Super fun day! Man, we had a lot of people at ACME that day too, can't wait for another get together!

Going to be posting another 5k run very soon, so BE READY! 

Before



After




ITG does wonders!

@Kevin

Nick needs to learn how to play the piano!!

Tell me you played Harlem Shake with the horse mask on. That would be TOO PERFECT.

o noez

this was way before SPERGIN4 or the Harlem Shake chart!

Darn.

I am going to have to do this soon

Been doing this for years

we must unite

Almost an S...almost... T_T

Choked my FC near the end... T_T

Here's me after passing Escape From Vorkuta in this outfit..


I'm so glad I finally passed this, and surprisingly broke 90! It's so ~kawaii desu uguu~ lol

Here begins the laborious journey towards getting the Pendulum Achievement, which won't happen for like another 2 years or something lol. Just BARELY breaking 90% :/ but it's a personal achievement





yay i thought this was a cool score, and probably my first time FCing this chart


Thanks to Master Roshi Allan for suggesting this chart to me. I made this on a sight-read and somewhat cold legs. If it weren't for this, I would've just been lazy and played easy stuffs.


Passed this again


OMG FINALLY I've been so anxious to pass this!

Got two new passes today.

I played Slam for the first time



and


I got my first 17 Yays!!! More work lies ahead of me now!

Way to go Abbye! Team no-foot prisons!



Working towards the Pendulum Achievement

12's have been achieved! How the hell do I keep improving?!? Could be a while before 13's.

@Taylor

Holy crap! Congrats! You are improving leaps and bounds my friend. When I first saw you play, you struggled through 9's and 10's, now you are passing 12's!

I'm going to give you the same advice I gave KLOC and Baurrgaurd, work in tightening your foot work. Narrow your stance, and keep both feet closer to the center panel. Next time we meet, I'll show you what I mean. After KLOC and Bauregaurd started working on their form, new levels of difficult became within reach for them. Keep pushing your boundaries and work on pushing through when you feel like giving up.

There are a variety of different 12's you should attempt, and surely these will help further your progression into 13's.

Try the following charts:

Eskimo (12)
We killed the rave (11)
Gravity Blast (12)
Again (11)
Call your girlfriend (11)
Fer Sure (12)
Superstring (11)
Twin Dragons (11)
Big Sky (12)
Brave King Gao Gai Gar (11)
The Logical Song (12)
Russia Privjet (12)

These are few of the songs I used to help push into 13's try them out for your last song of the set.

Not sure how to ask this without sounding like a jerk, but be assured that it isn't my intent.

I noticed that some of the recent "I passed this song" photos were done with constant scroll speed modifiers.  That is, rather than x2 or x3 or x5, they were done with things like C600.  Is that considered a valid "pass" these days?  (Mid-song BPM changes are altered by the Cxxx modifiers.)  Or is that looked at as the first step in learning to pass the song, and then once you're more familiar with it, the next step is passing it with a regular multiplier?

You don't sound like a jerk Nykkel!

Generally, the charts that are written today are straight forward streams. Most of the Pendulum and Sharpnelstreamz charts are constant, non-stop streams. We typically CMod in order to avoid having to adjust our scroll speed multiplier every time we select a song.

Thanks!   I will definatley try those when I go back next time! I think my foot movement is pretty minimal, its just the reading of the notes that gets me at faster streams. Also I wasted a lot of 2nd and 3rd rounds because i didn't know what songs to choose and ended up trying random packs, some of which had nasty gimmicks. These will help a lot.

If you're looking to build up stamina and endurance for 13's, one of the best charts there is has been around since ITG 1, but is often overlooked because it is on Hard difficulty.

Pandemonium Hard. Most draining 11. Period. Treat it with respect like you would a 12.

Don't forget the roses and the nice dinner at that fancy ol' place at the end of the block that always serves breadsticks.

It seems like the original ITG song ratings are quite harder than the custom song ratings. I barely passed Charlene expert the other day and I couldn't pass a few of the other 11's (I'm looking at you hardcore symphony). Usually its because the patterns involve lots of crossovers and mines.

Posting from Power Play...

Why are vintage nightmare charts so hard?

KA-BANG!! Another 14

@Matt,

Damn man, you a pump monster. It is to bad that I hardly get to watch you play! 

COME TO ACME AND BEAST THERE! 

Before they take the machine away! D:

I think I'll make an effort to come down and have some last moments with my beloved...

wow wow wow why i could've hit 90%


here's something Ben made me play tonight
i think i played this on my first set right after work lol
