I quit standard when mania came out (like december 2011 or something). I've played a couple songs in std since then but only for nostalgia's sake really.
Nice score on Scarlet Faith, I was never very good at that one for some reason. I was able to S it a few times, but that score has better acc, and would be better score wise than mine if not for the NF. :/ You've got way better ratio than me on it, but my PB has only 21 misses.
EDIT: Getting close to Aing this somehow o.o Chordjacks are HARD

Local best, although it may or may not be a PB because I played that way more than the now 3 scores I have...

Nice! Gratz! And I see you're going right now, doing the DT normals  I spectated you the other day (few weeks ago?), but you didn't react to any messages...
@ bobbias: Yeah, I was a bit disappointed on the misses in scarlet faith. There was no improvement there, compared to my second score.
Your score on the lvl 21 map is simply insane. The latter half of the map is crazy. It's so funny, you say you're out of form, and sometimes I feel like getting closer in skill level. But scores like these make me feel like I'm (light)years away. Are you slowly coming back, or.... 
Don't know the girlish lover map, will check it out soon.

It's more like my skill is all over the place. Some days I'm ass at everything. Some days I can hit LNs pretty well but suck at everything else. Some days I can hit jacks pretty OK, but LNs break my brain. I'm consistently lower acc on basically everything due to not playing enough, but my overall skill level at being able to hit certain patterns has been trending upward, I think. It's just slow, uneven, and very unpredictable. That same session I had a few really depressingly bad scores mixed in with those.
TBH as far as Gorillante is concerned, I feel like I could have done much better when I was in my prime simply because these days I struggle to read big chords, and the fact that I can no longer even get close to passing Two Faced Hammer shows that my jack speed and chord coordination is still lacking quite a bit.

Time for a score dump. Just had a pretty damn good session for my current skill level.
Wasn't expecting to pass this o.o Damn near failed too.

I dont want to see bracket mash for a long long time:

apparently I'm ok at BMS today.

The fuck? (deleted diff, slightly higher SR than the ranked one)

Great scores! Both the davteezy's are way beyond my reach, both reading and intensity. Odin's one of my favourite bms songs, but I can't reach higher than the underjoy lvl 5 version, which isn't even 5 stars :')
For some reason, I couldn't stomach the okochama music. There's something in the lower tones that drives me crazy. (the 2 standard versions I have don't give that effect, strange..)
Could you maybe send me the end time diff? I'm curious..
|
I'm not a huge fan of okochama in general, but it has interesting enough music to often make good maps. Odin is seriously awesome, and I wasn't really even expecting to pass it, because bracketmashes are fucking hell on earth.
Holy shit, I can chordjack?

Here's an osz with all the diffs I have for End Time: https://puu.sh/DPBfy/caccf84e8c.osz
Fuck me this map is hard. I completely disagree with that BMS level. That is not a fucking 16 lmao.

This was better than I expected to do.

Unfortunately I failed Hoshi ga Furanai Machi after the Shang A Lang pass :< I was close though. Just ran out of stamina.

Don't mind us, we've just been playing this game for way too long. 
Edit: I seems I haven't lost my osu standard skills completely. Obviously still not nowhere near they were before, but still fine after such a long break.
5 star (yeah, i know) SS first try.

Nostalgia. I'm not used to AR10 anymore, as the 100s and 50s suggest, although the 50s where all one stream :')
![[image loading]](https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/13508052/9de6)
My left hand seems to have become stronger. Reading capabilities have all but vanished, AR8 is impossible except for super easy songs. The right hand is tricky, it isn't used to fast movements anymore. So I either just miss a lot, or really strain my wrist, which is kind of dangerous. I'll have to be careful lol.

Hana, that actually kinda meshes with how my skills degraded in standard. Even now I'm not as bad as I'd expect, but my aim is even worse than it already was, my reading is lolbad, but my right hand feels easily as good as or better than it used to be. On really easy stuff, I can out acc my old scores, but I can't keep combo to save my life so I can't get any remotely decent scores.

I have a real hard time with anything above ar 9.3 though..

My reading is pretty solid, hasn't really ever been better for low AR / high density and on some maps i actually find them easier at 10.33 than at 9.6 so my acceptable range is great.
Wrist/hand health is way better than it used to be as well, i don't tense as much and i do regular compound exercises which strengthen them now. There's an elevated sensitivity on my right hand if i pull some fingers apart in a certain way but it almost never noticeably bothers me, i probably have a history of damage there that has not been repaired ideally.
Overall i've had some enormous improvements to posture, physical health/performance and mental health/performance from lifestyle improvements so i'd highly recommend to anyone!

What kind of exercises do you do to strenghten your wrists? Regular wrist curls, or something else?
|
United Kingdom20275 Posts
Compound lifts in general, not wrist focused but does help a lot with grip and forearm strength
|
Small question, did they increase health regen during spinners?
In my memory I always failed during spinners with hr, but now it feels like it's super easy to regain health during spinners, regardless of HP. And I can assure you I haven't gotten any faster in the mean time :')
