    Advice on how to AAA better?

    Anybody and everybody, how do you AAA songs? I only have 3 right now but I'm seeing that there are a bunch of ways to make it easier / harder, mini, putting it on 1.75, that kind of stuff, just wondering what you all do personally, because I'm stuck right now on this one song. ? Thank you...

      Practice the song with Dark enabled, get a feel for when you should hit the arrows on different songs, seeing as they aren't always on the right beat.
      Turn it off, and you should get more perfects. This won't be an instant improvement, but it will help in the future.
      I myself play on dizzy w/ dark @ x2.00 for fun, but I've found it has helped me alot with timing.
      (Not too sure if dizzy has anything to do with it but it's fun XD)

          For me I use 1.5x and thats it. Though the autofail does help.

              Don't get angry.

                How come Dark helps?
                I tried it, and was unsure as to how it helps.

                  By "kind of keyboard" they mean "USB, laptop, or <whatever you call the keyboard-specific cable>"

                  And, if you want a complete answer, just search for "AAA," "improve my PA," or "my PA sucks" and you should come up with hundreds of other threads asking the same question.
                  I fail to AAA.

                        "Oh, just my cock." Replied Foil.
                        "That just will not do." was keywii's response as she lunged for the scissors, pulled the blades apart, and clamped them down on the base of foil's shaft. Blood start gushing out of the wound where his penis used to be.
                        "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Yelled Foil in horror.
                        "Don't worry. I'm a wizard" uttered Keywii. And with that, Foil's penis grew back.

                          Re: Advice on how to AAA better?

                          A few things to help you:

                          1. Use a speed mod. Start at 1.25, and then work your way up to a comfortable speed for you. Most people use 1.5, or 1.75. I myself prefer 1.5.
                          2. Have patience. I've played 22,900 games and I only have 150 public AAA's. It takes more than 1 try.
                          3. Focus.

                          You'd be surprised how easily you get distracted and it doesn't have to be anything big, it could just be a car passing by that gets a small piece of your attention and that's when you get that Good.

                            im not amazingly good at AAAs but right now im getting tons of blackflags ( 1 good only)

                            some keys to consider, if it helps, tap harder so you can hear yourself tapping. it gives you a stable beat. and yes, AAA do get easier if you play on faster speeds, I myself prefer 1.75/2.0 Also, CALM THE FRIK DOWN! jesus, when i started to AAA a long time ago, i was all shakey and sweating buckets...NO, just calm down, listen and tap to the beat.
