Professional and enthusiast currently working at Yelp. As a logician, I believe anything can be made possible, though not all roads lead to tractable solutions.

As an eclectic programmer, I'm not always the best person to answer your question. But, I do my best.

comment What lessons (and mini-lessons) are available in Art Academy: Second Semester?
Indeed it does. I can confirm as much from my own copy, which I caved into buying some time after writing this up.

Thanks for your answer. I eventually caved into the temptation to buy the boxed copy, though I have yet to complete it (shame on me). :)

comment Are you immune to the 5 death rule after you acquire the glow effect to your file stars?
No problem. This advice is corroborated from a few sources I'd read while working through the game, including here: gamespot.com/super-mario-3d-land/forum/… and, now, here: gamefaqs.com/boards/620831-/61148638, which also points out that deaths on levels you'd previously completed don't count.

comment Would a memory foam topper be a sufficient sound and vibration baffle for Dance Dance Revolution?
I had not. Thank you! -- Our solution, meanwhile, was an agreement with the neighbors on one side combined with migrating the dance pad to an area of the house with increased baffling, due to a floor plan designed for a tessellated set of washing machines in both apartments (which gives us increased wall stability and two extra rooms between ourselves and our other neighbors). This seems to have worked for us.

@FallenAngelEyes AFAIK, we have a thin (1/2 inch) carpet spread over hardwood and sound-insulating foam. This is ignoring all of the structural components, including steel rebar and the concrete used for the walls and foundation. Given the remainder of our complex has far poorer insulation than we do, I don't believe we have an even decibel rating being enforced throughout, and our stairs clearly have no insulation whatsoever. I'm going to leave the question unmodified, though, under the assumption that a more effective shock absorption strategy is just as viable in a different setting.
