AAAs have no meaning

**OmegaCrowman** · 09-6-2007, 07:20 AM

Consistancy is key for AAA's, but mainly for songs that only use up to 16th notes. For me I guess it does have a bit to do with luck, because I have a wireless keyboard and occasionally it wont register a key insantly. That's mainly why I cant fc most songs with jacks or very intense bursts.

It can be hard though to obtain the right amount of consistancy, since your hand(s) will have to adapt to the BPM of a song as well as the note style. See, when it comes to One Last Battle, about 2 months ago I blackflagged it on the very last note 4 times in a row because of slowdown, then finally managed a double AAA on it while playing against smitty.

I would have to agree to a degree with your constructive argument on if a bf til about 3 goods should be considered AAA on songs that are either offsync, extremely long (4 minutes+), or have constant use of 24th+ notes (aka Ruins, Amefuri Koneko, Jelly Roll Blues, etc.).

Recap: It's mainly skill along with consistancy adjusted to the BPM, but consistancy CAN only go so far.
