    Accuracy / Keyboard

    So.. I've been playing FFR for a while now.. and I've noticed something (kind of weird?)
    If you take a good look at the image below, I only have high ranks on FGOs



    While having like 20 something AAA's
    So I wanted to ask the people who have 300+ AAA's, how do you guys practice timing / accuracy?

    I can never seem to AAA easy songs because.. I just can't. I get goods here and there at the most random places :P

    But because not that many people can AAA FGOs, I end up getting a better rank (15~100s)

    And I think the problem is mainly due to my keyboard so..

    Can anyone suggest some good keyboards? (Max price: $80)
    Flat keys/bulky keys are both fine.

    i try more then once on easy songs
    but those fgo scores are amazing

    edit: as for a keyboard, try something like smart office keyboard EZ-8000 (dunno the price but it's an awesome keyboard! )
    AAAs: 817
    Difficulty 66+ AAAs: 35
    Best AAA: Nomina Nuda Tenemus (81)

      Go with a Razr Tarantula Keyboard. It works wonders for me and I am a one-hander.

        Razr Tarantula -- I heard from my friends that it breaks down easily
        Can anyone confirm this?
        I'd buy it if it didn't break down so easily (as my friends have stated)

            So I should get a Verbatim Keyboard to AAA up to 9's
            then a fancy Razr Tarantula for FMO/FGO's?
            Got it.

              I don't think the keyboard is the issue

                I think it is

                But on my friends keyboard (plugged into my laptop) I can get 30 goods or less on Schmollbluk :P

                      If you want the ultimate keyboard...get a laptop (EDIT: seems you already have one...). The combination of the built-in keys and the flatness make it the absolute best, imo. Some will argue that there are alternative USB keyboards that are equivalent, or perhaps even better. I'm just speaking from my own experience though - I prefer a laptop keyboard.

                      I think I'm qualified to speak here since I've got like 600 AAAs, so a few things first...

                      1. Patience.

                      2. Patience.

                      3. Patie...you get the point?

                      Also, AAAing is a skill, and it requires you to develop it, hone it, and practice it. If you're achieving those caliber scores on FGOs, then I don't think your keyboard is really an issue, at least regarding your input tolerance. Perhaps there is a small issue with the accuracy, but I'm kind of skeptical. I think the problem is with you more than it is with your keyboard.

                      EDIT: Ninja'd by hi_top. Cool.

                            Well if you change your mind again and want a new keyboard, i've been using my logitech g15 ever since i started playing and for accuracy theres nothing better. The keys never get stuck or anything. The only problem is you cant play fast stuff with it.
