    Re: Left handed = better at FFR?

    Left handed. A day or so off of Shash's join date.

    Have only been playing for the recent 8-6 months, I adapted quicker than any of my friends whom are all right handed.
    That's cool Mario, but how come whenever you eat mushrooms, everything gets bigger but your dick?

          May have no correlation but if it does I would assume that the reflexes that he aquired from tetris would have helped tons.
          Piano playing helped more, I think...although I've basically quit. Tetris probably helped a bit too.

          But what probably helped the most is my ~20,000 played games. Nothing beats pure practice XD

            Insane whorage.
            I haven't even played 5000 including before I registered and thought FFR wasn't free.

            lefty, don't play as much anymore.

                I'm left-handed and I hit a plateau in the near spring, when I switched styles from index to 3-fingered. This is when I began to accelerate my button-pressing skills that would undoubtedly be so important in the future. Becoming more apt to 3-fingered happened within a span of about two weeks.

                Started in early September 05.

                    Well, look at how many games played and rank, I figure, darkshark. I've ~2800 games played and ~1000 rank. lefty, as I said. Meno did ~4300 songs and ranked ~3000...

                    Ionno, it's up to you.

                      we actually did the study in class today, where everyone got to play ffr lol, no one had played before, and 6 people in the class were left handed (out of 31)
                      and the top 4 scores came from the left handers xD
                      Yes, it probably does understand the music better, but it's not going to manifest itself as better playing by left handers.

                      And that could happen by complete chance. You also don't know if they were predisposed to any kinds of musical training either.



                      Right handed people don't play any worse than left handed people on the piano or any other instrument.

                        Tasselfoot is one good example, in a matter of like a month or two he went from being "ohlolol mod" to "omfg competition". but yes reach i see what you're getting at, and pure practice does have alot to do with it, and shash can die with his 20k games in half the time it should take. lolol <3 shash

                          I was tossing scores back and forth with Tass during that time... I pretty much counter out his improvement as the right handed guy who got better at essentially the same rate.

                              Passed MSWGO (on SM) one handed in less than a full year of playing any type of bemani (I never played any instrument either).

                              For those of you who don't know, I'm the only known person that has accomplished that.

                              Also I'm right handed. 95% of skill correlates on practice.
                              YOU JUST WON THE GAME! CONGRATULATIONS!
