An easy flashing 7 is Xenon. It's the only one I can pass. Other than that, Colors euro, Symbolic, and maybe Memories would be "easy" ones.

Anyone who wants 3rd style and can't find it, contact me. I haven't seen 4th for ages though.

As far as my IIDX skill is concerned, the best word that describes it would be "s'alright". My first 7 was route 80s, but that song is so damn easy it didn't give me a sense of accomplisment. My first real 7 was Presto (one of the first songs I tried with HS3. And I passed it. Not a coincidence.)

Since I have no friends with IIDX (though that will change soon) I have no idea how to gauge my progress. I have a few fluke 7s (Five Regrets, minimalian) but there are a bunch that I can consistently pass (Holic, Blueberry Stream, Absolute).

Tonight I FINALLY PASSED THE SAFARI LIGHT 7. Now if only I could get those @#*$% drumrolls at the end of G2 down I will have passed all Light 7 songs on 6th Style. I also passed VJ Army 7key, hooray....

On an interesting side note, though 4th Style is the hardest Style to start playing with, it seems to me like most of the songs are easier than later songs (except for the Anothers, of course. *cough* Mr. T *cough* Luv to Me Ucchie *cough* Kamikaze *cough*) I passed Voltage and Empathy, both 7Key, on my first try. I can pass era (step mix) but not era (nostalmix)...oh, and Sana Mollete Ne Ente (BLT Style) is the best remix ever.

*jumps on the IIDX bandwagon*

Finally actually got a chance to play IIDX, although I played it a while back, I wasn't really too good at it.

First time I played it was a few months ago, I played nothing byt 5 key, and this was all 4th style. I tried Light-7 ONCE (Twinbee Generation X) and failed miserably.

Last night I played again after finally getting the chance, and this time played 6th style. I played a bit of 5 key, and decided to try Light-7 once again, to see if I could do it now.

I don't know if it was the new style, or the constant playing of 5key on a sim using a keyboard, but I found it a bit... not as difficult this time around. I can actually read the notes!

Anyway, this is my first "accomplishment" post. V Light-7: 100%, B.

speaking of accomplishments, i finally have The Strong Jaeger 7 key down to passing it every single time with a B!! that is currently the only 7 key i can pass. For awhile I was beating Flowtation and Presto 7 Key, but after not playing them for awhile, I seem to have lost it.

It's odd, after I started playing 2 handed, route 80's was like the 14th 7 star that I passed, even after passing GOB (though I could only pull that off once). I guess it just depends on what you're good at.

I also passed R5 (finally) and Vj Army and I ended Minimalian with a 76% 3 times in a row. Don't you love it when that happens!?

I used to think Final Countdown (MTO Crybaby Style) was dj taka's worst song. But after trying to pass it so many times, it's grown on me. And I finally passed it, too! I'm down to 6 songs on 7key 4th Style...6 evil, evil songs.

Oh, and about minimalian...

1st try - miserable failure.

2nd try - passed.

3rd try - somewhere in the 60% range. O_o

I thought 4th style was the easiest for 7key. It's the only style where I could beat all of them. X_x

But, congrats, keep trying, you'll get them all soon! None of them are ridiculously hard like The Safari is... so I'm sure you'll get it! =D

Would any of you have the video got Gambol? A friend of mine wants me to prove how retarted Japanese law shows are.

Japanese law shows can be retarded, but then there's the video for Schlagwerk.

Don't get the wrong idea, I love Schalgwerk's video. ^^

4th is the hardest style......for beginners. It's got some comparatively wicked 5s and 6s on it, too.

Hijacking the subject, what's your favorite Tran video? My pick is either Starmine or stoic.

Saiyajin · Posted: Sun Jun 29, 2003 8:25 am Post subject:

I thought Stoic was kind of bland... it just had some monk guy sitting down, and Tran copying him. As for Starmine... I don't think I ever really sat down and watched the video... I'm victim to that for many on 6th style... too busy always trying to get a higher grade. =D (I downloaded the video for Stoic). I'd say my favorite is Beautiful Days. That song is just great... and the video mixed with the song really made me want to get IIDX(well, that and the Denjin J video, Blueberry Stream, Colors, G2(ah yes, G2 was a great Tran video), Frozen Ray, comment te dire adieu, etc...). So... yeah, I like that one the best. I want to see some videos with Lilith in them... I don't think I have yet. Actually, I don't think I've ever seen Lilith pop up in the actual game... and she barely has any pictures relating to her on the G2 Arts.

She's my favorite IIDX character.

I always liked the video for Reincarnation. G2 was awesome too... but Beautiful Days is kinda boring. Good song, though.
