Hey, just wanted to put this up for people here as a challenge: PAC-MAN EP

I'm pretty much convinced that it's impossible to get stealth in Ninja Mono with this song.

(Aside: it's a richard james song, but for simplicity on my iPod I renamed it to Apex Twin)

wouldn't it be funny if the scoring system was really an RIAA sting in disguise and the entire game was a ruse to sue illegal downloaders?


They could only prove shit if there were special filetags.

I put mine in by hand.

Speaking of illegal downloads and audiosurf, have they yet gotten around stupid the iTunes store's file protection. Until I can play music I bought on iTunes I'm not going to get this.

The only way around it is the usual way; burn songs to a CD and then rip the CD.

DRM for the lose, eh.

Use a converter?

Freecorder? Launch your files from browser then record the song then play it in audiosurf.

ok, no.

There's a box you can check to have your music go through iTunes so that you can use them. I really hate iTunes so I don't use it and hence have no idea if this actually works, but it looks like what you're looking for.

Shaper! I beat your score.

Also I think it's possible to get stealth on that song. Perhaps. Point is, if you want to see a REAL impossible song, I can hook you up.

Well, ok, I'm sure it's POSSIBLE, but you're going to have to use jump alot and sac your score. And yes, please hook a brother up. Unless it's just obnoxious, I actually really love playing the song I linked to.

Well, it's SORT of obnoxious... it's an old Moby song which held (maybe it still does) the world record for the most beats per minute. I gets pretty hilarious. It's worth playing at least once.

Actually the tool you want which is just released, is Doubletwist. Strips DRM out of iTunes, and can batch process!

No. For a long time I was playing it to keep the top spots of a handful of songs. Then people came in with other characters and dominated in ways that were impossible for me to compensate with because I'm no good outside of Mono Pro. Anyways, I get random songs and play them all the time and still compete on a few songs for top 5 spots.

Yeah, I really wish they had seperate boards for each character. I can understand why they don't; they can hardly handle the three types of boards they have right now. But still, it's frustrating.

I finally got around to playing this! I bought it when it came out, but then for the longest time I only had it downloaded on my laptop which has no proper mouse or MP3 collection. I wrote this thing about it, too!

Is it just me, or is the "Add a friend" interface only available after you finish a song? That's obnoxious. Anyway, my friend name is SpindleyQ! ADD MEEE.
