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.

Zenostein posted: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… 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.

pandaK posted: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. 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.

vibratingsheep posted:I made 62,000th place in Starlight Stage.I got my Kaede. Congrats. But yeah, that's why I slacked off so hard on this event after putting so much effort into the first one. I only got the 10,000 point SR Ranko in the end, and the feeble rewards for being in the 100,000-300,000 zone. Speaking of the first event, Atashi Ponkotsu Android is back, in the (cute) rotating slot. They've also reset all the rewards on it so you can get those star jewels all over again if you already got them during the event.

Zenostein posted:One thing that isn't immediately obvious is that you can change the notemap speed between songs, which is pretty nice. Also I guess you can restore your health before the final song, and there' some sort of meter that does something on the left. gently caress knows what that does, but I'm assuming more is better. The meter is the whole point, if you don't get it into the yellow by the third song you don't get the encore song, and then you don't score any points. Though, it's pretty generous, I think I was there by the second song. Also if you play Master you unlock Master+ if you get it into the red. I think you get a score boost based on your Vocal score, but, the autogenerator just picked me out an all-cool team so you'll probably have to do that yourself.

Ah, fair enough, I guess it'd be cruel to give you nothing at all after using up hours worth of stamina. Interesting about the vocal number though, I didn't really look at the actual numbers. I'll just leave it on auto in that case.

taser rates posted:I've gotten pretty lucky with that so far thankfully. The only songs I can't really do on Master are the two Ranko songs and Anzu no Uta, and I've managed to not get any of those yet on my event runs. Timing's still going to be tight reaching 10k event points before the end though. How many points are you getting per play, out of interest? I think at least one of the multple bugs they mention in their latest post which I don't have the energy to translate properly affects scoring, which may be why I get exactly 379 points every Pro game regardless of which team the autogenerator picks for me or whether I level two of my SR idols up ~20 levels. Though, it hasn't stopped the #1 guy getting over 100,000 points so there must be more to it than that.

I just managed to get into the 100,000 zone in Starlight Stage somehow, so I'm almost certainly going to be squeezed out when it finishes in 2 hours. I got my 15,000 point second Yuko, anyway.

Yeah, it's really weird to me to see people full-comboing Master songs with their thumbs, it looks kind of wrong even as they're doing it. Though, I still can't do it with my fingers anyway because I put my phone down and I don't have a good way to keep it still if there's a lot of slides.

Maybe I'll get someone to get me one for Christmas as soon as I come up with an excuse that isn't 'so I can more effectively touch the screen to the music these Japanese idols are dancing to'. Actually I still haven't touched the speed settings or switched to 2D mode, which is another thing virtually everyone does in their demo videos.

You get a room item (mirror) for reading the caravan tutorial in SS, so do that even if you already know how it works. Assuming you love room items, anyway. Let's see if I can get someone above 6* for this time around.

Looks like I'm holding off on the gachas for another couple of weeks, then. Not that excited about the event either, but I said that last time and I still managed to get into the top 100k with a lot less effort than the first event. I guess there's been some drop-off since the launch. Also I don't have any Kiraris at all, so I'm definitely going to do at least that.

The main reaction to the original advert (see the first 15 seconds of the below video) for the Girlfriend (Beta) mobile gacha game was 'ha ha, Chloe Lemaire says her name in a funny way' leading to so many meme videos it was worth making a 'top 50 Chloe Lemaire videos' ranking video (nws in parts) I think most people got it out of their system then, though there was a smaller reaction to her saying 'Chloe Lemaire desu yo' in the anime.

Yeah, that's a pretty clear title. In the unlikely event 'the wrong type of groove' was some kind of deal-breaker for you in SS Vocal Groove events, they've now added a button to pay 30,000 moneys to switch to a different groove (and then 50,000 more if you didn't like that one either). I guess you can use it if you really didn't like the song selection, too.

graybook posted:Tried out MedFes and it feels faster-paced than Live Groove Vocal Burst since it doesn't pause in between each song. I think I'm okay with this for now because LGVB just felt like it dragged on. You have to play all the songs in a row? I'm not sure that's a plus if the full sequence is ~10 minutes like LGVB. Though, it's pretty safe to say nobody really likes LGVB because I don't have the free time to play it during the day* but I can still stay in the top 100,000 just by playing 2-3 times in the evening. * I know you can stop between songs but I don't really care enough about the event to find out how long you can do that for or even if it's unlimited

Girl Friend (♪) maintenance continues to continue, they're definitely going to have to move the apology window further forward than the 11th. They didn't tweet for over 24 hours until just now, I was starting to worry they'd worked themselves to death but they probably just got tired of posting "we're still working on it!" every 8 hours. Meanwhile the ratings are looking more like what I was expecting now.
