What is a mindblock like?

Re: What is a mindblock like?

a mindblock is when you hit a pattern wrong the first few times, rage, restart the file, say to yourself "okay I hit it like this" and proceed to hit it wrong for the next 50 restarts

Kind of like when you sit on your hand too long and then try to jerk it

when you're playing through a song over and over again and at that one specific part of said song you start feeling like you do when you're about to find out if she's pregnant or not
and then you mess up

It's mostly with files that you play too many times. I tried unlocking scarhand on nainai and got some goods at hard spots. After playing it 30+ times, I suddenly couldn't get through the intro anymore. I watched the replay and there didn't seem to be any reason, speed- or patternwise, for me to get 2 or 3 goods on it and I tapped the patterns without the music without any problem, but 9 out of 10 times, I would again screw up that intro that posed no problem at all in the first 30 or so tries. That is a mindblock.

What does it feel like? It's very frustrating, especially when you mindblock simple patterns, because you feel like a retard without the power to get back to normal. It's like the arrows are dudes you hang out with, but some of them suddenly turned into sexy chicks and you just stand there drooling and stammering whenever they pass you by.

It's basically a weird condition for people who don't use shuffle/random at all that they get mindblocks because they rely too much on muscle memory. rip
