Puppetz

PUPPETZ

Puppetz is the nickname of an already legendary Hero song pack maker in the FoF(Frets on Fire) community.
Much isn't known about him, besides a forum avatar with him in shades. Also he's from Finland
He has fretted more than +400 songs to date and isn't stopping just yet.

The article is relevant since Frets on Fire is a very popular game and his fretting work is the best and it should therefore be easy to find the best via a reference on the Frets on Fire article to this article. I have tried a lot to answer why this article needs to be here, but I can't figure out Wiki's reply function

The last being his most recent, biggest(105 songs) and most difficult pack to date.

Most people who fret songs for this game are known for either picking something too easy or trying to make something way to hard and overcharts it.
Puppetz is different, he chooses only the hardest of songs to make and makes them all in sync and mostly without any errors.

He has also made several "how to fret" tutorials to spread his wisedom to the many fans of the game and to get them into the fretting business as well.
