Let It Out

I always thought Kimono Princess was easier, the only difficult parts are the little burst of 16ths triplets. Although Max 300's patterns are easier it's a bit more draining in my opinion and the slowdown kills your momentum.

Just beat it with a 'B' about a half-hour ago on PS2. Not as hard as I remember it, but still consistently hard.

This is reminding that I really should try and pass MAX 300 sometime soon. Especially considering I can pass NGO and a few other charts that are supposedly more difficult than it...
So far I've passed six 15s: Valkyrie dimension , Romancing Layer (both of which are too easy for 15 IMO), ZETA , Unreal , NGO , and roppongi EVOLVED B .

^I got close to beating ZETA once at a modified ITG2 cabinet. About 70% through I ran out of breath

I can pass MAX 300 at home, but not at the arcade. I got an "A" rank, if I remember correctly. I've also passed Xepher once on a SN machine; don't remember what rank, that was many years ago.

The hardest legit (not Stepmania) DDR song i've passed to date was "I'm So Happy" on DDR II for Wii with an "A". I don't know how the hell I pulled that off.

I feel like my stamina has plateaued for about a decade or so, and can't seem to get past low to mid 10 footers without feeling like i'm about to die (of exhaustion); no matter how much practice I put in.

If you're just aiming to pass difficult songs and don't care about score, I found intentionally getting lazy kind of helps. As Goods don't decrease your health, the only thing you have to watch out for is a total miss (and an N.G, and a boo if you playing an older mix) and you can use that to your advantage. Intentionally play a little slower - if missing a step means conserving stamina, especially for the second half of Max 300 as that's when the song gets hard, go for it.

I was listening to music on Spotify, and a commercial came up. It was another "Upgrade Now" type of thing. They were shuffling songs, and I'm certain one of them was the beginning to I Need You (Insideout Door Mix).

About to head to Anime Weekend Atlanta. Gonna be the first non-A-Kon convention I've gone to in over ten years.

Have a good time! I might be at Hollywood Fun Park in Illinois this Weekend trying out their SuperNOVA cabinet (If they still have it, anyway.)

Konami HQ is on fire

...again?

Flash cards are a pain in the butt

So like, my hubcap flew off my tire earlier. I made a sharp turn into a parking lot because the dividers for the opening were so narrow, that a minivan almost took up both lanes. Literally, all the entrances into this parking lot was like this. The sharp turn made me hit the curb, thus scratching up the hubcap, and removing it from my tire. Somehow, I managed to put it back in my tire, but now I'm scared that it might happen again. I can imagine driving down a busy highway, and my hubcap flies off like a shuriken and smashes into a car. -shudders-. My friend told me that if I snapped it back into place (which I did), and it doesn't move around by itself (I moved it around, and it seemed stable), then I should be fine. I'm taking his word for it for now, but if that hubcap flies off like a freaking shuriken, I will panic.

I remember last year when I made a video on my top 30 worst songs of the 2010's decade (so far) and... LOL as you guessed, they're songs I hated that you probably love(d). Check it out and make sure you DISlike the video and subscribe me lmfao

Well, my car is kill. I have a 1999 Dodge Neon, and on the way home, the electronics started freaking out and the car slowed to a crawl, and as the radiator temperature reading was sat at a neutral level for a while, it suddenly shot way up and I quickly turned the car off, because I thought it was gonna blow or something - right in the middle of a busy road. I am car illiterate beyond "put key in hole, push pedal to make it move."

Any car experts here know what happens when the front gauges and such start fading and acting all wonky, lighting things up that shouldn't be lit up? Would that even be a factor to making the car slow down tremendously?

Sounds like a sirv mod and an alternator issue. Had it happen to my car. Cost me around 400 dollars.

---

Sounds like the alternator died. It could run you $75-$500+ depending on the location of the alternator and what needs to be removed to fix/replace it.

This happened to me about 3 months ago.

This. If you managed to get it started again, you can tap the alternator with a wrench to see for sure. If it hesitates with a decent tap, it's dying/dead.

Not really serious. Do some research online, because it's not a terribly complex job in most cases. If you're short on cash, you might be able to do it yourself. In any case, make sure you keep your old alternator and trade it in for a core charge.
