Since these comments are from long ago, I'm going to link them so you don't have to dig: https://www.flashflashrevolution.com/batch_submission/batch/?id=2097
I wanted to address changes / the notes from last time so it's not "Xel submitted the same file with no changes." There's *very few* changes though.
7.198 & 10.335 - Completely different mistake actually, it was a missed jump on an 8th and if you slow the song to about .5 you'll clearly hear what the minijack on the 16th is to.
1:37.261 - 2:29.072 - I should rename it to Staminakiller. (Bad pun, not sorry.) But in all seriousness, I don't think reworking this part does anything productive and would force a whole change to the file. It fits and is structured, and is also a neat reference to other renditions of remixes of this song.
2:32.310 - I actually don't agree, it represents and seperates each sound distrinctly based off how it's charted.
2:34.739 - If you're charting the main music and not the slide sound, yes I agree.
2:37.370, 2:50.728 - This was a sloppy mistake on converting the Etterna file to FFR. Fixed.
2:46.629 - It's to the same type of sound the 32nd pattern after it directly was following.
"The heavy amount of minijacks makes this more tiring than may have been intended. The emphasis provided by the minijacks can also work to obscure what is actually being followed.
Capturing all the hi-hat/percussion notes also heavily obscures the melody and can make this a bit more confusing to play."
Each part broken apart is interesting in it's own way, combining them all made a file befitting the game it's from: Touhou.

Judge notes hidden until score is given.
This chart has an overreliance on jacks, sometimes I can't tell why something is a jack and why something isn't.
Like why is 0.115 a trill, but 0.925 a jack? Exact same sound, this is a recurring problem I have with the chart. None of the jacks are wrong per se, but I don't think there's enough reason or justification for why it has to be so jack heavy, the jack use also seems inconsistent.
- 1.532: Why 24ths here, but not in other spots like 2.341 or 5.579, my initial guess was that it had to do with the pitch, but then you have spots like 8.008 where the pitch is the same as 2.341.
- 5.782: Patterns and jacks like these just seem so unnecessary, like why are these jacks. I feel there not even repetition here, you're just arbitrarily turning those ''hi-hats'' into jacks to make the file more difficult.
- 11.955: One of the few notes that I think should actually jack doesn't lol.
- 14.687, 17.925 etc.: Jump? It's consistently done here, but why?
- 22.782: PR in this section is almost entirely backwards, it doesn't even make sense when wrapped around.
- 24.553: Small nitpick but I think this 32nd should be on [2] since the sound starts on the 16th and not on the 32nd, it makes more sense for it to be ''attached'' to the 16th.
- 30.574: Because of the hidden jack and it being so heavy on the right hand this pattern is pretty tough and in my opinion arbitrarily so.
- 30.945: These 24ths make no sense even from a ''dump'' perspective.
- 33.307: This section is unnecessarily anchor-y, no repetition here.
- 35.128: I'm fully behind stepping this sound as 32nds, but why in such an abrasive manner? What part of this sound indicates 3-note jack with hands?
- 36.444: These staircases are not following the sound well imo.
- 40.087: This first jack makes sense, but 40.491 doesn't. It makes this whole section feel incohesive since it's a recurring pattern.
- 58.605: Why is this even a jack, it's on the same column as 58.200 which is a very different sound.
- 59.415 - 71.356: What even constitutes a jack in this section? This entire section makes no sense to me. I agree with some of the jacks like 64.474 and 64.677, but there are alot of jacks in this section that seem completely random with different sounds and jacks being on the same column as other jacks while sounding completely different, it's a mess honestly.
- 76.415, 82.993: Most of the jacks in this section are actually fine, but this one should be changed for PR.
- 97.059: What's with these white notes, what are they representing?
- 97.261 - 149.073: Alot of repetition here, with alot of questionable jacks.
- 149.275: If you're gonna step this as 24ths, at least start from the 4th.
- 153.323: Are these jumps following the melody, if so why are notes like 154.031 not stepped as jumps?
- 154.807: This shouldn't be 24ths from the 4th, the pitch bend happens on the 16th.
- 160.069, 161.351: Very questionable 24ths.
- 168.907: Why jacks?
- 171.032: The pitch bend starts on the 16th not on the 8th.
- 186.380: These 24ths are off, it should be a 32nd at 186.464 and a 64th at 186.540.
- 212.015: These are randomly 24ths again after not stepping this sound as 24ths for like 10 instances before it.
This chart has consistency problems and I don't agree with the layering throughout the entire thing, alot of the jacks have no justification and the chart seems overly abrasive just to make it arbitrarily more difficult. Parts of the chart were fun, but the majority felt really confusing and like I was doing the same jack pattern 100 times.
