Sophister

A nice morning session today. A couple of improved songs, and a couple not very well played. C'est la vie.

Following yesterdays theme, Sophister is usually applied to such as spend their time in verbal niceties only, sententious or frivolous meanings, delusive expressions. A quibbler or cunning hider of his real thoughts, opinions, and designs.

- Thomas Dyche's New General English Dictionany, 1740

Recently Played

Recently I have played the following songs out of the 196 song arrangements I have been learning.

Rocksmith 2014

Love That's Gone by La Sera.

Paint It, Black by The Rolling Stones.

Losing My Religion by REM.

R U Mine by Arctic Monkeys.

Cold Company by Minus The Bear.

Stay In by Jaws. I beat my previous overall score with 21.2%.

Wasteland by EarlyRise.

All songs played

This is the full list of songs that I have played on the two versions of the Rocksmith game.
The two versions of the game have different methods of calculating the scores. The original version just had the score, streak and percentage. In Rocksmith 2014 the score was dropped from the main results, and a mastery and an overall result was added.

The overall result can be over 100%, this occurs when a song is played in master mode. In Master mode, the game hides the notes you are expected to play. When you manage to successfully play the song in master mode, you have learned the song and should be able to play the song alongside a band or backing track.
