Lol. Didn't realize that I lost my name. I know I had it yesterday.

[Cipher_Peon]

You lost your name? How does that happen?

I was teasing him in my post and he's letting me know he realizes that.

I'm an 87.8 on Guitar, 93.7 on bass, and a 67.4 on pro drums (61.4 on regular drums).

Not too bad.

Currently have 719 songs played. Haven't played all the GD, Lego, RB2, and RB1 songs in RB3 yet. May eventually do that.

Wow, with the new recalc (and no playing), my guitar skill went up by 1 point, bass by .1, and pro-drums by 12, and my harmony score by more than 30 to 84.9. Not bad.

The only instrument I'm not in the to 10% on is pro keys, which is good because I hate them (not that they exist, but it's the only form of Rock Band playing that I actively dislike playing).

[LesFleurs]

97.4 on Pro Drums.
High up in the top 1% on both RB3 and All songs (Pro Drums) leaderboard.

I think the “Best On” calculation weighs number of songs played far too heavily. I don’t know the formula, but from your description, I don’t know what to call it other than, maybe, “Most Played But Still with Decent Scores”. The Facebook app gives me best on Bass, whereas I agree with the rating in the My Gameplay section of the Rock Band Webhut, which gives me best on Vocals. Some data:

bass, which the Facebook app rates Best On:
skill rating 70.0 - score in top 3.1% - 271 songs - 13 gold stars

drums, which has higher skill rating and comparable score rank, songs played, and gold stars:
skill rating 79.5 - score in top 3.4% - 257 songs - 11 gold stars
(FWIW, I should have a higher Expert percent on drums than bass, as my drummer usually picks Expert, while my bassist frequently gets kicked onto guitar by less enthusiastic players who play Medium bass)

vocals, which I would pick due to the much higher numbers on skills than bass, though not quite as many songs played:
skill rating 90.6 - score in top 1.3% - 214 songs - 122 gold stars
(I have fewer songs played on Vocals because I sometimes do Harmony or Pro Keys, and I always play Expert, though I have a handful of easier settings thanks to the rare party)

harmony, which also has higher numbers on skill but not nearly as many songs played:
skill rating 89.5 - score in top 2.6% - 61 songs - 22 gold stars
(I only mention this because I got most of these scores by myself, dual-wielding mics, and that deserves a skill bonus)

I think the Best On really is "most played" or "highest total score".

[MacMog]

I think the Best On really is "most played" or "highest total score".

HMXcj said that it heavily depends on the number of songs played. I know it doesn’t just go by highest total score because I have a better total score on vocals (27,218,820) than my supposedly Best On bass (20,970,238).

So I'm kinda ashamed my legacy guitar ranking is so low (comparatively) , but then I looked at my Pro Guitar ranking and it kinda made up for it
Guitar - 89.1
Pro Guitar - 69 (dudes!)

[MattyT]

Guitar: 96.8% (Not bad for somebody who can't do tapping).
Bass: 96.8%
Pro Drums: 89.2% (Not bad for somebody who starting taking up Pro Drums about a year ago with zero actual drumming experience).

This is a really cool metric to have added into the Dashboard App.
