I'm Riven.

and I need a warm welcome :c

Okay, so this is the first official tournament I'm participating in (because I didn't have enough complete games when I signed up for the 7th, poor me).

Division: 4
I don't think I'm going to do bad in D4. If I were in D5 however, that would be a completely different story.

Goals:
Best - Achieve first place in D4. That would be a bit difficult, but I could imagine being more known around this site as a newcomer then a D4 winner in the 8th official. Plus the 3 event / support tokens would be awesome.
Great - Reach the top 3 in D4 (Round 7). At least I'd like to get one support token, and seriously, 3rd place is really good, considering that there's 78 D4 players - the largest division.
Good - Reach the top 8 in D4 (Round 5). At the very least, vROFL would be nice so I could whore points to get veteran status.

Okay, time to get started.

Round 4: Quark (13-1-1-3) [ELIMINATED]

Probably one of the harder songs in this tournament. There are a lot of bursts that make me rack up goods, and some of the cluttered jumpstreams mess me up too. Might not pass this round.

Round 3: Slam the Door (Rogue Remix) (AAA)

EDIT: YAY AAA! :D

Wee, I like the song. I get random goods where the jumpstreams and jacks are but a blackflag? Hell yes! I think I can AAA this with enough patience and practice.

Round 2: Walk on Water (2-0-0-0)

EDIT (2/4/13): Got lucky and snagged 2-0-0-0! I'm out of elimination! Now I can keep going ~

I like the song as well but the chart really kills me. The moderate jumpstreams (with the jumps being on the yellow 16th notes) really get to me as I tend to split a lot, and for some reason I couldn't hit the swing part with 12th / 24th notes on R^2 but I could AAA that part on Velocity, it seems. So I got an SDG 9-0-0-0 on R^2, I decided to try it on Velocity and I ended up with 4 goods - very nice improvement. I think I could get an AAA.

Round 1: Touch Me (2-0-0-0)

I definitely think I can achieve an AAA on this, I just need to focus on those mini 32nd streams, and I'll be fine. Besides the chart, the song is cool, except the first time I played it, I was smiling a little bit.

11th place.

To be honest, I expected myself to get eliminated on the first round.

Round 3 was a hell of a song choice.

Thanks for the tournament AJ, and everyone who competed with me ~
