I've been participating in as much record threads as possible and I thought it was time to create one myself. I was actually surprised that there was no thread for this mode yet. But then again there has been a TAP Master BIG MODE record thread available for a while now. I shamelessly copied Rosti LFC's TAP Master BIG Mode thread to be honest. Feel free to make suggestions for a better leaderboard format. BIG MODE To start BIG MODE use the following key combination at the title screen: LLLLDCBA Code: Player Grade Level Time ----------------------------------------------- 1 | Caithness | Gm | 999 | 08:22:13 | 2 | Shuey (NullpoMino) | Gm | 999 | 10:26:85 | video 3 | EnchantressOfNumbers | S9 | 599 | 05:32:21 | video 4 | colour_thief | S9 | 499 | 07:37:56 | 5 | rednefed | S9 | 497 | 04:50:86 | 6 | NicoFromTokyo | S9 | 462 | 05:05:63 | video 7 | Ai | S9 | 452 | 03:50:45 | 8 | JBroms | S9 | 449 | 04:3-:-- | 9 | Oliver | S9 | 436 | 04:23:26 | 10 | Aperturegrillz | S6 | 343 | 03:33:41 | 11 | Rosti LFC | S6 | 299 | 02:48:90 | BIG 20G MODE To start BIG 20G MODE use the following key combinations at the title screen: LLLLDCBA and DDDDDDDDCBA Code: Player Grade Level Time---------------------------------------- 1 | Elyot | Gm | 999 | 08:13:26 | 2 | JBroms | S9 | 673 | --:--:-- | 3 | iKantu | S9 | 622 | 05:23:78 | 4 | DeHackEd | S9 | 554 | 04:51:78 | 5 | rednefed | S9 | 523 | 04:29:01 | 6 | EnchantressOfNumbers | S9 | 460 | 03:35:63 | 7 | NicoFromTokyo | S9 | 399 | --:--:-- | 8 | Kitaru | S6 | 3-- | --:--:-- | 9 | Ai | S3 | 204 | 01:50:98 | Here are 3 BIG 20G MODE GM videos by the Japanese player SAL: Gm in 08:52:98 Gm in 09:16:65 Gm in 09:54:33 BIG REV MODE To start BIG REV MODE use the following key combinations at the title screen: LLLLDCBA and DUUDCBA Code: Player Grade Level Time --------------------------------------- 1.

Re: [TGM1] BIG MODE S6 (75584) - 299 - 2:48:90 It wouldn't quite be so annoying that half-steps exist if it wasn't for the fact that every damn block spawns in one.
Re: [TGM1] BIG MODE Just now. Half asleep. I took needless risks, was surprised by the speed increase after level 250 and missdroped. Really should have gotten S6. Well I'm getting used to this now... Should I add the score and number of bravos too? Also, feel free to play this mode together with 20G or other modes. I will be adding the leaderboards when someone submits a personal record.
Re: [TGM1] BIG MODE Seeing as score is largely irrelevant and without skill, I'd say that level should be the main thing, followed by time.
Re: [TGM1] BIG MODE Today's first-try result of the day is S7 at Lv 362 in 3:19.83, died on a misaligned drop. My best record ever is:
Re: [TGM1] BIG MODE Minor improvement but still no higher grade unfortunately and score is a lot lower than my previous best too. I've also been playing some BIG MODE 20G and this is my best result so far. EDIT: Something unbelievable happened just now! Nothing special you would say. But the thing is, this is BIG MODE REV!!! WOW am I strange or what (or maybe extremely lucky)?! I think I'll create a new leaderboard seeing as I can't compete in the regular one. LOL!!! EDIT:
Re: [TGM1] BIG MODE Code: 2. colour_thief S9 499 07:37:56 Time is so slow because I was trying my hardest to get many bravos. I only got 2.
Re: [TGM1] BIG MODE Thanks for your participation! I can only get one bravo per game when I'm lucky. And playing slow doesn't seem to work for me. This mode is really hard. It seems one needs a lot of luck if you're not extremely skilled. I mean I played 100+ games of BIG MODE and getting S6 was a pain to achieve (most games I get around S3). But on the other hand in BIG MODE REV I managed to get S8 within 20 games or so. I might achieve S9 one day, but GM is close to impossible. By the way I've seen BIG MODE 20G GM videos from SAL, but I was wondering if anyone knows of regular BIG MODE GM videos which I would assume is less difficult?
Re: [TGM1] BIG MODE 20G: S1, 177, 1:30:33, 1 bravo (a single at the beginning, lol) I keep killing myself by getting locked in a half-step, and being caught by surprise by the spawns (I'm used to TAP's big mode movement).
Re: [TGM1] BIG MODE Thanks! This will keep me trying in 20G. All bravos I get are after clearing triples with the L or J piece and occasionaly doubles with the T-piece. As for half-step misdrops, it happens very rarely now before level 250. And I have yet to play BIG MODE seriously in TAP. I think my best was grade 4 a while ago.
Re: [TGM1] BIG MODE Improved my 20G grade. Managed to combo my way back down twice when I was about to top out. 300th post!
Re: [TGM1] BIG MODE Very nice and thanks for bumping this thread. I did try to improve my regular big mode rank during the weekend, but I didn't manage to get higher than S4. Need more people playing this! ;p
Re: [TGM1] BIG MODE This is what I do when I become mad at myself for misdropping with sonic drop. Play a game without it. Plus this pulls me out from the bottom of the heap. S7, 322 @ 3:35:91 1 bravo [Edit] New 20G record. Halfway to SAL. S9, 523 @ 4:29:01
Re: [TGM1] BIG MODE Congrats with your S9. It would be awesome if you could get GM! I'll try to close the gap, but first I need to improve my Big Mode S6.
Re: [TGM1] BIG MODE Another bump while I'm on my TGM1 binge. S9, 497 @ 4:50:86 169148 points, 1 bravo
