this got me 119K (3-3-3)

3SP - Use immediately (whammy) (misses SP4)
3SP - Use at 9th Y note (whammy)
3SP - use at Y sustain (whammy)

hope this helps

Thanks a lot Mrseb

I managed to get 120xxx with this path.

4000k more than before!

i got 121k with a 2-2-2-3, and no squeezes.

1) activate on first BY chord (skip SP #3)

2) activate on next BY chord

3) not quite sure where to activate this one, as long as it's before the next SP. probably the closer you can get to the next SP the better.

4) activate over next blue note, but im not positive, get it as close to then end of the song as possible.

this path is kind of sketchy, i did it all on a sightread without looking at the notechart, so im sure it could be tweaked a lot.

Thanks igcrush7. I got 121K with that method as well. Well actually, 121,009. I'm sure I could get a little bit better too.

According to my theoretical calculations after much fiddling around with activation points, a 2-2-2-3 path can be better than a 3-3-3 path by a difference of 860 points. Hmmm...
of course, this is strictly on paper so far...
