i kind of want to step a mid-diff t11 file, like mid 50s, low 60s. just to let the up-and-comers know this is what they're working towards - that is all there is at the end...300bpm fart+buzz noises

(not completely serious about that last part, obviously. just can't find a song i really like to do it with

Either Apple sucks or I'm just trash
idk my MacBook Air keyboard is pretty great

You should step VC-tier t11 files, it's actually a lot of fun to do.
The usual layering is basically the same as the FSO files too, except you use single arrows instead of jumps for loud snares/kicks and use just a single jump or color theory or something for buzzes instead of actually stepping them out with rolls. Tends to make really fun files, depending on the song you choose and how aggressive you are about stepping buzzes as rolls vs. acknowledging them with something easier you can make any difficulty you want up to like low FGO.

no doubt...i think files like that will quite resemble chaotic evil older bros of the vsnares files that are already in-game, i.e really fun.

speaking of which - it's quite funny how ffr as a community just gave up on vsnares sometime in 2012. if not for mi40, we'd only have 3 files by him in 5 years, one of which was the stepcon winner. especially considering how vsnares makes such step-ready stuff, it's like everyone just got bored of him at once

I tried getting permission for loffciamcore a while back but no response

might be better to go via the label at splittercore records (http://www.skrd.npx.pl/news.php) so we get pretty much everyone on that label

but yeah that file was sweet

EDIT: I might actually try contacting the label later again

Thought id give an update on my left hand situation

Went and spoke to a doctor today, turns out the problem is actually a compressed nerve that runs from my shoulder down to my hand, not RSI as i first thought

Good news is that it should heal fairly quickly (it already has to a degree)
If it doesn't then i gotta go get physiotherapy for it

Plateauing doesn't really exist, if you aren't improving it means you haven't put in the effort needed to improve, or your effort has been misapplied. It's more of a problem at really high levels, but never totally concrete.

also the 5th official (sei-triplex either cheated or super-sandbagged, thinking the former really, and marthalolz's account was being used by summerschool for the last round)
