well if you're reviving this thread

9/2 or 3/6 (take your pick) on toybox EX (99k both times)
13 bads gamelan EX
miserably fail racing EX this is probably the hardest 40 in the game -- on HS3 I was probably border -6 or 7 with a 94k, on HS2 I was flatlined with 70k hahaha
0 goods 3 bullshit not my fault bads on high speed love song EX
consistently clear anime hero R EX, best score is 87k

i dunno other shit

i have been playing popn psp a lot but not so much CS popn cuz its all old shit i dont feel like playing anymore and my popn asc is starting to poop out :c

notable scores
Pianotronica EX 5/10 (both white and the right green button have brutal misfires very often :< )
clear demolianize ex or whatever... its a 40 though lol

demolizione is like the easiest 40 ever, haha
it was my first 40 anyway

my first 40 was Vs. Sound on a lucky random haha.  i also have blue moon sea long but yeah demolienaixnzaeee is way easy for a 40

if anybody has some popn buttons they can sell please tell me... i need the microswitches :C

Gadarina is easier that Demolizione by quite a bit.  But those two are by far the easiest 40's.

Baroque Hoedown with a 389 combo (the first 389) and 15 bads.  I don't know where that came from, as it was my first time clearing it and it's only my 4th 40.

Crazy/inexplicable stuff's been happening:

4 bads, 96k Lamento Hyper
191k Daikenkai Long EX
4 bars under the pass line on Galaxy Forest Hyper. (Weird)
Fairly close to clearing Jack EX; somehow combo'd the opening 692 (WTF??), but had 25 bads in the remaining third of the song.  The tail ~400 notes are just gibberish to me.

Also these:

2 goods 99.5k Casino EX
3b/3g Gadarina Hyper
100k Der Wald EX
97k Hyper Masquerade EX

Dark Opera was my first EX 100k!  I can consistently 100k that now, haha.

Today:
5/4 (4/5?) Parade EX
100k April Fool's song Hyper!!!!!!
100k crazy techno EX (total sightread, and it's a 34 apparently)
9/2 Daikenkai hyper.  Why is the last like, 2 measures so hard
34 bads Trauma Punk EX on extra stage, 3 bars from full.  I think I would have cleared it normal stage (lot of my bads were in the beginning), what a joke of a 42
97k anthem trance hyper

Gadarina is a 39 as of adventure AC i believe
(Maybefever?). and i cleared it on carnival CS so i guess it counts as a 40 lol.

11/10 on lamento hyper on some speed that was way too fast.  I thought I could do 850 or so bpm (I forget what bpm the song is or what HS I used, but it came out to damn near 900), but it was hard.
100k flying duo EX yay!!!
18miss arrabiatta EX, my arms moved faster than ever to pull that off.  Now if I can learn to do 6+9 with my right hand I could probably bring that down a little more...

Clear Jack EX
Clear Galaxy Forest Hyper
15 bads on Baroque Hoedown again, getting a lot more consistent at it.
Gadarina EX down to 18 bads

Failed every 41 I've tried so far.  Pretty miserably, actually.

Try mongol (aka tino's white horse).  It was my first 41 and my best bad count on it is like, 14.  It's so easy.

I feel really bad cluttering up your accomplishments thread with my far inferior accomplishments, but I finally passed Chase Chase Chase (Hyper), which has been the bane of my existence for weeks now. It's one of the few 25s I couldn't pass, even though it's FAR from the most difficult. SO GLAD to have that out of the way. 8D

When I posted that I could consistently 100k dark opera, I actually wasn't sure.  Well, now I am.  

The 1 button was on and off sticky, I promise you that every single bad is a result of a sticky 1 button.



I find this result to be even better because the 1 button stuck on the first 11 way in the beginning.  Twice in a row.  AND I got the same great count.  Tell me if any of you have gotten the exact same s-challenge score twice in a row with the same combo without full comboing it.  
On the extra stage I got a 66 great perfect (96k)



also:
13 bads electrical parade (baroque hoedown) EX (....54 goods....)
100k trance (foundation of our love) hyper
played a bunch of anime genre songs in the 20s level.  What is up with such hard shit in those levels?  Sailormoon has like, on 24th notes or something, 6-4-257-1 and I swear it is nearly impossible to do.  I think the bewst way to do it is 6-4-57 with right and 2-1 with left... I tried to do 6-57 with one hand (12ths) and 4-2-1 with the other.  It didn't work.

Speaking of TV/Anime (mis)ratings:

Dschinghis Khan - 99786 2g/1b. No idea where that came from.
The goods were in the last 2 measures and the bad was machine error; James can vouch for my 1 button needing some maintenance.

Can somebody explain how that chart could still be rated a 26 on Pop'n Fever when it was added 3 or 4 versions prior?

passed violently car!  woot!
also 100k ferris wheel, 5 goods FC moon hyper

so is anybody still actively playing pop'n?  i kind of want somebody to share scores with and compete.  i stopped playing for 2 years and now im playing again since i bought a pop'n cab.  I can pretty much clear anything 38 and under, and can clear some 39+ songs

if interested post here or pm me

I still play a bunch over at Full Tilt where there's a Pop'n Music 17. Cleared pretty much everything up to some of the 42s.

Not a good rival for me though hahaha.  i am climbing slowly back up to the 40 mark.  almost cleared holy forest ex though and its a 41.

Where'd this machine go?

It's back at Bobby's house now. No one played it other than me, so it had to go. It might come back at a future time, or in another location, though.

Lame! My house is a mile from that ice cream place now. I'd be there all the time (until summer's over anyway).

was it running a legit kit?

Yup! Legit Adventure, upgraded to legit The Movie.

ahhh i wish i could have played it to see how the legit kit runs.  i heard that timing after carnival and fever got really stupid but i havent played legit anything 15+ lol.

more on topic though
i cleared Elegy ex which brings my 40 clears up by one.  i can consistently clear the following:  Blue Moon Sea Long, gadarina(which is now a 39) and on good runs i can clear elegy.  for 39s im still having problems with most of them.  i will compile a list of what i can clear and what i cant clear next time i play. 

Try Mellow Punk/Pure from Pop'n 8. Super easy 40.
