    Modest Improvement: The Thread

    I didn't really want to clog up the sm scores thread too much so people can look here if they want to.


    0.9x rate


    Did this one as a warmup the other day. I thought it was slower than 200bpm when I was playing it so I was surprised to get so close to an AA. It's a big improvement over my last run of it.


    Working the stamina and the jumpstream. MA is terrible but meh


    This one felt like it came out of nowhere 'cause I decided to try it once. Beats my previous attempt by a lot. I felt like I could actually keep up way better.


    I think this is 240bpm jumpstream? This 1.0 rate beats my last 0.9x try.

      Re: Modest Improvement: The Thread

      thx staiain

      Been wanting the AA on this for a while


      I'm really close to AAing this, the 32nds in the middle are tricky


      1.1x rate, not bad, didn't expect to AA but I'll take it


      0.9x rate, I'm not good enough for 1.0 yet. Still improving on it though.


      Actually expected to A but I'll take a marginal improvement in speed/control lol.


      First time playing on 1.0, usually I'm 0.9ing this but it's not so bad for me now


      Improving stamina here


      Better than yesterday


      0.9x rate, I like files like these


      aaand my best score here today so far I'd say, finally AA'd

        Re: Modest Improvement: The Thread

        A few more from my session today, might do some later as well


        Marginal improvement over my previous #1


        This is like 90.56% DP now. I'll probably AA soon if I keep playing.


        Tried playing this yesterday and bombed the AA but got it today.

          Re: Modest Improvement: The Thread

          More improvement, although I'm not getting many AA's still, I'm getting better





          First pass.


          Definitely better than my previous best on 1.0


          First time playing this


          First time passing this. The end is hard but not overwhelming anymore


          Damn I think I'm really close to an AA on this one, was a bit disappointed but I was reading it much better


          I really want someone to chart the full song of this lol. I like the whole song. I'm not that great at the hands yet though


          A bit of an improvement over my previous best. Comboing some stuff I couldn't combo before.


          This 1.0 play beats my 0.9 record ha.


          First time playing this too I think.


          Getting a little better at reading.


          First pass of this. I almost pushed myself too far with this one too heh.

            Re: Modest Improvement: The Thread

            A few more improvements, couldn't play too much this time

            Couldn't AA last time I tried this


            Damn this is like 92.82%, I missed in a couple of dumb spots. I can AA this


            This is like 90.44%

                Thanks. Yeah I should do that. I'm having trouble editing the default theme anyway. Maybe I can make another one work.

                  Re: Modest Improvement: The Thread

                  I'd recommend til death at the moment, it's a great theme and super quick to set up.

                  Just as an example though, I know of two versions of Chipstream... Three technically, cause there's one in nuclear blast (I assume this is the one ur playing, based on the banner) that has two difficulties, but there's also a version in tachyon gamma so it's a Lil confusing tbh fam

                    Re: Modest Improvement: The Thread

                    Yeah it's the nuclear blast version, and I'd use that theme, but I'm on 3.95.. I might try giving sm5 another go though. I tried it before but the theme that staiain used definitely didn't work for my plays.

                    Anywho, more scores

                    This is a huuuge improvement over my last run of it, which was a B. This is 89.56%


                    I'm kind-of keeping up with it but I lose it in the 32nds and start cb rushing a bit lol.


                    1.1x rate. I think this is alright


                    92.65%, rip aa

                      Re: Modest Improvement: The Thread

                      I only got like a couple scores I thought were worth posting

                      Icy X's The Fool 0.9x, 88.6%


                      I thought this was pretty good, 88.3%

                        Re: Modest Improvement: The Thread

                        Okay so I cleaned up the thread a little bit with the bigger sets of scores at least. Got some pretty good stuff recently.

                        NB version, 91.3%


                        90.1%


                        87.8%, I couldn't even A this before on 1.0


                        90.71%, much improved from last time, I feel like my reading got a bit of a boost

                            Yeah, that Paparazzi is really solid. Good stuff, dude.

                            Also, you should try some accuracy stuff that's slightly below that range to get your MA/PA down. It makes a huge difference in the long run, trust me haha.

                              Haven't tried it since the 24th but here's my score that day on it

                              Thanks. Yeah I have a problem with trying to improve my speed more than my accuracy atm but I like going fast. I'm just not used to this keyboard yet I think, or maybe I need to fiddle with my global offset a bit. It seems like if I don't bottom the key out I don't have a good reference for when I bring my finger back up, or if I don't have it at the right height. Maybe even my cmod could be sped up a little bit. I tried 775 for a while but that was a little too much for me. Maybe C760 or C765 would be good to try.

                              But yeah, I got some more scores here

                              1.1x rate, I thought this was decent for one try


                              89%, a little improvement


                              second time playing, 84.6%


                              Yolo4 version, 89.17%


                              1.1x rate, 96.49%. I tried 1.2 once but I got wrecked heh. Maybe I'll try 1.2 again soon.
