Daawwwww, it was so good though. xD But its understandable!

[alloyus]

Is the no voiceover because of the work involved? I actually really liked that a lot.

[TC_Halogen]

There were overall mixed opinions about the voice-overs and I'm technically a little late with the video since I like to do it 24 hours in advance.

[smartdude1212]

If I had to choose between voice-overs and AJ wearing Christmas-related things though...

Nope, too difficult. I can't make that decision.

HA yes

in before D6 is harder than D7

(and really, I don't care if it is because I'd much rather give D6 a run with more technical charts since they would be wasted in D7 anyway -- D7 is like an incinerator; whatever you throw into it right now just burns and eventually disintegrates)

D7 looked way worse to me!

[TC_Halogen]

it's a situation where Love Hurts is objectively harder, but Dishevel rams a hammer up your ass with ridiculous spikes

nintendon't looks like it has a few unnecessary hands. d5 song looks ballin.

glad to see ilike's files are getting in

yeah consistent jumpstream with no slowdowns and technical rhythms? sounds hard to me

[smartdude1212]

D5 looks really fucking fun.
D6 looks like Chik Habit ~lite~.
D7 really does seem easier than D6. I agree with AJ though: most of D7 will keep dominating these rounds to begin with, so it'll be fun to see a mass exodus in a single round.

Arguably the first few rounds should be the same for D6 and D7 since D7 is mainly going to AAA it anyways, but that's another discussion altogether. Those files used for D7 could be used later in the tournament for other divisions (more files are available for use)

I have nothing against D6 and D7 having different songs, but I just feel like the first few rounds don't make much of a difference

[samurai7694]

everyone has different strengths and weaknesses

[SK8R43]

MFW the D5 song looks arguably harder than the D6 AND D7 songs :O
D3 looks fun as hell though, look forward to that XD

Not a chance.

[One Winged Angel]

Love Hurts is rated a point higher than Dishevel due to having a somewhat dickish part in the beginning, but otherwise they're of somewhat comparable difficulty. Yes, if you're not that good at technical files, you'll find Love Hurts easier.

D7 will overflow with AAAs regardless of what they're given this round, so it honestly makes more sense to give D6 the file they'd struggle on more. Technical crap at this level seems to produce less AAAs than files of comparable difficulty that focus on pure speed.

tl;dr - deal with it

yeah, I completely agree -- that's why (SPOILER ALERT) next round for D7 is going to actually be... somewhat challenging, as it is at -least- three points higher (arguably more, we're still working on that. Second half of the tournament will get rough for the higher divisions.
