*EDIT BY SYNTH* Double setup is under investigation. Trying to decide if it should be allowed or not.

Re: About double setup.

sweet. I almost got those 64ths in crowdpleaser. I only have like 7 misses with double set up.

Re: About double setup.

Double setup is using both the numpad and the arrow keys at the same time to play...or any eight keys on the keyboard, for that matter.

To clarify, more than double is not ok because it requires the use of an external program or source. Also, mapping a key to more than one arrow is still definitely cheating.

Re: About double setup.

so people might start whoring CP just cause it might be possible to double setup combo the 64ths... how fun

Re: About double setup.

What combination of keys you use should be up to you. At least that is my opinion. Also, if people think I am wrong on this, lets discuss it. Sometimes I don't fully understand the dynamics.

Re: About double setup.

Yeah I'm pretty sure that double setups should be considered cheating as they always were (weren't they?).

Well I quickly checked one song, which was Chrono Trigger, and yeah... if double setup's gonna be legal... then you should be able to fc it now...

Edit: I made a junk score to see if it's possible without making top 10

Re: About double setup.

My only problem with it being cheating is that it's a default, game-given setup (numpad + arrow keys), and that it's nearly impossible to detect.

Oh, and you could theoretically do the same thing on one key, although it's very hard to get that to actually register correctly. IMO, it'd be absolutely ridiculous to call THAT cheating.

Kotarou: no. it's impossible to avoid a miss on the 8 glitched arrows, period, as far as I know.

Re: About double setup.

It should definately be considiered cheating. Having eight fingers on eight seperate keys gives an unfair advantage considering that you can respond twice as quickly if you have two keys representing one arrow.

Re: About double setup.

well, it was pretty easy to combo one of them then.

Re: About double setup.

ya i dont think it should be allowed.

Re: About double setup.

show me an SS with under 8 misses then.

I think you thought you combo'd one but didn't. The first jack doesn't have one, FYI.

I can't cause I'm only good at Gradeus >< plus I prefer index, but we'll see...

Edit: Playing CT made me realize... that I've never even played this song before...
