More feedback as I realized what is causing all my failures:
The point where the animation/point gain locks, and you *must* reverse direction on your mouse. For some reason it seems like *those points* get me the most. (Just lost Phase 1 at level 13 because of it) I don't know if it's a double counting issue, or just running into that scenario while at high Awareness, but I do believe that is where most of my losses are coming from.
*edit, and I'm not a particularly big fan of the Awareness gain when *letting go of the mouse* for Phase 1 Tits. Awareness gain is always tied to point gain outside of undressing. This little bit feels like it doesn't belong.
