Does anyone know any good maps for practising streaming?
I love it; Even today after playing for two years, if I'm having trouble with a map and I'm getting close to the end without missing, I get anxious and shaky.

[QUOTE=EcksDee;41965301]certain people keep telling me to practice streams by doing stuff that are just above your skill level though[/QUOTE] The streams aren't above my skill level! They're just something I sometimes have trouble with because I'm used to faster streams. I'm uploading an embarrassing replay right now which shows how much trouble I really have with streaming. It's not really about being able to stream, it's maintaining accuracy and endurance that mess me up, which is why I almost never play anything longer than 2 minutes. [editline]26th August 2013[/editline] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QeRdUn1YcGM[/media] Okay, here. It's not a map I've played too much, and that was actually the first time I passed it. As you can see, my accuracy is garbage and I do some really stupid mistakes. I'll just blame that on not having warmed up.
your cursor isn't where it should be in a lot of streams
Ah yeah that accuracy and endurance really messes you up Look on the bright side, at least it's not accuracy, endurance and speed < :(

might i suggest playing at a lower resolution? it looks like you are using a low dpi and playing at high resolutions like that can be hard
You guys should check [url=http://osu.ppy.sh/forum/t/99612]this thread[/url] out, I made it a while ago and it got stickied and I guess it's suitable to post when people are asking for little tips to do with playing. Here's the streaming section. [quote]Down to actually streaming. I like to split streams into two categories, long and fast. A long stream for me is anywhere from 20 to 200 notes while a fast stream is any stream which you would consider hard to click from the start of the stream to the end. It helps to be able to recognise the two streams as it will allow you to approach them in different ways (I certainly do this). Fast streams are generally the area you should practice to improve your general streaming ability, you can't stream for a long time if you can't stream for a short time. Personally I find that to clear streams of this speed I unconsciously tense my arm whilst lifting my fingers only as far as they need to go. To achieve speed you must practice speeds that are above your comfort level (but not to the point where you miss every single note), I would recommend using the doubletime mod to improve your streams. On the opposite side of the spectrum, longer, slower streams require a very different approach for me; rather than tensing heavily you should be relaxing your hand to get comfortable with the speed of the map, if you aren't relaxed you will burn out a lot faster. Some other things which I believe has helped my streaming ability is simply raising my pinky/ring finger whilst I'm streaming. This may just be my preference but I have done it since the beginning and it's worked out fine for me. [/quote] If you guys can come up with a list of practice maps to add to it I'll happily stick them in there.
my no.1 streaming tip: don't rest your palm on your keyboard if you do, let the weight of your hand help you press keys

Keyboard is nice when typing but not hwen you actually gotta be hyperfast and shit. I don't tense my arm anymore, as I find my shit speed lowers even more when I do that. I need to find a proper keyboard yo. I might be shifting the blame but at this point I do think that's what messing me up.

i wanted to see if I could make a fancy hit/miss thing for mania mode, but I forgot that it applies some kind of dumb transformations to the hit markers so unfortunately it's impossible atm here's an example: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEB80FKQfQo[/media] and here's the hit markers themselves: [img]http://i.imm.io/1g8qP.png[/img] [img]http://i.imm.io/1g8qT.png[/img] [img]http://i.imm.io/1g8qX.png[/img] [img]http://i.imm.io/1g8r5.png[/img] [img]http://i.imm.io/1g8r7.png[/img] [img]http://i.imm.io/1g8rd.png[/img] maybe someone will find a use for them because they're pretty useless atm i guess I could convert them into a fancy score display
okey I decided to go back and try to full combo all of the easy/normal/hard mania-specific songs with DT/HD on, so I could get faster at mashing buttons. After getting a fair amount of them, I wanted to try doing an insane song with DT/HD. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TtIDikBGOBw[/media] nope nope nope nope nope

I can't even begin to play with 5K because it's already too confusing at times for me.
Well I broke 4000 pp suddenly [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SI_qzQKJ80c]I happened to record it to[/url] is pretty fun watching the ol' hand do its work since my tablet area is essentially the whole tablet. final run starts at like 1:35 must get better, go me
Pretty much ever since I got back into osu! I've wanted to full combo this god damn map (And it's not even that hard compared to other stuff I've FCed, to be honest it's pretty easy) Today, I tried it again, after countless failures. [img]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1521749/ShareXmod/2013-08/2013-08-26_18-44-14.jpg[/img] I did it. Those 2 100s are kind of pissing me off, though.

[QUOTE=EcksDee;41973835]I never understood if that would be 2 or 4 100s since I mean, it counts end of number sequence as a separate hit you know what I mean[/QUOTE] I think it was 2.. I can check the replay later.
