was watching a stream on twitch.tv and saw none other than mother****in Patashu in chat...then i suddenly remembered FFR/SM so just thought i'd check up on my (formerly) fellow keyboard warriors

it's been like two and a half years, but i recognize a handful of people still posting here. how's it been?

guess i'll go ahead and add that if there's anyone still here i was at odds with from back whenever, i'd like to apologize for being an immature prick. snotty egotistical adolescent and internet don't mix well, for sure haha

anywho, i don't intend on returning to the arcane art of fingering keyboards...just a distant spectator now, if anything

tl;dr what's up?

Re: yo

doing pretty well, still a prisone-I mean...student

how's the step scene these days? has everyone evolved into keyboard-dominating champions with midare MA and Thaor PA? any of the fossils still playing? (i see you, Dynam0...)

stepfile scene also looks like it's still going strong...any new ~revolutionary~ techniques? or still kickin it old skool?

Re: yo

Oh hi there, people still play stepmania, and some got ridiculously good too

Re: yo

stepmania isn't dead—we are pumping out more simfiles and megapacks than ever before

and people have achieved a new set of high standards for skill (MA and Speed)

Nah, Thaor's abilities still stand the test of time. There are a lot of newer players that are getting quite good, along with some surprising old-timers returning. Some old-time players returned temporarily but left again (e.g. Arch0wl), and others currently seem to be here to stay (e.g. danceguy, Dynam0). Right now, there are some very notably insane SM players - see Staiain's gameplay videos for instance.

Indeed, more people than ever are getting into stepping. Stepping is more of an alternate activity for many players now, as opposed to a few people producing the files for the masses. New techniques? I'm not sure, but there's definitely more stepping in solo (6 keys). And yes, there has been occasional yearnings for old-school stepping (see Rebound's Nostalgia Pack).
