Nightmare's reply to "When precisely is the perfect moment to tap the beat?" was just promoted to the most useful! Mislav and 2 other people think it's one of the best replies.

This is always the biggest problem with rhythm games. Syncing is always an issue because of delays in hardware (aka speed of sound vs speed of light), so it's sometimes difficult to get songs to match up nicely with what buttons are supposed to be pressed.

I've also had the problem of finding the window on this game, and being a long time rhythm game player (Read: DDR, ITG, PIU, IIDX), it really frustrates me that although you can obtain different point values for hitting a circle at a certain time, there is no indicator as to how close you were to the ideal value for each note.

No rhythm game is ever synced perfectly, and it's up to the user to be able to determine just how early or late a song is in comparison with its chart, whether it be just a tiny bit early, or even really late. Without some form of visual cue as to how accurately you hit each note, you're really just stumbling in the dark, hoping that you're getting that 150 points on every note, when in most cases you aren't, due of course to syncing and its inherent imperfection.

In short, visual cues need to be added to each corresponding point value, whether it be like other rhythm games do it with "Perfect", "Great", simply flashing the point value obtained (Preferably with different colors), or in some other unique way.

A comment on the question "Wrong name chosen for this service?" in Soocial:

You could have named it "Coontacts" or "Sinchr" :P – Mislav, on February 16, 2009 14:35

Wrong name chosen for this service?

This service is named "Soocial", which implies social features.

However, this application has none. In fact, all data is very personal. The service helps me be more organized, not more social.

I'm not suggesting that you change your name, I just wanted to state my observation. Thanks ;)

Mislav started following the question "Can Soocial synchronise Gmail contact groups?" in Soocial.

Mislav shared an idea in Soocial on February 16, 2009 00:30:

"unknown" contacts can at least show information like email

It's depressing to see tens of these always at the top of the list:

These contacts may not have names, but they have emails. They should be shown at the listing, or any other piece of available information, just not "unknown" because it's not helpful at all.

It's no secret - my skitch username is "mmarohnic"

Thanks for the immediate response!

How can I make skitch.com forget my Twitter password?

I've given Skitch my Twitter password, but I don't use the feature. Now I want it to forget it, but it doesn't allow me.

A comment on the problem "avatar sizes in HTML and CSS don't match" in Twitter:

Yes, that's exactly what mdy described. I'm fine with this, because scaled-down images don't look so ugly compared to ones which are scaled up. – Mislav, on July 03, 2008 18:23

Disregard the question mark in my last name; it seems GetSatisfaction doesn't handle Unicode well (although they *do* serve pages in UTF-8)

Mislav reported a problem in Twitter on April 11, 2008 16:28:

avatar sizes in HTML and CSS don't match

In my home page, the top of the sidebar says "Hi, Mislav Marohni?" and displays a small icon that is my avatar. HTML for that IMG tag says the icon size is 24x24 px and the PNG image is indeed that size. But, CSS says the size is 31x31 (screen.css, line 368), which takes precedence and resizes the icon a few pixels up making it look bad.
