Re: Beta Engine: R^3 [Updated 6/5/14]

It looks like R^3 is getting used by default now, or at least it's what I seem to be running at the moment, so I'll ask this here. When looking at the options, I noticed a lot more than I remember,...

Re: What is your weak point at FFR?

I don't get tons of PCs/AAAs, but the one pattern that regularly causes problems for me is left-down-up-right -- I guess that's a left to right roll. Playing with one hand, I find this pattern to be...

Re: Using speed boost to play better

For what it's worth, when I first tried the speed mods, 1.25x was too slow for me (not a big difference between that and 1x IMO), 1.5x was good, and 1.75x was too fast for me, so I play on 1.5x. ...
