SM Orbular is a hot skin, well, at least less visually abstract and obstructive than arrows anyways.

Never even bothered with attempting the other skins. Gonna check them out.

hi Phynx, hi everyone!

Wait... wait. Your name tastes all kinds of familiar. I'm gonna sleep like shit now because my brain is overtiming my memory processes. HELP ME REMEBER.

Edit: HOLY FUCK ICYWORLD! I remember now. Fragments of the past but yeah, it's slowly returning.

Indeed thank you! I'm going to make a conceited effort to stay back for a longer haul. I've done a lot of maturation over the decade and feel like my past won't haunt me here anymore. I genuinely want to be a part of this community again, not only in game play but in the forums as well.

Consider this comeback a huge reset button for me and FFR.

Heya Phynx!


I've tried to come back a few times, but it never stuck. Mostly because I would come back for the official tournaments and get destroyed. I'd definitely say come back for your own fun and nothing competitive

One thing that i'll mention is that in individual song options, there's a way to save your offsets per song, and as someone who heavily relies on visual+audio lineup, I generally see offsets all over the place with different songs. a.k.a. I can confirm that there's large variance within the song list for offsets.

for global offset, I usually adjust by increments of .5, -.5 when notes are too late (too far down the screen when timing should be correct) and +.5 when notes are early (past receptors too far)

then after getting that visual lineup down, then I let the engine figure out the calculated judge offset and I set that.

Patience. Lots and lots of patience.

And maybe a few cans of Monster energy. I don't know.

Oh yeah, I feel ya' there. Hell nah on the tournaments for now but I do find that I have a LOT more motivation when I'm vs. someone in multiplayer. I also am forced to finish a song instead of getting frustrated and backing out. I'll be heavy in MP for a while lol.

Edit - I forgot to say HEY! Lmao, so polite I am.

Yeah so that per song offset is something I'm gonna have to figure out. My question is, are those custom offsets saved somewhere or like, if I logoff will I have to redo all of them? I'm curious how safe customizing offsets per song is for the long-term. Until I figure all that out, I've been dicking with the global offset for the time being.

I'm an AMP energy guy. But all the same, my patience with myself is limited so I'm working on that lmao.

It's some local storage, so as long as you're using the same client, those will preserve between sessions (both global and song offset will be saved for each song) so feel free to go crazy with that.
