Fuck yes, 18 year old me would be real proud. I couldn't stand squeezing this song back then, I sunk a lot of time into it and never hit the 2nd activation. Today I finally hit it for the first time, and it took probably a dozen times to do it and then get these ticks. Doing reverse ticks was still annoying and awkward despite not having to whammy at all beforehand, imo it's more difficult than the 2nd activation. Used 88ms video lag.
EDIT! The xbox 360 authentication cable to my guitar broke. I purchased a replacement part which should be here in a few weeks. No GH videos until then. Hopefully the next video is a Black Sunshine 1st. I found an extra 200 points on the 4th activation that takes advantage of Time Signature and video lag (but it's frame perfect still :]), but hitting the 3rd, 4th, and 5th activation squeezes in one run isn't feasible for me right now. I previously tried for a few hours with no luck. Hope to post again soon, I'm aiming for earlier-November due to the cable shipping and then having the absolute utmost pleasure of grinding Black Sunshine :D.

Got 1st overall on Easy on ScoreHero with a 297,666, then I got this insane run 1st try after going for the reverse ticks. There should be at least 16pts left in the 3rd-to-last activation, the rest of them looked great. Im so happy with this especially since I was expecting this song to take a few days to grind, but it only took a few hours.
Ive been putting a lot of effort trying to get into shape on Expert, progress has been going really well.")

All squeezes are slowed down at the end.
Originally filmed on 8/22/11.
I hit all of the squeezes 1st try of the day, with no warmups or restarts, which was pretty crazy. The ticks were really bad though, so it took another hour and a half to get this score. This chart is one of the really fun ones in the game, so I didnt mind doing this at all. I didnt think Id get close to 3rd place before I started playing either.")

If the 1st and 3rd activation squeezes arent possible (which I believe is the case), then this is optimal. Theres an extra 200 in the 2nd activation that I hit, and you need big squeezes on both ends to get it. This took a couple of hours to get. My 7th new GH5tar is overstrumming now, so Im back to my old GH5tar, as you can tell from the strumming. That means Im back to not going for any of my remaining FCs until I get yet another GH5tar. The lack of working GH5tars is getting me a little irritated though, so I dont know if returning it for another one is even worth it anymore. I bought out all of the ones in my area, and I have to travel at least 45 minutes to find more of them.
If this isnt optimal, then in the words of LemonMerinque, There will be a blizzard in hell the day this score is beaten. Ive tried the 1st and 3rd activation squeezes so many times with no luck. Those squeezes cant be possible.
12/03/11 Edit: This score is optimal. If anyone wants to try to prove me wrong, good luck. You wont be able to.")

After I could hit the 2nd activation hopo squeeze, it only took two tries to hit the last one. That blue with the sustain is impossible to squeeze, debrs path has it wrong.")
