Re: EMG Rivalry [D4/D5/D6]
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?

Re: EMG Rivalry [D4/D5/D6]
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

Re: EMG Rivalry [D4/D5/D6]
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

Re: EMG Rivalry [D4/D5/D6]
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:

Re: EMG Rivalry [D4/D5/D6]
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.
