At first I wasn't cool with Rarity being in D2, but he deserves it.

I see a little over 800 on Futari for you XD That was like me in the 5th official with Sunshine Stone I had over 900 x.x

Mad respect for people who can play songs that many times and still improve xD

**Garquillex** · 03-2-2013, 03:54 AM

I barely play my songs compared to some of you <_<
I almost never play them more than 3 times in a row, and tend to play many other songs every 1 or 2 attempts

only 35% of my plays on the tiebreaker were on the song

Definitely, I like seeing people that are willing to work that hard and push themselves. I mean early on I saw some people complain with only like 3 plays on their song and I'm like dude wtf you haven't even tried. It's like people expect the files to just be easy for them all the time x.x What sucked for me in the 5th official is I wasn't starting over in the beginning of the file the end was what was killing me so like all 900 something of those plays were basically complete XD

You know, i'll really try to get some attempts out tomorrow and Sunday. I need to study for exams first. I'll see how many attempts I can pump out before the round ends.

I remember playing over 1300 times on Over the Frail Dream in one of the Official tournaments trying to improve my two clean score to meet the AAA cutoff. Unfortunately I was eliminated that round haha. So much effort for nothing

It works both ways haha

D'aw

and omg Over the Frail Dream how much I love and hate that file all at the same time lol.

**Mourningfall** · 03-2-2013, 04:44 AM

How on earth can people play songs that many times and improve?
My skill goes stale after about 5 consecutive tries and I end up going backwards.

I found it easiest to leave it and go play something well above it in terms of difficulty, get comfortable, then return.

Though my strategy doesn't seem to be doing me much justice this round. x:

**psychoangel691** · 03-2-2013, 04:51 AM

I leave and go back too because I'm the same way. If I play something over and over in a row I tend to get worse at it. So I'll play it a few times, play something else, go back, repeat lol. Or I switch between mirror and nonmirror.

**Mollocephalus** · 03-2-2013, 04:59 AM

I find it completely infuriating to play the same song more than a couple times in a row, especially if i'm starting to have bad habits. The harder is the song, the more time i need to recover and try again. If i'm not getting a good score right off the bat, i need to go back, play something else, and repeat. D:

**PaperclipGames** · 03-2-2013, 05:51 AM

Mindblocked on the very first part of the file. gg d4

**anubis2003** · 03-2-2013, 06:25 AM

I find in playing the same songs over and over again (>1100 times on futari before my 2g run) that I have a handful of bad runs at the beginning, a handful of good runs and then my runs get worse for a while. Persevering through that though I hit a spot where I just kinda get into a zone for the song somewhere around 50-100 restarts into the session I start getting pretty consistent at the song.

I'm pretty sure I won't, I have a massive mindblock on the intro roll+trill (I noticed the 4s are 32nds in the roll but 16ths in the trill, and I can't switch between that), and get 2 goods by default there.

Most of my runs are scores like 25-10-2-3 on avarage, because I also derp up really a lot in a pattern near the end (the little staircase followed by the repeated 1) and get a ton of goods and avs there. Every once in a while I nail it. My best runs were 6-0-1-0 and 4-0-1-0 respectively (and that miss was in a ridiculous spot). All the other runs were not even close to SDG.

Seems like 4-0-1-0 might just end up being enough for a pass, though. But I'm aiming for 3g as you say. I'm playing on my new laptop, which minilags constantly (which is ironic because my 5+ year old laptop runs R2 flawlessly in Flash 9). I can whore the song on my old lappy by Monday, so perhaps I'll improve more.

In the meantime, good luck with improving that 8-0-0-1. It seems indeed that that score won't cut it :P

**DarkZtar** · 03-2-2013, 06:14 PM

For me it's literally THE LAST NOTE OF THE LAST BURST. It's like my brain cuts out early and I think it isn't there zzzz.

**d4u7211** · 03-2-2013, 06:40 PM

lmao I actually did that my first 10 or so plays, honestly. (in regards to misses) - it just seems like it should end on the jump
