SP in Misery Business (I'm not asking for the path)

I can't seem to get enough SP for the third activation. Do I need 100% whammy in order to hit it? Here's the path I'm using

You need to have a 100% whammy of all but 1/2 of a beat (I mean you can split the leeway between sustains, but the total leeway can't go above 1/2 of a beat). I recommend strumming and then putting the whammy bar down and then put it back up at the same pace and then strum again and continue the cycle, but then again, I am using information I read because I fail at whammying.

EDIT: Wow, I am stupid. I forgot about the little breaks in between sustains and notes.

I actually don't think that it's possible to get an activation out of that. It looks like 1/8 of a beat is chopped off at the end of each sustain... There are 9 sustains, and you need 8 beats of whammy to get an activation. 1/8 times 9 gives 9/8... 9 beats minus 9/8 is 1/8 short of 8 beats of whammy (i.e. math says that the activation isn't possible). Then again, if the idea that 7.5 beats of whammy is enough for an activation is correct then it may be possible, but it would be INSANELY difficult to get all that SP because of the fast BPM.

If the engine does in fact give you an activation for 7.5 beats of whammy then it is indeed possible (which was kind of a fucked up situation in GH3 because they chopped off sustains relative to the BPM in the first measure of a song). Otherwise, it's not possible.

TL:DR you need someone to verify that it's possible because it doesn't look like it is (it's completely dependent on gameplay mechanics).

In my experience, with the sp notes not being chopped, it seems like you don't get an accelerated whammy rate. If you do, it's definitely NOT 7.5 beats = 8

Also I believe in World Tour you need 7.75 beats of whammy for an activation not 7.5. At least that is what Piso told me a while ago.
