It's not that it's boring cause, well for me I still can't AAA it, go figure, have over 13 FMO AAA's but ... can't AAA a 6 .... its garbage... I'm sorry but it really is. For one, its not a 6, left hand 12th trill, stupid awkwardness patterns, swing bullcrap, yeah.

Omg Little Star freaked me the **** out when the hands showed up. It made sense though, being louder and all. But man, I missed the first time LOL
2 easy 3minute+ files are boring, but I'll live. Got one more to AAA, no rush to do that.
Also this better help me get HWG.

okay I don't understand what the hell you guys are talking about when you say there's hands in Little Star. There's not one single hand in that damn file. they're CLOSE to hands, yes, but technically they're not hands.

3 or more notes in the same beat is considered hands. I don't know if that song has it cause I haven't played it yet, but lol

Re: FFRMas 2010 - from Dec 19th to Dec 25th

ok considering it's arrow count "increase" (and within a week since release).
can fix if you send me the fixed dwi.

It's still really easy to change without changing note count and not making it worse though.

I don't see what you mean. If I add silence to the beginning, the notes that were cut off at the beginning won't be cut off anymore. How could the note count not change?

Anyway, I sent the update to the batch email. If you change the file, that's great. If you don't want to hassle with it, that's fine too. I'm the one causing problems to begin with.

Re: FFRMas 2010 - from Dec 19th to Dec 25th

Haven't played any of the new songs yet, but fyi, hands and quads are now allowed in easier songs - with moderation in usage of course.

Hopefully they're not that frightening. 8D

woahwoahwoahwoah... really?

Yeeeeesss. (kinda)

I'm scared for some of the future files, but I'm also like this because I won't have to worry when I make files

Personally I think if you add hands into a "standard" file, it's automatically not "standard" anymore. Things like hands just up the difficulty if the difficulty is already that low. I say you at least make it a "tricky".

Re: FFRMas 2010 - from Dec 19th to Dec 25th

Personally I have to disagree with that; that only seems like an artificial judgment based on the fact that FFR people haven't encountered hands/quads for easier songs yet. There's very little additive brain and finger power involved in hitting an extra arrow to the jumps you are already used to. The differences become apparent when hand usage becomes more intense when layered among other things; THAT's when hands and quads make songs significantly more difficult. For easy songs, it won't hurt that much. If you played stargroup's lightfoot song on Stepmania, you'll know what I mean by an "easy song with hands".

If you use them please be very mindful of the variety of players that will be playing them though. i.e. if you put ^ and \/ in a hand, 1hand-3finger players are going to have a hard time adapting to it.

since it increases the number of notes you don't have to reset the leaderboards. a AAA on the old file will still be below the maximum possible score, so nobody will have scores that will be impossible with the new chart, and if people care that much about their score they can play it again.

Re: FFRMas 2010 - from Dec 19th to Dec 25th

Yeah, use with discretion for easy files. Some arrow placements feel better than others, and this itself will vary according to playing style as aperson has noted.

The only thing this won't cater to are index players...and I don't really have much of a reaction to that other than a shrug.

Re: FFRMas 2010 - from Dec 19th to Dec 25th

Thank you aperson, that's what I meant. Sorry bmah, I forgot to mention that I was one-handed and things get difficult when BOOM HAND IN YO FACE ON A STANDARD. ah well, your argument has good points. I guess time will have to tell if hands get to be too much in easier files.

Re: FFRMas 2010 - from Dec 19th to Dec 25th

Its better to learn how to hit hands on easier files rather then having to play a song way out of your difficulty range just to be able to learn them.

Re: FFRMas 2010 - from Dec 19th to Dec 25th

left,down,right hands and left,up,right hands are both really really easy for one-handed players. Index could switch and use an extra finger if there are only 1 or 2 hands in certain spots. Once it gets loaded they'll have major troubles though. A small amount of hands are great if they're used correctly.
