Jesus Christ @ the posting, guys, but lol at the graph. And here I was being conscious about constantly replying to others.

I can let GF Note rest for a few hours since overflow handles that very nicely. Time to get back to medley-ing, but I don't think I'm going to tier because I don't really have much attachment to those idols.
Still, it'll be good for bonding idols I don't really care about so I can get rid of a bunch of N.

I tried a pull for Kaede last night and only got 2 SRs, and only one new one (the new Chiaki). I guess I did use up my luck on GF Note the other night.

Also workin on fillin this poo poo out now that i finished making it:



there are definitely missing idols, but I am not gonna figure out what is missing and where it would go alphabetically in japanese. I'll just add girls if they are missing when I get them.

Also not gonna figure out what versions of everything I have to add some sort of idolization column. I'll just figure out if stuff is idolized in the in-game album.

- Only a few good songs (subjective)

I'm not entirely sure how I feel about the SS song selection overall. There's some I legitimately like but listening to something mediocre repeatedly is likely to make me think a little better of it. I didn't think much of M@GIC in the anime but after playing it like 20 times I think it's at least ok.

This is the kind of thinking that makes me think some anime OP/EDs are good and then I hear one of them again three years later and think hmm, why did I like this, it's actually bad.

ZepiaEltnamOberon posted:

Difficult to disagree with this, though, like I get that they're trying to cover all the bases but the average player is going to perceive the larger part of them as redundant.

finished fillin out my spreadsheet with all the stuff i've accomplished so far.



Sort of wish i had a good way to get idolizations on there, but i'm not smart enough with spreadsheets to figure something out. Like an example is Rina Fujimoto, i have a normal and an SR, the normal i haven't idolized, but the SR I have.

I tried out a Normal song on SS to look at my new SSR in 3D and also to give Natalia a voice and GOD drat I spent too much time watching the 3D and not enough time paying attention to the notes and I didn't even get 50 combos on the easiest level.

They also just doubled the SSR gacha chance too (3% SSR 9% SR 88% R) for the next few days, for that well-known milestone of 100 days. Nurse Fumio is cute though, so I'll probably give it a shot later.

3 10 pulls and no Kaede or any other SSRs. I could pull twice more, but I'm not crazy enough about Kaede to do it. At least my Passion and Cool teams are pretty solid now.

Jesus CHRIST @ GF Note. I stop playing for a few hours and I'm already down to rank 4000. Gotta roughly double my point total just to make it back into the top 2k.
Well, we did get 500 Luck Stones from a retweet campaign that just happened, so looks like I can easily spend 500 stones on stamina refills in the next couple days.

Oh poo poo. I remembered why i chose my healing team for this event on the first 4 runs after i chose a team that i wanted to get idolized/fans for.

Ran into a song I am terrible at. Not terrible enough to fail, but terrible enough to get low on stamina, and then the next song had a bit of a difficult part, so I failed.

3rd song i don't have unlocked, but I wanted to play, so i spent gems to continue the 2nd song. We'll see how this goes I guess.

e: like last half of 3rd song I had a sliver of stamina left, and managed to clutch through the fasted part of the song. I have 1/127 stamina for the final song..

I've nearly full combo'd the last song, so hopefully that goes well. Cuz missing 1 note = death

e: whelp.

one of the slides at the start didn't work. GG

Goodbye 50 gems to play a song i've never played before. Weren't worth it.

edit:

Don't play with low battery. Low battery warning made me fail..

That song is really fun though, I got it again. But the low battery thing.. Seriously irritating, i used stamina drinks to play that run too. Not gonna spend more gems to continue though. Guess I shouldn't try to get bond with girls in the event.

Yeah, I tried to do that one time. In (obvious) retrospect I should have healed up before the song but I was feeling confident..

It's pretty uncommon actually. I don't think I've seen it happen in Million Live at all and even in the thousands of Cinderella Girls cards people keep their hairstyle most of the time.

If you remove Haruka from her ribbons then you're left with nothing.

For the main cast it's pretty much only when they get new character designs (first vision to second and now to third).
