Frederica will voraciously grab two dumplings(?) from the new food display for Hinamatsuri and quickly snarf theme down.

Nice, Frederica is cool, I'm definitely keeping her in. I knew about the quotes mostly because the Ponkotsu Android Abe Nana has a bunch of android quotes, most people's quotes are (as far as I've noticed) relatively generic so it's harder to tell.

e: apparently GF Note took out the thing that updates your stamina from the server if you switch out of the application and back in again. Unfortunately instead of updating at the client end like normal people it just doesn't update until you go to a different screen

SIF-wise, probably by only playing easy to clear the story, and sticking to B-side EX difficulty plays asap, I think.

I can't stand the number sitting there, mocking me, so I use strange numbers of leftover stamina during token events to clear out my easy/normal plays. I'd also do one of them at the end of the day if I hadn't gotten the day's FC for the loveca, but that's no longer necessary.

I used to have a 17 on my PLAY button in GF Note taunting me for the past month because I can barely bring myself to play between events.

Now it's a 46 because they made all difficulties available, and each of those difficulties counts. (And I played a couple of things for the first time.)

What's also goofy is the count of plays per difficulty for me. This count also tracks plays during events.

Look at this bull-honky in the bottom right.

i really dislike how GF note feels to play. It's really weird compared to the others. Maybe it's the hit sound..? Or maybe i need to adjust the timing? I don't know. but regardless of the timing, it seems to be a very wide window for hitting a note without breaking combo.

Yeah, I've been working to get the PLAY number down, but I haven't really played an event with any level of seriousness since the first so I've been getting there. I also can't bear having NEWs on Starlight Stage and it's weird whenever I look at someone's profile and they have debut/normal counts lower than pro/master because that definitely means they just have the NEW indicator on constantly.

Yeah, I've never felt the timing was right and I've just had to try to accept it. I tried to fix it by changing the timing but it doesn't change when the notes come out, it just changes the acceptable tap zone so if you push the timing too far in one direction you have to tap when it's actually nowhere near the target.

This sounds insane just as I'm typing it and I'm going to have to go double-check now.

e: yeah, if you set it to -10 or +10 and tap when the heart is directly over the target you get a Nice, you actually have to tap late/early. For me the optimal 'over the target' setting is -1 but when I have it like that (and I do) if I tap exactly on the beat I'm likely to get a Nice, because it's "too early"

with starlight stage you don't even need to pass the song to get rid of the new thing. like if it's a master song and you try it and fail, then the new indicator goes away. If you fail a song in SIF, the indicator doesn't go away.

edit: so in SS, you can like turn off the thing on the top left, or turn it on, I don't know. Is it on by default? The timer is counting down, but if I hit the button and make it say "off" the timer is still counting down. What does this even do?

Also



gently caress.

I did the part that I usually broke combo at, and then during the triple taps on each button I thought I had hit the last one so I deliberately stopped. Then hit the last beats of the song just fine.

I don't know why I thought I had hit them all. Just lost track or something

I think I only notice some oddness in timing on some songs in GF Note; off the top of my head, Yume no Hanashi feels like I'm always getting great-equivalent hits constantly at the start.

I decided to try out Master Groove on a whim, since theoretically my cool team could handle it even though I'm still not great at Master songs. Managed to pass it with maximum audience approval, so Master+ was available. Decided to try that outta recklessness. Yeah, it didn't end well. So many sliders...

man i think i gotta just start getting rid of some idols in JP SIF before max leveling. I'm now storing idols in my gift box, since I only have 1 slot open in my list, which i have to empty before playing each song. That 1 slot will probably disappear soon to some idol i don't have yet.


also just beat moment ring on hard. Wooooow. Played with my all normal team. Played the last like 30 seconds with only 1 hp left. That was really stressful.

I no longer have any new song indicators in JP SIF though.

We don't get anything for FC'ing in an event though. Other than a higher score and pride. The Master+ version will still be haunting you too as well.

Unlike the LAST en tournmenet, I spent no loveca, so I'm happy, but I'm only 60 so far. I've gotten a lot better since then, I can actually play EX songs for the most part (and I can actually A rank Solider Game Hard. so I'm happy there)

Yeah, it's mostly a pride thing for me.
I don't even touch Master+ though since I know that's too far beyond my abilities, and it gives the same amount of event points as Master (unless they changed that now?).

Yeah, you'll probably get back the N tiers later anyways just by playing and pulling with friend points.

Until a while ago, the range of N idols you could get from playing songs was limited so it was easy to remember and get rid of them. The field is far wider now though.

just the way the first part sounds, when you are switching between screens and suddenly "Nande takusan DVD" or w/e comes in in a really jarring way

idk if it's unique, i just think it probably is cuz she says ninja and she is dressed as a ninja on the UR.

The way "V" is pronounced by Japanese speakers comes off as odd to me a lot of the time (like in the derem@s song for Sanae Katagiri, "love" gets spelled like "L-O-vui-E"), but then again with my upbringing in English, I have a really hard time with other sounds myself.

It wasn't until I took Japanese that I realized L/R are a lot closer to pronounce than I realized. It's like pronouncing both at the same time in Japanese.

well i've now gotten a full combo on all of the Hit songs on each difficulty in EN SIF that I currently have unlocked. The last one I have a B combo on for it's hard difficulty.

there's so many more songs in JP SIF.

e: man GF note.. I really don't get why you feel song wrong. I got 182 perfects, and 126 "greats" on a song.. Like I felt like I was hitting everything fine.

also figured out that you can't just swipe across the ball to spin it, your initial touch has to be on the ball or it won't register...
