Tips & Tricks
- Shinki, the creator of SCGMD2, said in his webpage:
“For getting a Pro, you need to: hit every command, fill every hold and NOT HIT ANY KEYS AT THE WRONG TIME.” Sigh.
- Press Tab on the Guitar Selection screen to see all of them, even the locked ones.
- Disable voice (Click on ‘Toggle Voice’ under ‘Ready’ when you are going to start a song). It’s distracting.
- You may like to have a friend to press ASD keys while you press the arrow keys.
- Play the same song till you master it. Practice makes perfect.
- Are you going for Perfect and missed a note? DON'T RESTART. Continue playing the song as if nothing happened to practice the harder parts at the end.

Avoiding lag
- Close any other applications.
- Try going to Catalonia, Istanbul or La Razza chatrooms. They tend to be the less crowded ones, then mute the chat.
- Game shows more lag on FireFox than Internet Explorer 7. However, IE6 is apparently the less-lagging one.
- Always use the default guitar. The others make strange effects when you press the keys, which are distracting and cause lag.
- IMPORTANT. This technique could freeze your computer, make it ultra-slow, as well as speed up the game NO MATTER HOW GOOD YOUR COMPUTER IS. I'm not responsible of what could this do to your computer, nor Shinki, nor the Kongregate Staff. However, if anything wrong happens, restarting the computer will solve the problem. It requires all previous techniques for avoiding lag at the same time, or everything will screw up. Works with Windows only
Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete (That key could be called Suprime, too. It depends on the keyboard). It will open the Task Manager.
Click on Processes tab.
Right click your browser's process. If you are using Internet Explorer, it should be called IEXPLORE.EXE. If you are using Firefox, it should be firefox.exe.
Once right-clicked, click on Priority.
Click on High. The slowdown starts now. DON'T CLOSE THE TASK MANAGER.
Go to your browser and start playing the game normally. Everything should be slow, except the game :)
To revert the process, right click your process again and set priority to normal.
