So I played in a DDR tournament over the M4GFest weekend. I fully expected to get destroyed, but it didn't make watching the person who won the whole thing any less amazing. |

Mike...Mike...I think I know him (As "Spookmeister C") from another board. Rawk on.

I played in that tournament too. Incidentally, I did NOT get destroyed in the first round (Though I did lose), because I think most of the entrants (Myself included) had played the game for the first time that weekend.

So after the aforementioned DDR tournament, I decided to go back and work on my perfect accuracy on Light and Standard songs. After entirely too long, I finally managed to AAA Remember You on Light (AKA a 1 foot song).

...and there are people who can do this on PSMO. Jesus. Just stringing together those 41 consecutive perfects was a bitch and a half. ![]()

Originally posted by DahrkDaiz I had noticed this, but didn't connect exactly why they were doing this at the time. Now it all makes sense (Though it still seems like a waste of energy to me ).

Random question tat may have been answered before: I'm presuming the timing for In the Groove is slightly more lenient than even the DDR console games? |

So, playing some DDRMAX on PS2, trying to AAA some easy songs (Yes, I'm aware the timing on the console games is more lenient), 1-3-footers or so. Frustrated at my inability to do it on any of those, I move to the 5-foot Take It to the Morning Light....and promptly AAA it.
|
Okay then. So, questions for those better than me: 1. How often do even expert players AAA songs at any difficulty? I believe I saw the aforementioned guy-who-won-the-DDR-tourney-at-M4GFest (I should point out that the tournament ended up being held on metal pads using a copy of DDRMAX2 PS2; apparently the guy who was supposed to bring an actual DDREx machine flaked out at the last minute for one reason or another) AAA 3 songs; no one else had more than 1 from what I saw. Granting, these were on Heavy, but still, I imagine that there are many failures ("Failure" being "anything other than a AAA") for every successful AAA, home or arcade. Am I right? 2. What's the best way to work on PA? Should I be going back to Light/Standard and focusing on trying to AAA easy songs? Or just keep going with songs that are at about the limit of my abilities and hope it comes naturally as I get better at them? (restricted) |

I actually remember seeing him in an issue of EGM way back in the day, sent in from a reader. They didn't know the details of it at the time, though. So cool. |

Additionally, by "this", do you mean you think we'll be getting all many many songs included in this arcade release or what? That would be like "OMG i need a new pair of pants" good. As far as Fascination MAXX goes, the second player's assessment at the end is one I agree completely with.

Haha.

So, um, anyone have a single song that they play with mods that would seem to defy logic? For instance, I generally play at a speed of X1 or X1.5, with one exception: So Deep (A not-fast-but-not-that-slow-either 140BPM), which I do on X2 because it makes the last third or so much easier to read for me. Anyone else?

I'm taking it that PSM does not, in fact, count as a Max song then? |

I sorta guessed as much. Coolness, or something. |
