I managed to play ITG for the first time in 3 weeks!
I can't triple start anything anymore. At all. Fuck.

Lol, this XD

Who says u need four people to do this? Done with Phil2049 ^_^

Tried this with 1.5x speed. Summer is really fast! O_O

Tied Keby

This is still hard -_-

Night-ender

Yes, this is Stepmania 5, so this is definitely a home score. I used my pad and a chair for a bar. SM5 calculates score percentage harsher than ITG for whatever reason, so 16ex on an ITG machine is actually 99.25.

So, with the recall, this is my first Tri-star FEC in my comeback! I know it's totally not legit since it's on a home pad linked to a computer, but hey. If you don't believe that 16ex is 99.25, put it in the score calculator yourself. Like I said, SM5 is harsher

Arcade or not, it's still a solid score. Good job.

And Gerrak, stop being so damn awesome at ITG. Seriously, start wearing weights or something while you play.

PFC Mobo Moga!  Yay!
PFC fascination maxx difficult
528 combo pluto relinquish expert
FEC kagonotori (a 9) on ITG with a 97.8%  Ohhh boy...

Oh yeah, one great on D2R freeze special a couple times.  zero greats two misses once, zero greats two NGs once... this chart really isn't easy but it's totally up my alley, it's so fun.

I just passed Max 300 on heavy for the first time ever in my life. 

I realize that doesn't carry the same weight as it did back in 2001 since people are now passing 15 foot songs but I'm totally stoked.  I've only been playing for a few months after taking a four year break.  When I stopped playing, I was struggling with some of the harder 9 foot songs. 

I've also recently passed Xepher on heavy.  On PIUPRO I've recently passed EternuS, Tribal Style, and We are Loud, all on crazy.  It feels good to be moving up into 10 foot songs and to finally have one of the MAX songs under my belt.  I'm gonna try for Maxx Unlimited next.


Score-wise I did this recently:


I want to break 98.00% on it.

Thought I would share some scores. I haven't been playing much in the last month, but last I played in Boise I was AA'ing Para Respect with a full combo.
These are some scores form Dec 2011 till now.


Got photo's of better MA with SDG.






Most proud of this because I can remember a time where I would consistently scores in the mid 20 greats for a single song.

I understand your elation. It took me years to pass that song. I was so jazzed when I passed it, too. Congratulations.

Some new scores I got on Tom's machine yesterday. I swear, his machine makes me feel like pro. I don't know if it's the timing windows, new hardware, or what.




Almost a quad...


Again, almost a quad...

When it comes to DDR, I know ur pro, man! (^^)b

The first one's a lulu! XD

Oh man! This...

...was pretty tough...

The timing windows, though ultimately a very small change, do make a seemingly big difference for those of us with pretty accurate timing already, since most of the excellents we get are right on the threshold anyway. Don't get me wrong, I had 5 quads prior to the change at Acme so it's not that drastic of an adjustment, but I also quadded 2 more songs I'd had 1 excellent on within a week of the change (Little Red Riding Hood and Wam Bam Boogie).

What you should really do though is hit down-down and play those same songs again, since the expert charts are good too and not quite so simple!

I can and often do play those on Expert. But this time around I decided to do Hard mode and go for the score.

Keep in mind; I don't bar on 99% of the songs I play, so even playing Hard charts takes a decent amount of energy from me after a few sets.

Especially on Tom's machine without the modded bar Yeah I forget you're a beast even without the bar hehe

Long overdue 99s

Now, to reduce that perfect count...

I love this chart <3

*insert Wrath of M477 here* failed on the third-to-the-last step AAAGGHHHH!!!!!!

Crazy wicked mod scripting!

Got to Monkey Fingers and yeah... XD

I accomplished some things at Sakuracon this weekend.  They are not as awesome as most of the accomplishments that get posted here, but they mean something to me so meh.

Challenge Tournament Accomplishments:

-2 greats full combo on Air during the challenge where both hands are required to be on the bar at all times.  Andy and I tied for first place on this challenge.   

-21 greats full combo on Waka Laka no bar.  I know the great count sucks, but shit dude, FCing Waka Laka without the bar has been one of my goals for 10 years now!

Other Accomplishments:

-Passed Max 300 for the first time ever! Granted, I probably could have done this years ago if I had ever actually bothered to go back and play Max 300, but meh.

-Full perfected a couple of Korean Pump songs, the names of which I have already forgotten, on Crazy, as well as one on easy mode while freestyling.

You've heard my story about my legs locking up on this in a tournament once, right? Either way, I can respect your score. Nice job!

Here's some scores I got last week:

I know I can do better. And I will!


Got my 99 on this.


This was my virgin run on this song (first time hearing/seeing/playing this chart). The Way Off was the pad.


Ffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu~!

All of these scores were done no-bar (except for Faster Than).

My first time playing the hard chart. I had a blue combo for a while there!
Everything after that were complete brain farts.

Whenever I see "Dr. Bombay," Calcutta automatically pops into my head! @_@ That song is very catchy.

Only one accomplishment today:

I think this is the opposite of Driven. It starts out with an easy 9 and ends with a not-so-easy 13.

Hmm @.@ I intended to try Suko's monthly challenge today with accelerando, but turns out that I played the wrong song.. heh.

Picked up a random good score though

I have long wondered why that song is an 8 for that bridge section. If Stoic is a 9 because of Jump-Step-Step-Setp-Jump-Step-Step-Step at 155, than why not this? Most of the song might merit an 8, but that bridge is tricky.

On a different note, my foot speed is coming back in droves and my stamina is....slowly....coming back, but it IS coming back nevertheless. I passed Stupid Smile SX and Re-passed Utopia DX. First pass for Stupid Smile (Fairly new song and I'm still getting in the swing of things) and I hadn't passed ANY double 11 for 4 years, so that was some big news! Scores were atrociously in the low 80's for both, so I really need to work on my timing...as always...

2e Dr. Boom Bombay on Expert. Play this absurd chart and you'll realize why this is such a profound accomplishment XD

This is so tricky to FC.

Zach wanted me to try this. I think this chart has the best flow out of all the charts.

Sweet!

Played ITG at acme toady. Saw allan it was awesome.

Almost took Pirate Dance. Missed by 1 excellent.
Took Macarena in Tachyon Alpha 96.64 or something
Foundation of Love 97 something
92 something on Prepare for War. Not where I used to be but after not playing seriously for 5 months I was satisfied.
Watch out guys. I coming back for dragonforce.

Beasted for like four hours yesterday... Did a number of 14s, and took Air, Strike of the Ninja, and Try to Star, among other less notables. But of course the highlight was upping the score on the hardest song I've done so far and my favorite DF:



Also

Its about time! 

Canon-D Try to P.A.S.S.

Ben, it took me two years to finally achieve this.

Middle fingers up to this chart. >=D

And we'll end with a 99.
