Default {Red Alert}

This VD song really seems like it should be challenging. I'm not even close to FC'ing it, and I know that if I whore pretty much any VD song for awhile I'll be able to FC it. Thoughts? Just seems like a really tough VD to me.

If Red Alert was a syrup, it'd be really good.

It's so short and the spread stream is easy peasy. Is it harder than the easiest Challenging song?

there is a thread all for discussions like this. its the difficulties thread. it's stickied.

i'm pretty sure if you go through it, there even have been a few posts about red alert in it.

it's definitely a VD. just a hard one. length is the major factor. also that there is only about 120 or so notes in the stream, plus its a pretty straight forward stream. the one fact that might make it a challenging is that it has a few 4 framers in the stream, from being 182 bpm. but not nearly enough to merit being a 9 vs the other factors. plus, nothing else is hard in the file to FC except for the stream... apart from one set of 8th jumps that is a 4 framer.

Yeah its the 4-framers that get me. Most of the other stuff is still tough, i can barely keep up with it. But its a good song for someone of my skill level.

How many still images are flashed before your eyes to create the image of a moving object.

Each arrow has a frame window to hit it.

So as frames progress it would be like,

Average
Good
Perfect
Perfect
Perfect
Good

Or something like that. Each one using one frame.

1,2,3, ect. framers are when frames from previous arrows overlap each other and glitch making them appear to be one frame for two arrows, hence then average/miss glitch.

I'm such a noob. I typed the word frame so much it doesn't look right when I type it.

Yea Tass is right...
But also agreed with Customstuff. I can FC Delirium and {Blaze} but not {Red Alert}. Always wondering how I miss the stream. It isn't so special...

If you aren't already doing this, you can't say you're stuck. Plateauing doesn't really exist, if you aren't improving it means you haven't put in the effort needed to improve, or your effort has been misapplied. It's more of a problem at really high levels, but never totally concrete.
