    The consequence should just be one big division. I still fail to understand the concept of divisions when every single person on this site has the exact same capability of playing (i.e. age, gender, etc. don't matter at all).

    Don't get me wrong, good competition in several divisions is awesome, but it just simply isn't possible to keep the cheaters out.

      Replay images are nice to know how your plays are working out, although isolations also give a hands-on approach.

      Charu, I'll use your replay as a reference because it seems like others are having problems there too. Will get to it later.

      True story, my first MiniMegaTournament was basically one division, haha.

        Absolutely -- I use both methods. If I'm having muscle memory issues, seeing a replay image and practicing it at a more tolerable speed makes things so much easier for me.

        Likewise, if I carry the capability to do something but can't figure out a reason why I'm struggling, I isolate it and try to fine-tune already existent muscle memory. Both ways are very effective in different ways.

          I could do with some help on Aletheia. The beginning is driving me nuts! I can read the patterns perfectly but i'm just not hitting the burst correctly.

          Edit: I can hit them perfectly when looking at an image.

                  Turbulence is a good one too, wildfire and Makiba if you want to really kill yourself before you play. Sometimes I run through Makiba before I have to play a slower js song and it makes whatever song I have to play feel easier, lol.

                      That's fine, thanks for the other suggestions though ^^

                      I like that chart, I'll be giving that one a go until I AAA it. Jumpstream is a little lighter than I want though, as I've almost AAA'd it.

                      I'll try those ones in a bit! I don't recognise either of them XD Although I doubt Makiba is going to be hard enough to make this one seem easy... o.o



                      I might try and isolate specific problem sections for the isolation engine if that's cool with Dossar. Although that might just turn into getting the entire main JS section on there at this rate XD

                        Oh! Try Fighting For Control. The last third of the chart has some moderately dense jumpstream.

                          Besides, I almost feel like you're just an alt of Zekramcross, since you both coincidentally play on the same speedmod (and he's a newer player?) and have relatively similar join dates, with only one account being active. I also recall Zekramcross getting a very slightly worse Ketsarku score (with a miss in it), too. But that's beside the point, since there's no real way to investigate that without video proof.
                          Sorry to bring this up so late

                          But I can vouch it's not an alternate of Richie as I had the pleasure of playing him in Multiplayer last night. The scores he was getting were for the most part under par with what Richie can honestly achieve. Also with how Richie's Mic on his computer works there's no way it could have been him as he was talking to me in the skype call the whole time and I heard none of his key taps, which tells me his brother was on a different computer playing. I also could hear his brother talking at points, he's kind of an ass hat but eh.


                          Here are the scores. Sorry for lack of cropping, so I spoiler-ed them.










                          Also sorry to bring this up here but just to save me from copy pasting I think Divinename should be thrown to D3 asap. He is totally to strong for D1 or 2.

                            Regardless of what's seen here, I still have reasonable doubt. I want raw, insurmountable proof, not word of mouth. There's many coincidences between the two accounts versus what you say.
