AAA training
I just got 100 total AAAs today! (I finally did Alpha Helix too. That song had been bugging me a lot - I've had a black flag for like two weeks and tried a few times almost every day, and since 1000+ people had gotten the AAA it was one of my worst songs on the level rank.)
I wouldn't say that 100 is THAT impressive by itself, but the interesting thing is that I think I'm learning to hit notes accurately in a way that I never really did when I was playing Stepmania. I'd always play songs that were relatively difficult (say 9+ in the FFR scale), so my goal was pretty much to get AA (or to pass in the case of much harder ones). But now that I've started spending time on FFR, I'm playing a lot of easier songs, and instead of just comboing the patterns I'm really focusing on hitting them accurately. It surprises me how much my attitude towards songs has changed - I'm paying more attention to reading irregular steps carefully, I'm listening to my arrow taps a lot more, and I'm having more fun playing slower songs. My PA is also a lot better than it was a month ago. I think this is a pretty interesting effect; has this happened to anyone else when they first started caring about AAAs? |

Re: AAA training
your logic makes no sense, stepmania was the time to play easy songs and go for AAA's to improve your MA
the only reason i see that you think FFR has improved your timing is because FFR timing is off and you want to whore AAA's to get known, if you had just played easier songs on stepmania your timing would be much better than it is now congratulations on your 100th AAA nonetheless |

MA isn't very fun to improve if you are just playing with yourself Last edited by qqwref; 06-21-2008 at 03:06 AM.. |
