I only play SIF. I made the mistake of asking some online friends what the game with the anime girl cards was and now I'm trapped.

I'm at the point where EX songs are too hard, but most Hard songs are getting a bit easy. Nawatobi EX I'm close on but the middle part kills me every time.

Oh poopy, cracked my phone screen. No more SIF/SS until I get it fixed.

I think I can be okay with not getting the Rin though. Just wanna SS Music START before it leaves.

New SS event, basically the same as the first except it's a Cool song. Win Ranko(s) for getting enough event points, win Kaede(s) for high ranking.

Nice, those will go nicely with my already full SR cool team while my cute and passion teams continue to languish with a single SR each

Hopefully this time around I can get into top 40k for song ranking now that I have a 4 SR 1 R team for Cool.

Eli's birthday right now in JP, in five or six hours (whenever the day change happens) in EN. Combined with the countdown to martini Hanayo and coincidence of the normal login bonus, it's a good day for loveca.

I feel like I'm too far behind on the Rin event to get a card :smith: And after burning a bunch of loveca on said event they have a scouting event start up. Damnit game.

Probably same. Might see about burning some stamina drinks towards the end because I think I might want a Kaede for the sake of having one.

I should also start pushing some of my N cards to 10k fans so that I can safely practice lesson them away.

I'm probably not even going to get the Run card from the current EN event. What rank do you need to be to pull that off usually, or is just straight dependent on the number of event points? Only want one, don't have enough time in my life to get two.

It's event point dependent only. Token events get a copy at 11k, score match at 25k.

Me either and I don't feel like pushing it. For some reason, all of my SRs lately have been either Rin or Hanayo. I just counted and over half of my SRs are Rin or Hanayo.

Also, I finally pulled my first UR... while checking out the one scouting ticket supporting members thing. I got Honoka's mom... who I apparently need yet another UR to actually use. Thanks SIF.

Also now there's a v. 1.3.0 (on iOS at least, it's a trip to the app store). Now, there are three note skins to choose from, too! Plus, the live settings screen pops up by default now, so you won't forget to change the speed to something sensible (and you can turn that off, too).

As an aside, the second tap sound set is hilarious on a song with lots of swipes. It's like you're playing in a spaceship!

Incidentally, is there anywhere where they've spat out some numbers for how many people are playing? I'm kinda curious just how garbage [i[240,000th[/i] place is, event-wise. I see that there are entries in the 500,000–1,000,000 section, but none in the 1,000,000+, so it's less than a million, but still…

… but hey, 165,000th place score-wise isn't so terrible by comparison! :v:

Pretty safe to say if your (and my) total score is in the same range as the daily increase at 20,000th place (per https://twitter.com/deresute_border) you're not doing that great in event terms. There's going to be a huge tail of low-scoring people at the bottom end who aren't really trying to play the event at all, they're just playing casually and picking up points naturally.

There's a sizable population of players who choose to stockpile all their points until the last few days when 4x point gain opens up so that they can just get all their plays done in one lump.

That also means they have to play much less. I'm thinking next time I'll do exactly this.

Yeah, I mostly meant the really low ranked people who haven't cleared more than 20 songs since the event started, but that's true too. It'd be interesting to figure out how much the top 20,000 shifts at that point, it's too bad the data isn't easier to get at.

Getting pretty sick of this game constantly giving me clone SRs instead of new ones so my team hardly grows:

I mean, at least I did get one new idol this time around, and it is pretty whiny of me to complain about a three SR pull...

I just want an SSR of my own...

Ah, now that you've said that, those charts make sense to me. Horrible, horrible sense.

Still, that's kinda amazing compared to like, tokyo 7th sisters, where even the vaguest of efforts in an event still nets a rank of like 13k. Even if you say, accidentally deleted your game and ended up restarting from scratch, so you couldn't really do much even if you cared to.

I really appreciate the new update for SS and the fact that we have a speed option before playing. Some of the Master charts were so scrunched together it was hard to read proper. I wish Love Live would get something like this, even if it's just the JP version for now, because it'd make songs like Kokuhaku Biyori EX a tad easier.

The speed options were always there, this update just pulls up the menu for them automatically every time now.
