This sounds pretty intense, hope you get better. And I suggest you don't participate if it's going to affect your vision in any way. There are tournaments going on almost at any given time, this is just official, which won't really make that much of a difference.

yeah well i got to try and practice. im not doing to bad with one eye really and i moved my speed from 1.7x to 1.8 times today and im kicking ass. ive been playing for 3 months i think? well i started right when the site got closed i played for like 2 weeks. then right be for it opened i was playing on the light darkness engine so i really need the practice but thanks for caring <3 i wont push my self to far.

Edit: btw. im going to be the best, lol. i was the best at guitar hero i love these kinds of games im a fast learner and really nerd out on them, ive been playing 8 hours a day on this site and havnt played for that long, 80% of my fcs are 8-10 lvl songs, i random 8-10 songs all day and fc most first try you should practice with me i wanna make a name for my self after this tourney... (atleast try hard)

Wow that's really unfortunate - it's amazing to see you still invest time into this game with that type of obstacle, but if it's really bad I seriously think you should consider just taking a break.

Also FFRGreen, you need to be careful how you word that (All-Pro noticed it as well) - if you told Marcus to do any decently hard file now, he'd probably have trouble just PASSING. (Of course, this also puts aside a ton of other factors, but that's not needed here)

It's wayyy better to work on your accuracy rather than improving your speed mod (particularly in your skill legs area and if what you're trying to do is prepare for a tournament. For pretty much all tournaments, the people who do the best are the people who don't just FC, but the people who have good accuracy (although, to be fair, you will have to FC your round's song in this tournament, but I seriously recommend not just trying to improve your speed mod all the time unless it seems really slow, I've tried doing it twice in the past and both times I ended up going back to what I'm used to and skill boosted just because I wasn't ENTIRELY 100% comfortable with the change. Not trying to tell you what to do, just trying to be helpful ))

This. The fact that FFR is a combo based scoring game stresses that FCing any song is a better score than scores with great accuracy but a few misses. However, those who continue to try an maintain that great accuracy tends to excel at an unfathomable rate. I remembered that in the 5th Official tournament, I was placed in D3 even though I cannot FC 7's at the time. By strictly focusing on accuracy, I came out of that tournament being able to AAA 10s consistently, even though I placed 40th of 300ish people. I really hope situations similar to this will happen in this tournament.

[eddieownz]

thanks dossar for the thought. im not going to push my self to where im going to go blind or nothing that shit would suck, but i can still see a little out of my eye and i just need the light for my equilibrium, if it starts hurting ill take a break

alloyus and iironiic

i understand what you guys are saying, im just randoming songs and learning more spreads and playing new files to get a taste of everything, im fc all the songs first be for i aaa them bc this will give me the skil to do it, i do good on fc i don't just mash the keys i try and hit them as well, after i fc all the songs im going to aaa, but im going to try and practice aaa for now and take the advice bc yeah its gunna be a aaa fest lol. the speed i was rising bc it is slow and the notes are to close for me to be accurate, im hoping to get to 1.85 for the tourney, no matter what im going to try my hardest and try and take a shit on all of you haha jk, thanks for the advice

switched to the windows classic theme (finally) so no more lag on the standalone, watch out D6 \o/

[justin_ator]

LOL ALEXDEST FROM NOWHERE here we go. I'm ready to see how this all plays out. I've been telling people to switch to classic theme forever now rofl. It reduces lag more than people think.

I love how you made a vid of yourself deleting all of your SM files and convinced everyone that you're quitting for good, and now you're back and ready to pwn ffr.

Unless you have my shitty computer. I have GB, Windows Classic theme, and no processes that I don't need up, and still lag. lmao

Leo sign up please.

[psychoangel691]

Up to 356 signups now, starting to slow down. I had guessed we'd prob get about 500 signups total for this one. Looks like it may be on track to hit about that many.
