Re: 13th Official Tournament
And this is where I drown. It's been fun, and I got farther than I expected to make it so no regrets from me. Good luck D5, and there are a small handful of friends I'll be cheering for.

Re: 13th Official Tournament
Wanted to actually take D7 this year (and I'm convinced I could do it...) but bad setups mean I'm out this round. My laptop, not that old, quite often glitches giving a wall of misses, and the keyboard drops inputs pretty regularly (it's what killed me early on last tournament). And my roommate's laptop runs the game fine but his keyboard can't handle quads consistently at all -- nearly any quad I hit looks like a 4321 roll on the receptors which has ruined plenty of scores and given me walls of goods, particularly this round with all the 24ths and that quad-heavy ending. My mechanical keyboard is up at my workplace, but I haven't been there since mid-March orders to work from home (and getting in there now requires submitting a safe work plan: "hi why are you here" "html5 html5 revolution haven't you heard").
I can still get a dumb as hell sightread like this while warming up though: Whatever, I've got a PIU machine in my garage now so that's my real focus. x) Good luck D7 freaks, I wish I could've made this harder on you. |
Re: 13th Official Tournament
Hey Thanks to all my D4 Competitor n_n this is sadly the end for me. I was unable to play during my 5 day trip and didn't manage to grind my place for this round. That Was really fun and i'm finally beginning to be better with roll XD Good Luck to all the D4 in top 16

Re: 13th Official Tournament
Vantablack file of the year 2020
What an amazing song/chart to proceed us into Top 8. |
Re: 13th Official Tournament
I'm too tired to make An Announcement but just know that one is coming for the snake in Cobra Commander.
It also took me writing this out to get the joke of it and it'd better have been intentional ositz Also I don't intend on playing Vantablack cuz oh goddddddd |
Re: 13th Official Tournament
might actually fucking get vrofl
|
Re: 13th Official Tournament
Hell yeah man go for it!
- Also, my fat ghost step hitting fingers wouldn't let me past round 3 lol GOOD LUCK TO THOSE STILL IN! |
Re: 13th Official Tournament
grant you mad lad already with the AAA

Re: 13th Official Tournament
Only 8 people in D4 can get to the next round while 9 people will drown in the pee... This will be difficult, wondering how the cut-off value evolves towards the end of the round :D

Re: 13th Official Tournament
Calling it quits here, barely played R5 as well. It's not that I do not want to play, but because of the high frequency part in the song, it literally renders me unable to do shit. I'd play muted but I end up doing worse on mute than normally. It sucks to have to go out this way, but if I have to, I guess I will. At least I win something out of this OT though and that's all I care about at this point. GL to everyone else in D6.

Re: 13th Official Tournament
@everyone who gets Top 8 and need to choose between Vertex Beta vrofl and Strangeprogram v0.
I highly suggest you to pick Strangeprogram v0 because Vertex Beta has alternative unlocks and you will get it sooner or later if you play enough. |

Re: 13th Official Tournament
I don't know if it was naive (ironic consdering the song title) of me to think that Round 5 wouldn't be a SDG-or-die round but hats off to D5 for being super competitive. This has definitely been the most competitive tourney - along with the 9th official where I got eliminated for getting 3 clean on HAELEQUIN - and we're all pushing each other all the way which is awesome!! I might have to improve my 5-0-0-1 but I'm hoping I don't have to grind it further but D5 is incredibly competitive this year and whoever wins it will definitely have earned it, for sure!!

Re: 13th Official Tournament
scores not submitting?

Re: 13th Official Tournament
This is such a cool anomaly to see in D1. Shoutouts to Telnaior for being the lowest score to qualify into round 5 -- and being 1st place for this round currently!

Re: 13th Official Tournament
I've noticed that D5 this tourney has it so easy compared to when I was D5. I mean 11th OT was so hilarious with difficulty from the start.
R1: 77 R2: 84 R3: 84 R4: 88 R5: 88 R6: 88 R7: 93 R8: 101 This time it's.. R1: 69 R2: 72 R3: 77 R4: 80 R5: My guess would be 83 Just something I wanted to point out. Not sure if it was meant to be easier than back in 2016 or if it just aged that way. |

Difficulty progression seems similar to OT 12. 11 was just rude for everyone.

Re: 13th Official Tournament
At least now I know. Was never used to things being this easy for me when I'm having to ghost a division (for the ongoing event), let alone one that I got 10th in back in the day.

Re: 13th Official Tournament
Welp I think this is it for me for this tournament, I'm getting my wisdom teeth out tomorrow and I doubt I will feel good enough to be able to grind my way into the top 8 by the end of Tuesday. D2 was ridiculous this year and everybody was amazing; I'm definitely better from all the competition. Good luck to everybody else still grinding away!
Oh and I really should switch playing from Velocity to R^3 before the next tournament :P |

Re: 13th Official Tournament
Well it looks like it's my turn to join the others in the graveyard. Overall, I'm pretty happy with my performance this past month. Thanks for the fun competition D6 and good luck to the remaining folks in the tournament!

Re: 13th Official Tournament
This is where I drown, I didn't make my goal of reaching the top 8 but I'm still happy with Fractured Sunshine and a good chance for a token from Revenge of the Drowned. I want to thank all my D2 competitors for pushing me so far, especially themastergrant, you're an inspiration.
During this tournament I got my first two (and so far only) 30+ AAAs, got a lot more confident on going for AAAs on 20+ songs and increased my AAA count from 160-something to 256 and rising, increased my comfortable scrolling speed from 2.4 to 2.8, learned the usefulness of trying out the Mirrored option when I'm stuck and discovered how asymmetric my playstyle can be (there are some patterns I can handle fine in one direction but never get perfect in the other), and even though I felt like my score on Breakout wasn't great compared to the rest of D2, it was still my highest AAA equivalency of any song and finally bumped me from level 39 to 40. |
Re: 13th Official Tournament
Well I said I would be in Top 16 and above and I achevied it. This was my best tourney run so I'm not mad or anything. Still I did get salty at Snorestop as the ending part of the file was lack luster. But I learned a few things:
- Get better at Grace note patterns and bursts - Have better stamina so I don't have my arms go to sleep - Give more time for me to warmup instead of jumping into file - Practice more tempoing and distance myself and take breaks - Finally get a better keyboard, this ones breaking like the keys are. Anyways with those points out of the way I made Zorack proud by getting at least top 16. I want to thank: - Zorack24 for helping play this game more - _Fluttershy_ for the person who inspired me to play cuz I was a mad brony at the time lol - Xiz for also being there and being my fav stepfile artist - FFR Staff for hosting the tourney. Well anyways hope to keep playing more. I will upload the satus of my replays soon and talk about what I could of improved on: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSg...vbFAAaebi70bHg |
Re: 13th Official Tournament
May as well join the thread of people talking about drowning this round lol
Honestly just joining this OT, I never went in to win but just to see how far I ended up going, and round 5 way exceeded my expectations, I've been constantly skillboosting throughout this tourney and I couldn't feel happier about where I placed for my first OT (even if it was 16th out of 16 lol). Just honestly want to thank Ultimate Mike7, Pizza69, Hakulyte, MarcusHawkins, ULTIMEGA, CammyGoesRawr, BigHayden1 (still sorry I sniped you <3) and many others for the overwhelming support I got throughout my time in the tournament and for motivating me to get as far as I did (especially on Trap Funk). Also a huge thank you to the FFR Staff for organizing probably one of the best community experiences I have ever gotten to be a part of in a game. I'm still gonna see how far I can push ghosting D6 and D5, but my time as a living competitor has ended. Still rooting for Mike (Semi-Pettanko Brother) and Arere (Mid D6 Gang) to go as far as they can in this! |
Re: 13th Official Tournament
The triple booflag is so tragic right now... My keyboard decided that the AAA was not to be this round... On to just trying to SDG this bmah file lmao

Re: 13th Official Tournament
was a good run, but this kills the crab :)

Re: 13th Official Tournament
Yeah I am not SDGing this file lol. I'll just be happy to move on to the next round. This is rough...
edit: posted right after file came out when I was super low on sleep and in a bad mood. I think I got this. Just posted up a good score |
Re: 13th Official Tournament
fuckin scraped by lmao

Re: 13th Official Tournament
WSCB and .Gazelle.: you have 24 hours to get the best score on floating point (Drumcorps Remix) to break the round 5 tie. Loser goes home in 9th place.
|
Re: 13th Official Tournament
holy shit did i pull through??
|
Re: 13th Official Tournament
lol I guess this is it for me as well. I'm kinda sad I drowned, but also kinda impressed I managed to make it this far. I actually skill boosted a month or so before the OT started, but my wrist started hurting right before the tourney started so I haven't been able to play too long at a time. I guess now that I'm out I should rest my wrist properly before it gets worse.
I'd like to thank the FFR staff for the tourney, and all the step artists who sent in massive bops (so many). Also I'm looking forward to next tourney so I can face off with Oberon once again woot. |

welcome to pktr2100 advanced longjack techniques

Re: 13th Official Tournament
I've put in my best effort and got probably the best score I am capable of, let's see if a miracle gets me into round 7 somehow...

Re: 13th Official Tournament
lol i really enjoyed Vantablack. I cant really play it effectively(2 sections mostly) but the rest of the file is pretty fun.
