NEWALONE
--------
- Permissions, sync, metadata good.

- 12.277: More accurately on next 32nd (at 12.345). Similarly 21.004, 73.436, etc.
- 38.459: Fairly minor concern, but would prefer less column 2 bias here. Similarly 97.095.
- 42.413, 103.504: I get why this jump is here, but it feels a little too heavy for what the song is doing imo.
- 51.822: What makes this a white jump but 52.095 a normally coloured single? Similarly 113.186.
- 54.209: Much less prominent than the other three notes in this 32nd burst, suggest removing.
- 54.640: ow
- 64.913: This sequence feels needlessly straining on the left hand--not particularly spiky, but rather weird.
* 87.277-95.459: The difficulty curve in this section feels very backwards with the minijacks stopping as the song picks up and the density staying the same, and a large portion of this feels very overdone in general.
- 106.129: This burst feels really overdone--it's hard to parse what it actually goes to at full rate, and it doesn't fit in with your otherwise rather conservative burst usage.
- 111.277: This is a single at 50.186, make it consistent.
- 114.072: Not the same sound as the jack before, suggest column 3.
- 127.640: This is pretty mean on the left hand.

- This file is alright technically, but I feel like it often places emphasis (whether through layering or patterning) in ways that are unintuitive or don't feel very faithful to the song. Of particular note is the section at 87.277, which is one of the denser parts of the chart (and with nontrivial patterning--you have those minijacks) but it's just buildup. [7.5/10]

At first, I agreed, but after listening some more, the 32nd would feel a bit late.

- 38.459: Fairly minor concern, but would prefer less column 2 bias here. Similarly 97.095.
Fixed with a [13] for 38.459s, and with a [23] for 97.095s.

- 42.413, 103.504: I get why this jump is here, but it feels a little too heavy for what the song is doing imo.
Disagree.

- 51.822: What makes this a white jump but 52.095 a normally coloured single? Similarly 113.186.
Artistic license? idk, this just feels right to me. Of note is that the single arrow is, while louder, doesn't have the impact required for a jump.

- 64.913: This sequence feels needlessly straining on the left hand--not particularly spiky, but rather weird.
Yeah it is a bit more left-handed for sure, but I'm not one of those guys who's obsessed over making the Hand Bias approach 0.

* 87.277-95.459: The difficulty curve in this section feels very backwards with the minijacks stopping as the song picks up and the density staying the same, and a large portion of this feels very overdone in general.
Addressed via Discord messages.

- 106.129: This burst feels really overdone--it's hard to parse what it actually goes to at full rate, and it doesn't fit in with your otherwise rather conservative burst usage.
Really? Super obvious to me. If anything, looks like I missed an arrow, so I added to it.

- 111.277: This is a single at 50.186, make it consistent.
Absolutely not. It's a bass drum and three really gritty synths.

- 114.072: Not the same sound as the jack before, suggest column 3.
That's not how I'm seeing it - if I use the up arrow column, then that would mean the following 4th note would repeat on the up arrow.
