r21 Accomplishments! What are you proud of?

I think I played better today than I've ever played before.


The Knife Party track. First tristar in a long time. Forthcoming in Tsunamix III.


Absolutely terrible chart.


First S on a 14! This never gets any less tiring, though.


Cool breakcore track by Detest, also coming up in Tsunamix III. Pretty easy 14 but it's still rough.


Adraen, Tsunamix III. This is misrated, I decided it's a low-end 14.


Yeah, this isn't a 14 at all. It's a mid-high 13 at worst.


This isn't a 14 either but it might be if you raise your arms and shout WOOOO along with the music. Which I did.

I also passed DIDJ PVC on video but apparently I didn't take a screenshot. I'll upload the video later. Fantastic chart.

Altogether that's six 14s in one day (five if I'm not counting Starwolf). My old record was two in a day.

Absolutely terrible chart.

Blasphemy!

Starwolf is fast enough to fail if you're a beginning 14-block player who's better at stamina than speed. It's a low 14, but I'd count it as one.

I can't pass Fire Fire or Strike of the Ninja and those are both footspeed-oriented 13s. Most of the footspeed 13s I can pass end up in the 70-80% range. So if Starwolf is really a 14, it's both my first footspeed 14 and a higher score than I get on most footspeed 13s, which leaves me unconvinced.

Starwolf is a 14. A really really easy 14 like 30 pieces of Silver or Lord of the Thunder (or Mermaid Island), but a 14 regardless.

Strike of the Ninja just takes practice; it really isn't that hard once you get the technique down. It's more of a stamina/footspeed chart than anything.

[SteveReen]

There are 17s I haven't passed, and I've passed 18s. Difficulty is sorta nebulous around the borders and it becomes subjective to what you're good at. Sustained runs like in Strike of the Ninja are likely a weak point for you, as opposed to the quick bursty stuff in Starwolf. I'd say Starwolf is a 14 just because of how fast it is; 170 BPM 24ths are really fast haha.

I guess that makes sense. 170 BPM 24ths is 255 16ths and that's definitely on the higher end. But if stamina is my strong point, why would I be good at bursts instead of sustained high BPM runs? That seems really counterintuitive to me.

Fire Fire is harder than like the universe so

strike is cake though; you might just be straight

but as for why strike is harder for you, a stamina player, than starwolf...maybe you're just good at flailing through the bursts

My guess would be TYLR's; your legs aren't used to speeds near 210 and as such probably flail around too much (which won't hurt you much in Starwolf since most of the runs are facing one way pretty much). My advice would be to watch your technique, and as for all footspeed, just keep trying. You'll get eventually.

None of you will believe me when i tell this, but i was walking to the arcade (at the mall) from work (it's about 10 minutes so i always walk it). As i'm cutting through the mall parking lot, i look left at 1 car and manage to find 2 REALLY gorgeous brunettes goin to town (making out pulling their tops off and the whole bit.) I only managed to see them pull off their tops before i walked off and decided to Beast 3 13's back to back (they were on the easier end of the scale but nonetheless).
Almost starred both Beast and the harlot (gensokyo midnight) and Bat country (Gensokyo midnight again) and as a finisher i got an 80.xx on Get Stronger.

I'd say today was a good day all in all.

This is by far the best I've ever read on this site.

Who knew that voyeurism made you better at ITG?

New chart. Pretty happy with this.


SDE finally.


I got robbed. =[


Another reworked chart. No cmods, no cheating. :3


All five excellents were in the verse, lol.


Not a great score thanks to the pad w/o, but look at the rad gfx I made for this. I think I was forced to play this once back in 2008, otherwise this is a ~SiGhTrEaD~.

[Xynn]

Holy shit those GFX, hahahahahahahahahahahaha

[kiwizoid]

Played more than lightly for the first time in two weeks... thought I was going to be terrible because it felt like my legs had gone soft and I thought they'd atrophied, but now I'm thinking they were hard from knots that never eased up because I was always playing. So, uh, whoops.

Only my second time playing this chart. Not a great score, but I'm just happy to have #1 again. Really need to clean it up though.



Ended up playing this one twice in a row... had a lot of crap the first time (all my fault) and knew I could do better, so I gave it another shot and barely made the 98% I wanted. I'm guessing the NCs were probably my own fault, which sucks because that just means I could have done so much better... guh.



Didn't screenshot, but also got above a 99% on Perfect Exceeder from Mudkyp's Mini Pack (I think? One of the Mudkyp packs at least), with an FEC and a miss. I think it was 19e/1miss, which bothered me because my best is a 99.15% with a clean FEC. It could have been so good...

And after looking at those screenshots again, I'm thinking that something should be done with the top text on our machine...
