100 bmIIDX survey 1/5

Here’s a survey japaneses created for beatmania/beatmania IIDX players long time ago, and now, at 23:56pm I decided to copy, paste and answer. I took this from ROOTS26, website where the amazing webmisstress did the whole translating job, so give credits to her and to the site if you’re filling this for you, because it took time and hard job!

Here’s also a ready-to-fill copy of the survey.
So, let’s do it! My first 20 questions

1. What’s your handle? What name do you use on the high score screen?
A: ASATO. I don’t freakin’ care there’s already an Asato on DDCS.

2. What’s your age and sex?
A: Female, liek woah.

3. When did you fill out these questions?
A: September 11/12, 2007

4. Where do you usually play? Is it usually crowded?
A: At home, and well, is usually crowded because I live with a lot of people. Sometimes all of’em are in my room (the place in where I game, ta-da), and 5 people in a not-so-small room… well. it looks filled anyway.

5. What date did you start playing IIDX?
A: Honestly I started like one year ago. Maybe two. But just now I started paying more attention to the game since my cousin Ebisu is living with me and lends me his controller :) those are pretty rare and expensive here, and there’s no fuckin’ way I’ll get one for me for now.

6. Your current level is …
A: 7KEYS/HYPER

7. Are you an arcade player or a CS player?
A: CS Player. There’re no IIDX arcades in my country, and just once I found a ‘hiphopmania’ arcade. I think it was 4th style, don’t remember. The thing is that’s the only original arcade I’ve seen without counting the DDRs.

8. Do you play single play? Double play? Do you play primarily one-handed?
A: Single play and don’t think to double play until I get another controller. I tried one-hand playing once, but it hurts so much to leave all the hard job to just one hand.

9. What’s more important to you? Clearing hard songs or getting high EX score?
A: For now, and honestly, clearing hard songs. I don’t care much about the scores.

10. What made you start playing IIDX?
A: GOLI arts! And the awesome songs I heard like ‘Last Message’, ‘Blame’, ‘Drivin”, ‘Spin The Disc’, ‘rislim’, ‘Ultra High Heels’, and the list goes on!! (:

11. What’s your favorite IIDX style? What’s your favorite song from each style (the “song of the style”)?
A: Mostly the dark-themed ones but for now my favourite is RED. And a song for each style:
3rd - DR. LOVE
4th - ULTRA HIGH-HEELS ~ I Just Wanna Tell You
5th - RISLIM
6th - Free Style
7th - Tomorrow Perfume
8th - 蒼い衝動
9th - one or eight
10th - Freezing atmosphere
RED - RED ZONE
HAPPY SKY - CaptivAte～浄化～
DistorteD - Look To The Sky (cyber True Color)
GOLD - CaptivAte～誓い～

12. Who’s your favorite artist?
A: Sota Fujimori (:

13. What’s your favorite genre?
A: Just one? I’m stuck between RAVE/Drum’n Bass/Happy Hardcore/Insert here a KONMAI-fan-created genre

14. What are your favorite three songs (in order)?
A: HARD ONE.
1. Free Style
2. Tomorrow Perfume
3. RED ZONE
The list, of course, goes on, as always, but I can’t enlarge it anymore >:. Survey things.

15. Do you have any songs you don’t like playing but like the music for?
A: I have to say that ‘Bleeding Luv ～Immorality act～’. The chart is horrible, but I like to listen the first 3/4 of the song.

16. Is using the EASY mod cheating?
A: I don’t think is cheating, since, when you start playing is hard to get used to the controller. I remember, when I started playing, my fingers even hurted because of hitting the keys, and maybe, if only I had used EASY mod, I wouldn’t have ’suffered’ much. Anyway, I never used it and now I play enough well to clear HYPER 9 songs (:.

17. What high speed level do you play at?
A: AS FAST AS I CAN. No, not really, depends of the song. I refuse to play ‘DUE TOMORROW’ with 5.0 (which is the highest you can play actually).

18. Ever died an instant death cause a fast song came on in a ranking course while you were on HS3?
A: I don’t really play courses, honestly. Free and Standart are my thing.

19. What do you think of autoscratch?
A: Very usefull when you feel lazy and when your fingers start hurting like woah (:

20. Do you rush to build your combo back if you break it?
A: Sometimes, only if I’m not too focused on clearing the song, for instance.
