Is it just me or...

does 5.1.1. really have no room for anything below Greats?

3 Goods
0 Boo
0 Miss
---------
C Grade. (5.1.1 Std.)

I try again...

2 Goods
0 Boo
0 Miss
---------
A Grade. (Std.)

I suppose 5.1.1. has so few steps, even on Heavy (like barely over 100 Hvy) that you can't really get an A without a stellar performance.

AA Light (1 Great aagh!)
A Std (31 Greats, 2 Goods)
AA Heavy (13 Greats, 1 Good)

I guess you really have to watch out on 5.1.1. no matter how hard it is.

And I came 1 good from FCing Stomp to my Beat Light.

5.1.1 only has 101 steps. So AA'ing it, you'll need a very small amount of greats. And as far as I know, you aren't allowed to miss anything.

i'm pretty sure you'd AA it if you had 100 perfects and 1 miss. I should have Jeff try that one day.

101 Steps... yet it's a 7 footer?

And Abyss Light has nearly 200 steps and is a 2 footer?

How do they justify it?

actually its 103 steps and its a 7 footer cause it has the most awkward gallops you'll ever see.

yeah. 511 heavy has weird steps, and it is very slow, and most ppl aren't good at slow songs without speed. abyss light is... easy. yeah, what chubs said.

The gallops aren't that bad... it's just the speed.

An AA on 5.1.1 is a full combo with 14 greats i think. So that means you can get a miss.

This song still blows though.

Whether it is 101 or 103 steps you can still AA with 1 miss and 1 good (assuming the Max2 dancepoint method is used).

To AA a song with no freezes, you need 86% "equivalent PA." (Comes from greats being worth half as much as perfects.)
One miss is worth 10 greats when counting "equivalent PA."

100 perfects and 1 miss = 10 greats. 10/101 is about 10%, so you'd have 90% "equivalent PA.

So you could get one miss and four greats and still AA the song. Two misses, or even a miss and a boo, and there's no chance of a AA.

Your "13 greats and 1 good" shouldn't have been a AA (85.15%), but maybe there's some rounding issue I don't know about.

Yep. Or maybe I just accidentally put 13 greats instead of 12. My fault. So it would've barely fit in.
