92.10 Clockwork Genesis (New record, wuddafux?)
82.57 Euphoria (Best home record, arcade record is 85.98%)
hurrah |
Ah, I plan to fix my cobalt flux today. I think I need to bend the sheet metal back or something cause I'm getting double steps and random crap every 5 or so steps.
What do you use for a bar at home? a chair? a sofa? a counter? I have a solution for bar in my dorm room, but I'm still figuring something out for at home. Part of the problem is I can't play in most places cause I feel like I'm going to tear the house down in an earthquake lol

I don't play with the bar, I'm strictly no-bar, except on maybe custom 13+'s at the arcade

Okay, so these passes technically don't count since they're all home CF scores, but I rarely get out to the arcade... and the scores weren't above 95% for anything, so I'm not going to bother posting screenshots. These are all no bar on my CF pad that I just fixed. It's working well enough for me to get ~400 combos, so... it's decent.
Yesterday I passed a couple 12's (REM III by Mad Matt & I'll Fly Away with You by Calimist--really an 11 IMO). Also passed some 11's (Revolutions & Midnight Siege by Mad Matt + Animal I have Become, Twilight Techno, Gotta Be Somebody, Something in Your Mouth, I Kissed a Girl, Hot n Cold, I'm so Sick). I got surprisingly far in Precious Jerusalem (14) and PsychoSocial (13). With a bar I may be able to survive the long 24th streams. I failed Welcome to Rainbow during the 3 arrow "rest" section. Once I get my Puma Taper SP shoes and maybe an arcade mod for my CF, I shouldn't have any problem with that section.
I think I need to work on getting comfortable with 16th streams above 180bpm first before passing some 14's. Also, my no bar stamina for 177 bpm stream (Heaven is a Place on Earth) isn't good enough for me to get all the way through the song. I think my problem is more technique than stamina, though.
Edit: videos for Delirium no bar and REM III no bar added from my playing yesterday: REM III: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fh_IaJSqZQA&feature=channel_page
Delirium: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTRsPVA-bKI&feature=channel_page
Infernoplex no bar may be coming soon...

Nice scores, Arving.
I played some more last night. I passed some songs such as Stacy's Mom (11), but my goal was to pass Infernoplex no bar, and I did it. I also passed Fer Sure no bar to put the icing on the cake.
Infernoplex: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJ0Qt9pDFHA
Fer Sure: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f605yCgwFRA
Next I'm going for Heaven is a Place on Earth (12), Summer Speedy Mix (13), Bloodrush (12), ! aka Bang (12), Quasar, and Welcome to Rainbow (ZMatrix ver.). All no bar, of course! I haven't passed 4 of those songs with a bar, either

Nice job on Infernoplex  that's my current goal, but my machine apparently doesn't have it, are you able to link the file for me?
By the way, you should EASILY be able to pass !, I 92'd it 2 years ago, so you should have no trouble at all

Thank you! I downloaded Infernoplex from groovestats.

Bang (!) is just kind of weird... like Pandemonium weird. I haven't tried it recently. What I really want to pass is Bloodrush, cause no one from my college (UMBC) has passed it, let alone with no bar. I'm going to get Stepmania with some C5xx mods and play it on keyboard then pad till it makes sense.

Bloodrush is a tricky bastard, once you get used to twisting your body, the only hard part is the step jumps after the slowdown.
I can consistently combo all of the song, except those step jumps, and its a hit or a miss on whether I pass or not.

haha Mad Matt could do it... and probably Calimist. Don't know enough about ThePope's no bar stamina to guess (but I know he could if he cared), and Rynker would probably heel and toe 90% of the song. 
Anyone know where I can download Cosmic Apocalypse? The download link for it on another site is down...

Bang: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fsu_0VHb-n8
Anisakis: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8WX9iPpq4k
Boss Machine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHv5IzAyEZM
The Final Hour: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=52-Zxtx-ON8
Vanessa: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aj59DbQ_gqw
Practiced Bloodrush about 10 times through on .8x speed in Stepmania. I have the streams mostly down, as well as the hands, I have the slowdown correct when under a C mod, and the hold section is partly down. It's the last 12 left for me to pass!
Summer is just... not fun. I'll probably pass Pandemonium expert first. I also have Xepher 13 to pass, though I think it may come next time.
I made it through to the 2nd stream in Air expert. I just have to get IN TEH GROOVE and it will probably happen! Oh, and probably pass for sure next time I get a bar (on a pad I'm used to lol).
Welcome to Rainbow and Quasar no bar should happen soon, as well... I just need to refine my stream technique a bit more. The streams feel awkward no bar, and they shouldn't...
From yesterday afternoon:
Twilight Techno: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4yYG2IpNgU
Forsaken Neon: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-9sCiuFbyk
Gleam in the Dark: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lc3_lT3nUew
Revolutions: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGEy_MVdBnk
Midnight Siege: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKRNXBSt0wI
Moonlight Shadow: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uE1py1z2_-s
As I said, nothing special, but I hadn't technically passed these no bar yet. Moonlight Shadow was a song I couldn't pass no bar just a few months ago. I'd say the hardest of the above songs is Forsaken Neon due to all the 2 arrow jacks.
Oh yeah, and these videos showcase my new Puma Taper SP shoes. That's partly why I took them lol. It might also be why my scores are a bit low, since I'm still getting used to the new shoes.

85 on determinator(up from low 70's without playing itg on foot for a very long time)
94 on delirium
99.47= 11 excelents on the beat(9 footer from either dancetrax or hottest party can't remember but it was on the machine)
6 on dynamite rave(some sort of edit...it was a 7 i believe i was going for a quad since i got three and a great the previous time but i couldn't hear a thing around me)
and i magically passed silikon, and it made me realize i have NO STAMINA
we'll just say that the silikon score was a pass and leave it at that.
and the best part was this was in pants with my not DDR/ITG shoes.
so i'm happy.
