Hell (Zyxel) - Fixes Required

** Sync is... kinda fugged. I guess the wiwi-sync is kinda on-brand for a song like this, but you can do better.

00:12.319 - The [12][34] jumptrilling motion you have going through this section and its many repetitions comes off as rather bland, especially given its not just a single repeating sound. I'm also marking this timestamp in particular because the same sound is charted as hand later at 00:13.679, 00:17.747, which does a much better job at giving the snare impact. Would recommend applying this to the rest of the section.

00:11.884, 00:13.248, 00:14.613, etc. - Whats the logic behind underrepresenting some of the kicks as singles here? You've got more than enough room to work with to layer everything more consitently (especially considering how much harder things get later on). Struck me as kinda weird.

00:23.250, 00:24.635, 00:26.026, etc. - Snares that were hands in the last section are singles and jumps now? Then back to using a hand at 00:28.796?

00:33.730 -> 00:39.225 - Quirky. I like it. Kinda lacking in structure or coherence as to what exactly is being represented and how, but im guessing thats the point.

00:39.225 -> 00:42.013 - This section is sorely missing at least jumps on the 4ths with such a heavy beat there. I can understand keeping it light for the sake of difficulty curve though- perhaps 8th js would work better here?

* 00:43.907, 00:44.171, etc. - the flams here are a bit much. With how loosey goosie the sax is through here, you want something a little more... grounded and consistent to keep things coherent. The current implementation feels overly free-form and a lot of it isnt actually even synced correctly with the sounds. I'm fine with the interpretation on the saxophone, but i'd really like to see the synthy instrumentals cleaned up with accurate timings and correct snapping. FRing this whole section.

00:51.933 -> 00:54.651 - see 00:39.225

00:52.961 - nice touch with the flams here, but why are these jumps when this bit is significantly more muted than the bits youre charting with only singles?

01:07.465, 01:07.946, 01:08.966 - looks like this section is only following snares, why the jump on bass here?

01:07.771 - Missing jump on snare.

I'm going to stop the notes here. This file has a good deal of charm to it, some aspects of how freeform the chart is play really well towards the song, but in some areas it just feels like its taken too far and ends up being pretty sloppy. I'll need to see considerable improvement towards sync, consistency and layering to greenlight this and even then its only because this is for the community pack- this would not fly in a normal batch. I'll give you the chance to do so as, like i said, i do feel this file has some charm. Fixes Required (star notes must be addressed and i'd also like to see more general cleanup. I noted some instances of some problems, but the issues extend beyond what is specifically noted. Review the file with these principles in mind.)
