im doing another tournament diary WHOOPY
i am in division 4

round 1
d4 AAA
d5 song makes me say what the Heck i might grind it some more cause my score on it is not even worth posting on the profile yet

round 2
d4 AAA this song is cool
d5 11-0-2-0 also a fun file

round 3
d4 AAA took me hundreds of tries and iso runs, one of my most satisfying AAAs of all time

round 4
d4 AAA in 3 tries, thankful i got it this fast

round 5
d4 AAA in 20 plays - i did not think i was going to AAA at all because of some janky patterns but i was on a godly run today and got it on my first play of the day

round 6
d4 1-1-1-1 after the first day of playing - AAA maybe doable but will be very difficult. i think my rainbow flag is gonna be safe but i am a slut for AAAs so i still want to grind for it. improved to 3-0-0-2 and i am having a hard time improving further. this score is 1st place for d4 but anything can happen. improved again to 0-0-1-2, i feel safe with this score so i don't want to burn myself out too much trying to get this AAA.

round 7
d4 - got 1-0-0-1 in 7 plays, can't believe i got a safe score this early. i want to thank the coffee i drank this morning and MKII for telling me to change my offset.
after 3 days it looks like this score is gonna hold so im excited to make round 8 for the first time ever.

round 8
d4- 33-1-1-14 this file is fucking hard. i have a 36 good lead right now but i don't expect it to hold. this is going to be a tough week.
18-2-4-7 after day 2 of grinding. if i combined all my best runs how i did on certain sections i could have sub 20 on this so i'm definitely not done grinding. phoenixfire's scores are making me scared lol. now aidan is 15 away from my score Good Heavens.
16-1-1-4 after day 3. this score actually feels pretty safe. turning the file on mirror helped a lot, as does halved noteskin and lowering scroll speed. first round i've really had to grind a file to survive this OT, and i figure the other 2 D4 competitors will be grinding hard probably closer to the end of the round.

final thoughts - i'm happy to have won my first ever tournament. aidan had me scared with his final day scores but i won with a lead of 7.6 rg. i boosted from level 75 to 83 in 8 weeks and i became a lot more active on the discord in that time. it's been a hell of a lot of fun.
i would like to thank michelle obama as well as barack obama

i am in DIVISION 4

round 1 i dont remember what my d5 score was but i got a blackflag on d4

round 2
d4 AAA
d5 2-0-1-0

round 3
d4 blackflag
d5 11-1-1-5

round 4
d4 AAA
d5 20-5-3-5

round 5
d4 3-0-0-0

round 6
6-1-0-5

this might be the round i die but i'm grinding this song hard as fuck. yesterday i couldn't break about 55 and now i almost cut my goods in half on the second day. at this point i'm mostly concerned about the 32nd streams. third day and i feel way closer to an SDG, at least once i figure out that last 32nd stream. now on day 3 i just got a score that i'm much more confident with [14 raw] but not done improving. 2 more days and haven't improved the score but having plenty of runs that make me hopeful. this cutoff is insane right now. 6th day of playing this file, i felt pretty down and out after my first couple runs but i just snagged an SDG run, which puts me back above the pee. still anything can happen.

round 7
19-2-3-6


really no motivation this round, tried for 2 or 3 days and it was just not happening. it was a good run though, especially had a good time with round 6. i have been eliminated after this round and ended up in 5th place.
