* This file needs some work in terms of consistency. For example, 29.762, 50.187, 56.570, 69.336, and 184.230 are all the same sound but you follow them differently in each case--sometimes you follow the burst through to the 16th and sometimes you don't, sometimes you have a trill and sometimes you have a roll, sometimes the trill is 3 notes long and other times it's 4. Seeing as your layering & general approach remains pretty constant throughout the chart, your patterning to instances of that sound should be consistent. I would advise against going with the 184.230 or 50.187 patterns, but any of the other three are fine.

- 26.730: Why a burst at 27.209 but not here?
- 29.363, 80.427: Remove minijack--it's weak PR, and there's no minijack at 35.746.
- 41.171: Make this consistent with 34.549.
- 46.038: Missing 8th
- 47.794: Ghost note.
- 48.951: Ghost jump. The 32nd minijack on [34] is acceptable, but you also don't accent this at all at 99.974. Make it consistent.
- 52.022: Nice transition
- 54.336, 60.719, etc.: You followed these with 64th bursts at 45.400 and earlier, don't follow them here, and use a 12th starting around 77.421--there's not really any musical reason to change how you follow them at least until 102.528, so I'd recommend picking one and sticking with it.
- 57.847: This sound is very constant, so breaking off in the middle of it feels odd. You follow this with a solid 64th roll at 149.762, which works fine; since there's some more interesting instrumentation going on here as well, you could also just accent the buzz by a hand when it starts and then not use any 64ths for it.
--> An additional note: The roll at 149.762 is quite long for how fast it is. If you want people in this chart's target demographic to actually roll it, I'd recommend using 48ths instead. 64ths are fine if you're cool with people jumptrilling.
- 60.879: Nice use of repetition here.
- 67.501: The rhythm here is pretty janky, but the 16th and 8th after this are more accurate on the 96ths at 67.607 and 67.714. (Technically there's also one ~67.541, but omitting that is reasonable.)
- 71.411: Nothing here to really merit a jump and the sound continues through to the 8th, suggest making this straight 64th singles. See 72.528 for a good example.
- 72.448: Missing note
- 120.320, 124.150: Missing notes--followed at 123.113.
- 135.719: Same jump as 135.081, but noticeably lower in pitch. Suggest [12]21 starting from 135.719.
- 151.038: Wow, this is really janky lol (correct though)
- 157.740: Same jump as just before, but lower
- 169.469: Missing note (followed at 169.868)
- 169.549: Minijack here doesn't make sense because this is to two different instruments.
- 180.081: This burst should continue through to the 16th.
- 192.927: Ghost note--I agree this sound could use some accenting, but don't think this is the way to do it. Perhaps a hand on the 16th would work?
- 205.081: Missing note in the structure you have currently.
- 211.357: No reason at all for the minijack here.
- 233.538: You follow this triplet but not 234.815. Make it consistent. If you follow these, you're also missing notes at 234.576, 235.453, 235.772 etc. Given the bit starting at 235.932, I'd recommend adding all of them.
- 240.879: Missing note. Similarly 248.219.
- 242.953: These 4-note jacks don't make sense PR-wise, nor does 245.506.
- 253.326: Missing note.

- The halved bpm works really, really well for this song, good decision there. The song is quite nice, and the chart has potential to be really fun to play... however, it still needs quite a bit of work before it goes into FFR. In particular, the chart needs to work on consistency. There's at least one sound which you follow by bursts in at least *five different ways* throughout the chart, which isn't really justifiable given how static the song is. You have some freedom to play with patterning between instances of the sounds, but the rhythms should stay the same and any motif you have going on (e.g. minitrills) should stay the same too. There are numerous smaller inconsistencies throughout the chart as well, many of which I've mentioned in the timestamped notes above, though my list of timestamps is not comprehensive--they are meant to direct you towards what is wrong, not list every instance of every inconsistency in the chart. I really do want to see this polished up to an acceptable state though, and I have to say this would be a hell of a first chart to get accepted. [5.5/10]
