Mmkay, two more:
Kiss Me Red (Expert): 92.72%
ROMeo & Juli8 (Expert): 93.88%

I think my FA is improving more than my ability to beat hard songs. Tell still eludes me...grr...

Daaaaavid...you should go back to hard mode, and try to * and ** things. It helped my Expert FA majorly.

Oh, and for tell, just treat the stepjumps parts like VerTex triplets kind of - it worked for me. =P

Trust me...I can't pass hard songs anymore but my FA has been amazing recently. You'd much rather have the FA than the stamina...when tournaments come...you're going to be glad you have FA better than the other person rather than godly stamina.

At the tourny I went to 2 days ago, there was a no bar 8 year old kid half my size, who has 1 excellent on Zodiac (Hard), but the only problem is that since his legs are so little and he can't use the bar, he can pass ITG 10's and that's it. That's why I used Utopia against him for a gaurenteed win. xD

EDIT: Oh, my point - I forgot. It's good to have the FA, but the only reason I got third and he didn't is because when people used 11's on him, he lost because he couldn't pass them. So a little bit of both is necessary. =P

I was originally going to say you need decent stamina...but I'm more towards FA since I have stamina to do 11s and 12s...not like really hard ones though.'

Edit: So what I'm trying to get at is....nevermind..I screwed myself over.

lol, yes, I need to improve both stamina and FA. Go me.
Yeah, DarkCore, I really should do that...I've been lazy. E10.gif Well, I have a challenge to ** PA Theme anyway. Send me a FA challenge or something.
It's the run with the mines that screw me over in Tell, not the jumps, really.

So in short:
I need to improve my stamina to get past songs like Pandy Hard and HotN.
And I need the FA to actually score well on songs I'm sucking at like Utopia and Xuxa, as well as easy songs.

Off to work. biggrin.gif

EDIT: I've also found that flatfooting has helped with my FA; it was awful before, now it's only bad.

Start off slow when you're trying to improve your FA. I started with 8 and 9 block songs first to help with my FA. And it helped. I got like 3 doule-stars like that (I recommend Mellow and Rom-eo and Juli8). Jumping to 11's right away might not be such a smart idea. riiight.gif

And trust me. I'm lazier than you.

EDIT: I didn't realize this, but I sort of summed up what DarkCore said without knowing. Whoops.

Day 1 of "davidyko actually starts listening to people and starts working on FA in hard mode." biggrin.gif
Soo...let's see...all songs on Hard.

S+
Charlene - 94.86%
Liquid Moon - 94.97%
Kiss Me Red - 95.40%
ROMeo & Juli8 - 94.03%
Why Me - 94.51%

Stars
Crazy - 96.45%

Two-Stars
PA Theme - 98.12%

I had a 2068 combo at one point, highest ever.
So yes, I still need to work on my FA. Grr.

No. I wouldn't do that. Timing windows at the arcade are strict enough to improve your accuracy. Its home versions that spoil you with its outrageously lenient timing.

I say pick a game. Either you like 7 footers or 12 footers.

Anyway, I just got 99.58 on Sweet World and a couple other things. I almost quadded high and ize pie, and all kinds of other stuff. Oh well. Oh and 94.8 with like 4 misses in the end run, without using mirror.

Apoc's first ITG experience ever occurred yesterday!! I stole ITG PS2 from my friend, who wants it back already but may never see it again because it's SO FREAKIN AWESOME..!

The only memorably high score I got was a 95.76 on Disconnected -hyper- (Hard). More numbers and more songs to come.

More non-FA scores:

Lemmings on the Run (Expert) - 84.95%. I'm absolute rubbish at this.
Euphoria (Hard) - 90.36% Still pretty bad.
Funk Factory (Expert) - 89.65% Managed to scrape an S-.
No. 1 Nation (Expert) - 89.01% Was amazed at the score.
Don't Promise Me (Hard) - 92.76%, I was tired out from Xuxa and Utopia.
As my last song, I played Pandy Hard, and amazingly re-passed it for the first time on my Blueshark. It was in the low-60s, not enough to improve my record of 66 (on my old Ignition), but it was a start. How I did it? I feel really stupid for not noticing this earlier, but crouching down slightly during runs = win.

EDIT: Hmm, I now have 20 S's, and 20 A's on ITG Home Expert. Interesting.

God, I haven't been here in FOREVER. Too much IIDX, I suppose.

Anyway, I went to a place with a REAL ITG2 DEDICAB YAYZZZ
and my usb drive worked and everything! IT WAS THE REAL DEAL

So without further ado here are my abysmally crappy scores (this is what happens when you don't play arrowsmash for 2 months):

I actually picked this song on accident (wrong button, I was trying to change sort)


I suck at FA


I can't believe I FC'd with all the random 64th crap in here


MY FIRST 11! No mines, so it doesn't really count, but yes this is my first 11 pass on foot.

Man, Sweet World is very difficult to FA, so that's a very impressive score. What was your 94.8 on?
