Re: Jumpstream on Pad
Near physically impossible, and with pad playing you need to keep stamina in mind. Even just 8th note jumps all in a row can get exhausting if played for long enough, let alone jumpstream. That being said, I have seen pad players play jumpstream files on a few vids (wish I could dig them up), but they don't play in a normal manner. Instead they use the heel and toe of each foot for two arrows, so you end up with a lot smaller motion and the ability to play certain amounts of jumpstream. Shit's really hard though and I'm not sure how many people have done this.
Anyway, for 99% of pad players songs with fewer jumps are more fun largely because it conserves stamina, but also it's just fun and more natural to execute regular stream on pad.

post-dumps abstractly represent the existential nihilism that the song invokes in the listener with negative space, evoking the ephemeral nature of the mind - the journey of stepmania begins in hope yet soon becomes corroded into a dialectic of futility, leaving only a sense of dread and the unlikelihood of a new synthesis
