Re: Vertex Beta vRofl thread - post here if you qualify

Thanks everyone! And yeah I might go for a top 10 but after at least an hour break XD thank goodness for my USB keyboard that I used most of the time today, it's much more comfortable than my laptop keyboard but my PA isn't as good but hey when you're mashing comfort is all that matters lol

EDIT: I am NEVER playing VS BOSS BATTLE EVER AGAIN >_<

Thanks! It was a heck of a day. EDIT and I think I'm done for the day actually, I honestly feel too sick to go for a top 10, but again thanks for all the support, was a real accomplishment for me to get that 1 bil finally.

Icy, that 15-minute file you slapped together has been a godsend for GTS whores everywhere, and for that, we thank you.

Re: Vertex Beta vRofl thread - post here if you qualify

I'd like to give this a go some day, does anybody have any tips?
like easiest songs to whore for GT?
I was thinking whoring the opening to vRofl with autofail set to kick me before the pain starts, and just mashing that out for a day would be a good way to achieve 1b.
Any thoughts?
(Obviously not here for the VB, I just like a little enduring challenge here and there :3)

Re: Vertex Beta vRofl thread - post here if you qualify

Since you already have vROFL, the first few hundred notes of that is probably the easiest thing you could whore for an extended period of time. Next to that I would say VS Boss Battle, which was pretty kind to me when I took on the last official gamewhore.

My biggest suggestion would be to set up a nice video playlist to watch for the majority of the day, or some music to change it up. Get a series you have been wanting to watch and prepare a marathon; also have them set to play automatically so you don't lose any time fiddling around with that. Media to occupy your time is the most important thing you can have (in my opinion), and will probably be one of the deciding factors in preventing you from giving up.

If you have Windows (I'm sure something similar is on other operating systems), you can mute individual programs such as the flash standalone you might play FFR in. Check the task bar, click the speaker icon, click "mixer", and mute the program (the flash standalone containing FFR) when you have it open. If you have headphones, they might help you reduce the amount of key smashing you'll be hearing while watching or listening to media throughout the day.

From my experience, if you fight the feeling of being extremely tired, after a few hours it begins to subside and be far less taxing on you. If you are only going for a billion, you'll probably be able to make it there before you loop back around to feeling as though you are about to pass out from exhaustion later. So when you feel really tired at first, try your best to fight it, since if you do, you'll feel better for a while.

Also, it is a good idea to just change your setup to something very clustered (like asdf) and use a single hand to play. Then if you hand starts to ache, you can give it a long break by switching your hands as you play.

The opening of vROFL would definitely rack up a lot of GT. If not, you could mash FREEDOM DiVE (if you have it) or mash VS Boss Battle. I never tried going for 1bil before, but I can say that you really need to find distractions to occupy your time. Listening to the song so many times repetitively would be terrible...

Re: Vertex Beta vRofl thread - post here if you qualify

Thank you both for your advice, the video playlist seems like an excellent idea, I'm gonna use this opportunity to finish watching Higurashi no Naku koro ni Kai.
I don't have FREEDOM DiVE and mashing on VS Boss Battle seems... sorta wrong.
I know I'm only whoring for GT and pa doesn't matter in the slightest, but I just wouldn't feel right mashing it.

Unfortunately my headphone jack is broken, so to counter the sound of mashing I'm gonna either find a decent set of speakers or swap to my laptops keyboard; which has a pleasant muted click, rather than my preferred noisy old usb keyboard.

Luckily for me when the server hits midnight it's only 5pm here, so I'll be able to have a big sleep in, wake up mash through the night.
I'm gonna go it on the 4th, I really wanna see my name on that Top Daily, All Time ladder

,Wish me luck

Re: Vertex Beta vRofl thread - post here if you qualify

I really have no doubt in my mind that you will be able to do it. All it takes is some concentration and being able to not be bored throughout it(which watching something or listening to music will do the trick for) and its done All i can say is go for it, and im pretty sure you will be able to succeed :P

Re: Vertex Beta vRofl thread - post here if you qualify

Talk about enduring... My hands are starting to hurt already and I'm only at 40m...

This is going to be a long day.
