Congratulations on improving your scores! I guess you can concentrate really good on the songs you're playing since you're aiming for SSS scores.
You were lucky to play 3 (?) games today

. I didn't have much time after visiting the castle, so I played only 1 game... and as you foresaw, I got an SS! Nice!

I got in on Golden House (basic) song - 955767. I also got better score on 凛として咲く花の如く and SigSig.
I haven't played Kiss & Ride and Baka Survivor yet. I will try it next time maybe.
Does a marker really helps that much? In fact I still haven't figured out how should I react to a marker. Of course I know I have to touch it when the marker closes down, but somehow it doesn't help me so much. Most of the time I go with the beat and press it on feeling
