9th Official Tournament -- Round 8

[Skeelie]

It's been a good time Sgt.

If you don't pass the peepee water .. We will always remember you as a hero who died submerged, in combat.

[DossarLX ODI]

I keep thinking D7 is going to make a last minute comeback with all the current 1g scores and AlexDest's double booflag turning into AAAs

Then that would be 17 players next round haha

[Staiain]

[smartdude1212]

Hey AJ, got a question, it might've been answered in this thread and I apologise for my lack of attentiveness heh, but I was wondering in the case of a 'tiebreak scenario' where for example, the top 19 as it stands, go through to Round 5, how do we determine who gets Fractured Sunshine? Will it be determined by who finished 9th-16th in Round 5 or do we have to play the D6 file as has been suggested? Or is there another scenario?

There's a bit of a misunderstanding here, haha.

Those of you that are tied for the number of places tied to move on will play a tiebreaking song (which may or may not be D6's next song, depending on availability of files) -- this song will be in play for this division for ONE day. Because the tie starts at 16th place, only one person will survive the tiebreaker. In this case, the tie extends from 16th (cutoff) to 19th, so you four will break the tie with another song, and the winner of the tiebreaker will receive 16th place for that round, therefore moving on. The other three players will be eliminated there.

Oh damn, so this round is a tiebreaker round ... welp! Thanks for informing me, I've been getting conflicting information from lots of people and I wasn't sure whether this was a tiebreaker round or not. Damn! OK, thanks for clearing a lot of stuff up! XP

Funny because now only D1-D3 have ties. D5 people in the peepee water need their 2g now :P

[YoshL]

D5 in danger of the worst tiebreaker lmfao

[_Fluttershy_]

I will try to improve my score, I mean I'm not one to give up, but seriously am not sure if I can improve on 3 clean lol. Well played D5 ... holy crap! I'm gonna keep trying til the end though, don't count me out just yet, but feel free to anyway! XD

[Deidara837]

I bareev in u

[SK8R43]

hehehehe D5 is down to 16 now :P

[Salitz]

I think D5 needs another 2g score

[rCaliberGX]

good lord


no one improve while i'm away pls

[TC_Halogen]

If one person from below the line improves, there will be an 8 way tiebreaker, and only one person will be eliminated in said tiebreaker.

[cedolad]

Damn it D5, you motherfuckers. If I have to improve from 2gs i'ma mad.

[Charu]

Baaaaah, I can't play my file anymore. Like... I just can't. I tried the "stop playing" approach and took a mini-FFR break.

Didn't quite work out, now I feel like I can't play really hard files now after playing for an hour.

Dang it, there goes my chance at Fractured Sunshine unless someone doesn't improve.

Have you tried training through re-conditioning? Play it at a lower rate where it almost seems useless to play that low because you can do it easily (as a D6 player, I have a feeling that this threshold would be 0.8x or so), and then bump it up gradually and make your way back to 1.0. (Alternatively, if you like to brute force, you can play the song repeatedly at 1.1x, and then bring yourself back to 1.0 for the appearance of an easier/slower file.)

i tried slowing it down to 0.7 and still couldn't AAA because the 8th sections are too slow

i got 7 clean at 1.3 also
