Haha EOYs are finally over. Damn the effects of the tea i drank earlier are really beginning to kick in. Feeling totally alert now at 2:32am in the morning. Damn.
Anyway, this is part 2 of my Bemani life so far.
Hmm, let's see. Well, I only 'seriously' started DrumMania in January, when school reopened, since it was a lot easier to get out of the house due to school. Hmm... Back then, I wasn't really that hardcore, or cared a big deal about e-amuse. Heck I didn't even know where to buy those cards anyway, so I frequented Northpoint's timezone which had V5, spending about 10 credits a week.
Then one day, on the Sgcafe forum, this forumer called Asuna-Setsuna posted about where the rest of the guys were going to play. I told him I was going to be at Northpoint on thursday night. He agreed through PM and we exchanged numbers.
Little that I know that this guy had the highest sp in Singapore -_-.
Anyway, the days passed real quick and soon, it was thursday. On the bus, my friend called me and told me about 2 imba dudes. One of them was playing at speed 1.0x. Back then I was like whoa. But I realised much later that this guy was a total fag and sour grape. I'm not going to say who it was, but that was my impression of him on the forums.
I inserted my credit when I reached the arcade and waited for my turn. Once the current player had finished, I recognised the next guy as Asuna-Setsuna. I wasn't prepared for what I saw. When he played sound of truth, I was like HOLY MOLY! CCB FUCKING IMBA SIA. He was like getting perfects for almost everything. I was really impressed. Next, he chose Crawl and almost Maxed it. HA! I couldn't even pass Crawl that time as I was still doing 30s without auto, so that was a good start?
In any case, after his credit, he left a lasting impression on me that I will probably never ever forget.
The next day, I bumped into him again, as he had a break or something from camp due to chinese new year. That day, he taught me a few things, such as how to hit pads and bounce sticks and he even told me about how e-amuse could motivate me into becoming a better player. After thinking it through, I decided to get a card.
In V5, TKA dominated all the e-amuse traffic. Did I mention that it was damn expensive at that time? $2.00 for 4 stages (grand prix) OMG. Although 1 stage=1 long, long songs get boring easily. MyV5 card name was BERRY.SG by the way. I didn't know how to chiong sp or songs so I just randomly played stuff. Eventually at the end of V5, I was about 200 sp.
My first FC, if you're curious, is Glamorous Sky ADV. I fc-ed it on 30/01/09. What time, I do not know. Sheesh.
For the next few months, until April, I frequented northpoint, until V6 arrived. (To be continued.)
