Is this because of hackers or are players now just THAT good?

[stavie33]

So, apparently 28-0-0-7 on strawberry sweetz is rank 83, how the **** does that happen? My best score is much better, 14-2-0-2, which I would THINK is like, top 30, but somehow it's rank 53, what? Am I just not catching up to the tremendous skill increase or are there really 100+ players capable of that score? I thought that was pretty damn good, considering how long and annoying the song is, not to mention the 32nd wall that changes patterns. Wow, am I really that bad? What happened to everyone? Also, how is a 25-0-0-0 clean run on Across Rooftops rank 74? This is ridiculous, now way is everyone getting THAT good. **** man...

[virus003]

you just suck then

I find it funny how ten goods on Strawberry Sweetz gives you top 30ish but then 18 goods (roughly your best score) is over rank 50.

And then Death Piano is just a freaking joke in terms of score gap - RATO isn't *too* bad since several have broken 243 now (I was able to get 242 back when I still mashed a good amount of the file earlier in 2009, just not ridiculously hard like before haha). Rank 3 on DP to rank 2 is from 3,742,380 to 3,796,565 while RATO is like 246ish to 247ish.

So guys - learn to not mash the living **** out of the level 13's, especially if you're getting scores that good on the FGO's lmao

[kmay]

i dont mash 13's i just cant combo them =/which is what it comes down too

actually dossar
not all of us have a history of vibrajacking so insanely
nor can we AA grind2 1.4 rate

i guess you're just an exception ^_^


ps) people are just good nowadays actually.. i can think of 53 people off the top of my head who can do better than 14-2-0-0~ on strawberry sweetz, since it's really not that hard of a song..

53 people = isn't that much really.

Strawberry Sweetz = easy except for the single 32nd stream thing that gave me litterally all 8-1-0-4 of my 8-1-0-4. Across Rooftops = easy except for doubles at the end which can catch you off guard and kill your PA.

A lot has happened since FFR was down on December of '09...people have had a crap load of time to increase their skills. With this being said, obviously there were quite a few people (including myself) that had a huge skill boost. Personally I'm GLAD that 53 people can do better than that on SS, or 74 on across rooftops...in fact, kind of wish there was a bit more competition on crazier files like that. I know they are FGO's...but still, only 74 people can get under 25 goods on across rooftops...seems like a small amount.

EDIT: Hackers are on a lot of the FGO's and D13 files...but there are only a few of them. They aern't exactly killing the ranks or anything. Yeah they should be removed and all that...but there are like maybe 5 or so hackers MAX on most of the FGO's and D13 files if that.

[Patashu]

I like how everyone's score on strawberry sweetz is messy

[leonid]

strawberry sweetz is one of the last files I'll ever start whoring

[ninjaKIWI]

Those are both like the easiest FGOs ever~

[rushyrulz]

SS is pretty easy with regards to all the other insane FGOs out there.

lol cause it's true
SS is easy, integraation bursts are hard but the rest is easy..

other FGOs that are truly "hard" would be..

eclipse
j'ai
schmollbluk
m8 bit
almost there
revo
cccp

get my drift?

[who_cares973]

CCCP isnt "truly hard" either. just most people suck at reading h0h0
