@ Crashfan and Commander.
What? She is new, she doesn't need speed mods or spread yet.
I played on the arrow keys until about 3 weeks ago, Kurenai.
And I didn't use a speed mod until about a month ago.
Don't bother just yet, unless you REALLY want to.

And btw, welcome to FFR.
The community is MOSTLY cool, so you shouldn't have any problems.
Too bad you JUST joined, the 4th official tournament started 3 weeks ago.

Re: I am new, but not a n00b

Actually, the speed mods did a lot of good. I have lots of trouble with slow songs, so its easier to go fast. If that makes any sense at all.

I can't even switch to the spread, I have to keep on the keys for a while. I just tired switching, it didn't work that well..v.v

Any who...yeah, too bad... I would have like to be in the tournament. ^^

But thanks anyways.

Well it's not supposed to be easy. I recommend switching to spread now instead of learning bad habits.

Re: I am new, but not a n00b

...I'll try...but that means...*remembers the horrors* Ugh...easy and beginner songs again.

Thanks. ^^

Re: I am new, but not a n00b

Don't worry if you can't do spread immediately. It took about a week for me to get a good grip on two-hand, and will probably take me about a week to get used to spread.
And yes, it's easier for most people to read on a higher speedmod than 1x.

And welcome to FFR :3

Re: I am new, but not a n00b

Eh...yeah. ^^ Spread is coming a little more easier...I just have to concentrate. Thats all.

And thank you...

I was going to...but...It kinda slipped my mind, I'll remember for now on, though. ^^

Re: I am new, but not a n00b

Don't try to concentrate TOO hard on the song, though. Usually when I concentrate hard when playing spread, I get really sweaty and stop breathing. XD
No problem.
Ok great. :3
It seems like you're going to get along with the community well.

And I didn't notice this before, but I thought this was hilarious:

...I'll try...but that means...*remembers the horrors* Ugh...easy and beginner songs again.

I know. Aren't they just awful? Lol.
EDIT: Also, if you want to participate in Tournaments, we have a Tournament Forum that you'd probably like.

Re: I am new, but not a n00b

O.O.....But I don't wanna get sweaty and stop breathing! I'll just concentrate a little and practice on different songs...although having a sister breathing down your neck doesn't help.

Well...I don't like getting on people's bad sides, so...I may as well get along, right? Hehe.

They are awful! When I started DDR, I did those things, and the person teaching me was like: "Don't ever do that again, Your going straight to standard". I was like...'what?'...now I understand. *nods*

[SpammyMcSquirrel]

Re: I am new, but not a n00b

Yeah, it's good idea to start playing another song after about 3-5 tries, otherwise the song will drive you insane. Lol.
I'm the same way with people. Also, I find no point in flaming at all.
Wow. Straight to Standard. I could've never done that when i first began playing DDR or Stepmania/FFR.
So what difficulty did you have to switch down to to practice spread? I had to go down to Standard/Tricky/Difficult from Challenging/Very Challenging/For Masters Only.

Hi, welcome to Flash Flash Revolution Community, KurenaiHime!

Just a tip. Try playing FFR two-handed. Go to "Settings" on the first screen, and set your key configuration to something like Z , X , N , M. Those will then act as your arrow keys. You can change them back whenever you want, but keep in mind that this "spread" playing style is what all of the best players use, and that once you get used to one-handed style like me, it's very hard to switch. -_-

If you have questions, just ask.

How r u that good just playing one-handed I would like to know how? lol

Re: I am new, but not a n00b

To SpammyMcSquirrel: Yeah....I just keep trying different songs....its rather hard when my sister keeps clicking on the mouse...v.v.. She's 6..and won't leave me alone!

And Flaming, I've never done such a thing in my whole life.

As for switching levels. I have to go to Easy from Standard, maybe Tricky. I don't want to try challenging things yet.

To halomasterman: I am rather good with one hand. I did a song in all combo and didn't make a mistake. I think the song was called Raindrops. I've already pretty much mastered One-handed.
