Sometimes you just plain get thrown off because you're too used to the faster difficulties. :/

If if you full combo a song in the event does it count towards the full combo thing on the regular list

cuz i finally full combo'd this song i've been trying to full combo for basically the entire last event, but i did it during a groove.

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

A Pro-level event song:

the rest of it's pretty normal Pro difficulty, but lol


How can you possibly play with those cutins? Even 10s of that looked really distracting.

Also I feel like the master version was equally weird like that for a little.

Skwee posted:

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.

I didn't bother keeping track of versions — but I do have a separate cell for the idolized convos, that i usually add 1 to once it unlocks/I see it. So I at least have that, which is easier than trying to remember where anything is in the album.

Well-done tiny hats are good. Something like the hastily-plopped tiny crown on Nico for the Autumn event SR is an example of a tiny hat that looks gaudy because of the lack of care.

Hmm, I guess I mentally filter them separately from the notes, they're pretty distinct from them at least. I'm not sure it's worse than 3D mode.

I already miss having a rehearsal button for Master like in the token events. I'd like to try it to see if I can do it, but it'd cost me 50 stamina and maybe I wouldn't even get to the actual event song anyway.

hmm, wildly tapping in the general direction of the beats seems to be a valid tactic in GFN. Somehow finished a song with nearly full stamina and somehow hit a LOT of beats that I should not have.

Yeah, I'd figure out that at least on 2D with a static background, you can filter a decent amount out.

I'll get to a medley tonight, but I've gotta do some really hard grinding for GF Note since I've been busy all day otherwise.

I'm limited in my experience but it doesn't seem like there's a girl with an equivalent personality - though I feel like with the far larger cast, you can't have one girl getting popular in terms of getting jobbed constantly.

It's really only on a technicality - they do exist as cards (varying numbers depending on who they are) the larger part of which I suspect were added at launch to ease people into the transition. There were a few more cards later (I got bikini Haruka and bikini Chihaya for free as some kind of promotion because I was playing at the right time 3 years ago), but since then they effectively don't exist - there's no new cards, they're never present in events or comics, basically the only place you see them any more is in the today's idol birthdays box.

Also Million Live launched at some point so any of that kind of work will have shifted over to there.

CG and 765Pro are still canonically in the same universe, according to the anime. I don't think we've seen any canonical evidence that Million Live is, though, so that could still be an alternate reality.

Uhh, it has 765 Pro in it, the best idols, for real instead of just being a concession. Also 37 other hangers-on, but they don't really matter.

Oh dear. Are they even called 'doctor' fishes in Korean or did that have to go through English first?

That being said, Maki uses 풀 (pul) when saying Doctor Fish Pool but when the title and Rin are talking about it it's called a 수영장 (suyeongjang) which means pool.

I see that in Japanese sometimes and it's like 'you have a perfectly good word for this already', it's a little weird. France was right, people need to take an official anti-English-words stance.

Well, in the case of the Doctor Fish Pool, I think it's preferably to go all English words than do Doctor Fish [Korean Word for Swimming Pool].

But yeah I see people using needless English in my job a lot as a translator and it's weird at times. Sometimes the final product doesn't even use the English word because Koreans tend to use the English words improperly.

Holy poo poo guys, there's gonna be a real-life SIF event in the states.

As part of the event, we plan to have demo game booths and limited-edition goods for sale.

From the ingame announcement. So like I said, /hopefully/ at Anime Boston, but not 100% confirmed yet. KLab America will have a booth there, so that seems likely, but still, I don't want to state that outright unless KLab fully confirms it through one of their official outlets.

No but Rin likes sports and everyone knows anime characters who like sports are dumb.
