Shen's attempt to stop sucking at dancing games - Page 2

**shenjoku** · 04-13-2016, 07:27 PM

Talk about a long break. I should be getting back into this soon now that my toe is healed. Nearly broke my toe three weeks ago but it finally stopped hurting when I bend it

**shenjoku** · 09-19-2016, 10:40 PM

I'm back!

Only like 1% improvement, but pretty good considering I didn't warm up at all.

I was struggling to get 90% before. Nice

Sightread. Wanted to test out my stamina a bit. All of the misses were because I needed to wipe sweat out of my eyes and I took too long

I hadn't tried the 11 chart before so I wasn't sure what to expect. Glad I survived it haha.

Got a new 27" monitor with 4ms input lag and the difference is HUGE. I feel like I can be accurate without really trying, just like I used to

The monitor is dedicated just to the pad so I don't have to drag it around every time I want to use it, which was killing my back. Definitely expect to see more here.

>4ms input lag

Ya but is it 144hz tho bro
gimmmmmeee dem juicy hertz

**Winrar** · 09-20-2016, 02:41 PM

I wanna see more pump, it's fun seeing people slowly progress into the songs with more and more brackets.

**shenjoku** · 09-20-2016, 02:47 PM

I'll get to it :P I feel like I don't have the greatest selection of pump charts to play though. A lot of the official charts are dumb as fuck and I can't find any good custom packs. Everything I find looks like it's meant for keyboard or has stuff that is stupidly hard and not fun at all.

**shenjoku** · 09-25-2016, 02:06 PM

Played for a few hours and only got one score that was any good.

I've also realized that the spawncamping-wallhack theme I've been using for PIU doesn't really work since it has no idea how to handle holds. Any song with a lot of holds gets a hugely inflated score. Not sure how to deal with that...I don't like any of the PIU skins I've found so far so I'm kinda stuck =/

**shenjoku** · 10-2-2016, 10:28 PM

3.5% improvement woot! Good enough for me.

**shenjoku** · 10-8-2016, 03:44 PM

Had a good session this morning. Played through a ton of the Vocaloid pack, and I gotta say, that pack is fucking solid. Only one chart I didn't like out of everything I played, which is very rare. And that's just because it was more of those awkward crossovers surrounded by mines that I'm terrible at.

Really hard for a 10.

Woot! This went well. The greats were during the 12ths that came out of nowhere. Wasn't expecting it =/ Next time...

This one wasn't too bad. I zoned out during the last run and messed up an easy part.

Super fun. Love this chart

And finally, another 3% improvement, woot! Didn't fuck up the beginning this time so that's probably where it all came from.

Kraezymann · 10-8-2016, 04:01 PM

I'm jelly of your progress dude. Keep it up

**shenjoku** · 10-9-2016, 02:45 AM

Thanks

I'm certainly trying. All that physical therapy has paid off I think. Feel a lot better now.

**shenjoku** · 10-11-2016, 10:41 PM

Played a bunch of Volcaloid songs to warm up then went through all of my charts. I revamped them all over the weekend and they are soooooo much better now.

Still can't pass Centipede Expert though

So fucking hard. I adjusted the rating after and made it a 13 and changed Endless to a 12. I mean, look at the difference XD

**shenjoku** · 11-24-2016, 06:55 PM

I'm still here

Took a month break because my knee was insanely sore after a concert x.x Going to see Knife Party this weekend so probably gonna be sore for another month XD worth it!

So clooooooooose

One great was early on when I forgot there was a lot of offbeat 16th stuff x.x oops

Kraezymann · 11-24-2016, 08:46 PM

Gib accuracy plz

**shenjoku** · 11-24-2016, 10:36 PM

My accuracy is terrible D: You don't want it!

**shenjoku** · 12-7-2016, 11:24 PM

Mostly recovered some Knife Party so getting back at it

Can I just say that I hate this chart. The weird ass crossovers with the mines are...weird XD I have no idea how to do them without faking it. Surprised I did this well to be honest.

I think this is up from a 96.5x% or something like that. 98 soon

**PrawnSkunk** · 12-7-2016, 11:45 PM

Keep it up shenjoku!

**Dinglesberry** · 12-8-2016, 09:24 AM

Can you make your theme show the pack that the song you just played is in thanks in advance god bless xoxo

**shenjoku** · 12-8-2016, 08:34 PM

I wish I knew how

I'll see if it has settings for that. I'm not sure it does. I've been playing nothing but the Vocaloid Project Pack 4th if you're looking to download it :P

EDIT: Yeah, this theme has no way of showing the pack

I'm running OpenITG with the Simply Love theme and can't find any information on how to turn that on, if it exists. I'm not even sure if OpenITG has that feature.

**shenjoku** · 12-9-2016, 11:58 PM

Got it

Huge improvement. Not sure why I had an 89% on this. Think I was just tired last time I played it lol. Happy I managed to FC it with all those 32nd bursts.

And then this magic happened yessssssss <3 Probably my favorite chart in this pack.

**shenjoku** · 12-12-2016, 11:37 PM

Fuuuuuuuuu x.x If I didn't keep fucking up stupid parts I could 96 this no problem. Maybe next time...

Up from an 82.xx

I'll take any improvement at this point.

Starting to work on WHY marathons again. I'm sooooo close to passing Golden Slaughter x.x there's only one part that keeps fucking me over. Gotta figure out a way to read it and then I should be able to get to the last song in WHY 5EVR.
