Round 5
Theme: Potpourri
About the theme:
Potpourri - noun \ˌpō-pu̇-ˈrē\ - a miscellaneous collection.
(Sorry if you were hoping this round to be songs about dried herbs)
For more information on this round's theme, check out the side game.

As usual you can find these files in genre 8 on the Dossar Tournament Engine.



D1
Silence
Artist: Delirium ft. Sarah McLachlan
Steps: hi19hi19
Difficulty: 9
Length: 2:00
Max Combo: 797
Framers: 0,0,0,0,33

About the file: So Freefall wound up being a *bit* harder than intended, but that's okay.
This round returns down to a solid 9, and focuses heavily on slow minijacks.
At only 98 BPM this song is much slower than Freefall, but the pattern choice should still give you a good challenge.
In addition to a very long minijack section, there are some tricky fast (12)(23)(34) transitions to practice.
This also serves as a nice introduction to special color gimmicks. Enjoy, D1 :)


D2
Crunk De Gaulle (Second Movement)
Artist: edIT
Steps: wc
Difficulty: 11
Length: 1:42
Max Combo: 733
Framers: 0,0,0,31,29

About the file: D2 is graced with a file from master Carlos.
This file is a very high 10, borderline 11. It features a decent length 260 bpm stream burst, and some tricky jack patterns and interesting rhythms.
This file is an FFR-ized preview of a file wc submitted to the FFR Spring Community Pack, so if you want to check out a version with holds and SM-styled patterns be sure to grab that pack when it comes out!
Anyone interested in this song should know its full name is Crunk De Gaulle (feat. TTC, Busdriver and D-Styles)


D3
Harvest Dance
Artist: DJ Kentaro
Steps: Anaru & hi19hi19
Difficulty: 11
Length: 3:17
Max Combo: 2051
Framers: 0,0,1,74,92

About the file: Well now this is a surprise!
Anaru may have been disqualified from the tournament, but it's clear that one thing about him is not BS at all: his simfile making skills.
This file is a definite step up from Speed This, clocking in as a long high FMO.
There's a few long trills, some jacks, a stream burst (at 266 bpm) and some other smaller, faster bursts to deal with.
This file really tests a little of everything over its 3:17 running time.


D4
Final Battle
Artist: Oak's Parcel
Steps: hi19hi19
Difficulty: 12
Length: 2:09
Max Combo: 1486
Framers: 0,0,0,68,89

About the file: Oak's Parcel is a rather obscure Nintendocore artist.
I came across his music on YouTube and started listening largely because I found the name "Oak's Parcel" to be completely awesome.
Then I heard this song and realized it was incredibly steppable.
So D4, enjoy your 260 bpm jumpstream bursts and other myriad fast patterns! Thankfully they flow extremely well, or else this round could have gotten out of hand easily.
Members of D4B note that this file is possibly the hardest one you will have to play in the tournament- next round is actually considerably easier. You'll see how it all works out :)


D5
Playing Super Mario World While Taking Mushrooms
Artist: Shnabubula
Steps: SKG_Scintill
Difficulty: 12
Length: 3:09
Max Combo: 2627
Framers: 0,0,15,77,62

About the file: Scintill showed me this file many months ago in vidchat.
Apparently it had been rejected from some packs, probably for being overlayered and stupidly difficult.
But I loved the file- this is the kind of layerdump that I enjoy playing all the time!
I realized it would fit perfectly in this totally random round of my tournament. So I asked Scintill if I could use it and here it is.
Despite being only 180 BPM, this file is still extraordinarily challenging. At 14.25 arrows per second this file is actually denser than Death Piano!
Oh, and that surprise I've been going on about? A split jumpjack difficulty spike section, in the style of the two "Kirby" levels in FFR. bmah would be proud.

People have accused me of choosing files specifically to troll people- that hasn't really been the case... until now.
Enjoy, D5! :twisted:

Side Game: Name the Theme

So this round doesn't have a theme, right?
WRONG! The theme just hasn't been realized yet... and it's up to you to come up with it!

The terms of this side game are pretty simple: PM me what you think the theme of this round ought to be.
Everyone gets one submission, though you are free to change your submission at any time.
Once the round ends, I will post everyone's suggestions in the thread, along with who won.

Entries will simply be judged on how much I like them:
You could try very creative, very silly, or possibly even very astute, the kind of thing that makes me say "oh wow that IS a theme for these 5 songs that I never noticed!"

I will be giving out no less than 100k credits for this side game, so you stand to win a lot!

If there's a tie of some sort, my go-to tiebreakers will be qqwref and members the Team Blaze Skype chat (though said people are still free to enter)
This is a totally informal competition and I am hoping people will be able to enjoy some of the goofy ideas people come up with.

Regardless, I'll give this disclaimer anyway:
Anyone getting butthurt about this side game will be publicly ridiculed and/or penalized.
Keep it fun, folks.

Originally Posted by Zakvvv666 (Post 3650804) Ugh I'm finding it almost impossible to get a lag free run on Dossar's engine, any possibility to upload it to another engine? It's frustrating restarting 20+ times for a single lag free run x.x

Originally Posted by hi19hi19 (Post 3650810) Dossar's engine is the only one I've gotten permission to upload to. You'd have to talk to one of the Indeed admins about this, there's not really much I can say other than to try using a different flash standalone.

Originally Posted by hi19hi19 (Post 3650828) Yeah and you'll be getting at least one more VC for the finals, and Round 6 might very well be a 10 as well. I'm sorry but what ever gave you the impression this tournament was going to be easy 8-)

Originally Posted by Xx{Midnight}xX (Post 3650841) Of all the charts we've been given this one is the best.

Originally Posted by One Winged Angel (Post 3650847) yeah that ending completely destroys me, rip

Originally Posted by hi19hi19 (Post 3650849) mfw middie actually seems to kinda maybe like the chart for Final Battle you are unpredictable, man rip p.s. you can do better than that mr AAA'd music for kirby jussayin

Originally Posted by hi19hi19 (Post 3650781) Considering the sad state of D5A at the moment, I'm willing to make an exception for you :-D In all fairness, considering how late you are joining, qqwref and I agreed this would have to be just be for fun and competition, and no credits. If you are okay with that though, post some scores for all the previous rounds before the end of Round 5 and we'll count you in.

Originally Posted by One Winged Angel (Post 3650851) Music (for Kirby) has one hand trilling and one hand jacking, complete division of labour. This is just wat p.s. I can SDG to the end
