Calibration in Taiko: the Drum Master

Calibration in rhythm games is difficult because it is very complicated. There are a lot of different parts involved when playing a rhythm game:

Digital audio cues (the music, the hitsounds) and how your brain processes them
Analog audio cues (the physical sound of tapping the controller/keyboard/drum, other audio distractions in the room) and how your brain processes them
Visual cues (the moving notes, the timing judgment words) and how your brain processes them
Your own personal skills and abilities (sense of rhythm, physical ability to press keys/buttons (i.e. muscle mass, energy), muscle memory for specific songs and patterns, etc.)
Audio latency (the time it takes between a computer generating a digital sound, your speakers/headphones generating physical vibrations in the air, and those vibrations reaching your ear)
Visual latency (the time it takes between a computer generating an image, your monitor generating light, and that light reaching your ey

Tag Force 5

Tag Force 5 is a PSP game that is useful as an Edison simulator. It has the perfect combination of features, and fixes issues that are present in the Nintendo DS and 3DS games (Reverse of Arcadia, Zexel: World Duel Carnival, etc.)

April 2010 banlist is set by default
All banned/limited cards are implemented
All TCG exclusives are present (e.g. Super-Nimble Mega Hamster)
High resolution, widescreen layout is more suitable for modern phones than the DS split-screen layout

counting opening 6-card hands that result in at least one lonefire blossom (as an example)

this is just to show that the 37-card approximation is close enough to the 40-card probabilities that it can be used in other calculations (e.g. my hand simulator: https://github.com/vivaria/hand-simulator)

obviously the actual lonefire % is much more complicated due to multiple different combos, but that's covered in the hand simulator.

# 40-card deck method w/redraws
- number of opening hands (40 choose 6):                               3,838,380
- number of 6-card hands with 1 or 2 lonefire (regardless of upstart): 1,077,699

(NB: Reasoning and Reckless Greed aren't considered, since I first coded vivaria/hand-simulator prior to those cards catching on.)

Note 1: Prices are listed in the currencies provided by the respective websites (e.g. JPY/USD), and the import process is specific to my experiences as someone living in Canada. May be different for USA (tariffs) or EU.

Note 2: If you order over a certain amount, you will likely be subject to import taxes/duties depending on your jurisdiction. For small orders, you should be fine. Check your local legislation to avoid getting hit with any surprise costs.

	Fix offset values due to bug in older versions of TakoTako (<=3.2.0)

	Bug description:

	- TJA songs have an "OFFSET:" value.
	- When converting TJAs to fumen, "OFFSET" is automatically included in
	the data of the fumen files themselves.
	- However, TakoTako also added the "OFFSET" value to "fumenOffsetPos"
