UG Score was implemented back in 2000 when we decided it would be cool to make a top list of all our users which is based on contributions' quality, not quantity.
We are giving points for each contribution you make to the site, however this contribution's points can get lower if other users vote low for it, and vice versa. For example, any tab with no rating earns 2 points. If average rating of this tab goes below 3, the amount of points for it changes to 1 point.
If you have a good tab and other people voted with 5 stars, you get 5 points. You can earn extra points too! Look at the chart below: This feature has been added within the last update of the site due to the numerous requests from our users.

For example, if a beginner guitarist is searching for "Stairway to Heaven" tab and find several tabs, most likely he will choose the one which indicates "novice". On the other hand, experienced player will open "advanced" level tab which he expects will be more detailed and hard to play. When submitting a tab, you can choose between 3 options.
Please note that it's not song difficulty, but it's your tab difficulty! Please be objective on your guitar skills -- if you play 3 months, most likely all your tabs should be marked as "novice". 1.
Novice - this difficulty level applies for all tabs that was made by beginner guitarists. Also applies to all generic tabs with just basic info (like main riff, simple solo, etc). Please note: if song is easy by itself, the tab's difficulty level should be set to "novice" as well!
All songs by Blink 182 must be put into this category. 2. Intermediate - this level applies for majority of good tabs.
The tab should be detailed and include all parts (intro, main riff, chorus, verse, solo, outro, etc). Guitar player should know all basic techniques such as hammer ons, pull offs, arpeggio, palm muting, pinch harmonics, etc to be able to play this tab. Led Zeppelin's "Starway to Heaven" is a good example.
3. Advanced - this level applies to extremely difficult tabs. The tab should be very detailed and include the whole song note-by-note.
The size of such tabs is usually not less than 50Kb. Involves such guitar techniques as tapping, two-hands tapping, slapping, very fast solo licks, etc. Metallica's "One" is a good example.
As you know, some bands do not use standard (EBGDAE) tuning due to vocalist's preferences or music genre. If a song your've tabbed out use alternative tuning, please note what it is -- drop C, drop D, etc. On the other hand, almost any tab can be altered to alternative tuning even if the song itself uses standard one.
If that's your case -- please let us know what tuning you have altered the song to. Please note that this field is optional. You don't need to select it if unsure what to choose.
In short, Guitar Pro is far more advanced tablature than any text tab. The difference between tablature in guitar pro format and simple text tab is that you can actually listen to the tab (and decide whether it's close to the original song or your should stick to something else)! To create guitar pro tab you should download Guitar Pro software ( ).
Guitar Pro software offers such options as listening, printing, importing and exporting MIDI and ASCII formats (thus exploiting thousands of scores on the internet), transposing, transcribing a score in standard notation, etc. Many useful functions are also available: chord diagrams, metronome, tuner and assistants.
