-[00:19.817 / 00:19.957] Didn’t include the 16ths here? Odd choice.

-[01:29.840] These bassline notes are extraordinarily quiet for this section, would recommend just doing the vocals here instead since those are an underlying theme within this chart.

-[01:46.102] Absence of sound, probably should remove this single.

-[01:49.466] Absolutely brutal 4-note longjack on right hand at 214BPM.

-[02:47.223] Same situation applies here as note 01:29.840. Stuff after 02:53.952 can stay.

-[03:13.298 -> 03:21.709] This was, oof. Only vocals, none of that juicy D’n’B. This needs a fix. Just use the regular Drums & such instead of vocals and it would work much better. It is extremely out of place otherwise.

-[03:22.270] ow

-[04:41.896] Start the 16th trill from the hand.

-File is quite long, but structured pretty well. Structure-wise, it’s lacking heavily where vocals are incorporated/not incorporated. Needs a fix for 03:13.298 -> 03:21.709 before going in, suggest looking at other vocal-related notes as well.

14.630 - ghost-y
18.415 - ghost-y-ish
23.602 - ghost-y
27.037-35.728 - I can’t figure out what the 64ths here are going to. It’s clearly not the vocals... I’m assuming it’s the very faint hi-hat in here, which is missing one around 30.910. Subjectively would suggest removing them because they’re so quiet
42.948 - missing?
64.887 - if you could rearrange the pattern here to not be the current [12]2[13] (awkward-ish left hand stress at this speed) that might be nice (not necessary)
106.663-107.785/similar - :ohyeahwooyeah:
122.574 - missing?
177.878 - ghost?
189.654-190.495 - wow… uhh… maybe double down on the 12ths (make jumps, remove the polys) for BarGain flashbacks? Idk the polys just feel weird to me but I guess I just never really liked polys to begin with lol (not necessary)
238.999-241.803 - :wooyeahohyeah:
259.887- 261.009 - Feels off sync here. I do think it’s worth taking the time to either dicksync or subbeat tweak this because there is a definite swing vibe here that isn’t represented

Yeah alright. At nearly 5 minutes, this is quite an endurance test. Some touch ups would be good tho.

This is regarding GS' CQ. Alright I've decided to not layer in the vocals since I don't have a convenient rule on whether a spot deserves pure vocal or pure melody, so I'll just remove all the vocals and replace those spots by stepping the main melody. Please recheck the file, specifically these spots that I've changed as a result: "0.121-8.952, 1:00.681-1:01.522, 1:14.840-1:20.868, 3:13.298-3:21.709, and 4:32.644-4:37.445" Also, I nerfed all the mini-jumpjack sections by balancing their hand bias.

A new chart file was uploaded with the following changes:
----------
Note Count changed: 3486 => 3468
AVG NPS changed: 11.88544 => 11.82407
Hand Bias changed: -42 => -78
