Re: 16th Official Tournament

Right, I'm saying that the round was therefore set up such that everybody who submitted made it through, like no new person was eliminated. Just funny was all.

Yeah, it was just unclear with the labelling of "flams (grace notes)" since generally I consider Jacks to need to be the same tempo/rhythm, while musically FPF feels more grace notey.
