I called the MeF help desk today and have had it confirmed that acknowledgements are merely sporadically given in response to submissions if they have errors in them. This didn't happen before, so why now? Though they said that submissions without errors will always get an acknowledgement, how can I be sure of that?

Moving on.

vox up, quell, jam, starmine, beer

Cute course. I think Vox Up is the only song I have at 202 BPM so I should recognize it if it leads things off by now. I think I did better this time with Quell than last time (which was ... three days ago) but not by much; still nothing I can really do but mash and pray for those 16th snare rolls. Jam hasn't come around for a while and feels rather easy now, save for two phrases where everything is thrown at you at once. Nothing special with Starmine. Beer is a song that I haven't played in what seems like months, and it may well have been that long since. Seems like I didn't get too tripped up by it. Not thrilled by the miss count in general, as only the first two songs are ones which really make for trouble.

Continuing in CS land for Extra Mode.

Another pretty good day. Some increases were very minor, but are still improvements. I keep being painfully reminded that songs like Tori no Kimochi and Unicorn Tail let you build up to a good head of steam just to crash it all down in mere measures.

In other news - my wife presented me with a printout of this picture which she drew for me as a birthday gift. Ponies in my IIDX? Sure, why not. Why the hell not. Took me by surprise to say the least.
