one handers... crazy

Re: one handers... crazy

I'm just sayin'...how many people do you see in the Tiers and on the Top 100 AAA list that are one handed? At most, a small handful - probably no more than a dozen.

I'm not saying they aren't talented, don't get me wrong, but spread players do have a higher potential and a higher skill level. I've been around here long enough to appreciate good one handed scores. I know what is good and bad for those players, and from my honest observations, their skill levels are not as high as mine and I'm not even in a Tier.

EDIT: As a note, let it be known that I do not think that playing one handed is a disadvantage in any way. It's a personal choice that should not make getting a full combo on a song better than a spread players AAA on the same song.

"That's because you use two hands." or something of that sort.
EDIT: Do I need a comma before or? I don't know...

No. 'Something of that sort' is considered a fragment.

"Oh, I'm one-handed, and look, I got this and this and this... what about you?" ; "That's because you use two hands."

A semicolon is your best bet.

Re: one handers... crazy

I started off as one handed, and if I switched, I could probably become better. But I'm too lazy/impatient to switch now. In other words, I have become content with my mediocrity.

Re: one handers... crazy

I agree with potentially everyones point of view so far..
There is no Disadvantage..
There is no need to gloat about what you have.
One Handers do take longer to proceed with skill.. But that is to those who don't have a Constant worry about being better..
I mean look at Bynary..
I was just a little off his skill Lvl and then BAM
He just kept playing and playing.. Now I can't keep up with him.

I'm Glad one handers are being noticed.. But also, it's not completely amazing.. cause just like in life nothing is impossible to be done.

Re: one handers... crazy

I one hand. I guess it just comes more naturally to some people more than others

Re: one handers... crazy

Playing one handed isn't hard at all...

then why did you switch to spread?

[Zageron]

Re: one handers... crazy

There are like 7 or 8 hard core one handers right now. The rest have ether quit, changed over, or aren't keeping up with us. I remember when we were like your descriptions state, but I'd say 3 or 4 of us have matured a lot in the past while.

(I don't mean to take credit, but it's probably my fault for the maturing xD. Correct me if I'm wrong.)

Re: one handers... crazy

Despite the fact that I play one handed, I personally find it very annoying when people brag about playing one handed in every score they post. There is nothing wrong in letting people know you play one handed, but constantly boasting about it is stupid. If you choose to play one handed, then don't shove it in everybody's faces. It's your choice.

I don't feel playing with one or two hands are as different from each other as everybody says. The physical limitations for one hand are yet to be determined, and with enough practice, you can get into T4 and beyond, one hand or two. In fact, I know a one hander who is almost T3.

When a spread player tells a person to switch to spread, I say you need to **** off. IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT STYLE YOU PLAY. Enjoying the game for what it is is more important than being the best, and if you feel that you need to be the best, then you either stay with what style you were playing, or switch to another.

As nice as it is to hear compliments regarding how insane a score is for being one handed, unless it breaks new ground for that specific playing style, just treat it as if it were done by any other playing style. It's just a game, and there is absolutely nothing amazing about a great score that was done with a different playing style, simply for the fact that a lot of practice was behind it, just like any other playing style.


Honestly, I consider people bragging about their scores being one handed as annoying as a player telling you to switch to spread...because it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if you play one handed, nor what style you play.

EDIT: It's fine to be proud of your playing style, but if you are elitest about it, then don't bother mentioning it to people. Playing one handed doesn't make your scores more amazing, so get over yourself and quit rubbing it in.

I've seen a boast or two slip out of you even, but I share the same opinion.

I'm sure there has been. My opinion gradually formed in the past couple months, once I had seen and learned more of the FFR community. I'm glad you do, though. I don't see why some people make such a big deal about their scores being one handed. It's fine to be known for being a one hander and/or a pro of that specific style, but don't rub it in.

Re: one handers... crazy

I only care about how well you do, regardless of how you do it..

I feel the same way, I used to be an avid one hander, but now I look back on it and I don't really see the point to sticking with it other than it was more "natural" for me than spread at the time, and the only reason I didn't start spread sooner was because I couldn't install hotkeys o_O

Re: one handers... crazy

then why did you switch to spread?

because Vertex Beta was gay.

Once again, Bynary hit it on the dot. I agree with him 100% and that is all there is to it.
