    You know, I'll be honest with you, I have NO idea what streams are. I'm not huge on the terminology when it comes to rhythm based games. I know what trills are, but that's only because I play in my high school's band.

    All I know is, I see arrows, I need to hit those arrows.

      Lol, streams are just massive quantities of arrows at a fast but unchanging rhythm that generally goes on for a while. It happened twice in Monstrous Turtles.



      This one's not bad, but it gets kinda sloppy at the end.

        a lot terminology's explained here: http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/...d.php?t=115282

        Streams are, well, a continuous stream of arrows coming at you. The lack of breaks characterizes streams. It doesn't have to be fast or a massive quantity - just continuous. Basically, when you play streams, it's a matter of "how long you last"/consistency.

        @Gansler below: that's Rushy's definition which isn't definitive obviously. The definition keeps changing. Rushy just decided to add a number/value which is honestly meaningless. In any case, anyone will agree that streams must have continuity. That's about it.

          Re: Amateur FFR Scores!

          Well, it DOES have to be fast--according to Rushy's definition, "Any string of slower than 8 key taps per second isn't considered a stream."

          Edit: Well, okay, fair enough. Streams are steady and continuous and that's it.

            *Bookmarks link* Thanks. I knew about half of what was in that thread, or at least the original post.

              This one's a bit sloppy, but I don't care because it's my first FMO FC.

                Nice. I had a replay of me FC'ing Starwolf, but - like my VB replay - the replay was ruined with the update.

                If I can get my right hand warmed up before midnight, I might be able to get another good replay in.

                  Nice FC, Gansler. Work on PA, though.

                    :/ What's with the <50 on VC and FMO scores? Those don't go here.

                          if you can get a <50 VC, then you're considered not-amateur usually. :P

                          I wish i could get that >_>

                            Seems these rules are too complicated for people to understand, just go post in the other thread and there wouldnt be this problem.

                              Ehh, it's a fine line (tentative rules posted on first post). What I said in the previous page:

                              Originally posted by bmah
                              the rules for the thread were too rigid and didn't acknowledge the fact that the boundary between "amateur" and "pro" is indeed a blurry one. Anyone can post a level 10 and up score and it can still be "amateur" depending on their results. I'd say it's best just to make your call and point out only really ridiculous scores as opposed to getting antsy over whether someone treaded past the line or not.
                              I think <50 is still a large margin. I'd say <10 goods on VCs and <30 goods on FMOs may be better off in the other thread. Even so, everyone has a different definition of "pro", so I suggested to only point out really ridiculous stuff. <50 doesn't cut it IMO. And it's hard to enforce such a rule - as simple as it seems. I know this thread seems to be continuously having its purpose defeated, but realistically, this is as good as it'll get. People shouldn't be "policing" this thread all that much.


                              @Mopey: The original thread where scores were posted is here. This was where all scores went, but recently, there has been a lot of very good scores that has flooded that thread. People with less than stunning scores were overshadowed by the other scores, and they wanted recognition, so an amateur thread was made. It's up to you, but by comparing what scores other people get, try placing them in the appropriate thread.

                              This thread was mainly created to give amateurs recognition, but if you actually don't care about recognition all too much, might as well place your scores in the original thread.
