      Down with the Sickness is my childhood! Well at least a part of it.

        Chipscape was very nice, I really liked the pretty bursts and how they worked, this was some of the most fun I've had on an FGO.

        Down With The Sickness was not really to my taste, although the [14]^4 parts was a nice motif. Most of the file felt bland to me though imo.

        N's Farewell is a beautiful song but some of the PR seemed deliberately inverted, idk. Easy and soothing.

        Witchcraft was cool too, although why was like the first half of the long jacks frontloaded as 1111? No matter, fun stuff!

            Chip looks fun, can't wait to play it

            Witchcraft plays to my strengths, if I don't split the hands/jumps

              I'd like to echo VisD's statement there. The bursts worked really well in that. I enjoyed Witchcraft as well.

                just played chipscape it was ok kinda fun but the hands being colored is really distracting and confusing for me, i'm expecting to hit rolls and it really makes it hard to focus

                they aren't bursts they're all hands

                like if i could turn off colors i would to make it more enjoyable

                rating seemed fine to me it has some tricky stuff, personally it took a ton of control and focus for me to get it and felt as hard as an 80 to me

                  If you didn't use the N's Farewell from this current batch, I recommend you fix that.

                    I don't really like some of the transitions in Chipscape but other than that it's fun.

                      Eze and I agreed on 80 last night after we both played through the file once, but I just replayed it again a few hours ago and bumped it a few notches down after songs were live. It's got some nasty one hand transitions and minitrills, but I really don't think it should unlock Scarhand. (sorry Eze, wanted to talk to you first about a rerate but didn't want to risk Scarhand influx on this...the colored bursts are really easy to get around and the rest doesn't feel FGO to me)

                        still think it's like 76 idk lol cause all the bursts can be hit as hands but i guess 77 is fine

                          Use column colors. That should help a little.

                          Also, Chipscape is pretty darn good.

                            as posion said a ton of transitions had me really nervous, im surprised i actually got an aaa because i felt so inaccurate. still rating is ok.

                            down with the sickness - could be better could be worse. i was a bit disappointed that the vocals were only stepped in part of the breakdown since it's the most important part of the song. but everything else seemed nice.

                            n's farewell - opinion: i'm not a fan of slow grace note piano files as they are awkward to hit especially for beginners. not much to say. it's alright though.

                            withcraft - fucking awesome. i love the hand usage and i wish hand usage were a bit more liberal in general in files especially when it matches the energy of the song.

                              chipscape owns

                              down with the sickness was really boring, glad I sightread it

                              n's farewell was okay, should have went easier on the grace notes and I think halving the bpm would have made the file look a bit better, great song tho

                              witchcraft was awesome, jack usage was way fun and layering was pretty spot on
