    Re: 12 Songs of FFRmas Discussion

    See You Dance is back down in my range. It's pretty good. I had some trouble sightreading it, and got something like 10 misses with 13 boos the first time through. The 16th patterns caught me off guard, and I'm pretty sure the double/single/double/single/double type patterns caused the most of the boos. It looked like that score didn't get recorded though. I tried again, knowing to watch for the 16th patterns, and that a little practice would help me reduce the boos. I did much better, with just 1 miss and 1 boo. I know the problem spot now -- the third 16th pattern, near the end and like ~410 arrows in, which is on the up and down keys. I think the 8th pattern lead-in is putting my fingers in a position where it's hard for me to switch and get the 16ths when they come in. I picked up on the rhythm of the 16th patterns quickly enough, so I'm sure I can get this last one. It may just take a little practice to learn how I should position my fingers at that stage.

    Edit: It took a few more tries, aborting sometimes because I was annoyed at missing the last 16th pattern, but I finally got the FC. I'm not sure I could do it consistently, because I think I need a little more work on that last 16th pattern. My score wasn't that great -- I got 1 boo and 1 average (17 good) -- but it's similar to other songs in the same difficulty range, and hopefully with a little more practice I'll get better scores.

      It may be a bit late, but I'd like to send out thanks to the FFR crew for adding my songs to their excellent flash game. Great steps too, I had a lot of fun despite not being a good FFR player. Certainly is great hearing everyone enjoy the tunes (I hope!) Though it's a shame no one really notified me about them...

        This new one...

        I only played it once, but it seemed that the arrows didn't really go to anything. Like... they were on beat, but it seemed like just random 8th streams that went to nothing.

        And honestly, I don't care enough to play it again to check if they actually went to something that I didn't hear the first time.

          Sanxion... please feel free to contact me on AIM (Tasselfoot) about any issue you may have. I can also explain about the notification.


          ALSO... Day 8 will be out any minute. January's Song by The Fat's Sabbobah! File by Jimerax. Very unique sound, found in Misc. easy 3, IMO. AAAd after a buttload of runs... but I'm AWFUL that that type of 8th note run at the end.
          RIP

                the breakbeat isn't done exactly correctly... for sure there's an extra note at the end of one of the sixteenth bursts, hard to say what else problems might be without looking at it.

                jumpstream is somewhat excusable given that the file would have been really boring if the song were followed literally.

                          I stepped it like 2 days ago lol.

                          This song is a bit hard to get the rhythm but still steps go with some part of the music, so yea.

                            A song by The Fats Sabobah? I knew what to expect here. I am not the biggest fan of TFS songs. This is one of those songs I will play once or twice to FC and then stay away from for a long, long time.

                            The steps were respectable and about par for a Difficult song, except... oh my god... I almost forgot how much I HATE airs added onto trills and rolls. They get me every time. And this song had *plenty* of those. Sorry to say it, but Jimerax is probably one of the steppers I'm going to avoid.

                            None of the songs the last 5 days have gotten me off my Horizon addiction.

                              If January's Song is around the borderline between 3 and 3.5 difficulty, it's probably a bit out of my FC range. I only played it once so far, just to try it out, and didn't do very well (lots of misses and boos). When the 16ths kicked in, I kind of got lost. The double/single/double/single/etc. pattern seems to be kind of popular in recent songs, and it sometimes gives me trouble. Sometimes I just hit doubles for all of them and take the point deductions just to keep the combo. As I get more familiar with the song and its patterns, I start to hit the arrows properly. Hopefully some practice will boost my score on this one. Normally I do need some practice to get a decent score; sightreading well here is tough for me.

                                Basically it's quite meaningless to avoid songs by the step author if it's just a skill problem.

                                It will be kinda boring if there's no double on it.
                                Plus they aren't jumpstreams, since they are 8ths and neither fast nor long.
