Moving to another site

so yeah, after not updating this in half a year.....

figured i might as well use a blog to share my thoughts, and some progress on a few things.
i'll move to wordpress, and on an actual domain or something, probably later today.. that's if i can actually pay for it, since i'm a little short on money -v-

i'll tweet the new site later(or post here), if you wanna keep me in your blogroll.
and if you want me to feature you in mine, just tweet me.

-36 Blue Lagoon

Well just got this yesterday, on a random game with some beginner BR that wasn’t annoying and AFF-ing all over the place, so it’s nice..

 

I’ll try to explain the misses(scorecard is BL front)

Hole 1: Don’t know the green slope, tried finding it out with the abacus method, turns out it changes after a few pb, so meh..

Hole 2: 1y short, probably because I’m just starting to use power method, but it’s fine now

Hole 9: ppic, but I was sure it’ll go in if i didn’t ppic T__T it was 1m too (hole 6-9 all got 1m)

Hole 11: Honestly, this hole hates me :/ tee shot for tomahawk approach, but it got facked up.. cause the wind was 8m around 60-70 degrees for the tee shot, so I used 7i.. then got some uber slope + 2w restriction… It couldn’t reach anyway, even with 11 spin :/ so yeah, facked on that hole

Hole 18: See pic above, lol.. Facked up tee shot, even on 3m… and then shot got overcut =/

 

So close to –41 T__T if I were focusing more, and actually paid more attention on some stuff, that would be at least –40 ;_;

 

And for those who are wondering why I used 264, instead of 266… It’s because I wanted more ctr so things like hole 9 don’t happen ._.

*EDIT*
Thanks to Mr. 7x for helping me with some stuff lol…

Major improvements

For the past 3 months of pangya, I noticed I had a huge improvement on a short period of time..
I'm gonna use one of my old post about card packs as a reference, cause that's when I started improving little by little.

As you can see, I've spent nearly a month playing with my 270y semi-calc method(which seems to be working fine at that time) And just after 3 weeks of 270y, I've decided to use complete HWI sets and actual calculating.. I found this 264y one from the web and tried it out.
I've had my doubts about calcing, because my shots never went in at first, then corrected my mistakes, use a more simple method for some values..
And after 4 days I got that -32 pink wind record. yes, just 4 days of calculating practice will take you to -32 if you're doing it right. I know I commented on mygo's blog saying it's 2 weeks, but I didn't really count the days when I commented lol, it only took me 4 days.

More than a month has passed since then, and I have new records on all courses, except for ice spa, because I need 2w HWIs which I don't have yet now. And of course wind hill, cause I'm staying away from that until I get at least -30 on all courses

Well I can say that I'm proud of myself for learning it in a short period of time, and honestly it's not that hard if you know what you're doing.

Latest record I have is Blue Lagoon -33, with 9982 pangs.. I was raging when it didn't reach 10k but hey, it's a part of learning, I'll get it later..

Currently using 266y drive, I really wanna play with 276y, but I can't take advantage of high drives for now, cause I still don't have 2w/3w/iron HWIs, and also dunk HWIs. I'll use that drive for sure when I'm at least national pro, or world pro.. That's when I think I'll have the skills to use a monster drive like that(Maybe with SR lola card too!)

Expect more records from me, It's either White wiz or ice cannon next.. And maybe that ice spa -40 I wanted 3 months ago

Sidenote:
I challenged ColdFireGurl into studying pangya calculations, and she must chip at least 2/3 holes in a 3 hole VS game.. But I have to beat her in pokemon with E.V. training in return :D fun stuff

First non-Spa -30... or -32

Pink Wind, inventory was 1 Milk, 1 Spin mastery, 1 Safety, 1 Boost/pill, rest are pots, no silent winds, ran out of them lol..

I wanted a -30, so I tomahawked most of them, even though I HATE doing tomahawks if I can bs it, turned out pretty good, got a few 0.1y misses due to bad angle reads
Didn't HIO h4, was short 1y on 1m horizontal wind

*NOTE* It's -32, not -30, I took the screenie too soon, when it was still -30, count it yourself if you don't believe me :P

Sigh...

Failed the spa record, and taking a break from it for now, even with bob and 20 spin it's still hard to do it T^T..

Doing silvia now, got a 270y guide from a certain korean website that you probably know already, translated to english, also converted from tiles > PB.. And no, I'm not gonna release it, and don't ask where I got it from if you don't know.

I also got a few records, not much, but better than before, got those with lots of chokes, ppics, and angle misread.. If only I have better angle reading skillz T_T

FFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUU-

Played spa with a friend, got HIO on 2, good run incoming but...

The guy decided to be a bitch about it, and quitted on hole 3 -_-

I'll get you someday jamez *shakes fist*

Update.. I guess

Played a lot of IS this week, none of them got past -34.. It just keeps giving me random UL spots from chutes, or unexpected ppics..

But those chutes are the reason why I like playing spa, people will think spa as a 'noob pang course that hackers play'.. I don't, I like playing there because I wanna figure out how to do those crazy chute HIOs, and just alternative playing, it's like a challenge to me.. I may not be good at chipping, but I find it really boring if it's just regular chips on a really easy course, like PW for example.. inb4 spa is a 1 star course, it may be an easy 1 star course, but it's hard to get the top score because it requires special calculations for chutes.. easy to play, hard to master.

Expect a -38 or more by mid september, I just need to get all of this UL and ppic mistakes gone.. And by the time I got that score, I'm sure people would report me as a hacker, cause my other course records are shit, and I have a 61% pangya rate (lol)(cell)
