8th Official FFR Tournament
Posted on: January 12, 2013, at 01:41:24am

Well, now that there's D7, I won't have to worry about getting smashed by Samurai and such but there still is some interesting competition between the other fellow D6 players.

Goal: Well, I guess I can aim to win this division, but I honestly doubt that. I'll settle for top 5 this year~

Round 1: Pussy Pump (AAA)

Well, here we are, the first round of the 8th official tournament, starting it off with an interesting file. This song is pretty catchy, not going to lie and I had to take my "ctrl" key out of my keyboard while I was playing because during a AAA run, my R and the ctrl button caused my Flash Player to reset. After that, I AAA'd it right off the bat.
Other than that, fun file, hilarious song, and hopefully they fix the sync issue with it because I had to AAA it without sound.

Round 2: Beautiful Arrhythmia (1-0-0-0)

Well, I gotta say. This is a hell of a chart. Has so much complexity and such that makes this chart so fun and playable for me. Although, I really don't like the pattern at the beginning. It infuriates me to be honest. If I can manage to get that part down and AAA it, I can probably AAA the entire song. I can tell this is one of those songs that if you don't get it in the first couple of tries, you're going to have a hard time improving this file. All and all, great file, great song, praying that I don't get mindblocks and I'll update this if I improve.

EDIT: Black flag, gg round 2. There's no way I can improve it. I have total mindblocks on the intro.

Round 3: Weapon (AAA)

Holy shit, is this file tiring. Racking at around 3,300 or something along those lines, regardless, that's a shitload of notes for a song. My first time I actually played the entire song, I got 0-0-0-4. I swear, they were all from my keyboard :x. So I just said "forget it, I'll see what I can tomorrow morning." After a few tries, I managed to nail the AAA on it.


Comments about the song: This is probably the most fun I've had on a file in a while, this song just really grabbed my attention with the fact that it's around four and a half minutes with insanely fun patterns as well. As much as I don't like jacks, mini-jacks seem to be one of my main advantages, kind of brings me back to Rock Rock Rock in the 7th official. All in all, amazing chart, amazing song, see all of you D6 survivors in Round 4! :D

Round 4: 2-9 (AAA)
I wish I could write something about this song but I got the AAA in about five tires ;-; Fun chart, nice song, and I guess I'll see the survivors in round 5. :D

Round 5: Infinity (Cosmo) (2-0-0-0)

Aw yiss, handstream and weird patterns! This is a fantastic file honestly and I'm thankful for another stamina song. I was very nervous that I was going to end up mindblocks with this song because if that was the case, I don't this score would've happened. I can maybe improve this with some luck on the weird mini-jack but if not, I think this score will do. I had a 3-0-0-2 run before school and then I managed to snag a 2 clean run once I got home. All in all, fantastic chart, song, hopefully this will put me through the next round! :D

Round 6: The Ordeal Becomes Great (4-0-0-1)

Well shit, we're almost breaking the 90's now! I'm going to be honest, this is a pretty intense file with the colorful clusterfucks and such but this is an amazing file to play. This file does sort of require some kind of luck on some patterns because if you hit them wrong, you're going to drop some goods. For the 6 clean run, I think I had a AAA until 1,600 but I dropped 4 on the one of the colorful clusterfucks. My score if definitely improvable but I think this is a nice score for now!

Edit: Lol, 4g? To round 7 I go! :D

Edit: 2 more people supped me. Getting pretty nervous right now considering I can't improve this at all. Hopefully, I can make it to the semi finals ;-;

Round 7 (Semi-finals): Stinger (8-0-0-2)

Well, shit, I've made it this far before and hopefully I can get myself farther this time, this song is an absolute clusterfuck to be honest. I like weird charts and such but this one pushed the limit for me. It's consisted of constant roll bullshit that screws my flash player over and causes a lag fiasco. Not to mention the jack for my Q-pad broke (Which I might be able to get fixed today) so I'm stuck with this old bulky keyboard of mine that I have hardly any stamina with at all. I'm really hoping I can get my keyboard fixed because if not, I'm in some deep shit, I'm not taking 4th place again as well, not this time :x Hopefully, I can improve my score by a lot and get myself to those damn finals! :D

Edit: Got my Q-pad fixed. Flash player still works like a piece of shit so I'm not sure what to do about that.

Edit 2: Surprisingly still in 2nd, improved my score as well to 12-0-0-5, also found an engine that works quite smoothly for FFR.

Edit 3: Pulled out a nice SDG score of 8-0-0-2, it's keeping me at the cutoff line so I can't be too sure of advancing to the finals just yet. If someone manages to take the advantage and pass me out, then I might be in some trouble...
