to get the eyeball too
The Trooper and Carry me home are two of them, I'm about 10-15 thousand off from the 5 star run
And then how did you do physcobilly freakout?
Laid to rest, just try and star power the part where its just the red/blue chord in a stupid pattern
that gets a lot of points
but make sure it ends in time to catch the green and yellow ridiculously long star power sequence, the other place to rack up points is the chorus, it plays it 4 times total, 2 times with the single notes, and then 2 times with the chord notes, rack up a 4x note streak from the first 2 times, then star power the next two times, I believe when I 5-starred it that I only used starpower only 2 or 3 times, but most of the times my bar was full
I'm sure someone can get you a better path, but thats mine
Oh, and i still can't 5 star crazy on you, I was 7 thousand away on my 7 place finish from last week

What did it for me on PF was the realization that this:



has the exact same strum speed as this:



Once I understood that, I think it only took me another 3 or 4 runs to get the 5-star. When I first tried playing the song I'd speed up for the part, which leads to misses and lost multipliers.

Wow! I figured missing week 1 would really kill me, but I placed 3rd overall for week 2 in XH3. 17th overall. I am very pleased. I thought I was terrible, but I guess I'm not that bad. Of course, I'm still trying to figure out this squeezing strategy. I'm very happy with the song selections this week. I've only played all of them once before, should be interesting.

Follow this path. for your 2nd activation you might want to use it after the alt strumming part but before the 3rd sp note, so you can have a combo.
i got 110k following it on my first try, so its quite good.
If that doesnt help, this will

I wanna know how Bo (devision 3) did so well on his HSB score, with only 99%... I don't think thats even possible.. unless it was the last note or first note.. =P

I missed the 3rd note! That's it. Got all the SP phases but no squeezing or early whammy.

Must have played that song close to 50 times but always choked on the FC, since I had already fucked it up in the first few seconds I was much more relaxed for the rest of the song.

Got the pic on my phone if it's needed........

Lol, no no no. I'm just messing with you. I figured it was SP.. I alwas missed one SP phrase, but all was FC'd it. I'm done playing HSB for a while.. >_>

Edit: Hey, I know this has probably been answered in some help topic, but what exactly do you mean when you say sandbagging? Still sorta new to ScoreHero.. Thanks
