    a question for masters

    Hello,
    I don't think i'm a noob anymore but this is kinda noob question.. :P

    SO! Has anyone ever mastered FFR without the help of stepmania? Has someone 100% FFR player AAA'd a 85+ difficulty song? I started rithum gaming with FFR and first time heard about SM in this site. That lead to a terrible accuracy, as I haven't had a chance to try hit marvs. Usually I hit one perf out of 7 marvs in SM. In FFR I keep hitting random goods in really easy patterns, which bugs me hard.

    I've noticed myself that after a few weeks of SM my scores in FFR will sky-rocket. Now after a long break I've been playing for two months and haven't noticed much improvement about my skills.

Play them for hours. Play ones you have to struggle to SDG, and play ones hard enough to make your hands and arms burn. Then play them some more. Then, the day after the next, play them again. If you aren't already doing this, you can't say you're stuck. Plateauing doesn't really exist, if you aren't improving it means you haven't put in the effort needed to improve, or your effort has been misapplied. It's more of a problem at really high levels, but never totally concrete.

      MrPreggers/Tim Allen, Jerry DB and subin did get a couple of FGOs/difficulty 85+ files without Stepmania, those are just the people I can recall off the top of my head though.

      SM's really ideal for speed training, that's pretty much it haha. You'll lose some accuracy though.

                  But then my lady friend got pissed off I was playing FFR instead of playing her. Then for the rest of the night she played the 'Only want me for my body' card and I didn't get to sleep with blankets that night.

                      actually i was only able to get up to an 84 AAA :s missed out on a few others but it's definitely possible to AAA everything without SM as long as you play enough

                                      it probably has to do w/ SM having many more 80+ files than ffr. So you can push yourself a lot of different ways before mindblocking every file
