Keyboardsmash Phase I: Legacy Submissions Open

do you have any reviews that you can put up? have you worked on anything yourself?

like, you're already showing problems and you haven't gotten off the ground yet.

It's like you haven't checked the first post at all.

I've listed the judges, I've talked to them privately already. You wouldn't know this because private things are private and the community doesn't see private things.

I've told the judges not to overwork themselves and review files in 5 - 7 submission increments, which if you would look at the first post once again, we have 4 submissions. No reviews are necessary yet based on this. No youtube previews are necessary because no reviews have been posted and nothing has been submitted. Even once we do have accepted files, I'm not sure I'm going to post previews

And a third time, look at the first post. I have made a file already and submitted it and have said in a previous post that I'm working on a few more

So all of these problems you think I have, are wrong, and you just have not read up on anything at all. You just expect me to have not done anything. It shows how much you actually pay attention

[lurker]

you guys won't have to worry about this "subjectivity" bullshit once choof and i write a program that autogens jumpstream files

Sent a file. I'm ignoring all meanings and other symbolic jargon that supposedly is this pack. To me it's just a pack.

Hope to see some results!

ROFLMAO

dude everyone here knows I suck your dick enough but if you really want I can attach credit to you in every article you did more work than me in (jack theory, connotation, etc.). want me to?

and that create dump file image oh god I couldn't stop laughing

[Rebirth0]

Yeah everyone knew stargroup sucked kil's dick a thousand times by now, he's one of the biggest simfile artist tryhards I've ever seen in terms of theories and trying to break down stepping styles but he's coo

To his credit, I'm not sure there has been anyone who had made as much progress as he did in such few simfiles.

Yes we do have 5 submissions now, so I do suggest a round of reviews for the judges.

[stargroup100]

to be honest while everyone tells me im like the biggest tryhard ever honestly I feel like my analysis on the entire medium, despite how much I've already done, isn't even remotely deep enough, at least compared to other similar mediums and the work already done in those. I think I've already covered all of the general topics pretty well and it's "complete" in that sense, but I haven't explored it nearly as deep as I'd like to

[stargroup100]

i want to teach people how to make charts so beautiful they make me cry

like lmbo

Each persons reviews will be displayed in the first post since I didn't reserve anything in post #2. Ctrl+F your shit so you can find why we hate your file


Kaerimichi:
one of my simfiles so its auto accepted jk I don't judge my own shit

Funny Shuffle:
I'm impressed at your progress in making simfiles over the years. Your stepmania files used to be so bland for some reason, while your FFR files shined. But also keep in mind I've been out of the loop for 4 years and don't have anything to go off of since Xoon 5 so I'm just retarded

While the song isn't anything special, and yes I will place some importance on song choice, the steps fit it nearly perfectly. There is some difficulty to the file and I think it would be worth playing.

There is an inconsistency at measure 26, where you have some 24ths, there is a pink note at the end of beat 1 that should have a jump/double, based on the way you step the same sounds around this part, and the same thing at measure 28 beat 3. I don't hear any sound differences in these spots so the steps should match what you have in the area. This is such a minor issue (but one that will have to be fixed), there is no need to resubmit this. Simply tell me which replacement notes you would like to put in these spots and I'll do it for you. The judges won't really see a change until I give them the first "beta release pack" unless they also want to change this themselves. Accepted

Battle of BRS:
With a song with simple structure like this, it needs to be layered as best as you possibly can to keep the attention of someone who is playing it. I found myself to not enjoy the file because it wasn't difficult enough to keep me interested. Notes need to match the intensity of the song when the song is most intense, and aside from some jumps every few notes this chart doesn't capture that.

Catastophie:
There is a bit of the same issue here with layering the intensity of the song correctly, but this one has much more potential than your other submission. With a great sounding song, you can't afford to go easy on the chart. From what it looks like, you do a great job at parts starting at m17 to m25, and where the song is the same at m49 to m64. If you can find away to match that accuracy of layering and chart quality, then we have an accepted file.

note: if you try again or a third time and it isn't quite good enough but its much closer to being perfect, I will help you and fix some of these issues myself.

Rydeen:
hi blurk

I don't know what to think of this file. Technically there is nothing really wrong with it at all, the song is just a piece of shit so nobody will want to play this in my opinion. Go step some good music like you used to ;_;
MAYBE but I don't think I'd want to use it

[Rebirth0]

Love how I'm actually doing shit and this isn't going anywhere

[bmah]

It seems that some people don't take all of the judges listed seriously. Might I suggest you have all of them at least review something to gauge their degree of credibility. I'm very thankful for your current reviews, but let's see some other judges. I personally would think that'd be the next step.

[Rebirth0]

If this doesn't work not one shred of blame goes to me. There were only 10 pages of nonstop bitching to drive people away

[bmah]

You might also want to wait and see what happens after the release of Untitled Stepmania Pack. It could very well be that everyone's attention is focused there at the moment.

[rCaliberGX]

bad timing when there's 2 other packs running atm that cover most of the types of files people actually play in 2014

This, pretty much. The lack of creativity in pack creations lately ~

[kommisar]

i'll get to judging in a bit

[Izzy]

There are always several packs going on at any point.

[choof]

usp is almost finished, yolomania is almost finished

if pancaks doesn't start yolomania4 like 30 seconds after releasing yolomania3 then people might submit
