Here's mine, which got me 2nd, 48 points away from 1st.

2-Next Note
3-3rd Y (start of measure 41)
2-Next Notes
3-Immediately (it only barely fits before the next SP)
2-1st Y (start of measure 86)

The rest is just mad squeezing.

One tweak. The 2nd activation should be directly before the 3rd yellow. If you activate on the 3rd yellow it will go over the next phrase.

What would be the total points if all activations are hit correctly?

The top score with perfect activations would get 72,001. I am 12 points away from that (71,989).

Ok make sure you DONT squeeze the second activation or you will run over the next star power phrase. just activate it a little bit before the 3rd Y and you should be ok, and hit the last note late as well just as a precaution.

The second activation is pissing me off here. You're supposed to activate on the end of the Red sustain to get optimal points. I either come out with the last two notes being an 09 or a 29. If I get the 09, I can squeeze in the Yellow, but I can never get it with the 29. With a near-optimal squeeze on the last activation in an 09 run, I wound up with 71,997. With those extra 20 points, I would be at 72,017. CPs got a 72,047, which means he's
1.) Gotten a couple extra ticks
2.) Gotten an amazing EXTRA 20 points out of the red sustain

I dunno how he does it...

I just managed a 72,021 - I had 49 at the end of the 2nd activation and hit the yellow note as well.

Unfortunately, I think that PS2 loses a couple ticks because I went from 20 over upperbound to only 12 over near the end of the song

Luckily I had a good last squeeze to make up for it (I'll need to check it out on 360 to make sure)

How can you count ticks on hold notes?

Alright I just got 72,025 which is good for 2nd right now on 360.. I did use ber zophus path but here's the trick.. you gotta hit that red sustain before the third yellow in second activation really really late, activate at the place the red sustain would normally ends if you would have hit it normally and then squeeze to the last Yellow (pretty easy if you activate as i tell you).... And if you good enough you might squeeze a few more ticks on the last activation and get 1st.

How do you know how many ticks you got from using starpower
