Happened to have some spare time...

Still can't do 211 streams very well...

Random forgotten chart...

Another NM14 down!

Revolution Deathsquad...

I rose over shattered mountains blazing with power 

Okay.


Back from New Orleans and already ready to beast.


I just really love replaying this.


I've not failed a single 14 that I've played today.


Repassed with a better score! Also, that FANTASTIC count though.


Seemed like a very brutal 14, but long enough to be a 15.


I like this chart.


Oh my, this was just fucking horribly painful. How could I write such a chart?!
I barely survived, and I nearly had a heart attack because I forgot I had a quad of mines at the end and I ended up reducing my life all the way to like a sliver of grey left. Almost thought I had died right as the song ended.


So it seems I've played and passed five 15s yesterday. Still gotta get Let It Go, Showdown, The Power, and Team.

Finally full-comboed this!
And using my hands!
And not my knees!
And not bracketing!
My body is ready for SPERGIN4.


Oh my god, 173 is somehow so much harder than 174. I really hauled on this one. Glad I could finally survive this one.


I felt I should try this. This used to be rated a 16, but this was more of a long 14, and it is still rated a 15.
I'm glad I got another 15 under my tiny little belt.

I don't wear belts.

So much stamina...

Yep, and I'm going to keep playing like crazy. Who woulda known taking long breaks from the game gets you so much better at it?

Proceed to score-dump:



I wish I'd actually pass the both of these. This was the farthest I've made on either of them.


yeah


Finally. It's about time I got this one over with. I will come back to this song in a hundred years and try to break 90% on it.


I beat my first Dragonforce 15!
I didn't shove the Jolly Ranchers in my mouth, Gerrak, because I don't think I'm ready even yet. I need to be able to do it with shoes, and it has to be harder than Through The Fire and Flames. I need to really beast.


Yiss! I hope I can try the switches chart someday.


Really pushing myself, right before SPERGIN4. Although I'm doing well with passing stamina charts, I probably am not even close to ready for all the shit I'm about to do tomorrow lol.


I thought this would be good to do, since I tried it once with Bauregard and didn't make it very far.

I didn't think I could handle a single 14 today, after being so sore.

@Kevin,

You DON'T NEED SHOES!  

@Kevin

TTFATF and World Sound are both REALLY awesome passes. It took me a LONG time to get both. I'm impressed man.

@APHR
yer right, socks are the way to go~

@Andy
Thank you Andy, I just wish I can soon pass those songs in shoes, and maybe even less modded pads. Maybe even as far as stock.

Probably won't pass 15s soon because I'm sick.. I feel like this break might actually reduce my performance.

Wasn't really expecting to play ITG for a while, my legs are still sore from the 6mi hike I went on just a couple days ago, and I'm still adjusting from New Orleans weather... (?) but I did play this with Chrisco and passed it

That's about it.

Hey Guys, I haven't posted anything here in a long while. Chris and I try to take over the pendulum pack today. We played straight through but we still got to finish out those 16's.

I have a pic of a new personal best. It will look a whole lot nicer if I can at least 99 it.

@APHR
So today I went to ACME and remade the "mod log" so it would be nicer looking.
Pads are pretty damn great, but I still gotta adjust.

Here's some stuff I felt was adequate enough:


I tried this, and it's pretty darn good for getting my speed up. Also thought this was an interesting score.



Repassed these two with better personal scores, and then these totally prepared me, in terms of endurance for the next few songs.

I attempted some 15s and even 16s, but I was too sore still.
I tried Aim Burst (Switches 16) and Orbital Strike (16) but I only got "so close," which was also the same amount of work I put when I was barely passing 14s and 15s.

I hope to pass my first 16 this year.


This, I felt more confident with the D&B area of tempo.

Right after all this, I went out and ate fried chicken because why not.

Chris and I decided at last minute at 9:00 pm tonight to go to acme. We only played 4 sets but I got a new 16 under my belt at least.

 I'll pat myself on the back for this one but I deserve a kick in the butt for the excellent count.

Didn't expect to play ITG today, but I came here after dropping family off at the SEATAC.
Only played one set. This is the closest I've ever gotten to like FCing this song, or anything past an 11.

More practice.

Also gonna start taking my scores in landscape, it takes up less vertical space on the forums..
Looks nicer too. Not like some stupid kid sharing his dance game scores on his phone.
i mean what

baby powder or not?

Iori, I've let a lot of your trolling slide but it's getting to the point where you're just singling out a person and picking on them. Please dial it back just a little, and, to be more specific with regard to this particular case, please lay off of APHR.  Calling out a problem that you see, however sarcastically you may choose to do that, is something I'm typically willing to let slide - but this last post crosses a line into antagonization and I'd prefer to keep things at least sorta civil.

Thanks.

it's a valid question, i really don't see the issue with my post.

Iori, you already know the answer to this question, but I'm gonna explain it anyway. The issue with the post is the fact that you've never felt the need to ask this question before, and you singled out one specific player - one specific player you've been very openly butting heads with. Not only is it clear that this is not an ernest question, it's also targeted specifically at one person with whom you've been actively trying to start shit.

If you had come in and called out every stamina player, that would still be obvious trolling, but it wouldn't be PERSONAL obvious trolling. If you wanna say that you think that the use of baby powder is lame/illegitimate/cheating/whatever, that's a tired, old argument and nobody is gonna change anybody's mind, but go right ahead.  Don't make it personal, though. 

You may think that this is a silly/arbitrary line to draw, but the truth is I've been getting a LOT of messages about various troll posts lately, and I need to do something to ease  those concerns.  Asking that people refrain from directed, personal trolling is pretty much the bare minimum I can do, so I'm stepping in and doing it.

Working on my doubles...

Timing is awful, but it's an A; I've always had a lot of trouble with this chart (D19 in Fiesta 2)

Troubling chart (D20 in Fiesta 2)

More trouble (D20 in Fiesta 2)

♪ I knew you were trouble when you walked in, so shame on me! ♪

Played some ITG with Nick today at ACME. To my surprise I passed a bunch of 11's  ! Big accomplishment for me since I couldn't pass a 10 a month ago. Not posting any screenshots because the scores were nothing to brag about

@M477,

Nice work Matt, Doubles anything is extremely demanding, major kudos! I need to practice PIU and play with you guys! 

@Tmangamer,

Congrats Taylor, you sir are pushing your threshold. Soon enough, you will be beasting 16's! Keep practicing, and keeping pushing yourself. After all, LIMIT DOES NOT EXIST! 

ew 16s
i do not want to see another arrow for a couple days x_x
or a stair step

No pain, no gain! GET BACK TO WORK! 

wow i don't want to jump the gun and make any assumptions here, but it seems like a small concentration of users are the most vocal about things they dislike.
