Binary Rendezvous – #57 [Re-use of last nights write-up ++] & LunaMarionette – #58

Posted in Tokens on July 23rd, 2007

So, I was trying to find a way to write “Binary Rendezvous” in binary… but I realized it would be like 200 characters long, so I decided not to do that. Anyway… the earlier skill token was reduced from 1200 boos to 1100. I didn’t realize that averages no longer give you back life, which makes it MUCH harder to get 1200 boos that I had originally thought. This should make it easier.

The 2 Making April songs for today are both active. Check out the upper left and middle upper of Rock page 1 for those. And check out Making April’s myspace page.

The 2nd token for today is, obviously, Binary Rendezvous. The song is by Yamajet, maker of Ruins. It has a somewhat similar sound to it. Stepfile is by Rednanaki, his 2nd file in the game… and much better than his first, if I may say so. I feel the difficulty is in the mid to high 9 range for this file. While it sounds nothing like Evil Approaches, the file itself has a similar feel, to me. 12 4-framers, 190bpm. Few odd 32nds. You get the idea. To unlock it, Full Combo Ruins with under 10 boos.

-Tass

LunaMarionette is another very rockin’ J-Rock piece by AKHT (site under construction). I rated it a 9, but I have a feeling you all will feel the song and steps merit a low 10. It’s 180bpm, and starts off with a nice long trill. From there, it has a ton of 3 and 5 note bursts ending in jumps. 0 4-framers, thankfully. The file is by Brilliant Dynamite Neon. Many of you may notice that the trill at the start starts in the middle… well, yes. This is a perfect example of why I tell stepfile authors to leave 2 seconds of blank space at the start of their file; the converter cuts off anything in the 1st 1.5 seconds.

This token unlock is our 2nd of the “perfect imperfection” type. You need to play Moonbeam (cause Moon and Luna… you get it), found at the end of Dance1. Get exactly 444 misses, exactly a combo of 4, and less than 440 perfects (I couldn’t resist the perfect part, since it made so many 4′s in the req). This does force you to get a few mandatory goods, but not many at all… most of you will likely get them automatically. As with the Destiny v2 token, there IS a specific trick to meeting this req. I will say that it is slightly more complicated than the trick for Destiny v2, but along the same lines. And you do need to pass the song (no auto-fail tricks). I’d also appreciate it if you didn’t post how you got it, make it a bit harder for those who can’t figure it out themselves. I do have a feeling that the way I did this req is not the only way though. I’ll be doing some testing to see if I’m correct.

2 new Making April songs are also available in Rock. 2nd token for today will be out later.

-Tass, take 2.

  1. lol

  2. cool

  3. yay

  4. lol and i got it when it was 1200.

    i woulda got it at 1100 first try.

  5. wow O.o

  6. WHAT

  7. rawks

  8. yay skillz

  9. 2nd one to AAA new driveway song. =)

    sightread aaa’s ftw!

  10. dumb trcks

  11. I Can’t figure out the trick. Oh well. Hope I get it later.

  12. wheres ruins?

  13. Misc.

  14. tried a few other ways…
    442 misses with 4 combo one way
    443 misses with 4 combo the opposite of that way
    441 misses with 4 combo the opposite of the correct way

    those are the 3 easiest ways i can think of. glad to see that none of them give 444. :) but, let me assure you… there IS a way to do it, just like Destiny v2, so that you don’t have to fudge with misses and whatnot. Play the whole song through, etc etc, you will get 444 doing it my way. very easy if you know the trick.

  15. Freaking Ruins.

  16. I found the 443 misses way, and then proceeded to redo it missing an extra note. I’m such a cheater.

    I forsee controversy over lunamarionette…if my memory serves me well.

  17. …. :( ill never get this. i suck at tricks. :(

  18. Trying to figure out this trick is like trying to figure out someone’s password through random guessing if you ask me -.-

  19. Gives up.

  20. YAY! got them both! Moonbeam took a few tries but i figured it. Good stuff TASS!

  21. Both of them were actually pretty easy. The Moonbeam one took me one try to figure out how to do it, and one more try to actually do it.

    Ruins took me a while because I kept missing at the end. >_

  22. tried to play only red & yellow was to hard
    tried up & down / left right /left down /right up
    didnt get 444..
