hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament

[dvaskate]

Here is my best score for round 4 so far.

[dvaskate]

Here is an improvement.
Thanks to Majorly Whoring this beast!
Must of played it around 300 times!
I also used the adrenaline rush to my advantage.
Still a great and fun file! Thanks hi19 and qqwref!
Also this seems more like a high 10, because I am usually not good at
anything 11 or above.
But maybe it is just because this one flows a lot better than avalon.

[typing like wat]

[JSH]

Sorry I missed the second round :<

Dumb miss though ;_;

It's only 160 bpm, that's slower than most FMO JS files, the only FGO worthy parts are really the rolls and the 32nd stream bursts.

It's not the actual chart it's self that's bad it's which division you gave it to.

I have better PA on a ton of FGO's compared to this shit. Go take a look at my level ranks to verify. I like most of your files hi19 but.... **** man give us a break ;_;

This is pretty much what I meant minus the fgo pa. With D4 the FGO charts have to be reasonable to the division. This chart certainly doesn't fit that bill.

Maybe I did jump to to rash a conclusion as to the number difficulty. But for ANYONE who is bad at jumpstream (myself mind you) you can see why I jumped the way I did. And yes that jumpstream is hard. The one last round was hard as well. Even for someone like me with a good deal of speed.

There was no glory in winning the early rounds. They're the easier rounds so to be honest we all should have had the same score. I was just happy to be doing so well it was giving me some good confidence.

Last round killed it.

This round T-Bagged it.

I will say Zak's last minute score posting surprised me.

[Khenra]

MINOR improvement... Damn, this is a tough file. I would argue D2's file is actually easier.

Hey psst, middie!

Improved slightly more. And got it on video. Probably done. Missed 3rdish to last note. Pissed.

[mrpreggers]

So I watch sticklydude's video of Phalanx and think to myself, "This doesn't looks so bad." I play it once and my arms are already dead.. how the **** does anyone have the stamina to do the ending >.>

edit: Kk **** it for now.. arms too tired.

EDIT: I CAN'T ****ING STOP PLAYING.

[qqwref]

Haha, Middie, I found your score. Wow. I'm sure you can get under 300 goods, just work on endurance or something. Sorry that the rounds are slightly harder than you anticipated, but honestly you shouldn't expect to just cruise through and wreck everyone forever. Maybe this is a song you're bad at - so what? If you've got enough skill to expect to do well in your division, you can still win plenty from individual rounds and tournament points, and even cumulative points if there are other hard songs you can do well on. Man up and try your best.

[Jake Ferguson]

The only way for me to improve this score will have tons of boos, a lot more than this run, so I think I'm done this round. I like files that are hard because of bursts and stream, not huge clumps of hands

[Poison-]

I can't break 60 goods anymore. No matter how far I AAA into the song, I still end it with 60 goods. Wtf

Also, no way this file is a 9, it's definitely a VC. Not that it matters

I can change this to a VC. The fact I simply *cannot* AAA it should be a hint (it reminds me of Teh Tricky Techno in that regard)

I just wanted the top of D1 to stop fuccen SDGing the songs for once, mission accomplished.

Your next round's song is definitely easier.
In fact this round is on par with your finals- such is how it goes.

Also Middie stop complaining the whole point is that the files are generally what would be given to a division above you in a traditional tournament. I said that the files would start at the difficulty of a the last rounds of a DF tournament and progress to the level of the Dossar Brutality Tournament's first rounds, and I'm basically sticking to that pretty well.
You can still read the file so it's obviously not too hard.

[Anaru]

must sdp starlight reverie..

had quad til 1500 once. >;[

also, d5 bursts are blehghhghh
i can sdg consistently but its blegh to get below 5 goods atm

Like I said, it's actually pretty close in difficulty to the D1 finals so it's definitely quite the difficulty bump up from Sensorium heh
Glad to see you guys taking it in stride though.

[Anaru]

nice one

Best I've got for now. I need to figure out how to nail those bursts into the hand jacks, that parts extremely hard.

I'll go try d4s file now, hope I don't die >.<

Your scores.... They are fawking amazing....

I cannot jack for shit. Why do files have to be so jacky these days....

[Anaru]

They're not terrible, but they do have some long hidden 8th jacks that I should have broken up better.

That might explain why I tend to do better at the beginning of the handstream until it transitions into...that other style of handstream. I tend to e terrible at JS with long hidden 8th jacks (hence why I have a better score on defection than on nyanyanyanya lmfao)

I'm still (and finally) beating Zak and Middie this round, so that's all that matters at the moment.

Well, because it's my tournament and I'm kind of known for liking my jack files.

What can I say, I find the pattern fun :3
