THIS WILL AFFECT ONLY V2 MACHINES!

If you play on HAZARD and you fail any one song due to hazard, irregardless of how well you do (Example: You got all Perfects for your song before you screw up and got 2 Poors, failing your stage), you will get an E/F grade for that song and hence, you can never get any Extra stages.... Same goes for Encore and Premium stages....

So if you want Extra/Encore/Premium stages easily, DO NOT play on HAZARD!

Note: I am aware of an issue regarding people having an easy way getting Premium/Encore stages by abusing the HAZARD mode..... Simply get 95 to 97 Perfects before intentionally failing your Extra Stage to get an Encore stage. For a Premium Stage, get 98 to 100 Perfects and then fail.... This exploit will make the machine think that 100 Perfects=100% Perfects for that Extra Stage, hence giving the player Premium Stage....

Fortunately, this exploit was fixed later on for E-MUSE ENABLED machines... So, DO NOT try this at any E-MUSE machines.... And I am very sure that this will be fixed for all V3 machines....

I think that's all for now....

For Hazard you are allowed to get poor. You just can't get miss.
