    A way for screencutters to see their PA.

    I noticed when playing on dark that the arrow only flashes when you get a perfect. Is there any way for you guys to make it flash different colors for perfect, good, average? That way us screencutters can judge how we're doing and it's not a surprise at the end of the song.

    Just watch the arrows at the top carefully. They only flash for perfects regularly too.
    I think.

    EDIT: Nevermind. I was wrong.

      Ive been wandering about this too luna.
      Id like to know where im getting a "good" or an "average".
      im tired of playing through a song just to see if i AAA it or highscore it.
      Id just be able to boo out if i could see my accuracy and try again

          shut up fuzen.

          yeah its really tough to pay attention to whether it's flashing or not on a fast song.. maybe on something like mario..

          good people discuss.

            Yeah I should probably know this after being here for 2 years, but what's screencutting?

              You make the screen smaller so you see like half of the game.

                Well, I don't consider myself a 'bad' player, but I never have good pa. But this idea crossed my mind many times.

                  I've been thinking that exact same thing for a long time. It's a great idea!

                    Yeah, I'd think it would be possible/good idea as well. I mean, I don't need it, because I'm a half cutter, so emo, anyway.. yeah Its a good idea.

                      Agreed.
                      Screen shrinking does nothing to help.

                        Learn reverse scrolling. I learned how to. I can play both reverse and normal. If I could do it, you guys could probably do it, too.

                          I don't think so, considering I can't learn how to play on standard scroll. I tried for quite a while then r2 came out, and I probably had about my first billion points or so before I switched to reverse.

                            Fact remains guys:
                            1) Screen shrinking.. does help.. A LOT. Just saying don't screen shrink doesn't solve this problem at all.
                            2) Reverse scrolling would take A LONG time for standard scrolling users to switch to, not to mention about 10% of the community uses reverse.

                            I mean, this shouldn't effect anyone who normally plays, would it?

                              You lost me on that.. You started on reverse, then played normal, but gave up? If so, then what's your problem on reading the PA?
