on the leaderboard however i have fallen to 93,423rd. Soon gonna drop out of Anastasia range. Oh well, i'd prefer to keep saving my gems for a 10 pull, haven't done one of those in this game yet.

I have no idea if any of my idols are good. I just like collecting them. I keep sitting around the 50000 ranking, but I assume I'll drop as the event draws closer to the end. Also I keep attempting rehearsals of the master event song, and I still can't get those two big slides at the beginning.

my suggestion is to maybe take it a little slower than you might think you need to take it because the zigzag might prompt you to try to whip out your finger really fast but it really works better if you track it properly and just remember to overshoot the ends a bit.

same, i kinda feel for me that this may be a side effect of the 5 finger style requiring you to sort of divvy up your attention to each finger so the instant your concentration wavers you just act retarded and let go

which kinda sucks since the largest chunks of time i usually have to play nowadays is in the morning when i'm still sleep drunk or late at night after school or work when i'm balls tired.

My achilles heel is my lack of skill.

Also sometimes the color scheme makes it hard to tell when some notes are the ones where you have them down.

Pink and orange are ally bad about this, blue is okay and I have no problem with it.

Blue is the best.

I think of them as raindrops falling across the screen and my tapping powers get 50% stronger.

I leave the 3d on, so I get distracted by the dancing choreography occasionally. Otherwise, it's usually mistiming a tap that gets me, or letting go of a hold because I thought it was a tap. The master is fun to play though, I just wish the sliding felt a bit better when it decides to cross over a lot like that.

I didn't want to complain about weird touch registry, but I just flubbed three FCs in a row because a hold absolutely refused to register for me no matter how solidly I hit it and gently caress this game goddamnit.

A third of my attempts at the event song so far, I've managed to get a nice before the gimmick slides even start. Several of those, I went on to an otherwise FC run. What the gently caress? My misses aren't even on the hard parts.

I haven't managed a FC of it yet, by the way.

Wow, there's actually a lot more idolm@ster on wikipedia than there used to be. At one point it was basically all in one single 'the idolm@ster' page. At least some people have gone ahead and made separate pages for a lot of the games now, though the Must Songs one probably doesn't need to exist.

Yeah, nices are my sworn enemy. One day I'm going to build a full team of nice->perfect or nice doesn't break combo.

I'm definitely going to get Koume, not so sure about my chances of staying in the top 100,000 though.

I'm guessing Anya's popular enough that most people won't wander off after 10k or so like they usually do?

Either I'm crazy or once you crack 10–12k, you start making up places fairly easily.

Yeah, I definitely wouldn't hold my breath for that. I think between that and the relatively easy Master event song this is going to be a tough one pointwise. Stats are still on track for a ~15,000 point 100k rank.

You can't miss 'Yukiho gets over her fear of crowds, a little', though I probably remember that because everyone who makes Yukiho MADs uses a clip from there because she hardly does anything after that.

Hmm, I can't remember what happened with Ami/Mami at all though, sounds like I need to rewatch.

i can't even beat the event song on master. I can only beat one song on master, and i only get a B rating.

I can full combo the event song on pro though, that's pretty easy, I think i've gotten it FC the last 7 or so times I played it

I mean it's not easy easy but it's not significantly worse than top-end standard Pro songs so if you were experienced enough for those you'd probably be fine, or at least you'd clear it.

I think my SS weakness is just like single-double-single-double tap chains because I inevitably lose my rhythm somehow during my tapping. :/
