Keyboardsmash Phase I: Legacy Submissions Open

[Rebirth0]

I didn't mean someone had to come out and reveal themselves before any judgments were made, I just need to know who they are eventually so proper credit can be given.

Also with Magic, I think I'm fine with having two separate files for the same song

[Ghakimx]

Where's Leonid when you need him to whip his countrymen into place? #totallynotracist

@James: your notes aren't detailed enough for me to make enough tweaks for a better file, lol.

[Buta-san]

Idk wut happend with the sync but fixed .
Not sure wuts going on with the 8th note issue its syncd on my ddream.

I was thinking about removing all the easy charts but starz got beef with the current oni and at this point idk wut to do exactly. Since the Heavy is closer to my old oni I could keep that in the file.
thnx for the review on the easy ones james

Sent a version with rGx mods, not much other changes, I realized how of a mirrored copy+paste it seemed like so tweaked it a bit.
U need sm5 especially for the edit tht got lifts.

[Rebirth0]

I have the old version if you want it.

[stargroup100]

Ok I just played porky's Hard chart in Magic. I somehow forgot he has a second difficulty.

The hard chart is waaay better than the challenge chart. The hard chart is much more like the the challenge chart in the old cut. If I were to pick the best two versions of this song it would be the new cut hard chart and the old cut challenge. This hard chart for the new cut has all of the things that I'm looking for, and unlike the hard chart from the old cut, doesn't feel lazy.

I mean in retrospect none of these Magic charts are bad by any means. I just happen to have strong opinions because I love the song/charts so much. Submitted individually, I probably would've accepted all of them.

[DefTeaMachine]

Oh shit this is a thing.

I absolutely have to shit something out for this lol

yall arent gaonna insta reject a 6+ minute breakcore file right?

[Ghakimx]

Plz no marathon breakcore

You know that I'll accept that lmao. Twirl's one hell of a file to play with either cmod or xmod huehue (though xmod gives better experience of file~)

now with mines

[James May]

Time to judge \o/

City (The Earth Light) [10Dollar]
*holy shit that was long…Also, my 2 cents but you could cut the last 20 some seconds since the ending is albeit repetitive and rubbish lmao*
Oni – Accept
Like I mentioned, holy shit that was long but you seem to have a charm to making the file fun despite the length. Now, there are a few errors that I looked at and noticed on my playthrough of the file. But, I have to give it to you for making this file actually fun to play despite the length of the song.
1.819 and other instances involving this in the jumpstream parts: Personally all 16th jumps that you have that follows the vocal scrap them. It makes the chart flow better in this sense since the prominent beat that the jumps (the 4th jumps in this case) are going to the kicks. Just my 2 cents.
5.966: Now for this, a mini-freeze can suffice here on the [34] as that’s where the vocals are layered on primarily.
11.613: Same as 5.966, but this time the freezes should be on [24].
17.260, repeat on other instances in the jumpstream parts: Exact same thing as I said on 5.966, layering 2 of the 3 notes that are on the hands as mini-freezes to follow the vocals
22.554 to 22.907: This is a jack, [2] column.
22.554: Remove jump, shift the tapnote on [3] to [2]
22.731: Remove jump, keep the tapnote that’s on [2]
67.731 to 68.437: Make this into a 4321 roll for flow.
79.025 to 79.378: Jack on the [3] column
84.672 to 85.025: Jack on the [4] column
90.319 to 90.672: Jack on the [4] column so that it transitions properly to the roll that starts on 90.672
91.025: Jump, a [14] jump in particular.
94.201 to 107.613: Make all the 4ths into jumps for consistency. If you’re keeping some of them as singles then have all the notes be singles.
122.966: Jump here. [34]
134.260: Jump here. [12]
146.084. Jump here. [12]
194.790 to 195.496: Remove the 1-handed trill and make it into a roll, remove the [14] jump that’s on 194.966 and make that into a single note.
228.848 & 229.025: Jumps. [12] on both.
249.143: [34] jump here.
261.848: Cut the freeze length to about 1/4th of its original length. Mainly for flow.

Magic [Part 1] (Porkypink ft. caliber sm5 mods)
Heavy – Accept
File’s good to go.
Oni – Accept
Good to go as a harder chart, nothing wrong with it on my end and it plays well on previous sm version despite it having sm5 mods.

Story 2 (Rog)
Oni – Accept
Heh…people are going to hate the mines on the ending. But overall, the file’s fun and clean with nothing too glaring to look at. Also, lmfao that song.
Heavy – Accept
Good to go as an easier chart and for those who don’t want to play dodgeball.

THE CEILING COULD NEVER HOLD US (MrTea)
*Offset is off by 0.046 seconds, fix it please*
Heavy – Accept
This file is worth 99 cents.
I kid, I also had fun with this file, while it was longer than 10Dollar’s file, the file was well put together to keep me engaged throughout and not quitout (like I would usually in 5+ mins songs…) Anyhow, megusta…

Twirl (MrTea)
Heavy – Accept
27.264: Remove the mine and place it somewhere else, with the speed of the freeze its impossible to dodge lmao
Other than that, you already know what I think of this file heh.

pce.

[10Dollar Presents]

But I wanted to edit the music. Sorry ambiguous.

[stargroup100]

omfg I just found out magic has medium/easy charts

Magic (medium) - Overall really fun and solid. Only major complaint is that I don't necessarily think the 24ths should be avoided. I don't think they'll be that bad in small bursts, and should be taken advantage of once in a while. Judging the chart as is though, I wouldn't avoid acceptance because of it though. Accepted

Magic (easy) - K this is good.

I like how each difficulty chart you've got something different going on. More and more I'm starting to feel like you've been itching to do these simpler charts for a while and by the time you got around to the challenge chart you were already a bit tired/burned out. lol


EDIT: In all honesty though despite my criticisms each of these charts has redeeming qualities that make them stand out. I really don't mind putting all of them in the pack LOL (ps do any of you mind if I throw a version of this into my complextro pack?)

silly bufang hehe

[Rebirth0]

Sometime I need to start talking to the old dark chancellors to see if they have anything to contribute. Sometime...

[lurker]

atropos- this file is weird as hell. the holds force a lot of strange note hitting (especially the 24ths in m. 60), the stream from m. 25 onwards has a few gaps which don't seem to go to anything, and there are a couple of minijacks which seem like they only happened out of laziness. really inconsistent and unenjoyable
city (the earth light)- this is way too freaking long and uninteresting
dream express- oh hey this totally seems like a shoutout to those benny1 files in odipack/ppp2. i'm down with it, but i'm not entirely sure how the style of stepping holds up
IX- ok, so this is really freaking hard. this file going in depends first and foremost on whether or not we want files with inflated difficulty going into this pack. from one of your posts it seems like you're working on a revision anyway so i don't feel too bad voting pending for this
story 2- oh shit you went and stepped clipping. the buildup kinda stumbles before the 24th stream but this mostly has the energy of the song down
the divine comedy reverse- this is pretty tight. i want to whine that there should be some hands used on those freezes in mm. 18-29 but i get what you're doing there regardless. also a lot of the file suffers from ddream syndrome but that's more of a post-production fix

i've just done basic playthroughs for a few files so i'm not entirely solid on voting for these yet:
amatias/catastophie- gonna lump these together because i don't think the revisions do that much. amatias still has some problems with freeze lengths while the problems i had with catastophie didn't seem to be addressed at all
magic (both of em)- porkypink's is a lot cooler now (the new cut helped) but i think rcaliber's xmods get a bit too extreme at times. gd's is pretty cool

[James May]

Yeah...I actually took the base bpm for my file and basically changed the bpm with the flow and intensity of the song hehe. Anyhow, I may fix the freeze section a bit. Any complaint on the 32nd rolls on that same segment? I'm iffy on those two rolls...
