Re: 9th Official Tournament -- Round 1
The thing about Mirage Garden is that the patterns flow extremely nicely. Although it may be higher in note density and a longer file, it has no real difficulty spikes and lends itself to an easier file overall from a mind-block perspective. Some players will definitely find it easier to score higher on than the D6 file but to say that it is easier than the D5 file is a bit of a stretch. If anything I think the difficulty on Stories Can Wait could be bumped up a bit (66 max though). I also liken the difficulty of Mirage Garden to something like Staring at My Spaceship (72) but with it being slightly more intense and rhythmically demanding making it a 75 at most. Guile of the Rime King has some fairly choppy patterns in places and a spike in the 32nd burst but otherwise it's a fairly straightforward file. I think the difficulty choices are for the most part fine.
