wow, and here i needed the stamina necessary to A max 300 before I could AA either of those songs.

you're probably freaking out and using too much energy, or going ahead of the rhythm and missing steps that way because you're afraid of the whole MAX thing. either that or your rhythm is exceptionally good considering how little stamina you have, i'm not sure.

Fascination ~Eternal Love Mix~ x1.5 Speed, Rainbow and Reverse. It was an extra stage and is the only song I have yet to beat on DDR SuperNOVA.

Max takes extreme stamina. The only way I prep doing it is just doing Maxx 300 consecutivly on Standard and use all of my songs on that one song.

Note that I go to the arcade and train and that I use the time inbetween songs to help me regain. Also I can only accomplish going through the song twice before I fail on the third one due to me losing all of my stamina.

Max 300 (Super-Max-Me-Mix) on Heavy.
I had played once before on Ultramix 2, but before I realized how lenient that game is on failing you, considering I gave up for a moment halfway through, and still managed to pick up again and pass it.

So I tried it on my own computer at home. I consider Stepmania a fair judge of both letter grades, timing, and the whole Clearing/Failing songs business. Anyways, I barely passed it with a D, and then proceeded to fall onto my bed. Easily one of the hardest songs I've beaten, and I haven't yet done it again.

Hmm. Well, I don't really believe stamina is a problem. Sakura may be quick, but it does not deal with a lot of 16th notes (I believe that is the kind of note I'm looking for.)Also, Healing Vision (Angelic Mix) requires quite a bit of stamina, especially if you can AA it.

However, it is not as fast as Max 300 or Sakura. So I think it's registering the speed of Max 300 and knowing when to act on it. I know it's a bit intimidating and tiring, but if you can AA Healing Vision, I don't think your stamina is a problem.
Perhaps you just need practice with faster songs that have more Voltage. I think you'll do fine with streams, it's probably the streams of 16th notes that throw you off, though.

In any case, best of luck to you in the future. :D I'm sure you'll be owning that song before you know it.

As you wish.

First of all you need to figure out your limits. For me on the pad my limit is getting through Max 300 twice. From there you slowly build up on difficulty. Back when I was working on Heavy Mode. I was doing Healing Vision -Angelic Mix-, Sakura both on Standard than A on Heavy. Eventually I got it. Another method I did is that I played it on the controller until it became my memory also I listened to the song a repetitve amount of times until I memorized it. So play your limits in a trial of three and continue to play the song on a lower setting.

*taking notes* XD
CryingWalrus-- You're right about the 16th note streams! That's where I always fail. I'll try the faster songs. Thanks! whee

Ice Mage-- okay. So Max on Standard until I get it well enough to do heavy, and play 3 songs at a time. Got it! Thank you~~

Thanks very much to you both, I'm sure I'll get it now (after some more practice.. XD)!

Basically, and don't over exert yourself.

As an aside, I'll explain what songs have 8th runs and which have 16th runs...some examples...

CSFILSM has 8th runs at 170 bpm
Max 300 has 8th runs at 300 bpm

Very few DDR songs have 16th runs, usually the fastest runs are at bpms of 260 or faster (drop out). For comparison in the case of ITG, most songs with fast streams on expert are comprised of 16th notes, because the bpms are slower.

Charlene has 16th runs at 138 bpm.
Bloodrush has 16th runs at 158 bpm.

So, IF Max 300 were 150 bpm but contained all the same steps, it would have 16th runs at 150 bpm. Same thing, different label. It's useful to know those things though for clarity.

nemesiss
trying to pass certain showdowns on the supernova CS version.
finaly gotten to the last planet, called "The last".
and it got some insane trials to clear like clear CHAOS with a full combo.
or get an A on few of the boss songs on heavy.
Wait til you unlock Pizza Box.

I haven't even bothered with it, if that says anything.

Yeah Trick master Mint told me about that song. I wanna play it.

I think I should also clear myself up.

I know that Max 300 has streams of 8th notes, but because of the speed of the song, even though they are only 8th notes, they act as 16th notes.

That's the reason why I called it a stream of 16th notes. Just for future reference! xD
