Default Connections

Okay kiddies...enough of your speed-tests...I can network-install 2-3 gigs worth of RedHat Linux from a nonlocal server at an *average* speed of 10 MBytes a second. Also, the entire connection issue is irrelevant...your connection does not determine how fast FFR goes. The song downloads once (that's what the little meter counting up to a hundred is) and then it plays back locally. Any delays come from having a (relatively) slow computer that can't handle too many arrows onscreen at once.

As for Mikey, I think people have a right to challenge his scores, and it'd be convincing for those people if he showed an in-play movie, but given that his score isn't *impossible* like some of the ones on the hiscores, I'm inclined to think that it's legit. FFR is easy to get the hang of, and if you'd been playing DDR or SM for many months, it's quite possible to be good at it.
