Life is tough in higher levels 😅

I know we are here to get better and hone our skillsssss... stiiiiiilllll, SPI points are cool.

How come I pass a game (get to the next level) and do not get any of my 3 best scores, which to my understanding, is what awards you SPIs ??? (this screeenshot was taken right after I passed Compressionist from 36 to 37 😥)

Same thing a few days ago with EQ Mirror from 42 to 43.

Any insights ?

It wasn't a compliment. That just confirms it's worthless.

I don't know that I would say it is worthless: it does help incentivize one to comeback and practice to sharpen your listening - but clearly (like with most things) if you understand how it works you can game the system to maximize your SPI progress.

The only way to refine one's listening is to be attentive to the silences

Honestly, can’t remember the last time a score of 95 would have medaled 😄

Who cares? Stelios is actually capable of achieving 102, a score I’ve unfortunately never managed to reach. In that sense, I, too, was lucky. Congratulations to you and all the other players. Keep having fun!

@Helmut Mair how come you always reach 101 yet haven't made it to 102? You don't arrive at 101 with a few extra lives at least sometimes? I'm pretty sure you can do it, my friend. :)
In my case I don't always make it to 101. I used to reach even 107, but that was with the slower speed that I happened to be playing with so it doesn't count. With the normal speed I made it twice to 103, but I struggle to reach 101!

Music Spot: TOPIC by Hamsini & Smahi Kaushik (PHOOLZ)

A 16-year-old picks up her guitar and asks her 13-year-old sister what the song should be about. The sister says TOPIC. They laugh. Then they actually write it, in 15 minutes.

That's how TOPIC by Hamsini & Smahi Kaushik (PHOOLZ) happened. Hamsini takes the first verse, Smahi takes the second, and both are about the same thing: life as a book, and finding the topic of your own story. The line at 1:48 sums it up. Maybe every page we turned, was leading somewhere strong.

Give it a listen and read the full Music Spot feature: https://www.soundgym.co/blog/item?id=topic-by-hamsini-smahi-kaushik-phoolz
