I'll stop dissing it on FFR when an indexer comes even close to my average rank.

I think that index is fun to play on the numpad....ONLY on DDR songs because it's like stepping wif your fingers.

I feel like I'm not getting any better either...maybe worse if anything. Maybe for people who play one handed they should play index first...or just add one finger from their left or right hand (depending on what hand they use in the first place)

I think all of the one handers should just switch playing styles, except for the few big names who actually make it worthwhile reading their posts and seeing their extraordinary scores. Otherwise, I think it's a complete waste of time trying to master the art of one-handed-ness. Forgive me if you disagree but that's my opinion

Novacaine was a 12 back when he used to play often. He could have gotten lower ... probably did. But 12 is the only number he mentioned to me. Some of the more talented indexers like Arch0wl can do jump streams as good as any spreader.

Average rank was introduced while Novacaine was away--his average rank was never anywhere near 12.

And the best and fastest indexers in the world, who are WAAAAAAAAAY better than Arch ever was, can barely pass MSWGO in SM (TONS of jumpstream). Good (not even top tier, just good) spread players can AA it. No indexer can even come remotely close to a good spread player when it comes to jumpstream, period.

My fault I'm thinking of overall. I agree with you with spreaders being better at jump streams than indexers I was just making a point that indexers can do jump streams. MSWGO is was too advanced for any indexer lol.

UPDATE!

Woot.

You have been a member for 1.09 years.
4599 total games played by you since 2005-04-19.
Your grand total score: 571 169 135
Overall FFR Rank: 2500

Yeah.. a 10000 improvement in rank is nice. and I feel I can keep improving even now. Just FC'ed Save Me which was really kinda hard to even stay alive on when I started this post.

Thanks for the advice!

**Tasselfoot** · 12-2-2006, 05:33 PM

you do realize that overall rank is not based on skill.... only based on your grand total score. more you play, more your grand total score increases, more your rank decreases.

congrats though.

**MagicCarpetRide** · 12-2-2006, 05:36 PM

You've played 4500 games and you just combod save me... Kind of surprising i thought you were at a higher level but good job anyways stick with something besides one handed.

Maid · 12-2-2006, 05:59 PM

Would suggest playing SM, it's better in terms of getting skill raise.

Agreed, plus its uber fun because you can change the speed and get bajillions of songs.

anpanman18 · 12-6-2006, 08:48 PM

who are the top one handed players o __ O"?

**Doug31** · 12-6-2006, 08:51 PM

Korny is the best I can think of. Kilga and moogy were good, too, when they played.

ieatyourlvllol · 12-6-2006, 08:54 PM

Other than the people Doug mentioned, the best active one-handers are DarkManticoreX2, Cj_leonine, and Quicker.

I might have forgotten one or two, though.

purebloodtexan · 12-6-2006, 09:23 PM

Keep in mind I've never made a new account to make it look like I'm uber-crazy good over no time at all, like some people. :/

Once you get to the point where you can do For Masters/Guru only songs you really don't notice your improvements. Before it's mostly thrown in your face, because you improve at a much rapid pace

You're still getting better, you're just not going to notice it as much as you used to

sujishishou · 02-4-2007, 09:13 PM

i play one handed its more comfortable because im used to playing classical guitar which has some similar patterns like double strings, arpeggios, and trills which are like jacks.
its just what ur most comfortable playing in my noobtacular opinion
