7b_wizard - Hi, would you agree that 6/9 is already above random, not obvious or easy to get, then 7/9 a first achievement that needs somewhat accurate launches (e.g. well-timed or well-spaced or well-aligned) and something like "a (recognizable) pattern up" ?
James Hennigan - Yes I agree. I think anything less than 6/9 is worthless. 7/9 is a decent attempt (as you said, it requires somewhat accurate throws). 8/9 is very good. That's as far as I've gotten so far!
James Hennigan - I should also add that I don't pay attention to the order in which I catch them i.e. I don't focus on whether it was the first 6 or the last 6 or something in between.
James Hennigan - The method I'm using for 9 balls is to hold 8 in my hands and kick up the last one. I often miss the kick-up, and when this happens I don't count the attempt.
7b_wizard - I see. Okay.     ( and yes, I count ``gathers´´ too)
