FC=Full Combo: when you hit all the arrows in a song.
AAA=Achieving the #1 rank in any given song. Usually used to describe a PFC(Perfect Full Combo) where you hit every arrow in a song with a 'perfect' result.

If you go to the "Statistics" link up in the top menu, down the middle left of the screen are two links "token list" and "skill token list"

Tokens are hidden throughout the site, and you can find them by following clues linked to in the token list page. Generally when you've found one, it will appear as an actual token you can click. We aren't allowed to tell anyone anything further than that, they need to be figured out and discovered on your own.

Skill tokens are simply earned by meeting the skill token requirement, all of which are listed on the skill tokens page.

so that's what sight read means! thank you :3. I thought it's like people blur out their vision and press naturally without looking at each individual arrow in a song but as a whole block of arrows >.>.

To play a song well and read the arrows, that's a different story. The human mind is very complex. We learn a process called naturalization. It's when our brain 'gets used to' reading the arrows so to speak. Some people naturalize faster than others, but all-in-all everyone will eventually be able to read the arrows in songs around For Masters Only. This doesn't mean they will all hit the arrows, thats a matter of motor skills. I suggest the combination of spread or split with a load of practice and you will excel at FFR!

Hope I helped

What is Autofall?

[gabgabo]

When you go to settings and put number in boxes. It's automatic failing. Useful when going for AAA.

Thats part of sightreading. I don't know about the blurring out their vision part, but getting good at FFR includes memorizing the patterns. See THIS THREAD for a photo gallery and description of all the FFR Patterns.

[Mario Bros.]

I got a question and either post on my wall or pm me the answer cuz I probably will not read it here. Here is the question and please help me with it. Are people allowed to challenge others to a skill token song that the other one doesnt have. For ex. If I had Otaku Speedvibe Oni(which I would love to have lol) and the other person doesnt have it and I want to challenge it to him but I dont want to get banned or anything for doing it. So would I be able to challenge someone to a skill token or token they dont have? Thanks for who ever answers it for me and tells me.

Well I memorized most of the patterns. I just didn't know what sightreading meant. Because all the people who aaa / fc fmo+ songs kept on saying sightreading. I played ffr for a year now and still don't know what most of the patterns are called .

[TheRapingDragon]

Memorizing the patterns will not necessarily make you better. It's more about reactions and reflex. You should be able to relax your mind and hit in time with the music (or just in time with the viewing of the arrows as they appear). I can't remember the amount of times that I used to have arrows memorized and when I got close to a part I could never do, I kept messing it up. Try forgetting it and suddenly your reactions get you a better result.

AAHhh those screw up loops! It makes me very sad and frustrated. I'm not bad at ffr T__T but I just don't know the terms. But sometimes I think memorization helps, for example I've been practicing ehhs for a year now, and when I finally full comboed it...the PA was great probably because I memorized most of the parts.
