So I thought I might keep a log of my thoughts on the files I've made, as is the trendy thing to do these days. Next I'll wear a hoodie or something.

WHAT LIES BEYOND THE MOUNTAINS: First file ingame. File wise it's not spectacular or anything - the song is amazing, though, which is the main reason I stepped it. I did what I could with it. Jumpstream's cool, I like the runningmen in them.

ATOP THE WORLD: The concept behind this file was basically "like Fast Asleep, but for newbies." Almost every other file in this range is basically straightforward 4th/8th/16th themed stuff, so I felt it couldn't hurt to throw in a burst-heavy doozy. Song's neat, colour stream at the end is mean, but justified imo.

CHALLENGE THE FINAL MISSION!: I had a lot of fun stepping this. Initially the rolls were just 12ths, which were hella boring actually. This file is so full of really trolly stuff so I'm surprised at the warm reception it got, but I'll take it.

TIME (SOULAR ORDER REMIX): The point of this chart is to highlight the contrast between 12ths/24ths and 16ths in terms of what they mean for the music, and for the player. Hopefully some newer player trying out this file will be able to feel the difference if they didn't already know it.

CLOCKTOWN: All sorts of stuff in this file, anchors, jumpstream, grace bursts, etc. I like the variety of skills it tests newer players on. It might be interesting on rates, idk. Some of the graces are really bs (sun)

Well, now that that's over and done with...

9th place. I must say I was really hoping to get top 8 - vrofl and all that would have been nice. But still, when compared to the actual top 8, I can't compete with them right now. Some of their scores are scarily good - a couple have insane fgos, some have like 2g on multiple FMOs, and so on. I can't fight that. So, all things considered, 9th place is pretty good. I'm proud of that :D

When mindblocks on Round 4's Iced Innocence set in within 10 plays, I thought I was gone that round. Surprisingly I stayed on, but wasn't so lucky at the end of Round 5. That was some real drama right there at the end, but I sort of knew it would happen. Once I saw 25thhour was playing, I was all "welp..."

There were some things this tourney that could have been better of course - placements, to a certain degree, and front page posts, stuff like that. But overall it was still a really fun tournament, and I must say I enjoyed each and every single one of the files my division got. So, to the stepfile artists if you're reading this, thanks for the great run of
