Re: Official Tournament Round 1 Files
Question: When will the songs be given difficulty ratings? After the round is over?
D3 feels like ~55 to me

Re: Official Tournament Round 1 Files
i would agree with this, 54-55 (just got around to playing it). it is easier than d4, definitely. the patterns in the d4 song are just WEIRD. plus the trills are definitely worse in the d4 song, imo.

Mainly because I like token collecting. If you notice, that's where all of my highest scores are. It's why I came to the sight. AAAing and FCing only gives pixels, so the achievement doesn't feel nearly as satisfying. 1 AAA? Cool, 1500 more to go and you've got 'em all! If I already had the tournament based tokens I wouldn't have entered. I don't have the time to get 1 billion score in a day, so there's no other way to get VBeta ROFL, and Fractured Sunshine is tournament exclusive, so that makes me feel like I've got no choice. And there's a problem with Henry Ford's quote. It works one way, and almost always. But that doesn't mean that the other direction is true. I don't give a damn how hard I believe, I'm not AAAing Death Piano in a week's time. (Extreme case, I know). However, I can certainly believe I'm not, and be right 99% of the time. And regardless, if your statement is true, then I should be let into d4, because I feel I could do better in the d4 file than the d3 file, and hey my top scores show that I have better score on the d4 file. I've accepted that I'm not getting either token at this point, so it doesn't matter. If it was for my fun purely, I'd say put me in d5. That's my favorite file out of the set, even if I'm bad at it. In short, even if I had a shot at top 16, I'd be happy. I'd be fine and dandy. I played another d3 player in multiplayer, and he got 80 goods up on me in certain songs. Hell, he beat me on even my best song score that I've had recently, and that's in my top 20. In short, I feel like sort of stiff handed by placements. In long, my top twenty has a range 20 difficulty, and the top of the peak is reasonably high, so I perfectly understand it. It's why I asked to be removed from the tournament in the main thread. It didn't happen, so naturally I tried anyway. If the d4 file didn't feel easier than the d3 file, I wouldn't even say anything about it because I acknowledge that at both tiers, I am not getting close to top 16. Honestly, I wish I could wipe some of those top scores that are 5 years+, but I know a few of them are genuinely mine. (Lawn wake IV was a favorite). There are obvious differences in my scores compared to people who "fit" in d3. But of course I could be smurfing, so how would you know? I get the system, but to be honest, when it hurts, it really, really fuckin' hurts. |

Re: Official Tournament Round 1 Files
for reference xeno, i played the d3 file. i near SDG'd it. if we're going by scores people have gotten (and by your logic, that's what we're doing) then the d3 song is easier.
you need to find some other way to enjoy this tournament, or since you wanted to be removed anyway, not play at all. NO ONE is forcing you to play. |

Re: Official Tournament Round 1 Files
Out of curiosity, how many times have you actually tried your D3 file?

Re: Official Tournament Round 1 Files
Ah, so you play to collect tokens? Well I figure that if you feel that you gave it your all so far, you could do so on a less sour note. I understand that improvement doesn't come right away and doesn't come on a consistent rate either. Personally I would not focus on something as superficial as tokens as a means to happiness in this game, but that's just me.
Well in past tournaments, I recall people being allowed to move up a division voluntarily (except for D6 --> D7). That may be possible again this tournament, but I don't call the shots. Ask around, but I'm not sure if this would benefit you in regards to your current skill level. All in all, I wouldn't compare yourself to other players. FFR and Stepmania are largely games of self-improvement. My best advice for you is to just have fun trying, and I'll leave it to you to either accept or reject that suggestion.

Re: Official Tournament Round 1 Files
Mind blocking? Try again tomorrow. I mean, shit... The rounds do last a week. There is plenty of time for improvement.

you just have a bad attitude towards all of this, and i get where you're coming from because i have a slight sense of that feeling as well, but rather than getting hung up on it, i'm glad i'm even considered good enough to be IN d4. |

Re: Official Tournament Round 1 Files
There is a really easy solution here... Sand bag the fuck out of everything until next year, and win that shit.

Re: Official Tournament Round 1 Files
It makes you wonder how many players are actually doing that...
