I'd like to wonder how many of those people with top spots use easy expert? I stopped trying to get 1sts because of this.

It looks like you can easily get another note in the second activation, which is not marked on batsmak's chart. You should have a full bar from the two phrases, so the squeeze should be pretty simple.
I also get that ending 4-S1 gets exactly as many points as ending 2-3, 7950 (not counting the potential ticks in 4-S1).

Well, I went ahead and charted out the optimal path. SP activations are in blue. I didn't mark the double squeezes because it's pretty obvious where they are...There is one for every activation.
On a side note - The activations in the Chorus can be moved around, i just find it easier to activate on the 3 consecutive RB chords.

Your last activation is 2 measures too long on the chart. Also, I would recommend 2-2-4 instead of 2-2-2-3 (unless you plan on double squeezing) because it is simpler and has the possibility of extra ticks.

It's a lot harder to squeeze than I thought to earn the extra 400. I've tried very many times on the 2nd activation.

370006 is the score without the double squeezes (I think) |

This. 370,006 is the score you get with the optimal path without any double squeezes. The double squeezes on this song aren't hard to actually squeeze out, but it's hard to make the timing window not just move onto the next note with the squeezes.  371,606 is optimal, which is 1600 more than no squeeze. This means a double squeeze on ever activation. Haha. Good luck.

Wait, isn't the first activation in the 370,006 path a double squeeze? Lol I actually don't even know the definition of double squeeze.

| Got 370,006 six times in a row; hyper-speed 5 enabled, REALLY pushing those squeezes. Doubting that anything higher is possible, and if so this is really easy to optimal. Might still fire this up every once in a while to try to smash it; if I see some proof that any of those double squeezes are even possible then it is on. |

There are people who already have higher than 370,006, so it is indeed not optimal.
EDIT: Nvm, I found it. So double squeeze means squeezing in two notes outside of your SP.

Since there is another activation in the 2-3 ending, wouldn't that mean that u could get more points for squeezing (or double squeezing) both activations of the 2-3 ending?
