obviously that was a sweeping generalization, and you are in the vast minority. _________________

Awful comparitively to some. My score is in the 70's
Started trying out doubles more and I'm passing the 10's. I'm having severe problems with Incognito, Infection, and Hardcore of the North though.
Bend Your Mind makes you bow to the TV, but you probably knew that. It's pretty funny actually. _________________

I was joking about that one. Needless to say, your post is a little (extremely) suspicious. You've been trying to pass an easy 7 (solina h) and an extremely hard 10 for a while now (kye), and you just pass them both at the same time?
....right. _________________

Back at full strength and kicking some Expert 9 buttocks (And some assorted other stuff). First some observations...
Lemmings is supposed to be easy to score on, right? THEN WHY CAN'T I GET ABOVE A 76 TO SAVE MY LIFE *&(*&^(^%(&^%
Tried Oasis (Expert) kinda randomly. Failed with roughly a 60%.
Caddywhompus Intense = (EDIT: I realized it doesn't matter what speed I set it at beforehand, since the marathon itself has speed mods. Silly me.)
I tried some other marathon, Energy Normal I think, that went only slightly better. 23% New Record FTW! I failed at the beginning of Tension when I was like "Have I even played this on Hard? *arrows come and the combination of 1X + mods causes me to immediately fail, but not before I realize the pattern* Oh yeah, I have..."
The good stuff:
Driving Force Classical (Expert)- 82.75. HUGE improvement over my first socre to the tune of 14% or so. This can mainly be attributed to the fact that my pad decided not to maneuver itself practically under the table in my living room this time. Additionally, step-jump-step-jump-etc still hands me my posterior.
Kiss Me Red (Expert)- 94.03
Oasis (Hard)- 93.18
Remember December (Hard)- 91.50
ROMeo & Juli8 (Hard)- 95.85. *mutters something about his pad and autoeroticism* This was the first and best of several attempts at this. The second time I FCed it but only got a 95.7X, and the third time the pad acted up again and I just walked off about 25 steps from the end.
Tell (Hard)- 93.92
The Game (Expert)- 84.04
Random stuff I'm proud of:
I discovered I hadn't done some of the Expert 9s I thought I had. This was a sight-read:
As was this:
This one officially took me about five tries, though three of those were interrupted for reasons unrelated to my play. Namely, my neighbors' 1-year-old was wandering about the room and I didn't want to hit him. I also said goodbye as he left in the middle of another attempt. I eventually got it though:
That leaves only Liquid Moon for Expert 9s, and I can play the "ITG PS2 lists it as a 10" card if I really want to.
The obligatory "lol im so not ready 4 this" pic:
And the stars.
Hard * #10:
And my first Marathon * of any kind, on Party (Normal):
I'm definitely excited that my accuracy is improving, if nothing else. _________________

Good job, I knew you were struggling with some of the harder 9s earlier so you've been doing good.
Here's a challenge. Start 90ing the 9's whether they be Expert, Hard or Medium 9s (yes, Pandemonium is a 9 on Medium). That will defintely get your technical skills up and improve your rhythm. _________________

Last time playing at the arcade before I go home for the summer. Three months with no ITG2. So sad.
Slight improvement over my previous score.
Sight read.
Whoo.

91.11 QoL
Has any else experienced difficulty in scoring on this song? I can't for the life of me raise this up any and I'm FC'ing it, hitting no mines, and holding the holds. Is this song offsync or am I just lame at it? _________________

Yay, my first challenge! *Sorts the 9s on Groovestats* Wow, I'm gonna be at this one for awhile too. I presume Liquid Moon counts as a 9 for this particular challenge (Such that it is)? _________________

Yes, Liquid Moon is a 9, and no, I don't expect this to just take a weekend or something _________________
