That accept rate is very high for both--Tass is going to cut at least half of those out, unless everyone somehow learned to step at the same time. :O

[kommisar[os]]

i feel bad for giving twice as many (-)'s than everyone now lmao

[who_cares973]

most of those -'s you gave probably got resubmitted and were given .+

[dore]

My - is probably your -- and my ? is probably your -. It's comparable.

[kommisar[os]]

probably. though i gave more ?'s since i refused to accept them lmao

dark chancellor meanies reject mi files better send to new friendly judges :flawlessplan:

[dore]

Yeah I'm gonna start rejecting more files that suck even though there's nothing wrong with them. I didn't do that at the start of this batch but it's a good way to streamline judging into a manageable process.

[kommisar[os]]

its about being open to different styles since you're still trying to cater to a less skilled audience at the same time. i found this very hard to do (not so much for patashue)


still i would reject files if there was a lack of fun value not just accept if theres nothing wrong with it but its still a snoozefest to play.

[dore]

yeahm I mean the latter not the former, I generally have more fun with really easy files anyway

[omgitznpv]

if you have the right song it's really not that hard to make a super fun easy file

there's no point in accepting a file that's not fun but there's "nothing wrong with it" (if there was nothing wrong with it, chances are it would be fun too. unless you have a sucky song), because people generally won't play it if it's not fun.

[who_cares973]

almost all xandertrax files oops

[omgitznpv]

bad easy file see: zelda stormy
okay easy file see: nes-style eye of the tiger

i couldn't really think of a good easy file; i'm assuming that anybody that can make a good easy file either doesn't make good easy files or doesn't try (theres probably a good easy file out there but none really come to mind)

[who_cares973]

i liked norfolk gal

[omgitznpv]

norfolk gals would be good if it was pr

[who_cares973]

its ffr, who needs pr

[omgitznpv]

i do

I definitely had many +. that I thought were borderline, and can very well be +? instead. Good files still stood out well.

[Patashu]

what do you envision a good easy file looking like

I mean there's only so much you can do before it's too dense or too hard to follow

is story of the constellations a good easy file ?_?

is yeah yeah beats a good easy file sike you can't even play it yet

[dore]

To me a good easy file is one that anyone can play and figure out what the notes go to. From watching friends go from zero rhythm game experience to passing 6's/7's without mashing, I can vouch for the fact that people notice which files go with the music and which ones don't. Technical factors that matter in a difficult file can be ignored as long as what you have makes sense without regards to technicality.

(ultra meta version) a good easy file follows the music perfectly while transcending technicality

well I guess you could say that's any good file but it's easier to do that when you're working completely within the music for an easier file whereas in a harder file you're generally taking from the music to create the difficulty
