As Hiryuu pointed out to me...

That's a 10.

I dunno if my efforts on DDR: Mario Mix are going to be as impressive to you all. :\

You kidding? I'd be impressed if you did WELL on that thing. XD

But seriously, I know you do at semi-decent on keyboard, but it's a whole nother story on pad.

I got my first Heavy AA today! And it was actually a "legit" AA, as opposed to the automatic-AA-for-full-comboing-the-song that the home versions also give you (I had 1 good, and 1 something else).

If you're curious, it was on The Shining Polaris in DDRMAX, which I believe is a 7. Incidentally, it was on my final stage, meaning I got to try the wonders of the Extra Stage.

I failed about 20 steps (Not seconds, STEPS) into it. Oh well.

Also, I think at this point I may need to start altering my technique to pass songs much more difficult than where I'm currently at (anywhere from 6-8 depending on my mood).

MAX 300, 1.5x, Reverse, Dark right? Yea if you're ONLY AAing 7s, I don't think you'll do very well in keeping up with an insane 10 that MAX 300 is. Very stamina draining...and if you don't have it, you won't pass it.

EDIT: Make that MAXX Unlimited because I bet you meant to say DDR MAX 2.

EDIT 2:



#97.

No, I actually did mean MAX 1, so it would've been Max 300.

And it's 1.5X Reverse...not sure about dark. And yeah, forget keeping up with it, I barely COMPREHENDED what I was seeing by the time the arrows were down where I had to hit them.

Oh well.

Right. Now that I've finally got a chance to hook up my hard drive, I can post what screens I have. 12 of them as well, which is surprising, considering that I didn't touch StepMania until Sunday afternoon. Anyways, here they are:

:: ACT v2; Challenge, 1.5x
:: bbblow; Heavy, 1.5x
:: Club; Heavy, 1.5x
:: Forever; Heavy, 1.5x
:: High; Heavy, 1.5x
:: P.P.R.; Challenge, 1.5x
:: Party in my Pants; Challenge, 1.5x
:: QQQ -Bounce Connected-; Heavy, 1.5x
:: R8U; Heavy, 1.5x
:: S.O.S. (The Tiger Took my Family); Challenge, 1.5x
:: TGTMN; Heavy, 1.5x
:: What Do They Know; Heavy, 1.5x

I also tried playing around with various other modifiers, like "dizzy", "boomerang" and such. I have to add that the latter is, well, evil Just trying to figure out which arrows you need to press, and which still need to come around another time Dizzy isn't that much harder to deal with, since the arrows simply spin in place.

As of right now though, I need to end this post, as it's 30 minutes until 5:00, and I need to finish up what I'm doing

I did give that new simfile a try, and managed to get an "A" on Challenge, with no modifiers on. I personally didn't like the song itself as much as the different version of Love Love Shine, but it was still decent. Now, to sum up my playing of StepMania last night, I'll just say "Goodbye 1.5x, hello C400" I decided to try some songs I found too hard to do before, and as a result of that, I've got quite a few screens today that I'm proud of. As per the usual, here they are:

:: Ai Chu Seishin Survivor Max; Challenge
:: Cradle; Heavy, C400
:: Dogura; Heavy, C400
:: Dokudenpa; Heavy, C400
:: Eight; Heavy, C400
:: Hell Scaper -Tokkankouji Mix-; Edit, C400
:: Hell Scaper; Heavy, C400
:: Hero (Happy Grandale Mix); Heavy, C400
:: Holy Orders; Heavy, C400
:: Hyper Boundary Gate; Heavy, C400
:: neoMAX (Full Version); Challenge, C400
:: Presto; Heavy, C400
:: Ride On the Light (Hi Great Mix); Heavy, C400
:: Sakuranbo Kiss; Heavy, C400
:: Satan's Theme; Heavy, C400
:: Scorpion Fire; Heavy, C400
:: Stem; Challenge, C400
:: The Famous Polka; Challenge, C400
:: The Glass Prison; Heavy, C400

Quite a long list As for what I think of the songs, Stem is absolutely awful, to begin with. The song is the thing I don't like. The first "interruption" completely ruins it, if you ask me. Of course, you likely won't know what that's referring to if you don't have the song, so hopefully someone does. There's a second interruption in the song as well, but it fits in with the music somewhat. As for others, the first Hell Scaper picture in the above list could be better, but I'm happy with it for now. The last 5 or 6 seconds are the death of me nearly every time. The rest of the song is very possible, up to that part.

The above are the only things I can think of to say about those songs right now, so for the time being, I'll leave it at that

Shit...that just put Karadur over too many people going on C-mods now.

I'm pretty sure you just beat up myself and DahrkDaiz at least. I also screamed 'HOW THE HELL?!' out loud looking at Dokudenpa.

It figures I would've forgotten a couple of things yesterday First off, even though Dokudenpa is listed by that name on the song selection screen, playing it in Winamp and opening the "File Properties" box shows the same name, then "Poison Air Wave" in another box I suppose it's better to go by the song name you see in StepMania though. Next is Hero (Happy Grandale Mix). That isn't the same version of the song that you'd find in the actual game (4th Mix, according to a page I found with google). The difficulty of the song is harder, but I think the banner and background are the same as the original.

Now, as for screenshots, I've got the same amount as I did yesterday. There are a couple AA's, several A's, quite a few B's, and one C. The one I got a C on was another one of the songs where I was just happy I was able to complete it, as I was barely hanging on at the end of the song

Another thing I should let you know before posting links to the screenshots is that I changed the noteskin for a change of pace last night, so you're going to see a mixture of Note and 8Bit in the following screens

:: Absolute (Rock Guitar); Heavy, C400
:: Csikos Post; Heavy, C400
:: Drum Machine; Heavy, C400
:: Eyes of Flame; Challenge, C400
:: Fire; Heavy, C400
:: Fuego (Caliente Mix); Heavy, C400
:: Guillaume Tell; Heavy, C400
:: MaxX Infinity; Challenge, C400
:: PARANOiA Survivor Remix; Challenge, C400
:: Prophetess; Heavy, C400
:: Quasar; Heavy, C400
:: Riviera Battle Theme; Challenge, C400
:: Slam; Heavy, C400
:: Somebody Like You; Heavy, C400
:: Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious; Challenge, C400
:: Talespin; Challenge, C400
:: Tension; Heavy, C400
:: Triforce Majeuere; Heavy, C400
:: Upside Down; Heavy, C400

First off, I realize the filename for Talespin has "heavy" in it, and that's because I didn't realize I'd done it on Challenge when I renamed them. It's nothing too noticeable, but it can't hurt to clear that up. Also, I've got 3 different "versions" (they're in different folders) of Quasar, as one came in the Keyboard Megapack, one when I downloaded all of Toph's simfiles, and one that sounded interesting enough. I'm pretty sure that screenshot is from the one in the Keyboard Megapack group, in case it makes a difference to anyone. Next, Prophetess is the song I barely managed to finish, if it wasn't obvious already If you're able to play it through to the end, you'll likely know what I mean. The only other screenshot I have something to say about is Triforce Majeuere. I've got two versions of that song, one done by DukAmok, and the other by Zounder, I think. The above screenshot is DukAmok's version.

That's about all I have to say on the above right now, so for the time being, that's it

One hand, and that's what I've used since I started playing FlashFlashRevolution More specifically, I use three fingers of my right hand (I can't remember the names of them, but the three middle ones ), and sometimes my thumb and little finger, if there's a situation where I need to use them.

I tried playing with two hands a while ago, but I didn't do very well. It's a pretty significant change compared to what I'm used to, and I'd rather not work through getting better again

Next, I got to reading the various text files in the StepMania folder last night out of boredom, and one of them said something about easter eggs. I haven't found anything easter egg like in any of the themes (with the exception of the Batman logo in Techno Fiend 3), and searching for "stepmania easter eggs" on google gives me a couple pages that say something about the toasty being one. Are there any others aside from that?

As for screenshots, I have 3 less than the previous two days' numbers on my external hard drive, but I can't hook it up today. The only one I got a chance to upload was Gargoyle, on Challenge, with C400 on, which can be seen here. The song difficulty is a 12, and it's done by Reach, and those are about the only two other things I can think of to say about it.

That's about all I have to say right now, as I've still got quite a bit of work to do here today.

Yep, that's over DD and I.

That really surprises me that you aren't on SMO then.



Hang on to that.

This new one goes into it:



You'll see why after DLing it. And Project 100 will go in here too.

Errm...

So, is the jump from 8 to 9 feet as drastic as I seem to think it is? Or am I just picking the wrong 9-footers?

Recommend me some easy ones from either MAX or MAX2 on PS2 plz.

HAHA

HAHAHAHA

Speaking of nine footers... I feel like shit right now I just passed two more niners. That weird piece of japanese writing that's at the top of the K rankings by Taka and Naoki (I can't read japanese, sue me), and (here's the big one) Dynamite Rave, which I've been working on for weeks now.

I've been fooling around with some sevens too, like I'm Gonna Get You! and Kind Lady, just as little warmup pieces.

Man, I'm hungry.

Depends on the 9. Some 9s are harder that 10s. They're called CATASTROPHIC for a reason.

Oh, C'd the Heavy on the new file I did.
