Otherwise the transfer is appreciated.

It should be fine. If I notice you're storming through songs then I'll just bump you back up.

At this point, with a prize pool of over a million credits, I think it would be a good idea to switch to a "cascading exponentially" model.

Cascading exponentially
The way cascading exponentially works is that first place gets 1 share, 2nd place gets 1/2 share, 3rd placers get 1/4 share, 4th placers get 1/8 shares, and so on.
If a player has not won at least one round, such as by losing after a first round bye, the player receives no shares.

This way, first place doesn't get paid an insane amount and 9th place or worse still gets paid out a reasonable participation credit based on progress.

Yeah I'll update that. When I first made the tournament I only had about 80000 credits to put up, so I'll edit that.

D1 getting an AAA on their song would actually move them up a division according to this.

According to that thing I only have 2 scores that would suggest D6 and that was a year ago, getting minimum teens on high 70s nowadays
Much better at getting stuff like 20-40g on harder songs (AA vs. AAA) /rant

Rip me but yeah D1 starting point is usually like what 15ish

Haha, it's not unusual for some people to AAA the first song in a tourney.

yeaaaaa pretty much was guaranteed a loss with this round lol

**rushyrulz** · 05-23-2016, 11:49 PM

Let me just mention how important song selection is in a tournament where PA differentials are being used to compare interdivisional players.

You don't want to have situation where Yoshi's Cookie is going up against T&J or something.

Deadlyx39 · 05-23-2016, 11:59 PM

D7 Song Changed to Punkture (87)

I don't know very much about general skill levels for D7, so it seemed fine at the time. I guess not, so this should be fine

Cya d7 players

**Hakulyte** · 05-24-2016, 12:55 AM

So, if I'm getting this tournament right.

D7 player gets a blackflag on Punkture
D2 player AAA Big Dog

D7 player goes to loser bracket and D2 player continue?

**Poison-** · 05-24-2016, 01:05 AM

**Deidara837** · 05-24-2016, 01:37 AM

I haven't played it yet but I'm for some reason much better at jacking than other things
Maybe I can get it into top scores when I'm feeling faster

Unless it's meme song rage bait

Edit: And it's stepped by Dossar so that is 90% likely
Edit2: Watched a replay, confirmed meme song rage bait
