FireDeath

I'm re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-replaying FFIX and I still can't do the 1000 jumps in the Jump Rope mini-game.
I reach 200 now, but my record is something about 700. iAre there any tips for the mini-game?
 
=O You're crazy! Lol I can't really say much but "Just jump!" I didn't bother with the jump rope in the beginning of the game. I just wanted to get on with it and plaaay!

The game, I mean. Not the jump rope. :)

But if you really wanna do that, then shoot! ^_^' Good luck.
 
it gets random later and yeah it is hard
i only got 100 and something :(
 
1000!!!????? Wow, I thought all you needed was 100. Thanks for telling me FireDeath, now I know just ignore the Jump Rope game completely the next time I play it. I remember I coudn't even do 100, let alone 1000.

More power to you man, and good luck.
 
It ramdomly changes its pattern after 20 jump's and you only get a keyitem for 1000 jumps but i never bothered with that good luck tho!:P
 
So wait, do you get anything spectacular for jumping 100 times or anything? I'm guessing some sort of Triple Traid card, but I am not certain at all.
 
At the:
10 or 20 (don't remember right now) Jumps-you receive 10 Gil
50 Jumps - Cactuar Card
100 Jumps - Genji Card
200 jumps- Alexandria Castle Card
300 jumps-Tiger Racket Card
1000 jumps- King of the Jump Rope, Key Item
 
Keep a Rythom.
I made myself a beat for this little game
 
there's a pattern... but even though i know how to do it.. i just cant win... i think i only reach somewhere in 500+,,, memorize the pattern,, from where it get fast,, then it alternates suddenly ggesssshh.... congrats to who ever have completed this sidequest:D in reality i only knew one person. gudluck to those who'd still try to beat it:D
 
Wow.....My high score is like 6 :lol:

does the key item even DO anything or is it only there for show? or is the "sense of acheivement" the greatest reward :lol:
 
I think the highest I have ever gotten was like, 3.

Oh wait, I got 4 once.

Do like this:
Turn all lights out; lower brightness, contrast, etc, so that your eyes don't hurt; and focus on the baloon with the"!".
That's how I do it.
 
sounds cool maybe ill try that^

well the tiger racket is worth it if you get it early on (thats if you can)
and a few of the other items are cool like cacteur card ^_^
 
I managed to do it and get the Queen of Ropes title (or whatever it was called). There's indeed a certain pattern you need to follow. It's basically listening to when Vivi jumps and then time it.
 
I've never bothered with the juump rope, and now i know what the rewards are, i'll definitely never bother with it
 
Hmmm... I can't remember where you do the jump rope mini-game. I would think it's in Alexandria but I'm in the 3rd disc now when it's destroyed so is it too late for the jump rope mini-game?
 
You can do it on the 3rd disk too. It's at the tower you climbed with Vivi ad puck at the beginning of the game. The one with the bell; only this time you can do it as either Vivi or Eiko. I managed to get the King of Skipping item; I did 1200 + jumps.

The pattern is from 1-50 it's standard rythmetic patterns; simple beat presses.
After 50 it gets a bit faster.
When it gets to 100 the rythem gets much faster.
From 200-300 (I think to 300) the rythem changes drastically. You have to do as follows: 'tap' 'tap' --pause-- 'tap' 'tap' --pause- 'tap' 'tap'. It means that you have the taps in quick successions and then you pause for a mini-second and then do the quick taps again.
When you get to 300 it's just a very fast tap rythem all the way to 1000.

The hardest part is the converting from the 100 tapping rythem to the tap tap rythem from 200-300.
