      steriod injections in your fingers. You'll AAA Pants.

      Seriously, just play some songs that are 1 above your difficulty lvl.

      Need help determining my way of lvl?
      If you can full combo "very easy" songs = easy/standard
      If you can full combo "easy" songs = give Standard/Tricky a shot
      If you can full combo "standard" songs = try Tricky/Difficult
      If you can full combo "tricky" songs = Difficult/Very Difficult(from Dance 1)
      If you can full combo "difficult" songs = Very Difficult(dance 2)
      If you can full combo "Very Difficult" songs = go for Challenging
      If you can Full combo "Challenging" songs = Very Challenging/For Masters Only
      If you can Full combo "Very Challenging" songs = then I don't know what you should do xD

      Alternatively, You could set goals for yourself, Me, I'm trying to get 100 tier points(it will be a while xD)
      But yeah, practice practice practice. I can not stress this enough. A good friend of mine has played for 2 years and still can't beat me(sad xD)

          I assume somewhere, in some forum I never go to, you can actually post without finding some way to brag about some score you got

            Ye I tried cuttig the screen in half... it helps, but... I prefer to do it my way:

            RAISE THE SPEED TO 1.5x!!!

            OMFG no joke, once I did that, I was FCing ALL SORTS of songs!!! The first time I did it I was just looking for a challenge. But it because EASIER!!! Hell, I can't even play on 1.0x anymore because I'm so used to 1.5x. lol

            But I don't think this trick will be nice on new players. I was doing Difficult songs with ease, and after I tried putting the speed on 1.5x, I'm doing Very Challenging (except the Jump Stream ones lol).

            Anyways, if you haven't tried this, have a go at it.

            BTW I don't think this trick works with cutting the screen in half. xD

              Not being an arse or anything but putting the speed up to 1.5x isn't a trick... its a mod. But yer, a lot of people play using 1.5x and a lot of the old school players use 1x screencut, i occasionally use 1.5x screencut.

                    I like the arrows coming down, so screen cut doesn't work. But my positioning of fingers is a good one ^.^

                      Speeds helped for me. Don't do too much speed for levels you haven't done yet; you may not be expecting a real easy level. 1.50-1.75 is a good speed to practice on and the faster you play at it, the better you'll be at hand-eye coordination anndddddd reflexes

                        I might've said this already, but if you REALLY want to get good at a specific song, memorize it and play stealth. That's what I did for 2 songs.

                          You can screen cut as a reverse player. I'm happen to be a reverse player myself (even though I don't screen cut). All you have to do is scroll the window down until you think the top of the game as been cut off enough. It's actually easier to do than if you aren't a revser player, because you don't have to minimize the window --> resize the bottom --> maximize again.
