    Has this happened to you

    Okay, you start playing hard song, just trying to beat your own record. I mean, you have been far away from even a sdg in that song. Then you notice that omg the combo is 400+ and still all perfs.. your hands start shaking and the sweat appears and your concentration suffers a bit. Then your combo is 700+ and only 100 notes to AAA!! Then you start imaginating "omg this is something unbeliavable im posting this to brag board" and "this is goddamit my first AAA" and something like that. Then, suddenly, you notice a small yellow thing under your combo. You don't even understand what happened before the scores appear. A blackflag...

    This just happened to me. Gaussian blur 3. I wondered after the first 50 notes in the beginning how I PA'd all the fast notes... then the streams.. pure PA.. in the half way begins the easiest part of the song. And I was really nervous. I almost cheered like Synthlight when my combo was 700. Then when the combo was around 720 I saw them. Two damned goods. My earlier record was 12 goods with 2 boos.

    My best AAA is still just a Tricky song. This was Challenging

Plateauing doesn't really exist, if you aren't improving it means you haven't put in the effort needed to improve, or your effort has been misapplied. It's more of a problem at really high levels, but never totally concrete.

            Has the gap been fixed yet? If not I'm not playing it.

              Nice improvement!

              A similar thing happened to me on Silence. I realized I was AAAing it with like...200 notes to go, and I became so nervous that my hands just died on me.

                  Your score reminds me of my 0-0-1-2 on the same song.

                      I've pulled a BlackFlag many times on Beethoven Virus but now that I have to do it for the official tournament, I struggle to get 5 goods or less and FC is getting harder and harder to pull. I think if someone or something drives your stress higher(to qualify for a tournament in my case), it causes your game to flaw. This is also the reason why they say those who can control stress and emotions during critical times of their activities become efficient at it.

                            When I am trying to AAA something, I always tell myself I will AAA the next time, and once in a while, it works.
