DeadSignal/csenc Progress Thread

Re: DeadSignal/csenc Progress Thread.

Just had my best session to date, very likely the most significant skillboost I've gotten so far. As such, for the sake of comparison I am posting scores from last week-ish as well as from just now.

Spoilered for your convenience.

300 burst-ish streams.


Also 300 streams, except they're a fair bit more sustained I guess. Pretty decent score.




Decent score, though I should still work on improving my control.


fuck


fuck^2


Still pretty bad at jumptrills, but I guess that was alright. :s


First pass, very bad score.






Managed to barely clutch AA through sloppily-jumptrilling the streams. :s


Bad rushes even though I didn't get completely annihilated by handstream section, rip.


jumptrill overload


Sightread, 145 jumpjacks are still a bit too much for me to handle comfortably though.


Overall-unimpressive due to miss-rushing the middle of it for no reason.


Won't be able to improve upon this anymore... at least, not by much.

Unexpected warmup score, that felt nice to get.


Was rather-shocked to notice that I had 89'd this, when I wasn't expecting to even A this.
This is where things started to pick up by quite a bit.


Massive improvement from my first score. The ride goes on...


And on...


Someone requested that I play it on stream, so I did. 3 cb's is kinda good I suppose.


Turns out my ~300 stream scores from before weren't just a fluke. c:


From straining myself to pass it with a 78 a couple weeks ago, I reattempted it and got this. Pretty solid improvement, though my trilling could still use a bit more consistency.


First pass.


Was really distracted throughout the song, but this is still kinda good considering how I've felt close to no physical attrition right after having played through it.


First AA, felt nice to get. CB's could've been a little bit better though.


Pretty good score considering how hard the patterns were to me at that speed.


138bpm handjacks, first pass I think. Overstrained my right arm a bit though.


Kinda good.


Mindblowing.


AA on this is overdue, but I'm not even mad. Likely crushable soon...

Re: DeadSignal/csenc Progress Thread.

nice score on just hold on mang

[DeadSignal]

Re: DeadSignal/csenc Progress Thread.

Tried physically pushing myself even further, but haven't been able to gain much from it in the process. So gonna fall back a little till I can play consistently without straining myself.

First pass on this, been wanting this for quite a long time.
Won't be improving this anytime soon though.


The broken 32nd streams throw me off so hard.


Super-cheesable 300 streams.


First pass on this as well, could be more consistent but it's so draining.


Sightread, 280's kinda fast. :s


Was a pretty good speed score to me. :3

~28 minutes of 242 streams or so, gets a bit faster towards the end.
Was actually putting mild effort into holding consistent combos in the first half, would've been AA if I were to strain towards the very end instead of opting out of it for stamina reasons. Oh well.


Warmup score from a couple days ago, felt nice to get.


Basically where my comfort zone retreat journey begins, alongside a 95% Grief & Malice score that I didn't consider to be worth posting. Nothing too special.


That was a pretty nice FC to get, SDG would be somewhat impressive to me.


144 jacks or so.


First AA. It's pretty overdue, but 1k combo felt nice in my eyes.


Unexpected handstream ending rip ;__;


Really solid improvement for me, too bad my technique dropped during the second half and I had to resort to actually straining to keep on pace.


Fun JS file from Pompompulin's Resistenza pack. Sightread AA's kinda decent probably.

[DeadSignal]

Re: DeadSignal/csenc Progress Thread.


First AA, messed up the 24ths though because bad.


Decent in my eyes, surprised I held combo for that long.


Starting to adjust to jumptrills more, but I still have so far to go...


Ditto. Didn't get destroyed on the ending as much as I expected, but could still be far better anyway. :s


Just need to not tense up on the handjacks as much, ezpz.


rip AA


First pass, file's kinda brutal to me for now.


Definitely AA-able, but I'm bad.


Trying to actually get used to handjacks, but I get held back due to not being able to read 100% comfortably yet (I can read the patterns but still tend to overstrain on them).


First AA, felt pretty good. c:


Seemed like a pretty solid run to me considering I don't really recall playing that file before.


This is actually my second pass, but it's substantially-better than my first so there you go.
I also tried 1.5 but it's still too fast for me to last all the way.

[DeadSignal]

Re: DeadSignal/csenc Progress Thread.

Forgot to post a handful of scores from shortly after my last update, so splitting this post into two parts.

As evidenced by my choke towards the end, I haven't been able to break past 88-89 no matter how hard I tried.


Casually attempted this on stream, didn't turn out too bad from the looks of it.


That solo section makes no sense.


Unexpected AA, felt pretty good to get.


I rarely play stuff on 0.x rates, I guess that was ok-ish though?


First pass on this song, can't perform consistently on it though because of reading and technique.


Intended to play this as jumptrill practice, except I ended up hitting the split ones as quadjacks... oops.


Choked AA towards the second half, not sure if it's even actually worth anything.


Those transitions are so tricky. :S


Hai, I have bad quadjack technique.


First A, think I'm getting somewhere...


This is probably my first time actually fully hitting the long jacks, just need to do better on them and I'm good to go.


Probably sdg-able once my technique gets better.


Those patterns are so hard on the second half. D:

After having taken a 1-week break due to physiological exhaustion among other things, I have lowered my scroll speed due to my tendency to overstrain and have most of my non-marvelous hits and cb's occur late for the most part. This has led to me improving rather-significantly as I am now able to produce better scores without straining myself as hard.


Fucked up horrendously on the 24ths, glad to have finally AA'd this though.


Combos weren't as impressive as my previous attempts, but at least I stopped falling apart like I used to.


Felt like I was going to fluke-AA this, but I ended up dropping it somehow... thus ruining what could have been a godlike run in my eyes given how intense it felt all the way. Oh well. :c


Another fluke 92% score, felt quite surprising/funny to get. c:


Seemed on pace for 96-97% given how hard I was crushing the jumptrills, till I fucked up the ending. :s First AA though, so that's nice I guess.


Eze's chart, improvable score due to random/odd cb's.


Probably AA-able, second half probably gets harder though.


310 streams, felt like a nice improvement from my 92.97% score I got a while back.


First AA on this file, the 24ths are so hard though. ;__;


Nice meme score, I wouldn't have deserved it anyway.





Oh look, I actually AAA'd something.
These don't feel like much at all considering how accuracy stands out perhaps by far as the weakest aspect of my skillset, but at least I have finally done so after ~4 years since I started playing this game.

I need to work on MA more, may eventually post a few more accuracy scores depending on how my next sessions turn out... but I don't know yet.

[DeadSignal]

Re: DeadSignal/csenc Progress Thread

I've improved a bit further, but feeling the badness kicking in again so here's more scores.



Bad consistency keeps holding me back.


Felt kinda nice.


First A, still super bad at handjacks though.


Rip, PA seems decent though.


First pass on this, surprised to notice it's actually a mid-A score rather than a low-mid B which I was expecting.
Just gotta learn how to hit the difficult part properly, and I'm set.


Getting closer to a decent run on this, gotta stop bleeding cb's though.


The burst jacks are hard. D:


Middle of the file is 1 minute of up/down trills at 180bpm.
Pretty bad score, but posting this as a baseline as I intend to poke at it further.


why


First pass, the denser js sections are still a bit too much for me.


This file is pretty relentless, wish I could stop falling apart like halfway into it.


Kinda okay I guess, maybe further jack-related improvement is just around the corner?

[DeadSignal]

Re: DeadSignal/csenc Progress Thread

Don't know why I'm submitting that many scores, but whatever.
Speed/JS are yet again nowhere to be found for now, as evidenced by the fact that most of these are jack scores.


First time actually playing the file, started choking AA on the parts that actually mattered towards the second half.
Which is quite deplorable considering the level I should currently be at.


First A, kinda surprised that I have improved upon this.


Been choking AA on this file for the longest time, I could have gotten it several months ago. Rip.


Was doing okay, till the last 1/4 of the file where I choked hard. Simply awful.


I still kinda lack the control to fully-sustain the middle part properly. Hopefully someday soon though...


Been wanting to pass this for a good while, it's only like 202 jumpjacks. Not too fast...


lol


Decent-ish improvement from my last attempts on it.


Second half is brutal, also I'm bad.


First pass, speedup section is gay.


Overdue AA, not satisfied with it though since it should be well within the realm of 95-96% for me.


First AA on this much to my surprise, next step would be to work on the godawful great count.


In the midst of my abysmal session which devolved into a jack practice session, I got around to passing this. Awful score.


Tried it on lower rates, made this happen which is kinda nice. c:
Needs more sunsun, only 4 rates to go right?


Tried this right afterwards, wasn't too bad apparently.


I keep forgetting the second half is brutal, which made me overtense a lot. :s

[DeadSignal]

Re: DeadSignal/csenc Progress Thread

Still in the process of adjusting to sm5, as well as trying to find a proper global offset that I can use to play optimally.



Casual warmup score apparently. o_o


Accuracy felt like it was falling apart more than it should have, probably AA-able if not for me being held back by it.


Did so much better on everything but the hard handstream bit right there. Awful.


best file 2016


Probably kinda decent?


First AA, got too messy towards the second half though.


From struggling to barely AAing this on 1.0, I AA'd 1.1.
Pretty solid progress, nice testament to my newly-found JS comfort zone.


97-able, sdcb-able? That run was decent, but there's still a long way to go for me.


AA run died at the very last cbrush, which all occurred in a literal fraction of a second. Rip. ;~;


Ebola color theory, also awkward 275 streams that last a long time.


Over 7 minutes of ~260 streams, this almost feels within AA range to me.
Given how long it is though, I don't think I'll be reattempting it anytime soon.

[DeadSignal]

Re: DeadSignal/csenc Progress Thread

Haven't been progressing very much as of the past couple weeks, since I appear to have close to no physical energy left to use compared to my previous major skillboost. Someday I'll stop being bad again... maybe.



Can probably smash this with a 98+, but correcting cb's with these kinda patterns is hard.


Warmup score if I remember correctly, seemed okay considering how awkward certain sections were.


Somewhat decent, but improvable.


Nice cb count I guess, but accuracy could've been better.


Need to improve on control if this is ever going to happen anytime soon.


This happened during a bad session, not particularly-good but I'll take it.


Surprisingly better than I expected, maybe once I stop overstraining I can get a good run going on it.


First time actually playing the song, not satisfied till I sdcb it though.


Might be doable soon...


Bad accuracy and even worse PA, this might be decent-ish though I dunno?

[DeadSignal]

Re: DeadSignal/csenc Progress Thread

Will I ever get unbad at this game?
Lack of reading ability is starting to catch up to me whenever I actually push myself on substnatially-harder stuff, so let's see what I have been able to do in the meantime.



Could have been a bit better in my opinion, but that's still a nice score nonetheless considering I've wanted that for 1.5 years.


Polys weren't as relentless as I thought, should probably give this another try later.


Somewhat of a fun chart.


Haven't played pad songs in a while, that seemed kinda decent to me. :s


Overdue first AA on this, not very good but at the same time it'll take a while till I'm able to 97 it or something.


The fast streams are pretty hard, how to do them consistently without jumptrilling ?_?


Kinda figuring out how to do it without straining too much all the way, just gotta fully nail the long jacks and I'm set.
I also have a 90-91 run on the non-extended chart that completely died out in the last few seconds, rip.


It took me a month to realize that my 96.1% score on M-A was actually on the easier chart instead of this one, oops. >_>
Score itself is nothing to write home about, but certainly not subpar either.

Re: DeadSignal/csenc Progress Thread

That Lithium is dope, you can def AA that man

Re: DeadSignal/csenc Progress Thread

That Lithium is dope, you can def AA that man

I'll get around to it eventually yeah, turns out that 92 run of mine was pretty solid after all - not gonna touch it for a while so I can come back to crush it later :3

More stuff happened today, mostly overdue manias because I'm gay like that.


Happened towards the end of my warmup, felt alright even though it could've been a bit cleaner.


Overdue AA, still not very good though because I fucked up the transitions in spite of finally playing all the way without overstraining at all.


OH-trilly handstream is cancer, glad to be finally on my way to prevailing through it.


Certainly feels doable, cbrushed pretty hard though because I'm bad.


Also doable, once I get around to actually caring about nailing the ending right.


bad score on meme file ayy


Not overstraining is nice, first 1.2 AA. c:


The second half is so hard. D: Probably my next JS goal.

[cedolad]

Re: DeadSignal/csenc Progress Thread

Is insane challenging or edit?

nvm doesn't matter i'm dumb, A on Does Your Chain is pretty good iirc that's the real jacky one too?

[DeadSignal]

Re: DeadSignal/csenc Progress Thread

I think it is now apparent that I've started falling behind again, so my sessions have become rather irregular as a result of that. All these scores were from last week, as I have no idea as to when I will be getting back on track.

As such, here's a few songs that do come to mind once/if that does happen. That is without including a handful of songs that I intend to crush later on with 97-98+ scores.

- Cyber Induction 1.1
- Fury of the Jumpstream 1.1
- The End 1.0
- We Fucking Hate You 1.0
- We Luv Lama oni 1.0


Trying to accustom myself to slightly-faster JS than I'm currently used to, bad accuracy as a result of that.


Super bad rushes.


PA might be good for me.


Tired out on the second half and started great-rushing too much, perhaps someday I'll shoot for a clean run of this.


Unreleased file by Tachyon that will probably end up in The Outsiders 3, I don't post chordjacking scores very often lately so I figured I might as well.


Probably kinda good.

[DeadSignal]

Re: DeadSignal/csenc Progress Thread

Speed's been kinda moving forward I guess, but my JS stamina is still MIA.
Here's a bunch of nice scores for now, probably going to work on my stam for the next few sessions as I'm starting to find that it's indeed falling behind too much.









just fuck up my shit fam


Totally forgot about the jack at the end, oops~


Very likely my best speed score so far imo, played through it all the way without actually really dropping my control that much, which I consider to be a first for me.


won't i ever not be unbad


Great rushed the start a little bit, but that's probably decent I guess?
