i literally can't sightread aaa anything.

yeah sure if i actually wanted to get an aaa on any particular song under like 30 i could probably do it with enough patience, but certainly not on the first go, except for *really* easy things. if that was necessary like if i was in a tournament or something i'd have to play it over and over to get the aaa. if i'm playing for fun what's the point in playing an easy song a lot of times trying to hit every note perfectly and getting frustrated when i get a good on a random arrow on an easy part, just to get the aaa?

i would demonstrate by giving a replay, but i haven't in fact played this game in a few months (check my last played dates) since i'm stuck with this shitty laptop keyboard that gives me random misses all the time especially on repeated notes. this includes typing.

Edit: And my point stands, if you can aaa this you can aaa almost anything 50 and under.... EASILY. You played it 20 times so cant just go with i got it first try or anything

i got this score a long time ago when i was low d2 and getting single digit goods on like mid-30s and unable to read things in the high 40s at all.

i vehemently maintain that this song ought to be given a rating in the low 30s, like 32-33. what you may find hard (in this case the arrow gimmick) may not be hard for everyone, though i'm probably finding this on the easier end. you could similarly say that since i find it fairly easy to do the 2-4-6-8-10(12) thing on excite bike to unlock omgwtft0k3n and gammablaster can't do it even on the r^3 engine then that makes me mid d7.

the 20 plays don't include several hundred restarts. i have a screenshot of the aaa posted in the 2012 scores thread that i'm too lazy to dig up but it has 160ish restarts and that was only on the last day when i was improving it from a black flag or 1-0-0-1 (can't remember which) to an aaa, and i only did that to reinforce my point in the thread about the song being hugely over-rated.
