I like the song on D3, is true that I needed some restart to do my best score (well, I missed in the trill on the middle and the ending and avoid some goods in easy parts) but nothing impossible of improve with some retrys.

Considering that I had not warmed up and played with the nerves that I have always when competing.. I feel very satisfied, and can improve my score in the rest of the week.

I wouldn't even address my opinion on the d3/d4 file difficulty in the first place.

And if you really wanted me to stop arguing with you about it stop replying. Directly addressing me prompts a response, and what perhaps could be seen as more violation of rules. If you haven't noticed, I stopped replying to people who simply said "stop bitching" or "remove yourself" for two reasons. Because one, it gets no where, and two, because I've already said I'm not playing the file anymore, and I haven't since my first post on this thread. If you genuinely have issues with my posts, there's a report button. Report my post and have it taken down instead of trying to take matters into your own hands. If you want to address me about the issue off the forums, there is a private message board where you can. Thank you.
You're elaborations in order to justify the white noise that's beginning to saturate this thread could leave anyone to think you're oblivious to the reality that of the many attending, no one else seems to have the many issues with compliance you do...

Wow I'm happy I played the other files because Insignia is hella fun. Follow You had a more difficult ending than I was expecting, but Red Sphere Blue Sphere is way way more difficult and I feel like if you're getting similar scores on the two songs it's a consistency issue.
(And in my experience, consistency is the first thing to go after going on hiatus)

Insignia is sooo fun though

Hi it's blanky! (or ___________) coming out of the dead (but not really because I've been sorta active on ffr/twitch).

Loved all of the songs, which is something you don't hear from me very often. Maybe it's just gameboy(Xx42069xX) and his awesome layering??

D1: Nice downtempo beat to it, great song, good beginner file (song certainly appeals to them!)
D2: Another great dubstep song, not much to say
D3: Loved hearing the arpeggios, some tricky bursts here and there, lots of diversity
D4: Sonic sound effects were pretty awesome. Trills were troll (hi capoeira). Good opener.
D5: t+pazolite never failing to impress and this was no exception. Jacks made this file quite memorable, particularly the jumpjacks with one-handed transitions
D6: Opening trills were troll. Bursts were good. Middle jumpstream was a great buildup. All the layering made perfect sense and made me feel like I was performing this on a live piano.
D7: After not playing competitively for over a year this is 3hardpain5me but the difficulty almost guarantees no AAA-or-die situation (which is always a good sign for D7!).

It's like being an art major with a GPA of 2.0 getting thrown into a Physics 2 class for honors students. Shit's not going to go well. Am I honored to be there? No. I'm going to say I want to be put in an area where I can actually function.
You're doing better in D3 than I am in D2, and my scores that got me placed here are YEARS older than yours. Just play or don't.

Woah, I'm horrid at this game. The D2 song is hard to me (granted I haven't actually played much in years), but still. Oh well, going to have to see if my friend has an external keyboard because apparently my laptop doesn't want to hit hands properly O_O

I wish this was three years ago when my keyboard wasn't restricted to 1 usable setup and the game actually ran well. Actually debating ordering a new keyboard if I can get fiffer to run smooth somehow

the D7 file is really fun though barring that shit above^

You really are nuts if you think the stream in Follow You is anything like {Rose} or {Frozen}

I honestly can't believe no one else said anything about the bolded part here. I can blacklist your account and ban you right now over that regardless of how long ago it was. Lucky for you I find it hilarious that you shot yourself in the foot by cheating and ending up in a higher division for it. You literally have no one to blame but yourself for that and probably should just leave with your head down. Though, I should probably wipe your skill tokens, since they were probably obtained by your better friend.

It's been five years. Five years. I played a lot three years ago, and the skill didn't come back then. So how am I going to be held to that standard? That, in a nutshell, is why I'm annoyed. In short, I feel like even if I wait a year, I'll just get shot down again. Either because I won't improve, or if I do, I'll be put in D4. It's what happened When I first got placed in d2 well before even the 8th tourny.
You can get the skill back if you're willing to work for it. You've already proven you aren't by quitting on even trying the file. Though then again you did just say your best scores were obtained by a friend, so yeah I guess you're right. Can't gain skill back you never had but you sure could get to that skill if you'd spend half as much time playing as you're spending whining in this thread.

Secondly, I asked to be removed anyway, and it was ignored. In fact, if you've read, I've asked multiple times to be bumped up to d4, simply because I enjoy the file more, and feel that I'd have a better shot there than d3 due to the file type. I'd rather not have the d3 badge on my profile because I know I'm not ready for it. Bump me up, remove me, I honestly don't care since I know that I've no chance at even top 16. I'm already not going to play the file anymore anyway.
"I'm aware of the rules and have played in 3 of the 11 tournaments, but I'm going to break them anyway" <--- that's you. On the bolded part you were not ignored, at the time of this message from you it was 5am my time and the others were at 4am. I'm sorry that I am incapable of staying up 24/7 to attend to your tournament needs.

Oh wait

You've already effectively removed yourself from the tournament by not playing your division file. Looks like I don't need to do anything anyway.

I'm actually not completely decided on that yet, will confer with other GMs and diff consultants and see what everyone thinks is best.

We definitely were not that high in the 50's on it, ooops XD

Can you explain how being bad at the D3 file and better (still not that good) at the D4 file merits a bump to D4? As a D4 player, ideally, you should be able to AAA (or at least low SDG) D1, D2, and D3 in round 1. The fact that you're not even remotely close to the D3 AAA suggests that you don't belong in D4. In fact, it shows that you have a gap in your skillset that needs to be worked on, as bmah said.

Personally, I don't think I'll see round 2 of d3 if everyone manages to play, so honestly, it wouldn't matter if I'm in d7. :P
Did I just witness first-hand a D3 player complaining about physical capability???

Loving D2's song, Insignia. Such a fun file to play! A bit rusty on my jumpstream, but D4's file isn't too bad either.
