Lots of ReAAA's, lots of Flags, lots of new AAA's, lots of Bullshit.





















up to SN AAA #87

So Chris and I are having a little bit of a competition with the Trancemania pack. I am trying to make the pack mine but he wants it too. Fair game!
 
.....but the pack is still mine!


With the pads being so freaking stubborn, I say this wasn't too bad



@AndyBurns Great job on your scores. I haven't learned how to play DDR yet

Darn, I was so close!


This is my best score on this chart so far
Even with the pads being a bit faulty
Played this on my first set... my warm-up set


Another awesome improvement on this chart
Didn't even have my ITG-playing socks today, but damn, I'm loving my progress


It seems I'm only able to FC K-Pop for now


Eh, I attempted it but I lost it at the second stream. That shit was way too long.


CANDLES! SO MANY CANDLES AT THE END!


Why not a 12 lol
Played this with Abbye (Rose)

Thanks! Abbey you should definitely give it a shot. I haven't made a cross post yet but i'm holding a DDR SN/ITG2 Officials tournament at my place on the 29th I'll text Chris with the details

(like the DDR announcer)
WH-WH-WH-WH-WH-WHAT?!

You're holding a tournament soon? That sounds so awesome man, would I be allowed to come?

Of course you are going. We'll figure out a way to take you there.

I like this SR


Practicing my FA


more FA practice


Farthest I've ever made on the 14-minute Kirby medley. I remember not being able to even pass the first long stream and failed at like 10%. I failed at the stream after the water part. The foreground gimmicks are fun lol.


I got past the 24ths successfully for the first time!
However, the first two miss/wayoffs are pad errors, and they were both P2 left of course. Other than that, all the other wayoffs were me lol.

Yay!! I passed my first real fake 17. (Subaru in the Wind)

Played it on a whim on my third set. It is a lot easier than the expert chart. Now I need to work on passing a legit one

Finally got some scores to post for you guys! 

As you all know, the machines been out for about 2 weeks due to a crash but now it is functional and ACME players can start posting again! The stage is still a little bit off since we got new sensors. The modding still needs work to fit the sensors sensitivity so the scoring is not to great at the moment.

Had a semi-beast session today with Abbye! Passed 3 new 17's, but the scores aren't that great due to the stage not being 100%! Once the stage is at its peak, I will replay these and post a better score for you guys!

Here are the scores!

Most of the Misses/Decents/Way-offs were from the pad unfortunately, but an acceptable score nonetheless! The song is amazing and the steps are super fun to play.


Again, all the miss triggers are killing me! Still another 17 under my belt, but I know I can score way higher on these. 


More of the same issues. This chart was pretty fun but streaming at 204 BPM was not! 

sexy score... yes I'll post you!


too painful
but i like this and I think I can try this


another pendulum 13 passed!

Thanks for fixing up the pads some more, Chris!

^ All during warm-up ^

^ This took forever to accomplish!! ^ Old record was 98.90

Improving slowly with the higher difficulty of Pump~


First pass



Improvement since last try

Played some Fiesta 2 earlier.

I also silver S Final Audition 2 with 11 greats, 1 good and just for laughs I ended the night playing The Devil single 20 which M477 recorded me failing lol

Don't give in! Stand up to him!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! @_@

Also a minor accomplishment

Made some new personal bests today!!!!

I finally got this on my third try with a few days in between. I literally was burying myself a grave and barely came back alive. I wasn't going to fail this song!!!!


This one was sight read for me. Not too bad. Doesn't really feel like a 15


Finally passed this. I had tried it once before but was too scared to play it again. I needed to stop being crappy and just play it.


@M477 Awesome Job on your quad or whatever the pump equivalence is. Been playing Pump myself but sticking around the 8's and 9's. The game has been growing on me

Meh...

@Rose - Generally 7s through 10s will get you used to Pump-style patterns (i.e. 159, 357, 1539, 3517, 1759, 3951 to name a few). The thing with Pump is that double-stepping will usually land you in a tough position to tackle the next pattern after a turn. Unlike DDR and ITG, there are many more combinations of turning other than the simple crossover. You should try to execute the turns as best you can.

To name a few, here's some turn-practice songs:
Canon D S9 (160 bpm) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B5TNQcWRceQ
Love is a Danger Zone 2 S9 (162 bpm) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qDudzgFJuY
ASDF S9 (170 bpm) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5wGkwBPWSk
Pumptris Quattro S7 (153 bpm simple spinning :3) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKFZ1Z7eXpg
*Sfxazure (Ben) if you know more, please chime in :3*

In case you don't have a USB for the game, the code to enable Full Mode is 175939571 during the song select screen. If you use a USB, you bypass that entirely. I highly recommend using one to keep track of your scores and such. (^^)b

Now onto scores:
[no screenshot] SS'd Bad Girl Good Girl D13 - I'm surprised it hasn't been done yet on the Acme machine.

Picked this via random

Overdue

Never again

@sfxazure - still no SS of Log-In S18; was too busy beasting this

NAPALM S22 used MEGA DRAIN! Sucked health from M477!

O and that was without stage-breaking too.

I am not Ben but a few recommendations I like:
Moonlight 10 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWLucwcV8qs#t=35
Mistake 11 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vq9UTP2tRws#t=10

I had some others but I guess they were removed on Fiesta 2. Too bad.

Edit: By the way, there's a US Pump Festival happening this year in LA in November. Kind of cool that stuff still happens; you guys should try to make it.

Here are some good ones:
Pump Me Amadeus S9 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ALXR_nP-uno
Log-in S10 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUCNxpvvxGQ
Interference S11 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jyxVbS3K9k

Yay


Stomach ache near the end


Second 14 ever! This one hurt LIKE A MUTHERBETCH

If it weren't for Chris recommending this and, Abbye, Allan, and Nick for pushing me on this one, I wouldn't have been able to pass another 14! So glad I could meet you guys again today

I passed Self vs Self on Expert 13 and Touch The Angel 13 but the pictures of those shots on my phone were broken

@ Kevin,

Nice work today man! I'm glad we were there to watch you beast it! Congrats on all your successes today, and hopefully you'll have plenty more to come! 

I have now passed all of Pendulum










I'm up to AAA #106
