General stick discussion

I'm starting to be less of a spaz on stick! I had a nice game of TAP Master on stick yesterday -- S8, 998 @ 8:5x. As far as I could tell, I just needed one more tetris to get S9 and had all other requirements beside the time.

EDIT: S9 993 @ 8:5x today. Feels good. >:]

 

I have an LS-32-01. I tried playing it with NullpoMino and quickly discovered that the deflection is a killer.

 

I've used an LS-32 a lot, but I don't get what you mean by deflection. Could you elaborate?

 

Releasing a stick without holding it will cause it to bounce and hit the opposite direction for an instant, resulting in a misstep.

 

Interesting. That was a big problem for me when I moved from Seimitsu LS-32 to Sanwa JLF, and in general I've only heard of people having this problem with Sanwas. Granted I was using a regular LS-32, but I read somewhere that the joystick mechanism itself is identical with the -01 and only the wiring was changed.

 

I have a bootleg JLF that came with the stick I inserted my LS-32-01 into and had absolutely no problems with deflection with it. I only swapped it out because I play shmups more than I do fighting games.

 

wow, I wonder if this is my problem when I use a fast DAS setting on tetris friends and blockbox?

for some reason the piece always moves and extra space when I tap back away from the wall making fast DAS nearly impossible to play. I don't have this issue in texmaster, heboris or nullpomino.
