It might be easier, OB folks, if you strap your index finger to your middle finger so that it can't possibly interfere- your middle finger would still be the one pressing down the frets. OR, those of you who are good at keyboard style could try that, as you have the advantage of a thumb in that situation. _________________

lol NIN00b sucks at teh twists.
Whilst I never considered actually trying it keyboard style, I don't use my thumb for it in any case, so it'd probably be more detrimental to me if anything. My index already knows not to touch teh fret buttons, so that's already spiffy. _________________

I actually thought this twist was going to be impossible but had decent score after only a couple runs.
There was no way I could not reach for the G with my index finger if I lost my place and this was a problem. But the key was I had to splint up my index finger so I couldn't bend it to touch the key at all. Felt really awkward at first but I was amazed at how my other fingers just moved on their own. Worked for CPU also.
While I can't foresee an FC, I can at least see getting a score I'm comfortable with submitting. _________________

This twist is turning out a lot like the mirror mode twist. I bitched about it for the first day, and now I'm getting the hang of it. I can definitely FC this now. And no, I don't use keyboard style or splint my index finger in any way. _________________

Two things:
Firstly, I'm with JR. The twist has clicked for me too. FC is definitely possible here. Good for me too, because I'm pretty much done with the other songs
Secondly:

I had a freakin' field day on the easier songs today. I re-FC'd *takes a deep breath*:
CMH, MiaB, Woman, Strutter, COWS, Girlfriend, SCOM, CP, WWIMRLN, TLB, TB, MW, TOAHIAPH, in that order. Then I failed to get Gemini after many attempts, so that's coming too.
Now I have a comfortable 17k lead on you. And I laughed at "*throws a brick at JR*". That was funny. _________________

You are only allowed 234 fingers tho, so in addition to the obvious no pointer finger that also means no thumb, and no second hand tapping. |
That's...
....a very good point. I'll go now. >_>

RL (1st woo!), slight increase on FoP, Parasite, Strutter, Stop (lol league), X-Stream, Raw Dog (needs rereduxing), Gemini (3rd!), CYHMK, Girlfriend, YRGM, Them Bones, 100% non-fc of CMH *cries*, Bad Reputation (which I voted for last week heh) and a slight improvement on Six. Still plenty more for me to do before I actually have to start FCing new stuff...
And with Shock just tailing us, the race to the top 5 is heating up!
Also, I lol at "comfortable". There's no comfort zone when you're in the top 10 (unless you're NIN >_>). _________________

Wow, I didn't think anyone would say that they could FC this. That would be quite a feat. Hopefully the twist will click for me as well as it clicked for mirror mode. Now to go work on the rest of the songs. At least I can feel good on three of the four songs(I won't say which is the bad one). _________________

Haha, guess who just took that by 40 points.
I should keep working on league songs though.

And I was hoping to go back past you with a Six FC (actually, I'm not sure that's enough anymore...), but my arms are about to fall off thanks to me downstrumming the whole damn thing. *points to #&*(@&* thread in ***** forum*

While that could very well happen, don't be so positive about that.
But re-FC'ing old songs is what's taking up most of my time. I just did a Compare Users thing with emptyset (who's one place ahead of me) and I saw a whole lot of room for improvement and I think I can start closing that gap more there.
You better keep up psx. _________________
