    Re: FFR 7th Official Tourney Songs Discussion: Round 3

    Firebird - Not much to say about it but it was a good chart.

    Calling Mars - Enjoyed this. Played very nicely.

    Baby Still Too Fat - Same as Calling Mars. That ending is easy to rush and pick up a good or two (This is from experience >_>)

    The Replicator - Tbh I didn't like this very much. There was a lot of awkward stuff in this file to me. Definetly should be bumped up in difficulty to like a 67 or 68 imo. Song was ok I guess.

    Press Start - Not really a fan of this chart. The walls are actually fine for me. First time playing I jumptrilled them all and AAAed them but it was sorta lucky I guess. I was upset to still see that 1234321234321 staircase thing in the file. I don't really like it. Pretty easy to miss in a lot of the jacks.

    Shotgun Surgery - I absolutely despise the beginning of this file. I'm getting sick of seeing long rock songs being chosen for D6. Not a fan of this chart.
    Best AAA = Aballava(?) + Serious Shit (97)
    Best SDG = Fushigi Usagi Milk Tei 8-0-0-3 (101)
    Best Score = do i smile? 3-0-0-3 (100)

      D1-D3's songs had nice flow and as AJ said, didn't take much of a difficulty jump.

      D4's song, wow. This is brutal compared to the last 2 due to the speed of the song, even some weird transitions in there. Really fun file though, flows awesomely.

      D5's song is stepped quite well actually, but the roll is pretty rough to AAA. It's possible to do it with just a jumptrill but timing it is also a problem.

      D6's song is well... I would say something along the lines of what Spitfire had said. The trills in the beginning are stupid, and I noticed the 12ths weren't supposed to start there yet the first time I played. Difficulty wise for the tourney, this was rigid as ****. I can't start the trills in the beginning correctly about 70% of the time since it takes a lot of control.

        I agree that the Press Start staircases are awkward, but remember... the sound they go to is awkward. I think it's appropriate and it's not one of the parts I hate.

          So much mad.

          And yeah, when stepping Press Start, the staircases were a massive trouble part to step, and I referred with people like Pattershoe, and idk if there was really a better way of stepping it.

          And no copy pastes either, i just emphasized left hand jacks like crazy (was worse in previous versions lmao)

            D1,D2,D3 - Song choices were pretty enjoyable, charts were fun

            D4 - Havent played yet, but the song sounds interesting

            D5 - pretty derpy

            D6 - Chart would be so much better if you just remove those intro trills, they are beyond stupid.

              i know the 1234 to 2143 wall is a /tad/ bit faster than a 48th wall

                D1: Not too much of a difficulty curve from last round, but this will be challenging for some D1 players if they're not aware of the beats. It's even more challenging when it repeats itself for the third half of the song with jumps anyone can easily split!

                D2: This one I feel is easier from the last chart simply because there's no tricks. BUT, there's a spot where all D2 players should be aware. It's that [1][2][3][4] 32nd roll that comes at ya! This will probably be the struggle area for all of D2, or maybe not. Better brush up on those rolls D2!

                D3: Speaking of rolls, D3 also has to brush up on their rolls. The song consists of a lot of running men, so it's a big bang for their buck. Then near the end the song launches two 32nd rolls! Ouch! I'm sure though majority of D3 will master the roll and head on through to Round number four.

                D4: Being biased, this chart is definitely not a 64, but this chart IS my new tournament favorite. The chart is very jack heavy and if that wasn't a problem, it throws mini-jacks mixed with 12th note JUMP STREAMS with occasional 24th bursts. This is definitely a big bang from the previous jazzy round. You have to be proficient with both skill sets too, those being able to jack well and to have good reading skills for those bursts. Definitely a challenging chart that will separate players.

                D5: This chart is fun, granted if you can master those walls. I'm not quite at the skill level, but from what I played, it plays very well. The song though is a bit "meh." The chart though just flows with it so it's all good. Certainly those walls will be the downfall to some D5 players.

                D6: HOL FOK THOSE TRILLS. But that's because I can't do them at all. With that being said, this is pretty fitting for D6. Of course once again it didn't stop the top players from nabbing that AAA on the first day. The rest of D6 though, it's all about how much stamina you have with this chart. The difficulty spikes are only in the beginning it seems, so if a D6 player can get through that part, they will be golden if they have the stamina and consistency throughout this monster of a chart.

                PS: D6 is a fun chart, despite me not being able to get a good enough score, lol.

                  As a mid-ranked D3 player I'm gonna disagree with the diff jump not being 'big'. Going from a 46 that I could almost AAA to a 55 that is way the **** out of my reach really feels like a decent jump ;D

                  I liked all the files this round, not gonna get into specifics. D4 & D5 have their work cut out for them and those trills in SS are nuts, but I like one handers :3

                      I think D4 needs some better song choice and charts. I turn off the sound to this song and do better than with sound. Also, chip tunes in general are terrible and need to stop being put in FFR so often. That isn't to say there isn't some decent songs on here that are chip tune.

Music is defined as any combination of sounds that is pleasing to the ear, so while one person may find it as "noise" another person can find it pleasing to the ear and so call "vibe" with it as how I think the kids would say it these days.

                            this round was a complete success, love all of the files.

                            Shotgun Surgery, SO MUCH LOVE. I don't care how bad I am at the intro the file is still fun as hell + amzin song.

                            D4 had a really sweet file/song as well, great job Carlos :>

                              Just wondering, the D3 song has been rated a 55, am I the only person who thinks that's a little high? The only part I'm really having trouble with is the first 20 notes, and I struggle to AAA things over 45ish usually, but I think when the lag is sorted that this will be getting a low SDG.
