ITG is harder than DDR in my opinion. But it has better songs, too. Much more of a challenge.. and I suck at it xD

That's not your opinion. It's a fact.

Yep, quads, triples... It's surely a fact. Whole lot better songs than DDR. ^_^

Not at all, it depends on your taste in music. That's like saying that it's a known fact that apples are better than oranges because you like apples better personally. (LOL)

Well then you may have bad taste then. xD

Tried some 9's for the first time today(monolith, hybrid, tension) I got 40 something% for monolith and 65% for the other two.
I noticed that I do better without shoes on. But I'm using CF, so I'm gonna hurt myself later when I play harder songs, which is too bad.
Btw, are your wrists supposed to hurt when you bar rape? I'm trying not to rely on the bar so much, but it's hard.

Not really, unless you were holding on to the bar on the 3 13s... (Vertex^2, Summer ~Speedy Mix~, Pandemonium) Then yeah. O_O

[akstylish]

Even though I played much less intense ones, I was almost doing dips with the bar, so I guess that explains why.

Anyway, I tried some expert 9's this time.
High: 53.53%
July Euromix: 73.57%
Ride the Bass: 80.14%(this should be an 8 >.>)
D-Code: 78.09%
Renaissance: 67.06%
Dawn: 70.04%

I decided to take one step further and tried a few 10's:
Queen of Light: 64.00%
Cryosleep: 56.03%
Agent Blatant: 37.40%

Horrible scores, I know, but it was my first try and it's been exactly a month since I played with a pad.

It's more of an opinion. For me, I like DDR songs more. Maybe because I'm into j-pop and dance music and such, but I heard that others like ITG music. It's just mere opinion.

[Tired_Old_Man]

I started playing 6 months ago, I make it to the arcade every 2 weeks or so. Delerium and Vertex are the only 12s I can do so far but I have been smoking cigarettes for a while now, I'm trying to quit for games sake.

akstylish, D-Code is actually considered a 10. I believe it was re-rated in ITG PC, but no one cared at all about it and still continued to think of it as a 10. Good job on Cryosleep though, that's a pretty difficult 10.

Also, why the hell isn't there an ITG accomplishment thread on FFR?

Thank you. I rechecked and D-Code expert is rated 9 in r21. I don't think it qualifies for a 10 anyway.

D-Code is rated a 10 on any revision of ITG AC.

Also, the reason why it was rated a 10 was because of the 24ths making it difficult to FA/do well on. Passing-wise it would easily be a 9.

[travman301]

Woot! I got a 98.39 on I Can Walk on Water, I Can Fly today!!!!

I want to 99 it so bad, but I don't think I have the FA for that.

It was a FEC, 99 excellents.

By the way, I went to take the SS and my card disconnected. ;_;

I have a lower 98 on my card though.

[akstylish]

I played Cryosleep again and got 70.0x% I reckon I was lucky though. I was mashing w/ my feet at 16th streams.

[DarkCore]

Wait, you have 53% on High and 70% on Cryosleep? Good job on the improve, but you should definitely go back and replay some 9's. You should be able to 90% Birdie, IMO.

...speaking of Birdie, I got this last week.

[akstylish]

I'll try High again tomorrow.
Dang, how do so many ppl quad expert so easily? I've been playing with keyboard for a year but never got 100% on any. ;( Just several ***'s on hard & expert.

[DarkCore]

I never said I was able to quad on Expert easily, haha. I've been playing dancing games for nearly 2 years now and that is my only quadstar on Expert...and yeah, let me tell you it wasn't easy at all to get.

But yeah, don't worry you'll get there eventually. I honestly started playing easy mode for a while and got some tristars and quads after a while. I was then able to FA 4th notes really well, as well as some 8ths. Then I moved up to easier songs on hard mode and got tristars...then I guess I just went from there. So yeah, basically I strongly suggest that you play easy for a while, as stupid as it sounds. It helped me majorly, who knows it could really help you too.
