Anyhow, I got two high scores while playing.. I don't know if that means crap or not. Some kid asked me if I knew some other kid... He was a bar raper. Do all the kids rape the bar these days?
I'm not sure wtf is up with the SuperNOVA songlist. Apparently, i found this out the other day, when you pick your difficulty level before you play, you get different songlists just for that difficulty.

I actually planned on going today after school, but instead took a nap and went to a comedy show with my girlfriend. Hah.

Yeah, I do know that kid, he uses the bar because he sees me playing with it. ITG2 used to be there, so... 11s and 12s on ITG pretty much require a bar to get a good scores on. Unless you're TaQa. :lol:

As I found out today, you're right. Different difficulties = partially different song lists. So far, medium seems to have the best song list.

I found the All Music option. At the "Select your style" screen, scroll down past expert, nonstop, challenge and what not. The bottom has "All Music"

Last time I went (Wednesday), they had turned the sound up in the working speaker, so playing it is tolerable, but not amazing.

I think it was still blown on friday when i was there... it's pretty noticeable on songs that send certain portions of the melody or whatnot to that specific channel only...

Yup, my thoughts exactly.

Anyway, has anyone checked the audio cable between the main system unit and the audio amplifier? When the GXS machine was having audio problems, it turned out to be a simple matter of that cable being bad. That's like a $2 fix for a new cable. In fact, most people have spares just lying around.

Of course the Shaffer ownership can make this issue a bit more problematic...

I guess that didn't come out just right. Give me a break, I'm drugged out on cold medicine today. :P

I'm sure you already figured it out, but I was quoting myself because I had already said something that roughly mirrored what SirPhobos had said.

the P1 down arrow started sticking in the "on" position today for me.

Isn't this machine like two weeks old?

New machines seem to have problems with sticky arrows until they get broken in. Pump, ITG (basically the same as Pump), and Betson SN stages all seem to have this problem. It seems to go away within a month or so as the machine gets played.

The left speaker still isn't working.
