so over the course of a few months I feel like I'm at a skill level that is the same as when I quit playing.

I'm fairly optimistic that I can continue improving and push far beyond what my skill was now that I'm back to my low D6 level.

I've recently gotten many scores which have replaced scores in my Top 50 on the leaderboards, most recently my booflag on Skeletor replacing the #4 spot I have. This is the first time that my FFR Rank has improved since the induction of the idea. My rank went from 183 -> 175. While indeed it is a small jump, it is my first jump and for that I find it extremely notable.

From here, I'm going to focus more heavily on playing files that fall in the 77-85 difficulty range, as well as spending more than half of my time on alternate engines such as FFRMania and play files that are outside my comfort level. As evidenced by my AAA's, I have strong FFR accuracy and now just need to build my reading ability to push into harder songs. By pushing into harder songs, my accuracy can transfer over to more difficult songs (70-80 range) which I'll be able to eventually AAA without too much difficulty.

I'll continue playing while balancing my work/school schedule as August approaches.
