I know I've mentioned several times in the past half decade or so that I was done with taking rhythm games seriously as far as working myself up and improving. But life has a way of moving things and I'm done taking it seriously.

I might one day have the itch to play again but I won't be taking it to the level I was and I've long accepted that.

One Love and Peace.

Made from March to April. Impressive, ehh?

I just want to share you guys with my Noteskin named "pinitik-circlesbutffr".

It's 64x64, very compressed using `oxipng` but still looks the same since its in PNG format and thanks to ImageMagick & GIMP, I can actually make simple Noteskin enough! :D

Drawing 2 White Dragons from the Dead Wall (via Kan) is insane!

Well I was sadly booted out round 1 due to some unforeseen circumstances with my families health, but I will try to ghost the rest of the tournament and see how well I do!

--------------------------------------------------------Round 1--------------------------------------------------------

It's All Over - 846-384-4-0-0-1

Decently fun file, I dropped 1 good in every burst but its okay this first try back home would have been good enough to get my through this round!


--------------------------------------------------------Round 2--------------------------------------------------------

Creature of Habit - best 1254 - 377 - 3 - 0 - 2 - 1

Sightread 1163 - 455 - 15 - 1 - 2 - 5

I'm not great at these sort of bursty rhythm charts but I'll keep trying :)

Technically eliminated but I think I would have been able to improve had I had the motivation of getting eliminated for real!


--------------------------------------------------------Round 3--------------------------------------------------------

Gym Leader Battle Music (Hi Tech Remix) - Sightread 1265 - 494 - 6 - 0 - 2 - 3

Fun song but I'm not really pushing myself sadly. I think I will tap out here

My logs of achievements in FFR I appreciate and proud of :)

[b]Thoughts[/b]:
Wow, that took long. I haven't even played Etterna fully this month, I instead warming up and got this before my adrenaline shuts down. Very nice!

hey guys welcome back to another episode of me being insanely washed right before a tournament today we're going to try and compete in bracket 5 so hopefully we can survive a few rounds also dont forget to like and subscr

[b]Round 1 : Upshift - ([color=yellow]AAA[/color])[/b]
This file already makes me scared for what's to come in the tournament since this is one of the most difficult 97's in my opinion. I managed to get the AAA after getting an unfortunate blackflag which I honestly considered keeping as I am not consistent at hitting the longjacks. Hopefully now I can get some of my speed back before round 2 lol.

[b]Round 2 : Deception - ([color=yellow]AAA[/color])[/b]
Was already much more confident I would AAA this over Upshift lol, this file is one of my favorite 100's and I've replayed it quite a bit since it released. Don't have too much to say about this one. Cool song and stuff.

[b]Round 3 : Mishnu - ([color=yellow]AAA[/color])[/b]
Just got back from a pretty unfortunate day at the Gregtech Factory hopefully the tournament song isn't too b- oh its mishnu. Anyways I thought this was gonna be a pretty tedious grind as AAA'ing it for the first time took a while but this was a surprisingly fast score to get, taking under 20 minutes after opening the game. I have no clue how, but I'm not gonna complain lol.

[b]Round 4 : F.F.R ~FINAL FRONTIER RESOLUTION~ - ([color=brown]BOOFLAG[/color])[/b]
oops

oh hey cool d6

an astute observation to make would be "wow this place is really old haha" but that's boring so I won't say that, at least not without a layer of irony to make me sound cool and self-aware

anyhow should i be making my profile more aesthetically pleasing or is it high time to ignore such things

Hello there ! I've been playing a little bit here and there the past few weeks, i think i was just bellow 225 AAAs but with all the new songs that came out the past 10 years+ even an index player like me can AAA number a little probably ?

I'm not gonna edit my profile that wasn't changed since... 2009 ?
Anyways, i hope anyone reading this now or in the next years have a wonderful day :*

Here are some stats to follow my post from 2012 ;D

I also cleaned one of my worst "fail score" which was a black flag on {Blaze}, it felt good, one of my best AAA on this site. Let's see if i can get a few more like that.

If i check my dashboard this seems to be my 10 best scores ? (very funny to see that aside from 1 song those are all from 14+ years ago) :

And let's see if i can slowly get to 500 AAA ! See ya !

I don't even have 100 and I've been playing this game for a bit

I should probably start grinding low difficulty maps for easy AAA's, I like numbers going up anyways

Wow I completely forgot this site exist even in the big 2026 I have come back to my account to see if it still existed and wow it does to this day just wow...luckily im still living and kicking just living life lol alot has changed for me wow

Today alone I got (over) 69 AAAs!

so like when am i gonna be able to play in an ot as a g7/d8 player :( i want my event tokens :(

[b][color=#533e91]Thoughts:[/color][/b]
cool file, i hate the [23][23]34 though. simple enough file that there's not that much to talk about, though some of the longjacks in notes ~400-800 can be a bit scary. couple attempts in iso smoothed it out enough to fluke it.

[b][color=#533e91]Round 2:[/color] [url=www.flashflashrevolution.com/levelstats.php?level=3187]Deception[/url][/b] | [b][color=#533e91]Score:[/color][/b] [color=yellow]AAA![/color] | (564p, 3att + 2 untracked restarts)

[b][color=#533e91]Thoughts:[/color][/b]
I WON'T BE PLASTIC AND NEUTERED AND NUMB

had a blackflag on deception prior to tournament so i'm happy i got an excuse to fix that flag

happy about the AAA, surely that'll continue into next round right ?

[b][color=#533e91]Round 3:[/color] [url=www.flashflashrevolution.com/levelstats.php?level=3187]Mishnu[/url][/b] | [b][color=#533e91]Score:[/color][/b] [color=Orange]9.6 raw i think?[/color] | (i forgot to write these down)

[b][color=#533e91]Thoughts:[/color][/b]
Mishnu is surprisingly inconsistent, I was able to AAA 0-1200 and 1200-end multiple times in iso, but trying to put it together was fruitless in the end. Honestly worth trying some more post tourney just to try to get equiv, because there IS potential there, but nerves made it far too inconsistent for me to get. Also kind of annoying that there's 1200 notes of pretty "free" stuff before the actual hard sections of the file but oh well.

[b][color=#533e91]Round 4:[/color] [url=www.flashflashrevolution.com/levelstats.php?level=3439]F.F.R ~FINAL FRONTIER RESOLUTION~[/url][/b] | [b][color=#533e91]Score:[/color][/b] [color=grey]26.2 raw[/color] | (guess what I forgot to do again)

[b][color=#533e91]Thoughts:[/color][/b]
Somehow managed to live by a single boo after like a 3 hour session of warmup lol.

Honestly, I really like F.F.R but grinding it out did really suck due to the minijack section at 2100 combo. I never did end up getting a AAA strat for the minijacks and the fast JS after it, but it was good enough to live the round, so that's fine I suppose.

this is NOT an OT log don't even THINK about it

bracket 5 smile :)

I feel like I just got pushed down a flight of stairs with this insane difficulty jump from last round
It is definitely doable though, just gotta quickly derust a little bit and I'm sure I can get something <7rg
Edit (Thursday): No I cannot lmao, it is what it is, calling out for a miracle to reach top 8

WOW I'M STILL ALIVE ??? Anyways, feels nice to finally achieve top 8 in a tourney, even though this was (not) an Official Tournament. Time to give it my all on this file, I've had a lot of practice with it in the past.

LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Today I achieved something simply amazing. I got a total amount of 69 AAA's. Am I worthy?

I'm #666, now everyone obey me or something like that

i don't wanna lose all this money brah

So it's been a few months since I've been active at all within FFR and thought I should probably make an RT about why that is.

At the beginning of March I got a new job that is pretty physically demanding and my free time is pretty limited because of it now so that's kind of put a stop to my activity here and my ability to continue playing FFR, especially competitively, since I can no longer push for skill anymore let alone regain anything near what my peak was back in the 17th OT days.

Maybe in the future things can change but things are how they are right now for me so until then I probably won't be showing much activity around here for some time with life keeping me busy. I'm thankful for the progress and fun I've had since returning to the game back in 2021, and getting to catch up with old friends as well as making new ones.

This doesn't mean I'll be fully gone from the site or whatever. I'll still check in here and there to see what's going on and maybe casually participate in events if I can.

the 20 year comeback is real
