From the looks of the Song Stats it looks like I have a little while to go before I'm gonna be able to 5 star everything....
I just have an insane amount of trouble trying to keep from double-strumming. I have no problem hitting notes...I just hit too many of them.
Especially in No One Knows. That alternating G-GR part always kills me.

I can't hit this part at all. This is the only song left that has a major, important (and seemingly easy) part that I just can't hit.
That said I did manage to 5* it on hard w/o hitting that part at all (use star power elsewhere and damn near 100% the rest of the song) - it's tough but do-able.. On expert however, I don't think it's really in the cards to get 5* without the G-GR part.
The weirdest thing is I can hit the entire R-RB part that's the EXACT SAME as the G-GR part, just different notes. Too weird.
If I could hit this part my score would be very high (as this is by far the best place to use star power) and I'd have 5* on expert easily.
Also to OP - congrats, just completed this feat myself today - lots of work. Took a long time, but oddly enough I hit the last 3 (CfH, Breaking Wheel, TF) all in one glorious day!

Good job. Studying SP definately helps when you need more points.

Same thing happened to me the other night. I took a couple days off from it and just got that beautiful status today on my lunch break!!!
Now for expert - or suicide, whichever seems to come easier.

| still freaking impossible for me to finish No One Knows, damn that song is too hard on hard mode , i already had loads of trouble with it on medium mode, i can do it easily now though, but on hard mode i'm just flabberguested by it, i get to 30% most of the time but i keep getting in the red at the g-gr part because i don't really know the tempo, the tempo change is just too difficult for me :< |

I can hit everything but the first single green. If i skip that green and pickup on the GR I have no trouble at all. Something about the timing though if I try to include that first green I miss everything, so I tend to just skip it. and its also the same with me I have no truble with the R RB part, but I think thats cause it starts on a RB chord, not certain though. |

The only advice I can give you is to feel the rhythm and strum faster than you think. I nail every one of these notes now, but it's pretty frantic strumming. You don't need alternate strumming either, I just use down picks. It's hard to put into words how I do it, it's all about finding the rhythm though. It doesn't even have to be the right rhythm, just one that registers that you hit the notes right. |

Texas Flood on expert is beginning to piss me off. On the SP chart, it says that one spot in the beginning is essential and I've only done it right 2 out 1,000,000 times.  |

I hear that. Whenever I play it for score, I have to restart until I get that. Sometimes it takes a while.
