Before The Story (Ultimate Mike) [7.5/10]

PERMS OK
SYNC OK (?) BPM should really be 130; 195 makes no sense for a piano piece this slow. The quantizations would be the same except for the 24ths flams.

15.583: (13)24 here to match the PR of 0.814 and to distinguish from 12.814.

22.968: (23) here, both pianos.

26.660: This 4th and 24th flam should be reverse to a 14, since it's the 24th that matches with 27.583.

34.506 & 38.198 & 49.275 & 52.968: This motif is inconsistent. Just keep using the pattern variations with no 8th minijack.

41.429 & 56.199 & 1:10.968 & 1:25.737: These minijacks on column 4 don't really match anything. Remove the minijacks.

1:05.660 & 1:06.122: These are different pitch than the previous 16ths. Shouldn't share the same column. Could do (24)323 instead of the (24)131. Same applies to 1:20.199.

1:13.506: Missing note on 4.

Pretty cute chart overall. The difficulty increase of these 16ths is considerable, but the song is short and they're definitely justified musically. A few inaccuracies here and there but nothing too major. Good job.

Playtest Impression, 1.0x Rate - Maybe? Drags a lot but isn’t overly long either.

22.968 - jump?

Sure. Decent little easy file. Toby Fox appeal mitigates the draggy-ness somewhat.

Thank you for the notes! Stoaked af to finally get some accepts again and giving myself that confidence booster again in stepping! I applied most of the notes given but left some out, mainly the following ones:

Re: BPM 130: I left it at 195 because changing to 130 would make the 8ths turn to 4ths. And this file was meant to be easy and 'cute' ie. I would like to keep the 8ths and such (:.

1:05.660 & 1:06.122 - These are really subtle and i would have like to kept the trill sections i had going for this ending, but i basically mirrored it and kept the 8ths on column 1. Hopefully thats fine!

1:13.506: - I also hear what you mean but i'm gonna leave this blank, i mainly stepped the 16ths to the main third melody brought in rather than to the 'brush' noises. Hence why i ended it at the 8th.
