2-3-3-2-2

The third SP activation probably needs to be moved but it got me 6th, a little over 1k behind.

EDIT: As a player who doesn't use the select button, i found that for SP activation 1 and 4 if you hold the guitar up while you're playing the SP notes, it will activate and let you get all the SPs

I got 5th the other day with 2-3-4-3, though it looks like your path is a couple of notes better.

Also, after just looking at the chart, it looks like 2-3-4-2 could be better than BOTH of them (ignoring the last SP phrase).

I guess I'll find out when I get home today.

I've got 2nd (238,4xx) with a different activation point for the 4th activation, but I do think your path is better, marsupial....at least by the numbers it appears to be. I'll have to give it a try

Okay, I found the optimal path with a little help from Piso. I knew there had to be a double squeeze somewhere in the song, so I found one in the last activation, then Piso showed me an even better one afterwards.

Optimal Path:

2 - immediately
3 - near the end of the O sustain
4 - next note
2 - 1st GR chord in m97 to 1st G note in m101 (double squeeze)

EDIT: For the last activation, you can also go from the 1st chord in m89, it's the exact same thing.

I have been playing this damn song forever, and I really think it's possible to get the ticks and squeeze that last single note in the second activation. If someone can do it I believe you could get 238,670 or maybe abit more. What do you guys think?

You CAN get ticks from that last activation, you just have to activate really late.

For future reference, all the computer generated paths (thanks to Debr and his amazing program) can be found here:

I can't seem to get my score above 238,414. I know my squeezes are spot on and the last activation takes me to the triple cord. Any suggestions?
