In A Slump

**cry4eternity** · 07-27-2008, 11:18 AM

So do you guys ever get into a state where it seems like every score you get is crap for a few days or more? What do you do to get out of it?

Could it be that my keyboard is wearing down? My keys do feel softer than usual. Could it be that I've gotten as good as I could ever be? Could it be because it's only 70 degrees outside instead of 80-90 like it was last week when I was improving like crazy?

Last week alone I probably gained close to 100 tier points. Now I'm lucky to FC anything above a 9. I'm curious to hear if anyone else has these dry spells, and what they do to get out of them.

This happens to me occasionally. Just take a break for a day or 2. Then come back. Then just keep playing until you get through it.

Either play through it and accept your scores until you see yourself get better or quit and talk about the glory days when you still had edge.

yup. happened to me for about a week, about 2 weeks ago. really haven't played FFR since. taking a break for a few weeks. then i'll go back to it, and i bet my PA will be even better.

Yeah. Go on holidays for a few weeks, or just remove the temptation of FFR The Game, SM ect... When you get back you will be better than before.
