How many notes?
« on: July 11, 2008, 01:34:30 am »
I'm again going to try to beat the Simon Says boss and I know he is optional but this is the way I am, But I would like to know first just how many notes does he actually sing?
It's like this, if he sings too many then there is just no point me even trying as I can't remember that many without some breathing space and he does not give breathing space... Well not enough for me any way :( 7 or 8 I can just about do but no more but I would really like to have that third cooking spot  :D

He sings 8 notes in his final sequence.  That's 8 rounds each round with 1 more note in the sequence.

I still can't do it, after the first few notes I miss the next ones or forget the order because I am trying to keep Li and Naija apart grrr!

how I finally managed to cinch this one was to number the notes in the tones. I would say outloud: 1,2,3,4... etc ( I wouldn't say etc )

and then the first chunk of notes would be memorized quickly because you repeat them so many times, it then becomes a matter of getting the co-ordination down and avoiding the admonishing roar of disapproval  :'(

to help with positioning I'd be directly to the right of the beasty and a body span's length from him so the camera would zoom out comfortably. iirc I'd also use the number pad or something else, there's threads on the simple simon boss posted elsewhere on the forums where other hints are posted ( and I'm sure that I've repeated myself  ;) )

Yes you have. ;) I did the numbering too. Was still pretty hard. ;)

I've got some frisket and stuck that to the monitor screen and numbered them but that doesn't help me see them all when he flashes the lower colours. I hear the note miss the colour, and I am hopeless with notes. Even though I realised that the notes where the whole do ray me la range ::)

I also lost patience with Naija and Li and tried to get him to put his helmet back on so Naija could do the sequence alone but no luck :( I'll just keep trying and hope that I can get a bit more sleep for a few nights then I might be awake enough to see all the colours, the night before last it sounded like it was  a Vulcan bomber flying low over us at 2.45 am and it was so slow taking at least 15 minutes for the noise to die away  >:(
