Hey guys, I've been playing non stop so I've gotten a lot better since I last posted
I got myself up to expert and can pass 9s, 10s, and some 11s. I can pretty much 90+% all the 9s and 85+% all the tens. 11s are really difficult though. |

I started recording my scores for the first time today. They aren't very good, but I'll get better eventually.

Whoops, double posted. Can someone tell me how to delete a post for future reference? I can only see how to edit. >_>

I don't think you can delete posts... only mods can do that.
Yeah, your scores will get better I also see that you're a 2x hallway player, if you haven't experimented with other settings, go for it (I know you're not a newb, don't worry). In some cases, strange mods like Dizzy actually improve peoples scores on med/hard.
If your machine is really cheap, or if you can find a free one (GL with that) work on your timing with the easier hard songs, or medium songs, it'll drastically improve those 8's+.
Anyways.. I guess 2 accomplishments..
Small Increase Here
Fun song, and I didn't want to do any 16ths.. I'm not going to make up excuses for pad excellents ;_; But if the people behind me wouldn't be talking so loudly.. *grrr* It probably wouldn't have affected this much though.

Thanks for the tips OnlineV4. The machine I play on is a dollar per credit, although it is on joint premium, so it's not to bad. However, I have the Playstation 2 version of ITG, so does that have about the same timing as the arcade? At the very least, I could use it to practice on different mods. Most people I see use higher speed mods than I do, but I just can't read arrows that fast. >_> |

Gargoyle (GS): 94.11
Not nearly as good I want it to be, of course, but getting back into stamina and technique training, so it will improve soon enough. _________________

Arcade timing is apparently exactly the same with timing windows etc.
Don't take influences about using higher mods or whatever if you don't want to. Everything is done at your own pace the way you like it. _________________

Only two milliseconds? Well, at least it's not really that noticable.

Arcade may seem tighter, but I can *** 9's and * some 11's at the arcade, and I find home version the most difficult piece of poopy to score on. I think it is much harder to score on, thus, good practice, so get it anyways.
Anyways, here are my recent accomplishments:
Tough enough was a sightread, boy, am I good at getting 98.8-98.9. |

If so thats really bad of you to say someone in there 40s should play the game ... I was told it was some 14 year old kid said she shouldn't be playing... and then told me to beat all of ONV4/CODX scores I could
And I took most of your scores at Castle Fun Park |
No, I'm Trev, her daughters boyfriend -.- I'm actually ONV4.. and I thought she told you to beat ROB/CODX scores? Oh wells, naw it wasn't me that said that. Codx (Cody) is like 17-18. _________________

Alas, no new 11s conquered today. Part of it was my pre-game choice of pizza for a meal (Not the best idea), and part of it was the fact that I'm currently living life under the super cool 50% Deaf mod (I woke up yesterday and couldn't really hear out of my left ear, but it slowly got better as the day went on. I then woke up today and for all practical purposes couldn't hear AT ALL out of said ear, and it hasn't really gotten better either), and a third part was the pad generally acting up and my attempts at ghetto cleaning it only making it worse performance-wise (I'm good at making excuses, huh? Also, I <3 parantheses), but no new 11s would fall by my hand today.
I did, however, pick up a new 10 I hadn't done before.
And I improved this 10.
Here's a marathon I tried for no particular reason:
Lastly, ponder this ancient philosophical mystery: If you know a Rickroll is coming, is it really a Rickroll at all (ALSO: Like hell this is an 8)?

Cool score. The jumps in this song are kinda annoying. I always fail it at that 16th stream in the middle (the longest one in the song). ;_; |

I basically played all expert tonight which was quite a surprise. It's so weird, I haven't played like 80% of the expert charts ever.
Sightread.
I didn't screw up the crossover at the end? o.O
2% improvement.
Thank you Franco for teaching me the gallops. =D
Me trying to learn mini... :oops:
Highlight of the night - upped fom 75%. I can't beleive I broke 80%. |
