I use them once in a while for variation, but the only song I use them on regularly is Bag, which, I sadly can not pass unless its on at least x3

I use mostly 2x, screw 1.5x cause it sometimes can be slow, and as for 3x I use sometimes.

^_~ I use speed mods obsessively, and I regularly place third or fourth (placed first last tourney) in our tournaments, which are all no-mod tourneys.

And yes, me being stupid... I know that there's nothing between 200 and 220 on Extreme, but if there were then that would of course be my upper threshold (I said that before, I think riiight.gif ). I absolutely refuse to use 1.5x on anything such as Mikeneko Rock or The Least 100 Seconds. *too fast!* riiight.gif I'd fail.

Yay! 1.5x! My work here's done. E4.gif

It was 2x. 3x is just horribly wrong. BTW for all those speed freaks like me, I can controller any song 180 and below at 3x. I have some nice reflexes *bares his fangs*

I use 1.5x most of the time. I basically use any multiplier that will get me closest to 300 bpm ... so if the song is 100 bpm, i'd use 3x, if the song was 150, i'd use 2x etc.

the speed of the arrows in songs around 300 bpm are ideal for me.

In my case, it's just the opposite. A little while ago, I tried The Least 100sec on x1, and I failed, so I thought that perhaps it would be easier on x1.5; I tried it, and I got a B.

I'll go 1.5x if the song is under 125 bpm. Beyond that, I usually have no trouble reading the arrows. It's just hitting them that's a pain sometimes biggrin.gif

In the arcade, anything (except Bag) under 200BPM gets a 1.5.


blink.gif I think I've found my Lower 48 twin... mod-wise, I mean. riiight.gif The only difference there is that the threshold is 220 BPM; anything at 200 gets the treatment as well. 1.5x whores represent! *shot* E15.gif

On an unrelated note, my Beatmania (teh Final) habits are just as horrible... Separate 2x (anything < 200 BPM) or even 3x ( anything < 110)


Yep, 1.5x WHORE all the way right here! I think I'm your guys long lost triplet. 1.5x Whores all the way!

i could add more words

not being able to AA bag on 1x makes you dumb for choosing to do it that way.

110>3x>180

Yes i use 3x on anything faster then 110 and slower then 180. All 26 of my AAAs have been on 3x. Even fast stuff like Sync and Mobo Moga. Ill use 5x on anything under 110 thats not BIMP or Bag (8x)

for me i always go 1x. Although this dosent mean i hate on people who go 2 or 3x or whatever.. i agree people need it for purposes of PA, like AAAing stuff or simply AA and what not. But when it gets to the point where someone can pass something like Afronova on times 2, but cant even read a simple 8 footer times one and get a B.. thats wrong. thats when i frown at these people. But then again, its their money and their game.. the same has been mentioned for previous bar hugging topics. Each person does whatever he wants for his enjoyment.. but if youre trying to prove your skills to others, dont go around AAing songs on 2x and failing them without any mods.
