#I don't know what's a wahoo queue

[thescottishalpaca]

Ok so...this is the first thing I did with the new tablet.

I didn't accept the new tablet. I took it locked in the closet for a week.

I still don't accept it, like a cat. I'll keep using the old one, I'm afraid. I'll be blind, but...

[mutelunacy]

It starts with

One fest, I don't know why

Doesn't even matter if you stan Frye

Keep that in mind, I designated my time

To Barnacle n Dime and

All I know

Time was valuable thing

Watched it fly by as Wahoo timer swings

Watch it count down to the end of the fest

I truly thought I was the best

It's so unreal

Didn't look out below

Watch halftime points go out the window

Tried to pull it back, I didn't even know

I wasted it all just to watch it go

I kept queueing back up

Even to Ink me Up, it all fell apart

What it meant to me will eventually

Be a Maritime Memory

I tried so hard and got so far

But at grand fest, it didn't even matter

I super jumped to super chump

But in the end, it doesn't even matter

One fest, I don't know why

Another team placement doomed by Frye

Keep that in mind, I designated my time

To future ruler +9, I tried so hard

In spite of the wipeouts mockin' me

For Deep Cut there was nothing stoppin' me

Remembering zero times past fought with me

I'm surprised that they got so far

Things aren't the way they were before

The next themes decided for Splatoon 4

Nintendo sending us to back then

But it all comes back to me in the end

No matter my reefslides

Even though I tried, team future all fell apart

What it meant to me will eventually

Be a Maritime Memory

I tried so hard and got so far

But at grand fest, it didn't even matter

I super jumped to super chump

But at grand fest, it didn't even matter

I've put my trust in you, inked into the splatlands bowl

For my team, there's only one thing you should know

I've put my trust in you, secured every ultra signal

For my team, there's only one thing you should know

I tried so hard and got so far

But at grand fest, it didn't even matter

I sweated it all, won none at all

But in the end, it doesn't even matter

November 16th, 2024 - vivid/stasis, ONGEKI, maimai, DJMAX Technika, CHUNITHM, EZ2AC, DDR A3

this past week has seriously been the most stressful and depressing of my life. i've felt horrible day and night, unable to get up and unable to function as i once did, and it's been really damn hard to hide my emotions from people, i really don't know what to do... but it's the weekend now, it's supposed to be time to relax, and so i have to keep my cool and distract myself in spite of the obstacles via my little games that i've always played, past and present .

i'm getting into the endgame of tamasatchi now, and so i have to really grind out tickets due to how long the shop cooldown lasts -- where the only alternative method is to clear boundary shatter songs with gauges. the shortest of them is grode (DJ HOE SCARER REMIX) (or grodescarer for short), so i grinded it out as much as possible and ended up getting a MAX-10 AC on it!! solid potential 13+ or so should it have been a regular chart, though it's kinda hard to judge given the length w

but alas! these two scores were not but a highlight of my warmup for the day, as i was instead preparing most for the real deal that day... GAMECENTER!!! their first meeting in weeks, i was super hype this time around to go as early as i could and make the most of the game selection there... but i ended up going a little late as i was still recovering emotionally by the time i woke up fairly late. it really is a struggle that i hope would've passed by now but . gah . i don't know what to do anymore, just look at these scores and hope i'm not as doomy and gloomy next time. sorry 'bout that.

maimai actually was pretty good despite my condition . despite having gone 3 weeks without playing it, i could feel my improvement in accuracy and reading from last session carry over to this one beautifully . i played a ton of fun and hard charts across experts and masters, and with honestly great scores at that! i think i'm ready to pick right up from where i'm leaving off once maimai DX officially releases in the US, though i imagine that's not for another long while... in the meantime, i'll keep practicing and improving as much as i possibly can! highlights from this session specifically include a clear on raputa [Expert 13+], S-rank on Vampire [Master 11+], an AA on Baka Mitai [Master 13] (somehow), and an SSS FC on Rush-More [Expert 10+]!!!

while maimai was insanely cool and fun to play, i had my eyes on something more unique... something rarer and impossible to find out in the while nowadays. that's right baybeee, DJMAX TECHNIKA 3 IN THE FLESH!!!! MY FIRST TIME EVER LAYING EYES UPON A CAB, LET ALONE PLAYING ON ONE!!!! it's surreal... such an important and incredible game for its time, i'm so glad to be graced by its presence, and even gladder to have played through two sets on it! i'd like to say though... this game is HARD . i seriously don't know how to keep up with the rhythms and the timing windows, a touch-screen keysounded rhythm game is definitely a frightful combination of words in text, and even More frightening to actually play.

short chuni set!!! a few upscores here and there... naw but seriously, these are INSANE, like SS+ on Fracture Ray and an SS on ouroboros [Master 14+]??? wahoo, +0.02 !!!

the maimai scores are spread out super far apart since most of it was just waiting in the card queue for my turn every hour or so, so i'll just bunch them up here to make the rest of the scores easier to describe... during the sets, i managed to get a super cool AA on Scarlet Police [Master 13], an S rank on Got more raves? [Expert 12+], an insane near-SSS upscore (though just barely missing an FC) on The Intense Voice of Hatsune Miku [Expert 12], a sightread FC on Haikei Doppelganger [Expert 12+], and raising my raputa [Expert 13+] up to AAA just before leaving...!

phew, okay, that's all the maimai out of the way... now it's time to showcase some of the other super cool games on display here, starting with.... EZ2AC: NIGHT TRAVELER!!! haven't played this version before, but it's definitely my favorite one of the series that i've seen... such a great aesthetic, and an incredible song selection to go along with it as well!!! definitely the peak of the latter half of the series' life... and just as hard as i remembered it, too! a bit too hard, mayhaps... but i already have EZ2ON for playing 5K only, i have to make the most of the 5K standard offered exclusively by the cab!

a very brief and spontaneous score in terms of DDR though... would've loved to get more, but i'm really not used to the pads of the X-era cab specifically... still a 980k on Glitter Flatter Scatter ain't bad at all! could def AAA this on a white cab given the chance...

and now, to conclude the scoredump... here's the last of the chuni scores i secured near the end of the session (minus one that's not really important because of the 30-image limit)!!! a near-SS on HERA [Master 14+], an SS on Oshama Scramble! (Cranky Remix) [WORLD'S END ?] of all things, a massive upscore to SS+ on DX Chouseinou Fullmetal Shoujo [Master 14] (and +0.01 PTT)... and to conclude, several unsuccessful SS+ attempts on Disruptor Array [Master 15]!!! i can feel it... it's so close, yet so far... may not be able to get it anytime soon, but i'd love to try again some other time!

BONUS: just as promised (and also just as requested by no one, really), here's a mostly-cut video of my absolutely incredible, absolutely beautiful 997k on Disruptor Array [Master 15]!!! ...you may now clap, thank you very much . after all, i sabotaged showing the EZ2AC video here just to show off my more beautiful (and blurrier + crustier) CHUNITHM AWESOME PLAY!!!
