      So how will this new thing work?
      How will the songs be chosen?
      Do we know if at least one person is in each block or not?

      And since I'm level 72, am I in the 69-72 block?

        Check the sheet (the new link in the OP and in the above post, 7.8/10 would recommend bookmarking if you did that with the old sheet), it'll answer all of these questions

        Song selections won't change at all, there'll be one per range
        I used p much the same ranges as before, except now they're not grouped in threes for each division

        As for the spaces in the sheet where scores will be recorded: for each person (each row), the columns are shaded almost-white for the 3 blocks that will be judged competitively, all of the other columns are grey (but can still be filled in with ghost scores)
        Looking at the sheet, we have 3 to 5 people in each range except for 65-68 which has 2 people. Mostly a good balance

        Yes you're in the 69-72 block, at least until you boost out of it
        (I'll say right now to everyone on the high side of their ranges and those of you who have had a generally negative outlook on their self-improvement: there's literally 0 benefit to not try to improve your skill rating past the end of your range, the entire point of the rivalry is to boost and there aren't any real rewards at stake to sandbag for. Do as best as you can, as skill is the only permanent thing in this kind of game, everything else is just events that are held to mark your progress along the way)

              Re: EMG Rivalry [D4/D5/D6]

              Glad to finally kick things off!

              The time I get around to posting each week will vary but generally should be between 2-8pm. Such a wide range, I know, but continuing this on into the fall I have to base it around my schedule for the semester, which for Monday involves a class, music lessons, possible sports practice, and astro research.

              For a general sense of what I do for each week, I'll go through and play a bunch of songs in each range to get an idea for each file's style, and try to provide a good mix of styles and lengths to each range that people are playing. This takes a bit of decision-making but I hope you guys enjoy the variety I try to create I also try to avoid some notorious files, and at least a few of the upper ranges are gonna be a bit limiting later on due to that :/

              Anyways, here's the first list! On the spreadsheet, you'll see your skill rating next to your name. Following the row will be some grey and white cells, the 3 columns in white are the main files you'll be judged on. The other people with white cells in the same column are the people you'll be competing with for that difficulty range. Feel free to play the other songs anyways and show off your scores here if you'd like!

              Note: I did slightly shift the lower ranges a bit to balance it more, the only person it affected was benny, please take notice (unless you'd like to stick with the higher range, especially with the coincidence that your best score on the 66-69 song haha)

              Week 1: 8/1/16 - 8/8/16

              [53-56] [54] Radiant
              [57-60] [58] Tougenkyou -H.E.Remix-
              [61-65] [62] Nebula [she]
              [66-69] [67] Fast Asleep
              [70-73] [71] Clockwork [Breakbeat Heartbeat]
              [74-77] [75] Of course you Need and...NEED ME
              [78-82] [79] The Bird's Poisoned Bathwater
              [83-86] [84] Double Helix
              [87-91] [88] Rave 5


              Scores will be accepted until the week ends next Monday at 6:00pm EST (5:00pm server time) or up until I get around to posting

                  You need like 1 more improvement to hit 83 yeah lol
                  If you wanna have the 83-86 block as your center go right ahead, you're probably in that generic skill range for the most part

                    The higher range is fine for me, I like playing songs up to difficulty 69.
                    Also, on the first few attempts, I've improved my best score:

                          im just gonna do all of them for funzies and because im horribly rusty still teehee. PAing even easy things is really killing me rn for whatever reason.
                          way more than 3 resets

                          way more than 1 reset

                          actually got this one first try god bless

                          like second try hashtag killin it, dunno why the first two took so many tries

                          luv this file so much tbh. i'll fix this later in the week tho its a pretty trolly aaa

                          the 6 goods i got on the slow jack were REALLY dumb but o well. i'll fix this too

                          had u asked me when i was d5 i would've told you this was gonna be my scarhand get but uh yeah that never happened and now im trash booty at this file.

                          pretty good until the bmah, didnt hit any of my usual mindblocks on this file except for the first miss.

                          ive never been good at this file but this score was traaaaaaaasshhhHHHHHHHh, will defo improve

                            will definitely keep trying though, I want at least an sdg for both before the week ends

                                So excited to get back into the Rivalry! The tournament was getting a little too stressful haha

                                Anyway, I'm gonna go ahead and do one below and one above my difficulty range. One below because I wanna try to rack up more AAA's and one above since I've been getting into playing low-mid 70's.

                                Radiant: Initial run, will be difficult to AAA but possible


                                Tougenkyou: Love this song! Can definitely SDG this.


                                Nebula: I have 5G on this already.. may try to get a better score when I feel like dealing with jackhammers

                                Fast Asleep: This may be my least favorite 67


                                Clockwork: One of my better low 70's and improving this will be my goal for the week.. this run was pretty shitty but apparently I've done better



                                EDIT: J/K about Fast Asleep, I think that honor goes to Papyrus's Adventure

                                EDIT 2: Got a few improvements, including Fast Asleep but forgot to save that one.
