the darkness laser/pettanko thread

[Bursurk_Lurk]

FYI darkness laser/pettanko is when you play spread using your pinky- and ring-fingers. It's really fun. Here's some scores:

[NuclearShadow]

i actually tried this a couple weeks ago and couldnt do it well so i got mad and just tried middle finger ring finger =(

[Dynam0]

Some index players should try using just thumbs :P

[Rewind690]

Lmao, i gotta try that.

[Rebirth0]

I still think that's insane, I can't play with pinky/ring fingers.

[Dazzled]

Wtf ? Those are sick :O

First time ever doing this. I failed right away, but right after that my lifebar went up, and i survived untill the end, where my fingers just refused to work.

I do that and i'm not an indexer...

I call it thumbdexing :P

Will post scores in a bit from both styles :P

darkness laser/pettanko makes my fingers rebel against the queen, they want independance (this is a joke, I have trouble separating the fingers, therefore they are not independant.)

For thumbs, it is good to either make fists, or to put another finger on them to brace them so you don't hurt yourself.

I passed a song



Look, it's PR #2

[Hr2]

Ok, blurk, you're still the best at your own game. But you have some stiff competition coming from me.


o snap first try


second try


stamina, yep i have it too

Video of Tougen 0 A'ed, I AAed it on vid but you couldn't see fingers well so I redid it. I show the AA score in the video. I got 93.6mil i think on the vid, and 95mil for the AA.

This style isn't hard, it is 100% fun :>

Hmm very cool seeing more ppl actually trying this, I thought everyone would just lol at blurk and then ignore him as usual xD, I have to try this soon.
And it needs to be called pettanko, not darkness laser since pettanko is so much easier saying, now if some ppl actually would occasionally start playing this way xD

[Dazzled]

Ehh, where do you guys get feeling for this

My ring + pinky are so stiff, I can barely move those

[ninshikou]

Decided to join this club, really fun style. To see how I stacked up, I just played whatever songs Hr2 did. All first try, etc. I swear I will never AA anything, my pinky seems to involuntarily press keys.





I guess my only tip so far is to treat the LD and UR trills as jumps.

EDIT: Another first try with this new style. Pettanko makes SM fun. =)

[Hr2]

Go away HST :< You and your automatically better than me because you're 10x better than me at stepmania :<

Nice good counts, I can't time it that well on these fingers. It is funny how people failed delirium rofl

[ninshikou]

Hr2, you have insane jacking ability though. I still don't get how you can pass stuff like Porco dio EDIT. I fail within the 2 wave of jacks. :<

Anyway, one more score, I have to go to sleep. DST sux.


Mad? You bet... XD

[dascookieman]

Haha that seems like a pretty cool pettanko score pedro. Hr2 I loved your vid haha, I request more vids with people talking while playing, it's so amusing . The angle and quality was great as well.

[ninshikou]

Hr2, nice video. I guess I should do a vid for legitimacy reasons. Talking while playing is a nice bonus since it is amusing.

[Hr2]

I love to talk while playing because...

1) I can
2) Silent videos are boring
3) It is fun for all

[Bursurk_Lurk]

Pettanko makes SM more fun indeed

I'm gonna try the same sims you guys have tried and see if stand any chance. They look really good.
