Bmah's Notes:
4ME / Otomania / Coolboyrulez0
rating: [+?]

- m2: might be nice to step the drums when the mp3 starts
- m4,m8: PR could be better
- for a good part of the song, stepping syncopated rhythms seem rather empty if you want a song of difficulty 8; at the very least, you should try to step some of the other instruments that come into play
- compared to the majority of the simfile, 16ths in places like m26 is fine but inconsistent with the overall difficulty
- m38,39,other similar measures: PR could be better

summary: Correct but relatively empty for the most part. Layer more with the current patterns, or if you want this to be an easy simfile, be more consistent with the difficulty.



11ELEVEN / DJ Sharpnel / 0
rating: [+?]

- m1: jump not really warranted
- m2: you could step a 16th that appears right before the 16th stream you have here
- m3-9: a lot of the 8th arrows may be best omitted, because a percussive instrument at 8th beats comes later at m11 and on - this would be better layering as well
- m10: redo 16th pattern right before the jumps to be consistent with a pattern similar to that in m18
- m18: right before the next measure, missed a 16th that goes with the drum
- m19-25: might want to check the drum patterns that go on here - you're missing additional 16ths that appear in each measure
- some patterns are pretty uncomfortable such as those in m32, 34, 66 and especially patterns like m38 in which the jumpstreams are partially trills; please reconsider many of these patterns

summary: as hard as the file wants to be, many of the patterns are overly awkward and not really fun.



666 MPH / Bong-Ra / Vote4Nixon
rating: [+.]

- m13-15,77-85: more fun if you layer the oncoming/fading drums
- m25-26,33-34,45-46: don't forget to layer the hi-hat 16ths like you do in other measures
- m27-28,43-44,59-60,75-76: 12ths/24ths missing
- m37-38: missing some 4ths/8ths going to bass drum
- m88: last jump should be a single arrow

summary: Would be fun if you step a bit more percussion and drums as indicated. Repetitive song.



⑨'Piano Lesson ~Beginner~ / Mistbell / MahouMinachan
rating: [-]

- I guess the arrows are timed accurately, but the uneven timing of the piano notes result in a pretty unappealing simfile. I question the suitability of the simfile for beginners.

summary: I think for a game that's mainly focused on timing arrows, a beginner piano song with a performance-based type of accuracy (i.e. mostly offbeat) is not appropriate for an "easy" song on FFR. An easy song on FFR would be better off having more timely arrows.



A Battle for the Sky / Ikodo Moonstrife / Silvuh
rating: [+.]

- you step mainly 16ths to the synths for most of the song, but it still may be preferable to layer a bit more. Some examples: the opening melody that starts at around m7; percussion in m14 and on; melody at m26; and more, etc.
- m44, 46: fix PR (involves 16th down arrows)
- m48,64: the 32nds at the end of the measure is pretty emphasized; I recommend you add it
- m50: missing an arrow? check arrow patterns
- m51: should have a repeated arrow here; check arrow patterns
- m57-64: you've partially layered this section with 8th arrows; fully layer it with 8ths you're missing

summary: Not bad, but a bit more layering would be nice. The current patterns are pretty linear.



A Change of Seasons / cornandbeans / Patashu
rating: [+?]

- m26,28,etc.: measures with this melody has a few 16ths that can be added. I don't think it would change the difficulty of the simfile.
- m81-88: a single 8th stream may be better instead of dividing into smaller 8th streams
- m113-120: repeated arrows of double taps would be better here according to the synth melody
- song is repetitive and rather lengthy

summary: Biggest complaint above all else is the song length. Please make a shorter edit if possible.



A Question of Fate / Dimrain47 / Psychotik
rating: [?]

- m25,26, etc.: place jumps at cymbal crashes; also, the arrow patterns at the end of m26, etc. could probably have a better pattern
- m27, etc.: 8th jump at beginning of 16th stream unnecessary
- m31: missed jump at cymbal crash
- m37,38,etc.: perhaps layer also to the percussion that goes on briefly here
- m39-46: don't know why you place some of the jumps as you have here; check the multiple melodies in this section again and add/remove jumps as needed
- m47-48,etc.: you have 16ths in these sections, but not the measures following them. The synth melody isn't any less emphasized. Add more 16ths to other measures for consistency.
- m51,etc.: missing a 4th jump here
- m55-56,etc.: firstly, jack at beginning of pattern is unnecessary; secondly, the melody definitely calls for a more varied pattern than one long trill
- m81: missing 4th jump
- m112-133,etc.: perhaps some of the 8th jumps are better off as single arrows

summary: Patterns could be stepped better overall. Some areas are understepped, some places could have better patterns. Also, if you can cut this song a bit, that would be appreciated - it's repetitive.



A Quick Death / kkrusty / who_cares973 & Coolboyrulez0
rating: [+?]

- noticed a lot of arrows that were either missing or were stepped to nonexistant/unnoticeable sounds:
- arrows to unnoticeable sounds:
m7,etc.: unnecessary 16th right arrow right before m8
m8,etc.: one of the 32nd up arrows is unnecessary
m17: two 32nds in this measure is unnecessary; also, check arrows right before the fast rolls
- missed steps:
m13,14: in several areas after groups of 32nds, check and redo 16th patterns; also, missed a 16th jump in m14
m15,16: each measure has one or more missing 32nds
m18: roll after the left-right jump is actually faster than 32nds
- there are plenty more areas with missing or unnecessary arrows. Please check each measure carefully. Try editing at 0.6x speed.

summary: File's very technical. There are just too many places where patterns having missing or unnecessary arrows. A few arrow patterns were pretty weird too, especially at this speed and difficulty, so perhaps look into that too while you're at it.



Aki / she / TK_pavonineukon
rating: [+.]

- m10,12,14,16: jack placement is questionable
- m17,etc.: minor suggestion: jumps that go to the loud percussive sound at every second beat might be better off placed to areas that wouldn't create jacks.
- m33-35: the runningmen pattern would actually have the repeated arrows on 16th beats rather than 8ths. You're probably putting the left 8ths arrows to the other sound that's prominent here.
- m37: last arrow is misplaced

summary: Discrepencies are minor. Take a look at some of the jack patterns again, as well as the runningmen pattern. Nice and short.



Altered Beast / Saskrotch / who_cares973
rating: [?]

- some areas seem to have 16ths that doesn't seem to go to anything, such as m3
- louder percussive sounds are often marked with jumps, but you seem to be missing a few, such as 16th jump in m5 and several in m6; actually, this error is found throughout the song
- m9-12: missing some 16ths that occur from the bass sounds; oddly, you did acknowledge one of them in m11
- m28: repeated arrows should start on a 4th (the up arrow), not an 8th

summary: There's an inconsistency of using jumps and single arrows to percussive sounds that are more emphasized.


Angel Island Remix / darphfluffy / Silvuh
rating: [+.]

- m4: missing the layering of percussion in latter half of measure
- m18,etc.: missing some layering of percussion, but it also looks relatively good as it is
- m26,etc.: I know you've put a jack to acknowledge the percussion here, but you're focused on the synth melody. Avoid jacks here. There are several measures like this.
- m62,63,66,67: the melody would be enough, so perhaps avoid jumps here. Also, trills don't need to begin with a jump.

summary: Pretty fun overall. Biggest thing is that some of the layering combines the synth melody with the percussive instruments to make patterns that flow a little strangely.



Arrogant Cobbler / Nero's Day At Disneyland / Kommisar[os]
rating: [+]

- m55: missed a 16th jump from drums
- m56:
- m73-74: 16th jumps questionable, but it plays fine on the fingers; it might be neater to step this section more accurately if you can.
- m91,95: missing a 16th at end of 16th stream in each instance

summary: Nicely done! Just look over that weird section at m73-74 again.



Arrrrrr / Jon Brownell / Vote4Nixon
rating: [+?]

- I'm assuming this is supposed to be an easy song, since the layering is very thin and steps mostly go to even beats and some melody at most.
- the song has so much more potential for stepping, but it's ok for an easy version

summary: Easy steps, but IMO song is better suited as a harder file. Meh.



Asteroid Run / Rushjet1 / Patashu
rating: [+.]

- m7,etc.: at first I disliked the fact that the trill pattern turned into a seemingly random 16th pattern, but since this repetition of 16ths occur throughout the song, a mixture of patterns is understandable for variety
- m11,etc.: optionally, you might want to continue the 16th streams with jumps that go to the melody, but this is fine too
- m25,etc.: the 16ths in certain places seem to be "fillers" but are unnecessary
- m82: don't need jump

summary: Most of the suggestions I've made are optional. PR is ok for the most part too.



Battle Theme #31 / Reone662 / SulferDragon
rating: [+?]

- m1-4: main drums stepped with same repetitive pattern boring; why not vary it and add the bass as well?
- m13-20: again, vary your patterns
- m29: jacks don't go with the guitar that well at all

summary: Make for some variation in your patterns. Please change the jacks too!



Beadumaegen / Wisp / Vote4Nixon
rating: [+.]

- m1,5,6,etc.: in a few places like here, I don't hear the 32nd going to anything. Also, the quick gallops should have jumps from layering.
- m4,etc.: in these parts, you miss a 32nd preceding the last jump
- m12: there should be groups of triple 16ths here
- m14,19,22,etc.: in a couple places, there are a few 16ths I don't hear
- m28-29: missed a few 16ths
- m54-55,72: no need to step the faint sound effects going to 64ths
- m80,etc.: the "hoo!" sound effect goes to 8th beats, not 16ths

summary: Weird song, but it generally plays well. There are several steps that go to nonexistant or highly inaudible sounds, which is not necessary.



Black and White / KgZ / Silvuh
rating: [+.]

- m1-7: many of the single arrows should be jumps in conjunction with the piano chords
- m28,36: should be repeated right arrows at end of measure (listen to sounds)
- m57-63: same comments as m1-7, but in addition, I don't think you need to step the "residual" sounds that follow a flute echo. For example, the first four arrows or so as m59 begins is unnecessary. Residual sounds are generally best ignored for stepping.
- m67,etc.: more "residual" arrows not needed

summary: Nice, except that you don't need to step the residual sounds resulting from echoes.



Blame It on Bad Luck / Bayside / bluguerilla
rating: [+]

- m1-8: some patterns feel pretty weird; also makes for a pretty inconsistent difficulty compared to much of the song
- m43-50: perhaps step to some of the drums as well

summary: The beginning just results in inconsistent difficulty - you may want to change some patterns to mitigate that, since you do step the sounds correctly.



Bouff / Machinae Supremacy / Patashu
rating: [+]

- m17: missed some 16ths where the drum rolls into the next measure
m65: missed some 8ths preceding the following measure

summary: Minor errors at most. That's about it.



Bunny / Glowstyx / _.Spitfire._
rating: [?]

- m16,etc.: stepping jacks to the voice samples present throughout the song is kind of a poor excuse to make this file harder; it's worst when you add jumps as well, starting at m41
- m17-32: One huge 16th jumpstream makes for a monotonous file. Perhaps an occasional break-up of the streams?
- m35: change the last left-up jump, according to PR

summary: Enormous 16th jumpstream + jackstream = no.



Bullet's P.O.V. / Jon Brownell / Vote4Nixon
rating: [+?]

- m2,etc.: the almost-quad rolls are not needed; a jump will do
- m5-9,etc.: more layering please!
- m11,etc.: incorrect pattern; listen to melody again
- m19,etc.: I don't hear the last few 16ths
- m22-24,etc.: if the main melody is still playing, it's better to step that instead of the sound effects
- m25: underlayered

summary: Many areas have a lot of errors. The main melody is more important than the sound effects. The second half of the song is very repetitive with copy-paste patterns.



C7 Funk / Tomo Fujita / Xandertrax
rating: [+]

- m26: missing a 16th near beginning of measure
- m27: missing (a rather quiet) 4th
- m29: missing two 4th arrows
- m33: missing a few arrows here

summary: Just a few arrows missing to some guitar strumming and you're done.



Car Sax / Cranky / who_cares973 vs Cyanite
rating: [?]

- m9: 32nd rolls is a feature that's a bit overboard here; a single arrow will do
- m11-12,etc.: incomplete layering; this is common throughout the simfile
- m18,etc.: stepping to every little sound in this song results in some pretty clumsy-looking, cluttered steps; you don't need to step every sound!
- m38: 16th streams not fully complete

summary: Don't step to every sound in this song, or the steps will certainly be messy. Also, the layering's pretty broken and not fully integrated. Finally, you only stepped half of the song...the other half's awesome too.



CCUK / Venetian Snares / i love gabba
rating: [+?]

- m11-12,15: single arrows preferable, not gallops
- there are several areas where you add arrows to nonexistant sounds, such as m16,22,23,26,34,38,etc.
- there are several areas where you missed arrows to pretty noticeable sounds, such as m17,21,35,41,etc.
- some places simply have misplaced arrows, such as m26 (misplaced roll at end of measure), m41 (64th jump really just an 8th jump),etc.
- m106: since the drum sounds appear to have "descending" tones, use PR for the 16ths instead of a trill

summary: Inspect the file more closely for the details. Add in missing arrows and eliminate arrows that go to nothing.



Chaoz Japan / ParagonX9 / who_cares973
rating: [?]

- m7-9: there shouldn't be a 4th jump after each 16th jump in these measures
- m10,etc.: the string's melody plays with two jacks in each instance, not three
- hard but really awkward patterns at several places such as m57-58
- the version in-game already is pretty sufficient; I don't think a buffed-up version is needed

summary: Hard but not really in a fun way. Also, the in-game version is good enough as is



Chaoz Survivor / ParagonX9 / Ziergdsx18
rating: [+?]

- m8: the slowdown is neat and all, but since you wouldn't see the difference on FFR, as well as the fact that you turn every 4th beat arrows into 8th arrows, please remove it
- m11,18,etc.: the 16ths here don't usually go to the music, such as the group of five 16ths at the end of m11 or the 16ths in m18
- m24,31: I don't hear the 32nds
- m49,etc.: the groups of five 16ths doesn't go to the music well

summary: It's kinda fun. but much of the steps do not fit to the music. Step more accurately - slowing down the music in the editor helps a lot. Also, re-adjust the simfile so that 4th arrows are on 4th beats and so on - remove the slowdown.



Charging Swarm Of Mouseketeers / Nero's Day At Disneyland / SulferDragon
rating: [+?]

- suggestion: since the song repeats itself again approximately halfway through the song, change patterns a bit for variety, starting at perhaps m62 or m70
- m86-87,etc.: jumps should alternate according to the music, not just left-down jumps for example; also missed a 16th at m87 and similar measures
- m88,etc.: beginning of measure is missing some arrows
- m86-99: patterns are really repetitive, so change patterns a bit

summary: A hard simfile with some frustrating parts to PA, but the main thing is that a lot of the patterns are overly repetitive. Has good potential.



Chemical Attraction / AEROJET / TK_pavonineukon
rating: [+.]

- m17-20,57: layer the synths that results in triplets of 16ths, like you did in other parts of the song
- m17-23: layer the drums too here like you did earlier in the song
- m41: start measure with jump to cymbal crash
- m42-47,59: step drums that go to a gallop beat
- it would be nice to hear the fade-out of the song, so optionally, you could leave a lone arrow at the very end of the mp3

summary: We need more songs of this difficulty. Not much to say other than fix the incomplete layerings on some parts of the song.



Clockwork / Breakbeat Heartbeat / Xandertrax
rating: [+]

- m13-19: why not step the main melody as well? Add a few 4ths here and there.
- m21 or m29 onwards: The way the beat of the song is emphasized, I think it's way better to double the BPM, even if it's just for aesthetics
- m25-28: it's better to still focus on the melody rather than the characterless percussion with a repetitive pattern
- the fast dnb section of the song has a few areas with missing arrows or those that should be omitted. Some examples:
m28: after trill right before m29 you missed an arrow
m29: some fast arrows missing halfway through measure
m30: the right and up arrows in the fast roll doesn't exist
Several other measures too...m31,32,etc.

summary: Just take note of the dnb areas and correct missing/unnecessary arrows. Editing at 0.3x is very helpful. And if you don't feel lazy, try doubling the BPM at m21 or m29. Really fun file.



Coldest Night / Koto / -Barista-
rating: [+?]

- m25: incomplete layering on the drums and claps
- m27: probably don't need the repeated two left arrows
- m28-35,52-59: jumps not quite justified; the synths aren't any more emphasized in those places/piano playing only one note each time
- m37,41: missing 16th to a clap in these measures
- m60: according to jumpstream pattern, first jump here isn't needed
- m68-75: the second half of this long 16th jumpstream should be a little different; since you placed jumps to the piano, add some more jumps here than you did in the first half of the stream (climax theory)
- m80-83: why stop the layering all of a sudden? Continue with full layering.

summary: Some parts of the song are more appropriate than others to emphasize with jumps. Fix the ending as well.



coloris / she / TK_pavonineukon
rating: [+?]

- m5-7: pattern should have repeated arrows, not alternating up/down ones
- m10: misstepped a few arrows
- m12: missing an arrow
- m17-18: try placing jumps on the emphasized 4th note beats
- m27: don't hear any sounds going to 24ths
- m29-36,45-52: stepping the synths and guitars here would be really great plz!
- m67-74: patterns pretty bland; layer more (e.g. 4th beat drums) as well as make patterns more varied

summary: The file initially looked promising, but it ended a bit sloppy with the omission of many neat synths and layering



Colossus / Ikodo Moonstrife / Silvuh
rating: [+.]

- m12-17: you seem to step to some nonexistant/inaudible sounds, namely 8th arrows
- m19: don't hear the 16th
- m37,41,45: incomplete layering of strings and drums
- m62: misstepped an 8th

summary: Not much to say, other than don't step to nonexistant or unimportant sounds.



Cook Rock Disko / t+pazolite / _.Spitfire._
rating: [+?]

- m2: how is first jump justified?
- m2-16: acknowledge the synth in this section instead of making one long stream of 8ths; remove arrows or layer more
- m17: you can have the string of repeated arrows, but why not layer this section as well?
- m21,29: add a jump to the start of the 16ths to complete the layering
- m25,33: optionally you might want to step to the offbeat voice sample in middle of measures
- m51,etc.: extraneous arrows not going to lyrics not needed
- m58-74: same patterns over again; vary this repetitive section; I also don't hear some of the 16th jumps you've stepped

summary: Repetitive song, so vary patterns more. Several places also contain unnecessary arrows.



Corneria / megamon88 / cry4eternity
rating: [?]

- m7,9: first beat is not a jump according to your layering
- m10-11,etc.: this file is defined by these 16ths streams that go to relatively weak 16th sounds. Maybe it's ok to use on occasion, but IMO it's better to step some other sounds altogether
- m13,etc.: incomplete layering near end of measure; something like m70 is better
- m46: missing a 16th
- m50: might want to step 16ths to the drumroll
- m101: what's with the ending?

summary: The 16th sounds aren't really too audible to justify having a simfile with mainly 16th streams. Also, the song is repetitive but can easily be cut.



Csikos Post / SHK / woker-X
rating: [+.]

- m1: should actually be all jumps in this measure (listen to piano)
- m2: check jumps and single arrows, according to piano notes and chords
- m6,10,etc.: missing an arrow in the grace notes of the piano (the fast notes); do something similar like m2
- m44: one right arrow is nonexistant; steps would fit better as a trill just like piano playing; also layer a little more in the end

summary: Minor fixing, and it's overall fun.



Cybertron / Orange Dust / megamon88 and cedolad
rating: [+.]

- m23,31: some emphasized drums here may be better as jumps
- m35: first jump better as single arrow
- m45: should be a single arrow in place of what is currently a down-right jump
- m46,57: missing a 16th in each measure
- m47: single 8th arrow should be a jump
- m55,63,85: might be better with no jacks; try different pattern
- m56: misplaced a 16th
- m58: 32nd roll not justified for the sound it steps to
- m87: three of the down-up jumps better as single arrows

summary: Minor errors at most. Technical file, but I like it.



Cyclone Escape / anth0n / bob bob
rating: [?]

- m1-10,etc.: steps don't follow the music too well; they're more like DDR-type steps
- m11-12,etc.: plain 8ths are boring, so layer more (e.g. drums, the "boom" noise on m12)
- m34,etc.: missing 16ths in these sections; layering is lacking as well
- m50,etc.: missing 16ths in these sections; also, why is there a lone jump only on m50?

summary: Follow arrows to the music more closely, and layer a lot better. The prominent 8th streams get boring quickly.



Cynthia / Glome / Cyanite
rating: [+?]

- m6,etc.: some parts of the piano play either single notes or is much more easily interpreted that way, so not all steps should be jumps here IMO; also, you should still step to the background synths
- m38-39: three-arrow chords are most likely two-arrow jumps according to the piano notes
- m45-57: maybe this time around, layer the piano more fully as well to up the difficulty a bit
- m61-88: numerous jumps missing from not stepping some of the piano or string instruments; it also gets a bit bland after a while, so one big 16th jumpstream isn't ideal
- m88-89: missing 16ths from piano notes
- m98: IMO remove the placeholder jump; I don't think anyone would want to listen to the very end

Summary: Some step patterns become bland after a while. Also missing several jumps in the second half of the song. Finally, this song doesn't really feel like an FMO.



Deceitful Wings / SSH / cry4eternity
rating: [+?]

- for a song that certainly has areas of repetition, it's way too long. Please cut the song.
- m6: change placement of jumps (listen to melody)
- m13: should be single arrow after 32nd rolls
- m15: jumps are single arrows
- m56: listen to the guitar melody again - it's not the same as in previous measures
- m64: incomplete layering of drums
- m76: synth may allow for a 32nd here
- m91: a bit empty here
- m97-112: incomplete layering. It's mainly missing 16ths from percussion.
- m124,etc.: incomplete layering of synth melody
- m167-174,183-184: check carefully to make sure arrows are synced well to guitar solo; don't assume they're all 12ths or 16ths
- m185-190: if possible, please try to fill in empty spaces, despite the fact that this part is a guitar solo; also forgot to step guitar at m190
- m193-195: 8ths are better as jumps
- m254: missed an 8th
- m271-273: there could definitely be a better pattern than this; also, missed some 32nds going to drums

Summary: A lot of places have incomplete layering. Also make sure to step the guitar solos accurately. Finally, cut the song!!



Determine / Ikodo Moonstrife / Silvuh
rating: [+.]

- m1-8: layer also to the percussion as you do in other parts of the file
- m21-28: incomplete layering of percussion (8th arrows missing)

summary: Minor fixes; easy song.



DeVouR / DJ Cristo / Xandertrax
rating: [?]

- this song suffers from "step to every buzz" syndrome, and many of the 32nd patterns are too awkward as well. Some of the main culprits include: m27-42, 45-59, 64-65, 72-74, 77-84
- m77-84: follow synth melody more closely instead of stepping repeated arrows through entire measures
- m95-102: incomplete layering (lone arrows between repeated arrows should be jumps)

summary: Basically is Toxiferous Dystopia on crack but in an unfun way because of the 32nd patterns.



Discocube / KgZ / Brilliant Dynamite Neon
rating: [+.]

- m3,etc.: 32nd should be a 16th
- m1-8,etc.: I feel that this section might be better with a little more layering, but it's still fine
- m9-16,etc.: Current layering is ok, but since this section comes up again later in the song, maybe change the patterns a bit for variety. Suggestion: since the piano plays mostly chords, try adding some jumps to those chords.
- m17,etc.: don't see why a jack should belong in these parts
- m20,etc.: missed a 48th where the piano plays a small grace note
- m22,30: second 16th needed?
- m48: the last jack here shouldn't exist; listen to piano melody again
- m62,64: missing jumps at the start of these measures, according to your layering
- m69: missed a 16th near beginning of measure

summary: Cool file with some minor errors. Fun to play. Also, difficulty is more like an 8 or 9 rather than a 6.



Disconnected -Hyper- / Inspector K / bob bob
rating: [-]

- first of all, please convert .ogg to .mp3 next time
- entire simfile has very simplistic layering; many sounds that you should step have been ignored (e.g. m9)
- for the parts you did step, not all of it is even accurate (e.g. m4 should be faster than 16ths)

summary: Overall, layer a lot more, and accurately too. Steps are too DDR-ish. Also, convert .ogg to .mp3.



Disregard / The Bezerker / 0
rating: [?]

- this song would only work if the 16ths are very simplistic in that the patterns would not have a lot of jacks, twists, or turns. The 16th runs at this bpm are too complex to be played enjoyably my most people
- the 8th runs that include a lot of jacks are ok in small amounts, but if they run too long, it's not fun either (e.g. m81-88)

summary: Accurately stepped overall, but most patterns are too complex at this speed.



DK2 Symphonic Rock Remix / cornandbeans / Brilliant Dynamite Neon
rating: [+]

- layering is partial throughout the whole simfile, but it is consistent, so it's fine; if you want, you can try layering more (e.g. step the main melody in addition to the drums in m1) as long as you maintain consistency
- PR is pretty good; some areas can have better PR though, such as m11, middle of m19

summary: Feels pretty nice. You can layer more if you want.



Dr. Tetris / ThePlasmas / woker-X & ClAsSiC_RoCkEr
rating: [+.]

- some parts of this simfile seems a bit overlayered, especially when it comes to 8th note runs with jumps ahd three-arrow chords. A few examples where layering can be reduced (three-arrow chords > jumps, jumps > single arrows, etc.): m2,4,21-22,29-36,73-81,97-104
- m12: pattern might be better off without jacks at this bpm
- m21: should be some 16th jumps if you're stepping jumps to percussion
- m113: forgot a few 16ths at the very end from drums

summary: Pretty fun file, but some areas seem a bit overstepped in regards to jumps and chords.



Dr0p / Ukeru / Operationstrawbarry
rating: [<]

- m1,etc.: why not step to the echoing percussion, especially in measures that feel emptier
- m21,23: not the best use of PR at the end of these measures
- m24: there should be a 16th jump here
- m41,etc.: may be better to leave the 24th percussions out and step to the 16th-run melody
- m57,77: last jump should be a single arrow
- m68,70,72,73: the pattern shouldn't suddenly be all jumps; stick with jumps on even beats

summary: Fairly accurate for the most part, but I don't see anything that would merit another version of this song in the game. The provided rating is purely on the technical aspect - the aesthetics of the simfile however doesn't stand out.



Elfin Pirate / Redsky139 / Redsky139
rating: [?]

- m11-12: flute seems to play not exactly on beat, so steps shouldn't be just 8ths
- m27: missing an 8th
- underlayering is prominent throughout simfile, such as: m11-14,31-33,42,47-53
- m27-28,32: the bursts in these measures are highly inconsistent with overall simfile difficulty

summary: Layer more, and with some better accuracy. Be more consistent with the difficulty of the simfile. Finally, the song is pretty quiet, so please increase the volume of the mp3.



Epileptic Crisis / Nightmare / qqwref
rating: [?]

- m5: should start with a jump going to the piano note)
- m8: avoid stepping a burst here
- m15: missing several 16ths
- m85: missing some 16ths
- you don't (and shouldn't) step to every buzz noise, especially if doing so creates large inconsistencies in difficulty and feels awkward. 32nd bursts at 300bpm (or 64ths at 190) is not fun in more than a small amount. Some examples: m13,20,22,27,29,32,etc.
- also, most difficult sections are followed by a much easier part that's often not fully layered such as m34-47

summary: Simfile is very inconsistent difficulty-wise, mainly because of the stark differences between easy sections and insane bursts.



Eve of the End / August Burns Red / Bolth Mannn
rating: [!]

summary: The actual steps to the simfile is missing.



Experiment / Silentoath / championanwar
rating: [+?]

- m7-8: jumps aren't necessary
- m8-15,33-40,etc.: in these sections, layering could be done better (e.g. step to the claps); the dark-sounding synth can definitely be stepped more accurately
- m16: it's better if you only step a jump to the single emphasized beat
- m31,47: don't stop stepping to the synths until it really fades out
- m36: why suddenly step repeating arrows? Try maintaining a consistent pattern.
- m61: check accuracy of the last few steps

summary: Cool song that's underlayered. The layering that's already present can be done better too.



Felys -Chaos Mix- / SHiNKA / suicidaln00b
rating: [+?]

- m5-7: step 8ths to the gaps since the xylophone instrument is still playing
- m10-12: it's better to step to the drums rather than placing jumps at emphasized percussion
- m13-14,etc.: 16ths missing in many places
- m15,17: measure should start off with 32nds
- m17-24: again, place jumps to drums
- m26: awkward pattern, especially with the jack
- m27-34: jumps don't make much sense; step to the melody as well
- m36-37,etc.: during these 16th runs, layer to the drums/percussion as well
- m83-86: change bpm to account for the slowdown in the tempo of the melody

summary: Patterns and layering just doesn't seem to really shine. Also, take the changing bpm at the end into account. Do we really need another remix of this song?



Floating Hour / paraoka feat. haru*nya / bmah
rating: [#]

summary: A simfile of VC difficulty. Weird name.



Floating Through Time / The Flashbulb / Bluearrowll
rating: [?]

- syncing is very bad
- m2,etc.: piano may sometimes play grace notes, so take this to account
- m10,12: missed jump on piano chord
- m21,25: 8th jump should be a single arrow

summary: Redo the entire syncing. As for the steps, PR could be better in some places. Step accurately to grace notes.



Flower Forever / DJ Sharpnel / TK_pavonineukon
rating: [+.]

- m7-8,80: step to the drumroll
- m17: you probably misstepped this measure
- song and several patterns become quite repetitive; can you vary the patterns a bit more (e.g. m18-31) and cut the song too?
- m48,97: awkward 16th pattern going to the drumrolls
- m49: drumroll is faster than 16ths here
- m140: placeholder arrow unnecessary

summary: The song is pretty nice, and the steps are good, but it gets rather stale, so edit the song first.



Frühlingsrauschen / C. Sinding / Xandertrax
rating: [+.]

- m1-2,etc.: Since this is a piano solo piece, you shouldn't ignore the main melody, so step jumps throughout simfile where appropriate unless it's inconvenient (e.g. m5). Sometimes you do this, but not completely (e.g. m30)
- m16,47: missed a 16th

summary: Layer and step the piano more fully. Right now, simfile is similar in playing style to Black Key Etude. Also would be nice if mp3 is a bit louder.



Greensleeves / David Nevue / woker-X
rating: [-]

- not a fan of the syncing that causes green arrow syndrome, despite the fact that it's a gimmick that pays tribute to the song name
- m35-36,etc.: misplaced and missed a few arrows to piano notes; actually, this area marks a major offsyncing of the arrows

summary: Two things: green-arrow gimmick is pointless, and major syncing problems starting about halfway through the song.



Gun Sounds / Serpento / -Barista-
rating: [+?]

- m6,etc.: some 8ths are stepped to nothing
- m7,11,19,etc.: throughout the song, watch out for incomplete layering
- m10,17,25,etc.: watch out for 16ths that shouldn't exist
- m30-36: the tone to the gun noises here actually differ a bit and so not every arrow should be repeated
- m64-65: drumroll adds to the tension - make this part more climatic

summary: The steps play ok, but on closer inspection, the layering is sloppy with missed steps and nonexistant ones. Also doesn't really feel much like an FMO to me. Cool concept to the song though.



Halloweenies / cornandbeans / _.Spitfire._ + Flaming_Dingleberry
rating: [+?]

- m2: stepping to the sound effect needed?
- m4,etc.: random 32nd pattern to up the difficulty of the simfile isn't the choiciest thing to do
- m6: jacks are pretty random
- m18-19: underlayered

summary: The 32nd patterns seem like a very artificial way of making this file an FMO. A few areas are comparatively underlayered as well.



Hello Mr. Tree / The Flashbulb / Vote4Nixon
rating: [?]

- out-of-sync steps everywhere. Pretty much any 16th is an offsync arrow that should be a 12th or 24th instead. Learn the rhythm of a swing beat.
- m9: unnecessary additional 16th
- m9,12.20,24,etc.: a few places are missing 24ths to percussion
- incredibly repetitive song

summary: The big problem here are the offsync arrows, which are almost all 16ths. After fixing this, there are little issues, save for repetition.



Hey Hey Monkey / DJ Sharpnel / _.Spitfire._
rating: [+]

- m1,etc.: missing an 8th jump going to drums in these sections
- m16: last jump should be a single arrow; synth disappears here
- m73-88: you should cut this part of the song out; song gets old

summary: Minor issues at beginning of simfile. Cut the last bit of the song and you should be good to go.



Holy Funkin Shiz! / Metaljonus / Cyanite
rating: [+?]

- m1,6,etc.: I'd advise not to step the extremely quiet sounds of hitting the strings throughout this song. Instead, layer more to the drums, especially starting on m13
- m4: step this measure!
- m12,57: pattern doesn't quite follow the guitar struts
- m33-34: pattern can be varied a bit more
- m37-44: make sure arrows are on sync to guitar, especially when transitioning to the next measure
- m45-52: again, check arrows on syncing accuracy; this part really shows that you should layer more (drums!)
- steps end abruptly; fade out the song earlier or step to the end of the mp3

summary: Layer the simfile more, especially on the drums. Check to see if the guitar solo in the middle is on sync. Those are the two big things.



Identity / S.S.H. / DarkZtar
rating: [+.]

- have consistent jump patterns with guitar melody in the beginning (around up to m37)
- m41,43: excess jumps
- m76: missed an 8th at end of measure
- m123,129,234-238,etc.: sure the steps may be accurate, but it's really out of place in terms of overall difficulty. For the length of the song, this is a headache.
- m124: missed an 8th jump
- m170: missed a 16th
- m201: misplaced arrow near end of measure
- m337: missed an 8th


summary: For the length of the song, actual errors are minimal. But most of the patterns are endless 8th jumpstreams, with little to leave for the imagination, save for a few isolated hard spots that are guaranteed to cause frustration due to the song length. You've already edited the song, but please edit more - many parts repeat, so this is certainly doable.



Identity pt. 2 / S.S.H. / SHK
rating: [+?]

- m1-10: stream is boring; layering should be apparent, especially as m7 kicks in
- m19: missed an 8th jump
- m22-29,etc.: stepping to the percussion that goes to 16th beats is not recommended IMO; it's quite minor compared to, say, the drums. You can try the pattern once or so, but please don't do 16th jumpstreams for the whole song.
- m78: try a jump at the beginning of the 16th stream

summary: Steps are fun to play, but unfortunately, song shouldn't be dominated by 16th jumpstreams going to minor percussion sounds.



If / Crush / Xandertrax
rating: [+]

- m33: try a jump at beginning of measure
- m34-44: why not step to the bass drums as well? Also can use some 16ths at m44.
- m61-67,69-84: would be fun if you stepped to the snare drums
- m68: missed a 16th from synth

summary: Could be more fun with a little more layering, but the file difficulty can get away with that if you wish to have it remain that way.



I'm A Raver (D'nB) / ZeRo-BaSs / IgroMAN
rating: [-]

- file would not be an FMO+, so hands and quads cannot do
- m3,etc.: only one instrument playing at a time, so jump is not justified
- m5: jumps not PR to the melody
- m8,etc.: 32nds missing to the dnb beat all over the file
- m9,17,etc.: what's with the 64ths?
- m12: missing 4th note on piano
- m13: layering to drums?
- m13-21: most of the 32nd arrows aren't justified to the music
- m23-25: underlayered

summary: Quads/hands, bad PR, underlayered and overlayered at parts, offsync 64ths, etc. Nice try.



I'm Sick of Uprock / Orange Dust / Patashu
rating: [+]

- m7,11,15: last 16th inaudible to me; unnecessary detail?
- m18,22,28,30: add a jump at the beginning of 32nds to complete the layering of the bass, melody, or drums
- m62: 32nd pattern at end of measure should be faster than 32nds
- m68: optionally you might want to step the other melody playing here
- m69: 32nd needed?
- m70,72: missed a 4th to hi-hat
- m112: last jump better as a single arrow

summary: Cool file. Minor stuff that doesn't really affect the simfile.



Islamey / M. Balakirev / Xandertrax
rating: [+?]

- the dynamics/loudness of this piano piece varies a lot, and some parts are very quiet. Could you increase the mp3 volume a bit?
- m16,40,42: lone jumps? Either put more jumps (there are several chords) or remove them
- m23-26: the whole section should technically be a running 24th stream, but it's acceptable
- m39,41: piano sounds less jacky than these measures play
- m75: last jumps better as a single arrow

summary: This file is technically A-OK, but it doesn't play feasibly well (m44-58!). Definitely caters to the best players.



It's Only Natural / The Higher / bluguerrilla
rating: [+.]

- m7-14,32-39: IMO it feels better with slightly more layering, particularly the emphasized drums in places you didn't step at all
- m15-20,40-45: you'd think it would be better to step the vocals here instead of the congas, but it is consistent though
- m21,46: just 8ths? How about the background drums and percussion?
- m30,51: try adding jumps to the emphasized drums
- m56,95-96: there is a slight separation of the drum hits on most of the 32nd jumps - sync to that
- m77: missed a 32nd
- m94: see comment on m56, except these are on 8th and 4th jumps

summary: Fun overall, but feels underlayered. Not everything has to be, but there are many parts that just begs for more layering.



Jazzman / KgZ / Cyanite
rating: [+.]

- simfile doesn't feel anything like an FMO/FGO, so hands and quads may have to go
- m2-4,etc.: for aesthetics, turn some jumps into quick gallops that follow the grace notes that's typical of piano jazz
- m17: don't hear the last two arrows
- m22-23: missed some 16ths going to the piano
- m25,29: down-arrow jack not PR to melody

summary: Mainly just syncing some arrows that go to grace notes and removing hands/quads. Fun.



Kirby 64 - Forest / MasterJace / Xandertrax
rating: [+]

- m2: arrows are 4ths if you sync this part better

summary: Relaxing and easy.



Kirby Gourmet Race / ThePlasmas / Xandertrax
rating: [+?]

- m10: I don't hear any 16ths
- m12,20,140,etc.: drumrolls are 16ths, not 24ths. 24th trill isn't the choicest pattern anyways. Some drumroll patterns even start too early, such as m24.
- m28: missed a 4th jump in the 16th run
- m40: 16th jump missing; should create jacks (m48 is similar but doesn't have the 16th)
- m42: 16th jump nonexistant
- m48: misstepped 16th pattern near end of measure
- m113: sync to guitar better - shouldn't be an 8th jump
- m125-132: step more of the bass melody. You do so later, but the patterns are completely misstepped (m130-132)
- first part of song loops exactly the same, and steps are similar, so it's better to cut mp3 around m55-104

summary: almost all of the 24ths are unjustified (except for places like m124) and should be actually 16ths. Many other errors throughout song. Also, middle part of song can be easily cut.



Koisuru VOC@LOID / OSTER project feat. Hatsune Miku / bmah
rating: [#]

summary: Medium-difficulty song. Could be harder but I wanted something middle-of-the-road.



La Plume De Ma Tante! / Bong-Ra / irionman+samurai7694+Kommisar[os]
rating: [+]

- m26: slight misstepping near beginning of measure
- m27: missed single arrow to percussion
- m33: single sound better as a single arrow
- m38: 32nd and 16th missing
- m58: 24th jump an error?
- simfile cuts off suddenly

summary: For what the file is right now, it's stepped very well, but do something about the ending. Fade-out, finish stepping the whole song, etc.



Last Battle (Final Fantasy 4) / S.S.H. / Shadow 1800
rating: [-]

- m2-3,24,etc.: PR could be better
- m4: please double the BPM at this point. The song definitely asks for it.
- m6,8,etc.: would be fun if you stepped the organ playing 16ths
- m8-12: enormous underlayering
- m18: example of misstepping drums
- many other errors matching similar descriptions

summary: Well. It's a start. But you need to layer to a lot more sounds, correct erroneous steps, and have a wider variety of patterns than 16th runs on left and right-arrow jacks.



LONLY LONLY / DJ Sharpnel / sc979
rating: [+.]

- m25: layer to the drums
- m101-115: you could definitely layer more here - 16ths to the synths in your 8th-note runs and 4ths to even-beat drums in emptier measures

summary: Very repetitive steps, but formulaic in a way that it's hard to go wrong.



Magical 8bit Tour / YMCK / jimerax
rating: [+]

- m41: step to 8th-beat percussions
- m83: missed an 8th jump
- m90: a jump will do rather than a quad

summary: Nearly flawless technically, and fun. I just wonder if those 32nd trills is the best idea...nevertheless, I'd hit it either way.




memories / KURi-ZiLL / bmah
rating: [#]

summary: Not to be confused with the one already in-game, this is a slow and easy simfile. Obviously not layered to the fullest.



Metropolis 8-bit / ParagonX9 / Operationstrawbarry
rating: [?]

- m2: 32nd jumpstream would be more fun
- m3-10: almost all of the 16th triples are out of sync by a 16th beat, or is nonexistant. Listen to percussion again.
- m11-13,17: several misplaced jumps to the music
- m18,50,82: 24ths don't sync to the buzz noises, not that you should step them anyways
- m34: 24ths only four notes long, not seven
- m38,46,86: would be nice if you layered to the melody still during the 16th run
- m50,65: missed 8th jump
- m51-57,99-: some 16ths missing and some nonexistant to percussion; however, you should probably step the melody instead of the percussion
- m98: missed a 16th

summary: Plentiful errors that probably resulted from carelessness. Check your syncing of some rhythms more closely and watch for nonexistant/extraneous arrows. Song gets a bit old after a while.



Mnk / Raymond (Dj Goon) / Operationstrawbarry
rating: [?]

- m1-2,16-19,58-60: many of the 12ths/24ths are misplaced to the synth melody
- m3-4,etc.: pretty much every second triplet of 16ths in these sections are misplaced to the percussion
- m71-101: majority of the 12ths/24ths don't exist; many are stepped to 16th noises instead
- m104-106,108-109: why put jumps?

summary: Just like the Metropolis file, there are a lot of errors that can easily have been corrected if you listen carefully. Misplaced 12ths/24ths or 12ths/24ths that should be 16ths are common errors.



Moonlight / Leonid / megamon88
rating: [+]

- the bpm of the speed-up parts are technically incorrect, but it'll do
- m38-42: trills don't seem too appealing, but it's not bad either

summary: Pretty straightforward. Good.



Mourning Heart Interlude / Ensiferum / Bluearrowll
rating: [?]

- however you've synced this song, several areas aren't synced correctly according to the arrow colors (e.g. m3).

summary: There doesn't seem to be much in this file to offer. The patterns themselves are ok but sometimes stagger unnecessarily. Fix the syncing.



Multicore / Anth0n / Mr. Nothing
rating: [?]

- m2,59: incomplete layering
- m4,6: a few jumps are mistepped to the melody
- m11-18,etc.: pattern is boring and not very PR
- simfile overall lacks variety. Patterns repeat over and over again. Perhaps you can induce variety by stepping some other instruments like percussion that goes in 16th triples.

summary: Patterns are incredibly unintuitive and mostly copy-paste.



Nice Guys Finish Last / Adamaja456 / Adamaja456+mac attack
rating: [--]

summary: entire simfile is synced badly as indicated by colorful arrows and general inconsistency of syncing. Start by figuring out the correct bpm first.



Nitro Panic! / Kommisar / Coolboyrulez0 & Xandertrax
rating: [+?]

- m1-12: jacks match song, but really doesn't play out too well
- m46-48,50-52,54: 32nd trill patterns even less feasible than the previously mentioned patterns

summary: Steps are accurate per se, but not fun, thanks to some ridiculous sections. Also repetitive to some degree, but that's hardly a problem.



Northern Lights / 403 / 0
rating: [+.]

- m3,5,7: missing a 4th and/or 16th in each measure from guitar melody
- m6,14,17: other measures that typically have missing 16ths or 4ths
- m8: there probably should've been a 16th jump here
- m19: missed an 8th jump at end of 16th run
- m45: nonexistant 16th
- m62,69,71,99,101: missing some 8th jumps from incomplete layering
- m72,107: shouldn't have an 8th jump according to lyrics
- m108-109: 16th pattern incorrect
- m118: missed an 8th jump

summary: Several errors, but they're not too noticeable. Generally incomplete layering. Fun song.



Now You're Gone / Basshunter / championanwar
rating: [+?]

- m6,56: extraneous arrows according to lyrics
- m10-34,62-86: not all 4ths have to be jumps; you can differentiate by listening to alternating drums and claps, and lyrics
- m27,30-33: missing a few 12ths going to percussion
- m43,52: would be nice if you layered the oncoming drums as well
- m54,72: missed 4th jump
- m69: missed a 12th
- m62-86: since this is a chorus repeat, make things a little different. How about stepping the continuous running 12th synths?

summary: Not bad, but some noticeable errors, and the patterns get repetitive a bit. Also, I don't mind the 12th jacks, but others might.



Nu-Island / KgZ / Silvuh
rating: [+?]

- I know you didn't want to layer everything in order to tone down the difficulty, but playing through the whole chart, it's a bit more difficult than a typical easy file, so you might as well make the song harder and layer more. A few examples:
m4: layer tinkling percussion
m5-22: layer the drums and other percussion along with melody
m37-44: layer more piano notes and the oncoming percussion
m66: incomplete layering of piano solo
m92: incomplete layering of synth melody

summary: Song is a bit hard if you consider this an easy file, yet feels rather skimpy too because of the layering. IMO, making the file slightly more difficult with more layering is the way to go.



Of Course you Need and nEed and neEd and neeD and NEED ME / t+pazolite / Kommisar[os]
rating: [+]

- m18,22,26,30,46,140,156: 8th jump missing
- m34,42,144,152: 8th missing near end of respective measure
- m40,150: jumps in middle of measure actually 16th triples
- m47,158: missing some 16ths going to voice sample
- m101: 32nds missing near beginning and end of measure
- m138: 16ths missing

summary: Fun and relatively clean file, but fix the above errors! File is for those who love fast songs.

summary: Incredibly layered, unfun file with mainly three-chord hands and more arrows going to buzz noises. Having this file in the game for FGO AAAers is, although very hard, highly unrewarding.



Phanta! / t+pazolite /

_.Spitfire._
rating: [+?]

- too long and mp3 can be cut easily. Naturally, patterns also get old.
- m34,etc.: in some of these sections, there are various emphasized beats, so some jumps might be better off as single arrows
- m67,etc.: I don't hear the last yellow 16th in each measure. Also, why don't you step the rap vocals later on too? Repetitive.
- m103,etc.: incomplete layering
- m196,etc.: overlayered with a lot of hands

summary: Stepping is technically correct almost everywhere, but: 1) Too long. Cut song. 2) Very repetitive. Vary patterns more. 3) Overlayered in many places. Overall, the simfile doesn't feel like an FMO, save for the song length. Get rid of hands and quads.



Pleasant Farmer / Jea / stavie33
rating: [?]

- m1-16: the chains of repeated arrow pattern is more appropriate elsewhere. Not the best patterns here
- m1,etc.: the percussion throughout the song should create a group of five 16ths, not three
- m17-28: underlayered; noticeable contrast in difficulty
- m52,56,60,etc.: missing 8th going to drums
- m62-64,94-96: combination of jumpstream + bursts is really unfun
- m97-127: insanely repetitive with unbearable jumpstream; at the very least you could've varied the layering and make anything more interesting

summary: Repetitive song that should be cut for sure. Retarded patterns in many places, but the last part of the song definitely takes the cake. Please also induce some variety into the steps.



Prelude No. 7 / Frederick Chopin / Xandertrax
rating: [+]

- m1,7: first up arrow should be a jump according to piano chord (lol how could you've missed this?)

summary: Short and sweet. But I'm itching for you to fix the above error! >:0



Primitivism / Glome / CyclopsDragon
rating: [+.]

- why not step the beginning of the song?
- m4,5,etc.: 16th/32nd jacks not the best choice of patterns to use, however accurate it may be to the drums
- m34-40,etc.: again, 16th jumps creating some pretty awkward patterns
- m42,etc.: according to your layering, these sections have incomplete layering from drums
- m53-54,etc.: strange jacks creating awkward patterns

summary: Would be nice if you could change some patterns to make it a bit less awkward and jacky. But it's actually pretty accurate overall and rather interesting.



Radiant Moonlight / MSXOmega / Bluearrowll
rating: [+?]

- m2-13: many 16ths missing to the synth
- m14-21: 8th pattern a little stale; maybe add a few 16ths?
- m22: second trill pattern starts a tad too early
- m61,65-66,68,82: incomplete layering; layering also a bit funny at m66

summary: Straightforward (albeit generic) file; PR is ok; noticeable incomplete layering.



Rage Template / Dev/Null / _.Spitfire._
rating: [+.]

- m7: extraneous left-down jump
- m15,etc.: no 32nd up arrow nor the following 16th right arrowt+pazol exists
- m16,92,etc.: burst that goes to a warped noise near end of measure not really justified
- m25,etc.: not a fan of three-arrow jacks at this bpm
- m65,69: 16th missing near beginning of measure
- m68: first 16th up arrow nonexistant
- m86: 32nd jump nonexistant
- m95-114: underlayered, especially in contrast with previous section; try stepping to background synths and hi-hats
- m119: left-right jump needed?

summary: It's pretty fun, but just be careful in knowing what sounds you're actually stepping. Helps to discern the differences in 0.3x - 0.5x speed.



RAIN / t+pazolite / _.Spitfire._ & bluguerrilla
rating: [+]

- m61: 24th pattern pretty wacky; care to make a better-flowing pattern?

summary: Typical gabba with lots of 12ths. Steps are fine.



Rain / YMCK / Brilliant Dynamite Neon & Kommisar[os]
rating: [+]

- m44-45: misstepped some jumps
- m48: first right-arrow 16th nonexistant
- m69: down-left jump should be single arrow
- m72: down-up jump should be single arrow
- m75-77: empty parts still have trills running, which you may want to step if you like
- m79: missed a 16th
- m85: should be 32nd trills here
- m86,89: a few extraneous arrows here, namely 12ths/24ths

summary: Long song, but consistent, fun, and challenging. There's a few errors but they don't detract from the overall quality of the steps.



-Razor_Blade- / customstuff / customstuff
rating: [?]

- m7,9-11,13,15,17,27,29: incomplete layering
- m20,22: obvious 24ths missing
- m31: 24th trills not PR
- m35-36: too many jumps here
- m40: last 12th jack should be an up arrow
- m41-44: some jumps go to nothing
- m46: 12ths should still be layered on the 8th jumps; fast rolls start earlier
- m51-73: patterns extremely repetitive
- m73: shouldn't have repeated arrows according to PR

summary: It starts out ok, but there are several layering errors and the last third of the song is highly repetitive and boring.



Red Wings Over Baron (FFIV Medley) / Powerglove / bluguerrilla & HighAndr0id
rating: [+?]

- m9-10: 24th up arrows nonexistant
- m14-22: step guitar more accurately; offsync in some places (e.g. right before m15 or m16)
- m37-40: incorrect steps; drums not playing to that many 16ths; also, layer the guitar melody more
- m45: more jumps for guitar melody?
- m56-58: incorrect steps; guitar and drums not playing to that many 16ths; also, there should be 12ths/24ths near end of m57 instead of a 32nd
- m67: start off with a jump
- m72,75: some 16ths nonexistant
- m78: incomplete layering
- m80,98,110,214,245: step more accurately to drums
- m95-96: optionally, you might want to step some quick bursts according to orchestral strings
- m152: needs better PR
- m165,209: forgot a jump
- m168-170: should be all jumps according to your previous layering
- m178-182: some 8ths should be removed; ignore unimportant hi-hats
- m185: incomplete layering
- m198: step more accurately to guitar
- m199: would be fun if you stepped to drumroll; you should offset the timing with a pause so that the oncoming section won't have 8th arrows on 4th-note beats
- m238-242,275-281: don't hear all those 16ths
- m253,257: should be 16ths near the end, not 12ths/24ths

summary: Extremely long song, but it's varied enough to keep people playing the whole way through. However, there are still too many errors. Keep on going!



ReMotion Remixed / ZooSafari / Xandertrax
rating: [+.]

- m33-40: 16th jumps doesn't seem justified to music; layer differently

summary: Technically consistent step-wise. Some repeating 8th patterns in the middle feel a little strange. Steps are really repetitive though, due to the song's nature.



Saddest Remix / Cor de la Drem / Kommisar[os]
rating: [+]

- m43: jump unnecessary
- m65: forgot a 4th between the three-arrow hands

summary: Awesome job.



Secret Zombie Room V2 / For Great Justice! / unkdavar
rating: [+?]

- m1-2: you should try to step the beginning of the song
- m3,5-8,25-34,57-64: underlayered; layer more the main melody, bass synths, and/or percussion
- m11,19,36,39,41: incomplete layering
- m20: last 16th nonexistant
- m44: 16th pattern not consistent with your previous patterns

summary: Better than the original version, but it's still quite underlayered.



Sexperation / Virt / bmah
rating: [#]

SELF-NOTE: m33 has a 32nd, m41 has a 16th

summary: 80s song with Virt's own vocals.



Ska de Chocobo!! / Glome / RedOrigami
rating: [+]

- m5: one extraneous 16th
- m45-50: you should acknowledge the main melody here; also, forgot some jumps on cymbal crashes
- m53,55: missed a 16th on the drums

summary: Pretty good. Some technical errors; middle part of simfile a little boring. Steps are similar to the other simfile in this batch.



Ska de Chocobo!! / Glome / TC_Cyrenics + bmah
rating: [#]

summary: Simfile originally stepped solely by TC_Cyrenics. Helped him to the point where it's sufficient to call this a collab. Coincidentally, steps are very similar to the other one in this batch.



Slashfic / Dr. 1010 (Hearts) / OperationStrawbarry
rating: [?]

- m1-7: not fully stepping to synths; need more 16ths
- m9-16: not quite sure what you're stepping to - the drums/percussions or the background melody; either way, layering is incomplete; also, there shouldn't be 24ths
- m17-32,etc.: stepping is pretty linear if you add jumps to the whole melody; it's more interesting if you layer other sounds as well
- m17,etc.: some patterns are inconsistent (e.g. single 8ths vs 8th jumps)
- m32: jumps are misstepped
- m33,etc.: buzz noises don't justify 12ths and 24ths
- m48: missed a few 16ths jumps; however, this would lead to many jacks if you keep the current pattern
- m66,74: too many 16ths
- m84: 16ths start earlier

summary: Simfile suffers from stepping jumps to every note of the melody without layering anything else, as well as some easily preventable errors.



Slaytronic / Bong-Ra / Vote4Nixon
rating: [+]

- m22: 16th drums more justified than 32nds that go to a faint buzz noise
- m35,59,etc.: throughout the song, there are a few 4th/8th jumps missing. Many of them begin on a 16th stream (m35), but it's not always the case (m59).
- m42: last 8th arrow unnecessary
- m68: missed a 16th

summary: Only thing is really adding more jumps to the drums. Fun to play.



Slow Down / A-OK / Xandertrax
rating: [+?]

- m6-12,14-20: repeated jumps are ok, but it might be just as good to step the drums and percussion too
- m5,13,21-29,55-70: layer more to percussions and drums
- m30: technically wrong PR
- m33,37,41,45: forgot 8th jump

summary: I feel this is too underlayered in some places. Also is repetitive like crazy.



Smash Podcast / Jihnsius / Coolboyrulez0
rating: [+.]

- m1-4: would be great if you stepped the beginning
- m9-24: could have a better 8th pattern that's more PR
- m26-28,etc.: better if you layer the percussion as well
- m45: could have better PR

summary: Not too bad. Thing that sticks out the most is the bad PR in the first half of the song.



So Sexy Robotnik / Powerglove / SKG_Scintill
rating: [+?]

- m7,10-17,35-38,etc.: most jumps aren't needed
- m9: don't need the 16ths
- m22,26,29,96,100-102: guitar very weakly justifies 16ths; they don't feel necessary
- m34: there shouldn't be that many 16ths
- m40,42: 32nds unjustified; at most, there may be 16th jumps
- m47-52,etc.: there are definitely better patterns than jumptrills; layering also incomplete
- m80-83: too many 16ths
- m88,90: missed a few 12ths
- m94: 16ths not needed
- m96: 32nd should be a 12th
- m120,124,128: 12th hand misplaced
- m170-192: should be single arrows

summary: Interesting, but many areas could have better patterns. Also didn't like 16ths in certain places.



South Paw (Koshien Version) / DJ Sharpnel / ~HentaiXXX~
rating: [-]

summary: Simfile offsync resulting in mainly 12ths or 24ths. Highly underlayered as well, and also includes some unreasonable jack patterns.



Stai With Me / Nuq&Skip Productionz ft. Louey Checkmate / -Barista-
rating: [+?]

- m2-10: underlayered; try stepping some synths you missed
- m11-33,51-65,etc.: I don't seem to understand some of the 16ths you've added. Some go to lyrics, while others flow to either inaudible or nonexistant sounds/lyrics. Some 16ths are missing too from drums or percussion (e.g. m12,33).
- m34-43,45-48,etc.: incomplete layering on drums and percussion; some inconsistencies present (e.g. m38)

summary: Many 16ths aren't stepped accurately to the lyrics. There are many places that have unnecessary 16ths or too many of them. Also, layering could be better.



Star Of Andromeda / sun3 / bmah
rating: [#]

summary: Remix of Andromeda from IIDX and Casket of Star from Touhou.



Sunny Funny Chiny / t+pazolite / _.Spitfire._
rating: [+.]

- m60: missed an 8th
- m91-94: would be better if you had more 16ths to synths
- m99-114: feels a bit empty; layer more? (e.g. hi-hats)
- m144: extraneous 8th jump

summary: Steps are fine, but song is really repetitive especially towards the end (and so are the steps). In terms of difficulty, the simfile doesn't feel like an FMO, so if that's the case, hands and quads may have to be removed.



Sunset / SolusLunes / Bolth Mannn
rating: [!]

summary: The actual steps to the simfile is missing.



Sunset Dept. / The Flashbulb / CyclopsDragon
rating: [+.]

- m4: misplaced some arrows in middle of measure
- m6,9,11,12: don't hear one of the 16ths
- m7,13: missed a 16th
- m11: jacks may not be exactly 16th notes
- m14: a few 12ths/24ths missing
- m27: 32nd should be a 24th
- m28: 24th jacks are a rather unfitting pattern
- m35: first and last arrows of measure should be jumps

summary: Interesting file; just missing a few sounds here and there.



Super Spy Hunter / Saskrotch / who_cares973
rating: [+]

- doesn't feel like an FMO except for the very end of the song; hands needed?

summary: Steps are fine. It's only a question of whether the simfile's hard enough as an FMO to warrant hands.



Swallowing an Avalanche (New Mix) / Nosrac / Bynary Fission
rating: [+.]

- m2-8,etc.: there's at least one extraneous 16th in every measure that doesn't exist;
- m35,37,etc.: missed a 4th at beginning of measure; extraneous 4th near end of measure
- m49: check the steps here; misinterpreted a lot of things
- m106: don't need a placeholder arrow at the end

summary: Fun drum'n bass song. However, there are a lot of nonexistant 16ths littered throughout the whole simfile. A few missed steps as well.



Tageri / Sabrepulse / TC_Halogen
rating: [+?]

- m7,31: missed a 16th
- m27,30,33: missed a 4th
- m34-38,62-63,77,79,82-84: missed a lot of steps, mainly on drums
- m49: last 32nd not needed
- m68: jump on the emphasized 4th?
- m71: extraneous 8th
- m87-89,91: step more to percussions
- m93: should be more 32nds
- m108-109: one-handed trills not the best patterns to use
- m111-119,121-125,127: feels underlayered; check over these parts carefully
- m121: fun if you added more jumps to emphasized drums
- m127: last arrow should be an 8th

summary: Another fun dnb song; many little things missing throughout the song. Also feels underlayered near the end.



The Duck Grinder / Powerglove / samurai7694
rating: [+]

- m5: missed an 8th jump
- m65-66: missed a few 8ths
- m69-71: perhaps layer to drums as well
- m75,78-79: don't hear the 16ths
- m79-83: perhaps layer to drums instead of simply repeating jumps here
- m87: jump at cymbal crash
- m109: redo steps that go to the drums

summary: Fun. Only minor errors.



Time To Eye / sun3 / bmah
rating: [#]

summary: My rather dumpy file. I like it, but the song results in one part resulting in an inconsistent difficulty.



TizAshura / Jon Brownell / Vote4Nixon
rating: [+.]

- m3-4,etc.: steps are good, but optionally, you might want to take the other background melody into account, especially if this section repeats later.
- m9: misplaced a 32nd and missed a few 32nds as well in the slowdown section
- m9,11,30.: missing some 16ths going to the melody
- m13-14,22-23,32: missing some arrows from layering percussion
- m20-21: speedup is silly

summary: Nothing much except for the absence of stepping some percussion sounds.



Twist / championanwar / Vote4Nixon
rating: [+?]

- the steps appear to cater to a difficulty 6-7 file. I still think that additional layering is preferable. Step to some percussion (e.g. m5) and rolling click noises (e.g. m9).
- PR is questionable at many places throughout song, such as m10,14,34,38,etc.
- m16: feels a lot better if this section is all 8th jumps. Also missed a 4th after the 32nd roll.
- m19,20,22,etc.: incomplete layering of piano/xylophone

summary: As an easier file, it would've been ok, but there are still too many issues regarding incomplete layering and poor PR.



Ultema, the Perfect Body (PSy Mix) / Glome / CyclopsDragon
rating: [?]

- m2: step the beginning
- song patterns throughout the song completely unintuitive, even for easy steps

summary: Steps are easy, but they're mostly just copy-paste 8th patterns.



Under the Clearest Blue Skies / Kommisar / dooty_7
rating: [?]

- m7-8: most jumps should be single arrows
- m24: watch the PR
- m24-28,31,34: incomplete layering

summary: Appropriate easy song, but incomplete layering is noticeable enough to be a bother.



Usatei / myu314/BeatMARIO / Bynary Fission
rating: [?]

- m7: missed an 8th jump
- m9: 32nd bursts start earlier
- m19-50: steps to the voice sample are amusing, but it gets a bit long and ridiculous; you could do some layering through this whole part
- m54,63,etc.: 24ths and 32nds aren't well justified and their patterns are awkward too

summary: Not crazy about stepping solely to the voice samples. Also, the last part of the song is overdone and awkward.



Vah-Jay-Jay / Psychostick / dore
rating: [+]

summary: At 10 seconds long, is there really much to say? Song itself is lol.



Versatile / KgZ / Xandertrax
rating: [+.]

- m21-23,25-31,etc.: layer a bit more, perhaps to the background piano like you did in m20 (add 16ths?)
- m33-47: incomplete layering when you take into account the piano; layering more might be better
- m63: missed an 8th jump
- m64: missed some 16ths at end of measure
- m81,83,85,87: missed 4th jumps; refer to beginning of song to maintain consistency

summary: Very fun to play. I just have a few suggestions in terms of layering and consistency.



Warren / The Flashbulb / who_cares973
rating: [+?]

- occasional PR issues throughout simfile (e.g. m2-3)
- incomplete layering throughout simfile; step as you would if you played this piece on piano
- syncing is ok, but might be a little off in some places

summary: Main issue is the incomplete layering. It's easy to notice because the only instrument playing is the piano.



Welcome to Cyberdrome / MashedByMachines / Xandertrax
rating: [+?]

- m16,44,48,82,87,etc.: missed a 16th
- m20,77,104,107: missed a 4th
- m21-36: underlayered; step percussion
- m61-64: underlayered
- m83-84: missed a lot of 16ths going to drums
- m88: missed the 32nd pattern you usually add

summary: Many parts feel a tad underlayered. A few parts are also inconsistent.



Winter Wind Etude / Frederick Chopin performed by B. Hisamori / Xandertrax
rating: [+.]

- m14,etc.: at the end of these sections are missing 24ths/8ths.
- m19-21,etc.: some jumps missing to the main melody throughout the song, but you might want to skip this anyways; steps are hard as is
- m48: forgot a 4th jump

summary: Very technical as is, and mostly accurate, but the nature of the song results in an admittedly monotonous simfile of endless 24th streams.



Worse / Drumcorps / Xandertrax
rating: [?]

summary: Pretty unintuitive file. Jacks are ok at first, but soon realizing that jacks comprised pretty much the whole file, it just wasn't fun anymore. Jacks went on and on. Song name says all.



XP Sound Attempt / SomethingUnreal / who_cares973
rating: [+.]

- m6: check layering again (add/remove a jump)
- m27: check PR
- m27-28,35-36: missing some arrows in empty areas
- m32: missed an 8th jump
- m48: continue to layer to the "tap" noise as well

summary: Interesting song and steps. Just fix a few things here and there. Jacks are doable IMO.



Yosakoi / Cranky / -Barista-
rating: [+?]

- m3: 16th stream doesn't end in a 16th
- m6-7: incomplete layering to synth; also, why the weird 64th?
- m8,18,etc.: missed some 24ths going to drumroll
- m9: drumroll is actually 24ths until the end of the measure, where it becomes 32nds
- m11-18,etc.: 16th stream doesn't represent this part of the song at all; step something else
- m20,22: missed a 16th
- m26,40,etc.: step more accurately to flute
- m61: bad 32nd pattern

summary: The file is fun but unfortunately is far too inaccurate, with many 24ths missing to drumrolls and the flute. 16th streams doesn't do justice to the song.


Blu's Notes:
-Razor_Blade- (customstuff) {1/10} [-]
___
. k I'm sorry customstuff but this song is terrible AND there are misrhythms AND there are PR issues and I'm not sure how you managed that

========

11ELEVEN (0) {6/10} [+?]
___
. This file would be 100x better if for the intro you only put jumps to maybe snare, ignored no rhythms and don't start jumps to bass until m35
. Other than that the file is pretty solid
. 24ths in m46 should probably be a swung 16th, slow it down and double-check (just a 16th might be good enough but it's not 24ths)

========

4ME (Coolboyrulez0) {4/10} [?]
___
. m10 2nd yellow note goes to nothing, other misrhythms later in the file
. Parts of this song are very sparse, could have 8th note stream and layer in blue jumps when the horns come in in one really long blue note section
. There's a lot more you could do with this song and keep it easy like I think you want to

========

666 MPH (Vote4Nixon) {6/10} [+?]
___
. Still missing those yellow notes to BD throughout
. Some rhythms to guitar as jumps wrong
. m30 48th should be 4 notes long and start one 48th before the red note you have it starting on

========

A Battle for the Sky (Silvuh) {6/10} [+.]
___
. m48 32nds there aren't too hard to not include (and again later)
. Is this a Touhou remix?
. Overall solid mid-difficlty sim (more fun at 1.3x tho)

========

A Change of Seasons (Patashu) {7/10} [+]
___
. Good easy file, start with a jump and add 2 seconds to the song

========

A Question of Fate(Psychotik) {3/10} [-]
___
. Lots wrong with this file.
. Check layering, stream PR, layering-induced jacks, jump PR and 8th note PR
. Sometimes you need the PR and sometimes not (like with the 'triplets')
. Some ghost note issues in the stream

========

A Quick Death (who_cares973 & Coolboyrulez0) {6/10} [+?]
___
. m11 yellow before 32nds doesn't belong
. m16 missed an orange note
. Some odd pattern choices in the faster rhythms like in m21
. PR issues in jumps throughout
. m45 is annoying how it changes noises but not denomination, consider not stepping the 192nds or whatever they are at all? (other misrhythms in m45 too)
. Overall I think you left out 32nds that could be fun and missed some jumps
. Lack of PR in the 32nds (ie not trills) makes the file more tractable, needs work though

========

Aki (TK_pavonineukon) {4/10} [?]
___
. Some PR and layering issues, check it all
. Jacks that go yellow red yellow should not be jacks at all
. Ending stream could be better

========

Altered Beast (who_cares973) {5/10} [+?]
___
. Song is too short, I think, to leave out rhythms like you did
. PR issues in the jumps (m22 spec.)
. Might want to put jumps to all those loud snares, would play better

========

Angel Island Remix (Silvuh) {5/10} [+.]
___
. I think I'd prefer keynoting the jacks so you only do it to synth, not to bass drum, at least when it's jacks to BD near the synth 33331(24) instead of 33332(24) etc
. The 16th trills that should be jacks would be fine as jacks

========

Arrogant Cobbler (Kommisar[os]) {zomgfun/10} [+]
___
. kommitakular file, no complaints

========

Arrrrrr (Vote4Nixon) {4/10} [+?]
___
. Works better as an easier file but some ddr-ing of the patterns would make it more enjoyable (or at least calculated randomization instead of 222333444 etc)

========

Asteroid Run (Patashu) {6/10} [+.]
___
. Ok weird file
. m56-m59 could do JS to the bass maybe getting rid of the jumps on 2 and 4
. like what you did with the stream
. m81 don't need the first red jump
. Plays like an older file which is neat

========

Battle Theme #31 (SulferDragon) {3/10} [?]
___
. Jacks in m29 should be trills (they're actually not the same note repeated if you listen closely)
. This file would be better without putting jumps to every snare and layering the guitar with the drums (making jumps happen on guitar mostly)
. m33 shouldn't repeat as much as it does
. Some parts where you don't step the bass drum make it feel empty
. This file could be better

========

Beadumaegen (Vote4Nixon) {8/10} [+]
___
. Still think this file is spectacular

========

Black and White (Silvuh) {6/10} [+?]
___
. Would like to see a progression in layering where you layer more when more instruments come in playing the melody (and I mean a starker contrast, layering less than you do at before they come in and keeping it like you have it when they do)
. Some parts feel overstepped (parts like m20)
. Overall this file is solid but I think it could be more fun

========

Blame It on Bad Luck (bluguerrilla) {fun/10} [#]
___
. can't help but love this

========

Bouff (Patashu) {7/10} [+]
___
. m17 don't want to step those drums? I think it'd be nice if you did
. Solid, fun file

========

Bullet's P.O.V. (Vote4Nixon) {3/10} [?]

. lol pattern choice for 32nds no
. so inconsistent I don't even know where to begin, do over
. This file could be cool and fun but it's neither


Dore's Notes:
-Razor_Blade- (customstuff) [?]
m11-19 layering doesn't make musical sense, try layering cowbell over toms
m23-30ish pr is really wonky
m31ish-35 either pick good pr or fun patterns. this is neither
m35-37 jump after pink note is extraneous
m40 2222 3 3 should be 2223 3 3
m41-45 no reason for those jumps other than the ones for the crashes
m46 48th roll is completely unnecessary plus there's so much clipping that you can't hear anything anyway
m51-65 I'd use jumps for the synth melody rather than snare/bass
m65 should be a jump
m65-73 you're going for the RB chart here but those patterns are godawful, put snare on up and bass on left and it plays better
m73-end 2 3 4 23 3 32 1 would be how to do it pr


4ME (Coolboyrulez0) [+?]
m11-24 I see what you're doing, but I think it would be more fun if you stepped something else at least part of the time. try 4 bars of vocals, 4 bars of offbeats, etc
-if you want to keep it as is, m14b3-m18 should be 333322223333444 or something similar
-I feel like the rest of the file would be more fun if you somehow incorporated the vocals, especially in the blank spaces
m56 it should be straight 16ths instead of triples
-Overall, the file is fun; I just question the complete absence of vocals when there are gaping blank spaces.


11ELEVEN (0) [+.]
m46 the 24ths should be 2 32nds as in 2 43(12)
m72b1 the blue note should be a jump
m75b4-m76b2 should have jumps on the 8ths
-same thing 4 measures later
m83b4 missing a jump
-dunno whether this is fmo or not, might have to get rid of the hands
-this file isn't really fun IMO but other than the few little things there's nothing wrong with it and nothing worth a rejection


9 Piano Lesson ~Beginner~ (MahouMinachan) [+?]
-that stupid 9 thing broke my goddamn stepmania
m10 cyan note should be an up to make pr sense
m16b4 first orange note should is a missed note
-same with m17 the blue note
m19 on you should do 2123 instead of 2124 and vice versa (actually after looking at it more you should switch most of the ups and rights in this entire section)
m20 that first run should be more like 4212123
m21 4th green note should have a partner
m24 purple note should be a left
m36 take out the red note, switch up/right on the three green notes then change the last orange to up
-Interesting song, pretty good sync as far as I could tell. There's some PR work to be done throughout but the concept is solid.


A Battle for the Sky (Silvuh) [+]
-I'm not a fan of the song
-good mid-difficulty file


A Change of Seasons (Patashu) [+]
-fun, easy file, I enjoyed it
-maybe change to straight 4ths at m54 or 55 since that synth takes over


A Question of Fate(Psychotik) [?]
m19 you messed up that rhythm by a lot
m27 blue jump is unnecessary
m29 trills don't really make sense since there isn't a single trill for the rest of that stream
-the constant stream should end at m36
m39-47 check jump placement
m54 why is there a jump?
m55 and every time that pattern occurs a trill doesn't make any sense plus the jack is unnecessary
m65 blue jump is unnecessary
m88b1 should have a jump
m94-102 check jump placement like m39-47
m107b3 missing a 16th somewhere in there
m112-120 jumps and rhythms feel off


A Quick Death (who_cares973 & Coolboyrulez0) [?]
m13b2 the last 32nd note doesn't go to anything
m14b1 doesn't go to anything
-missing a 32nd right before m16
-missing a 32nd right before m17
m17 the rhythm is all wrong
extra note right before m19
m20b2 32nd note is extra
m61b4 is missing a 32nd
m67 to the end is missing a lot of notes, the 32nds should be in groups of 5 (like x-xxxxx-x-xxxxx etc)
-recheck all the rhythms, especially in the beginning. the middle seemed pretty well done


Aki (TK_pavonineukon) [+]
-jacks are kinda meh for me, I'm sure others will enjoy them
-good job overall


Altered Beast(who_cares973) [+.]
m5b1 missing a couple 16ths
m10 randomly following the melody? not that following the melody is a bad thing but it's inconsistent with the rest of the file
m17b1 missing a 16th
-not bad other than that one inconsistency and a couple little rhythmic things


Angel Island Remix (Silvuh) [+]
-your files are hard as hell to follow
-fun to play, I especially enjoyed the color trill things

Arrogant Cobbler (Kommisar[os]) [+.]
m73-75 all those yellow jumps are kinda buried, I'd layer something more obvious that actually jumps out from that mess
m91-99 could have more 16ths
m108 I'd step that rhythm instead of having a huge gap there
m123 minijack is silly
-that one loud part (m73) is the only major issue I have with the file


Asteroid Run (Patashu) [+?]
-I like most of the file. The trill to stream thing works pretty well and the second half is really fun.
-The first section (up until m29) felt really schizophrenic, and it was distracting to switch back and forth between different stuff every beat. I think the file would be more fun if you picked one style through there instead of jumping around all the time.

Battle Theme #31 (SulferDragon) [?]
m14 and every time that repeats, that pattern really sucks
m21-25 you missed a few notes if you're going to do that
-really, for the whole thing you should focus less on the drums and more on the more important stuff. as is, it's a mess to play


Black and White (Silvuh) [+?]
from m65 to the end the 16th notes are out of place, like they're sort of half-ass following the hi hat stuff but it just feels like they go to nothing
m77 and every time that pattern occurs the first grace note makes sense but the second one going to the echo doesn't work as well
-the file is fun but those sections seem a little off


Blame It on Bad Luck (bluguerrilla) [+]
m4b3 I don't like the pattern here, the 12421321 just doesn't play well in my opinion
m105b4 shouldn't that be a 12th later? check 106 too
-fun file


Bouff (Patashu) [+]
m11b4/m15b4 the guitar leads into the next measure with an 8th ote that you missed (this repeats itself throughout the file, too)
-the rest looks good



Bunny (_.Spitfire._) [?]
I feel like you could make this a fun JS file if you did the jumps with the drums instead of the synth. The synth gets buried underneath everything else going on and it'd make more sense if the JS got you into the groove of the drumbeat.
-The minijacks from m42 on are a weak excuse for that kind of pattern once you start layering other stuff in. Like before, it gets buried under all the other stuff.


C7 Funk (Xandertrax) [+?]
m5b2, m8b4, etc should only have 3 32nds
m20b4 missed a guitar 16th
m23b2 the burst should be 2 32nds then 3 48ths
m26b4 should be blue orange yellow green
m44b1 step the 24ths
m46/47 the first two bursts there should only be 3 32nds (check all the bursts towards the end)
-there are also many really quiet notes on throughout that you didn't step but they aren't necessary (just informing you in case you want to add those in)
-fun overall, just needs a little fixing

Car Sax(whocares973 vs Cyanite) [?]
m13b3 as an example, every time you have that hi hat swing rhythm it should be a 24th swing, not a 32nd swing
m39-40 missed a lot of vibe notes
-through that whole solo section all those times where you fill a gap with drums for a beat or two it feels really schizophrenic. layering a simpler drum part instead would make it feel less like it was jumping and more like it's following the groove in between the solo instruments' notes
-the concept is there in this file but fix up the polyrhythms and try making the solo section less schizo and more playable


CCUK (i love gabba) [+?]
m40 those colored notes aren't right, it's a straightforward rhythm
m41 you could step the 16ths
m43 there's a bunch of extra notes
m66 is all wrong
m102 jumptrill lasts too long
-there are a lot of places, like the m83 jumpjacks for example, that are way overstepped. You put jumps on all the snare drums which is a decent concept except that the song uses so many different snare drums to make the melody. the jumps should follow the musical accents instead of just every snare, because there's so many of them
-there are also lots of hihat rhythms in the background. a lot of them you ignored, but some of them you didn't making it inconsistent and ultimately hard to follow
-check through the file again on a low rate and check your rhythms. you don't have to step every single sound you hear but make sure the ones you do step are right on and make the rhythms consistent. the file was pretty fun but still could use plenty of work.

Chaoz Japanv2 (who_cares973) [+.]
I think this file is an overstepped piece of crap but the v1 is kinda crappy and this file is decent I guess so whatever if Tass wants to use it, he can go ahead, but if not, I don't blame him.


Chaoz Survivor (Ziergdsx18) [-]
-BNS
-the notes don't go to anything


Charging Swarm Of Mouseketeers (SulferDragon) [+?]
-best song title ever
-and by ever I mean so far in this batch
m20 and every time that pops up couldn't you step something a little more spicy?
m49 check the rhythm
m54 you missed the 16th notes that you stepped in m56, 58, etc
m85 to the end you should represent the changing pitch of the bass synth thing instead of slow trills like that


Chemical Attraction (TK_pavonineukon) [+]
I like your style
m63 and 64 are awkward compared to the rest of the file which plays really well. it's just a weird pattern and it's out of place. other than that the file is good fun


Clockwork (Xandertrax) [+.]
that got hard out of nowhere *insert immature jokes here*
m21-25 should have a jump on every 8th
m25-29 feels awkward after all the jumps went to the bass and all the snares were ignored and now the snares are the most important thing with bass in second?
m31b3 should have a grace note
m33b3 should have a grace note
repeat those two^^ the second time they appears
-overall pretty fun, just 21-29 felt really weird


Coldest Night (-Barista-) [?]
m1-13 all of those 16th notes are just echoes of the piano which you step some of them but not all of them
m25 randomly stop stepping the claps?
m28-36 use pr to separate the different sounding notes rather than jumps
m36-44 jump placement?
m44-52 same as beginning
m52-60 the concept works but the jump placement is wrong
m60-76 blue jumps for no reason?
m76-end same as 52-60


coloris (TK_pavonineukon) [+?]
I don't like the random minijacks throughout (like the section at m37 for example)
m21-29 has some rhythmic issues
m35b4 jumps?
m45-53 has rhythmic issues like before
-fun overall but those sections with the weird rhythm problems detracted a lot from the file

Colossus (Silvuh) [+.]
m12 try stepping something other than the timpani there? it gets buried under all of the other stuff
m62 you put the 8th in the wrong spot


Cook Rock Disko (_.Spitfire._) [+?]
m42-50 I don't get jump placement at all
m58 on the yellow jumps don't work for me. when the jumps go to the vocals it's fine when you're layering on top of the 8th rhythms but it feels weird if you keep the 8ths and the jumps for the vocals. also random 16ths?
m74, etc the long 8th jacks don't fit
-the file was fun but some of the stuff just didn't feel right


Corneria (cry4eternity) [+?]
-the song is a little too long for my taste
-the stream patterns were not very fun at all. if you're going to make a file in that style you've got to have fun patterns and none of that 323121323121 crap over and over (though m83 had good patterns)


Csikos Post (woker-X) [+]
PR isn't perfect or anything but the file is fun


Cybertron (megamon88 and cedolad) [?]
-jacks are really inconsistent. there are some noises that have jacks in one spot and not another a couple beats apart from each other. I think the file would be better off without the jacks for the most part, and if you're trying to make the file as hard as possible and step every jack then it won't be as fun.
-when you both the synths and snares get jumps it starts to feel overstepped and muddled. there are so many jumps in some parts that it's unclear what exactly you're following just because there's too much going on. again, I think simplicity would be better in this case


Cyclone Escape (bob bob) [+?]
-this file isn't very good at all
-it's also really fun to play for some reason
m50 and every time that occurs you should use straight 16ths instead of having that gap in between the two sets


Cynthia (Cyanite) [?]
m18-32ish the notes don't go to anything in particular
m44 should only have a couple rolls, not all 4 of them
m45ish same as before with the random rhythm thing
-the pantsstream at the end shouldn't be a consistent stream, there are breaks in there
-there were also some really unfun patterns scattered throughout


Deceitful Wings (cry4eternity) [+?]
m40 random notes?
m97-113 there are a lot of 16th notes to the ride/bd that you missed, there's no reason for a slow 8th stream
m128 wrong rhythm
m143 and every time that repeats the little 16th thing to the guitar squeal isn't rhythmically accurate but it works, I dunno if you would want to change that or not
-There are inconsistencies throughout the file where sometimes you have hands for every cymbal and sometimes you don't. I'd pick one way or another (and I'm not sure if the file is hard enough for hands, anyway, but I'm not an expert in difficulty ratings so I won't hold that against you). There are also some parts where you randomly layer in the snare when there are gaps in whatever else you are layering, which is fine except that you only do it some of the time.
m166-175 isn't rhythmically accurate at all
m177b1 should just be 8ths
m179-182 you could do more with the pr to differentiate the descending notes grouped by 2's, 3's, and 4's
m183-185 shouldn't be straight 16ths
m271-274 shouldn't have a long jack, the drums are going snare bass bass tom bass bass etc throughout there
-not bad overall but there are plenty of inaccuracies and consistency issues


Determine (Silvuh) [+]
kinda boring song but the chart is fine


DeVouR (Xandertrax) [+]
m58 extra 32nds?
m61 you ruined my jumps are for punks comment, damn
-thanks for not stepping all the 16ths at places like the end, that would have been godawful
-the title is probably going to get that ****ty Shinedown song in my head, thanks


Discocube (Brilliant Dynamite Neon) [+.]
-holy **** I got the biggest nose itch while playing through this file, dunno if it's the song's fault or what
-most of the jacks in the beginning (starting at m21ish) shouldn't be there at all
-a lot of the patterns aren't very fun
-I swear to god every jazzy kgz song has the exact same chords


Disconnected hyper file (bob bob) [-]
-it's like you took the itg chart, added in some random bad patterns and hit shuffle


Disregard (0) [+?]
-do we really have to do this?
-I mean really?
-the beginning with the 12ths and what not is all wrong, the rest is fine, I'm using that as my excuse to not accept this


DKC2 Symphonic Rock Remix (Brilliant Dynamite Neon) [+]
-fun
-I'm not sure the snare minijacks are appropriate for this difficulty level, but they work for me
-CnB songs are really loud and have way too much treble and I need to turn them down before I start playing


Dr. Tetris (woker-X & ClAsSiC_RoCkEr) [?]
-I was expecting some death metal growling, disappointing
m5-9 each of the little sets of 16ths have extra notes
-JS patterns were really fun in the first half of the file (up to m50ish)
-patterns stopped being fun after that
m74ish the layering doesn't make sense here because the synth/guitar melody has straight 8ths so if you were going to layer the melody over the drums you'd have to have straight hands the whole way. don't do that btw, figure out something else
m98 and all the places with those hand things don't make sense


Drop (OperationStrawbarry) [+?]
m24 random blue jump?
m27 and I'm sure this repeats every time the 24ths are later than they should be.
m33-41 random jump placement?
m67-74ish I don't get why there are 8th jumps half the time and not the other half, also the pr is wonky


Elfin Pirate (Redsky139) [?]
-delete your blank difficulties
-make the roll things (like ~m28) a not retarded pattern, take out a couple notes if you have to
m32 that's dumb
-pr is wonky throughout and the file was mostly boring


Epileptic Crisis (qqwref) [?]
-doubled bpm?
-lots of rhythms (especially in the bursts) are wrong, and if you're going to make a mash file with 129830912830 notes it's gotta be perfect


Eve of the End (Bolth Mannn) [!]
-.sm has no steps in it


Experiment (championanwar) [+?]
-who needs gap
-places like m23 (one of many spots) with 3 blue jumps don't make sense, stick with 2 jumps
m31 random gap?
m36 random jack thing?
-kinda fun even though there's no pr or anything


Felys -Chaos Mix- (suicidaln00b) [?]
m13-17 misrhythms all over the place
m26 horrible patterns, especially the random 24th jack thing
m27-34 you have a minijack one measure then not minijacks the next, but it's the same sound
m34 trill starts half a beat too early
m44 kinda random rhythms, they're in the music but you should probably step a more prominent 16th sound
m53 is 32nds not 24ths, you'd probably want to use a roll instead of a trill
-same thing a few measures later
m59-65 more random/wrong rhythms, plus the mini jump jacks feel out of place
m86 the last thing should be 3 notes not 4
-kinda fun but needs work


Floating Hour (bmah) [+]
-fun
-that one 24th over 16th thing took me by surprise lol


Floating Through Time (Bluearrowll) [?]
-sync is noticeably off in some spots
-PR issues (mainly in the middle)


Flower Forever (TK_pavonineukon) [?]
-boring in some places, flat out unfun in others
-poor difficulty engineering: it switches between pretty hard to really easy all over the place, and sometimes you would step a huge roll, other times you wouldn't, etc. it was just really inconsistent
-the places where you tried using pr weren't very well done


Frühlingsrauschen (Xandertrax) [+?]
-layering was pretty random, you'd just stop stepping the melody sometimes but not others, it was weird
-kinda unfun patterns imo
-sync was good


Greensleeves (woker-X) [+]
-I love what you did with the coloring
-yes yes yes <3 greensleeves


Gun Sounds(-Barista-) [+?]
-some little technical errors throughout
-not a fan of the song but the concept is pretty cool for a file, I guess


Halloweenies (_.Spitfire._ + Flaming_Dingleberry)) [+.]
m18b2 should be 4 16ths there
-32nd streams suck
-feels overlayered but whatever, I guess other people like this kind of stuff more than I do


Hey Hey Monkey (_.Spitfire._) [+]
-after hearing the preview I was like goddammit not another 12098213 bpm sharpnel dump
-but yeah, that was really fun, good patterns in the JS
-if it was a cut, it was a really tasteful cut as well. I was thinking right at the end that if the song didnt end right there I was gonna be pissed and it did and I was happy
-I really need to hit escape so I don't have to keep hearing the preview music in my headphones when I'm typing this up
-I'm gonna stop rambling now

Holy Funkin Shiz! (Cyanite) [!]
multiple difficulties


Identity [S.S.H] (DarkZtar) [?]
-so long
-so boring
-such a generic song
-rhythms/jump placement aren't perfect
-the part where you made it a giganticass chain is no fun
-the huge JS woke me up
-the whole thing really isn't fun


Identity pt 2 (DarkZtar) [+?]
-generic and way too long
-there were some really gay patterns throughout, especially with the (13)(24) repeated parts
-yay for 230293 minute long JS
-slightly more tolerable than part 1


If (Xandertrax) [+.]
-the song runs a bit long, I think you could end it before the last repetition of the chorus (maybe just cut ahead to the ending fadeout or something, I dunno)
-I think it would be better if you used PR when stepping the vocals
-fun file, I liked the little mirror PR thingies you did


I'm A Raver (D'nB) (IgroMAN) [-]
-holy inconsistency batman
-holy wrong rhythms everywhere and bad layering


Im Sick Of Uprock (Patashu) [+]
-very fun, very tastefully done. most people would find a way to turn this into a cluster**** of arrows, but this was really good


Islamey (Xandertrax) [+?]
m31 the two jump things end on different notes, it would be cool to differentiate them, same with m32
m39,41 I don't understand where you got all those jumps from, it seems like it should be jump tap tap jump jump jump jump jump jump jump jump jump jump tap tap jump jump jump jump jump jump jump, maybe if you wanted to use hands too that'd be fine but not how it currently is
-I would've stepped the first part at twice the bpm but that's just me
m52b3-m53b3 I only hear jumps on the yellow notes. same as when it repeats a couple measures later
-not really sure what's going on at the end, but I'll take your word on it
-seemed overstepped all the way around



It's Only Natural (bluguerrilla) [+.]
-gayest song ever
-nah it was cool I guess
-bpm changes were exactly something I would do lol
m10 the last couple beats feel off, I see what you stepped but I think it would be more fun if the vocals were represented, at least rhythmically
m62b4 the first yellow note shouldn't be there THERE'S A GAP AND YOU MISSED IT SUCKER
m66b3 should have a note, he strums again, and then a pick up into the next measure
m69-70 should be 12ths
m75-76 is all wrong, I think the first half has some 12ths and the second half has gallops but I really can't tell what's going on and nobody will notice anyway
-the jumpstream patterns in the last js section sucked, just saying they played like cream cheese
-not gonna really hold the technical errors in the solo against it because it's not a really technical file and it was fun


Jazzman (Cyanite) [+]
-no complaints


Kirby 64 - Forest (Xandertrax) [+.]
-not a fan of the song
-kinda boring
-nothing wrong with it


Kirby Gourmet Race (Xandertrax) [+?]
-those jumpjacks are really lame, especially since there's no layering to justify their existence
-a lot of really eh patterns and layering inconsistencies


Koisuru VOC@LOID (bmah) [+.]
-file made a lot more sense when I put on headphones
m68ish at the slowdown what are you layering there?
-you never stepped the 24th bass drums except at m78 and 94, it was consistent up until that point
-song made my ears bleed lol



La Plume De Ma Tante! (irionman+samurai7694+Kommisar[os]) [+]
m26 first blue note should be a 12th or something, it's definitely swung
m38b4 missing 16th
m58 I think the rhythm should be starting at the first yellow 3 48ths, 6 24ths (blue to blue), 1 16th. I think. it's really hard to tell lol
-tastefully done, just check over those little things


Last Battle (Shadow 1800) [-]
-long jacks were wrong and unnecessary, the guitar is definitely changing pitch at all those times
-bad pr throughout
-seemingly random patterns sometimes
-huge silences
-inconsistent layering
-etc


LONLY LONLY [sc979] [+?]
m31 that 24th thing is a godawful pattern
m100 ugh patterns
-really long and boring
-colored note syncing was ok, but honestly I think you should just try a different song

Magical 8bit Tour (JX) [+]
-I didn't like the bits with the straight 16th jumps, but I understand why they're there.
-fun other than the dying lol


memories (bmah) [+]
-shouldn't measure 39 have a yellow jump


Metropolis [8-bit] (OperationStrawbarry) [?]
-song is long and boring
-misplaced/extra/wrong 16ths all over the place
-lots of really unfun patterns caused the layering style


Mnk (OperationStrawbarry) [?]
-sync felt wonky
m1 rhythm is wrong, same with every time that repeats
-misrythms throughout and lots of unfun patterns, plus it's probably not hard enough for hands


Moonlight (megamon88) [+]
-song is loooooouuuuuud
-simple but fun and effective, I like it


Mourning Heart (Bluearrowll) [+.]
-I don't think you could've synced that any more weirdly while still being correct lol
-the grace notes are probably too much for a file of that difficulty, it might work out better as just jumps on the dominant beats


Multicore (Mr.Nothing) [?]
-.040ish gap
-poor layering choices throughout, some places it was obviously wrong, other places it just could have followed more prominent stuff and been more accurate
-missing some notes where you stepped 16ths in one place and not in others
-not really fun


Nice Guys Finish Last (mac attack+adamaja456) [-]
-wrong bpm bad sync etc quit out


Nitro Panic! (Coolboyrulez0 & Xandertrax) [+]
-ow
-beginning feels a little dumpy (the part after you layer the stuff onto the jacks) but the trill part is so hard it doesn't really matter


Northern Lights (0) [+?]
-bad sound quality, get a better mp3?
-around m60ish you messed up a couple jumps, assuming you're layering the vocals
-should've stepped the vocals more often, especially during the blank spots/obvious vocal features


Now You're gone [championanwar] [?]
-do we even have basshunter blanket permission?
-do we really need any more basshunter? all his songs are the same lol
-jack part was fun but completely clashed with the rest of the file, which just felt like random generic arrows over a generic beat
-I'm surprised you didn't step jacks again at the end
-there was a jump missing somewhere towards the end
-my honest advice is scrap this song and pick a better one lol


Nu-Island (Silvuh) [+?]
-the really repetitive patterns don't work too well for an easier file
-patterns at m29-33 are way too awkward
-jacks at m69 are out of place compared to the rest of the file
-ok technically just wonky difficulty engineering would put off the targeted audience


Of Course you Need and nEed and neEd and neeD and NEED ME (Kommisar[os]) [+.]
-i used a cmod
-plays like a sharpnel dump on steroids
-not a fan of the 1 handed minitrills in the fast streams
-eh


Otaku Speedvibe[EDIT](who_cares973) [-]
no. just... no


Phanta! (_.Spitfire._) [+?]
-lol @ that random bigass jack
-song is so loooooooooooooooooooooooong for the love of god cut it

Pleasant Farmer (stavie33) [?]
-why would you step this song? it's just the same thing repeated 57 times lol
-chain patterns and especially the long 8th jacks are just dumb, plus they don't really make sense anyway


Prelude No. 7 (Xandertrax) [+]
-I doubt anyone is actually going to want to play this but there's nothing wrong with it


Primitivism (CyclopsDragon) [+?]
-try making a version where you actually try to avoid all those dumb patterns instead of making it a technical dump that plays like ass


Radiant Moonlight (Bluearrowll) [+.]
-on the one hand, most of the file was really generic
-on the other, the jumpstream patterns were pretty fun
-there was a jump missing in the beginning of the second jumpstream


Rage Template (_.Spitfire._) [+?]
-a lot of the notes you step are really weak and not that important, which gets lost under everything else going on
-missing notes here and there, extra notes here and there


RAIN (_.Spitfire._ & bluguerrilla) [+]
-tpaz needs to make his snares audible without me having to use headphones
-accepting on the condition that when everyone complains about that 24th pattern you are not allowed to make any rebuttal


Rain (BDN & Kommisar[os]) [+.]
-yay an 8bit song with lots of trills and crap
-nothing wrong with it i guess?


Red Wings Over Baron (bluguerrilla & HighAndr0id) [+]
-m165 in that section you missed a few jumps here and there, like the first blue note of 165
-i hear two 16th pickups going into m185 and 187
-m198 BNS lol, it fixes itself but then the 12th quad jack is a little off sync. i think the bpm change should come before where you currently have the 12ths and they should be 8th notes so it'd be bpm change on a rest blue red blue red and i think that would fix all the issues in one swoop
-i doubt the solo is 100% accurate but I'm sure 100% accurate would end up being a load of hore**** so how you have it works
-minor details


ReMotion Remixed (Xandertrax) [+]
-I'm not a fan of m33ish but it works with the ups and downs of the file so I can't hold that against it
-one of these days I'm going to figure out how you come up with your PR


Saddest Remix (Kommisar[os]) [withdrawing vote]
-I like mine better but I'm not going to judge comparatively since it's against mine


Secret Zombie Room V2 (unkdavar) [+?]
-dnb sections were boring
-in the quieter parts you should've stepped more stuff instead of having gigantic blank spaces
-you missed lots of piano at the end
-decidely eh


Sexperation (bmah) [+.]
-took me a couple looks to get some of the jump placements
-the sax solo is a little off syncwise. most of it was good though


Ska de Chocobo (Redorigami) [+.]
-I liked the patterns of this one a lot better compared to the other version
m52-60 there's a reoccurring 16th pattern that you step the same way as you did earlier in the file but there's one extra note in this section


Ska de Chocobo!! (TC_Cyrenics + bmah) [<] (+.)
-to be honest, this file was better technically, but the other was more fun to play IMO. I think either file is worth putting in, I just liked the other better
-in a perfect world I'd say collab the two files, use red's patterns for the main sections, you guys help him out with the little technical errors, and use your ending


Slashfic (OperationStrawbarry) [?]
-jump placement felt arbitrary
-wrong rhythms in random spots, m32 for example, also at those minijumpjack things
-just really inconsistent overall

Slow Down (Xandertrax) [+?]
-half the file felt like it should have been mirrored
- the patterns felt very arbitrary, like they made sense within themselves but it was really inconsistent overall


Smash Podcast (Coolboyrulez0) [+?]
-patterns like the ones at m9 should be 123123 instead of the 8th jacks
-24th trill at the end might be too much for the difficulty level but I dunno really any way to make it better


So Sexy Robotnik (SKG_Scintill) [?]
m34 too many 16ths
m40 I don't hear any 32nds
parts like m47 with those longass trills are kinda dumb to play, really lots of the patterns with those huge zigzags and stuff are really dumb although technically accurate
m83 not quite sure what those 32nds should be but it's definitely not 32nds
-wrong rhythms abound in the funky section
-the sax solos aren't straight 24ths


South Paw (~HentaiXXX~) [-]
-what's with the colors
-the 8th chains were like a straight cut out from that one old file with all the godawful patterns
-generic bleh sharpnel song


Stai With Me (-Barista-) [+?]
-pretty fun, there were just lots of wrong rhythms all over the place, generally extra 16th notes


Star Of Andromeda (bmah) [+?]
-seemed like poor climax theory, I wasn't a fan of the really hard really weird part at the beginning then it randomly got easier, and then randomly a lot harder again, and it didn't seem to fit with the music. Other than the 94858934 jumps sections the patterns were really good


Sunny Funny Chiny (_.Spitfire._) [+]
-lol this song
-thanks for making that not godawful, it really could've been


Sunset (Bolth Mannn) [!]
-blank?


Sunset Dept. (CyclopsDragon) [+?]
m6 has a wrong rhythm
m9b3 extra 16th
-there are wrong rhythms throughout the file so check it over
-pretty cool song


Super Spy Hunter(who_cares973) [+.]
-hands didn't really add anything to the file
-eh?


Swallowing An Avalanche (New Mix) (Bynary Fission) [+.]
-like NWE v2
-song kept going and going and going and going and going and going and going
-and going and going
-it's not even that long it's just it's so boring and repetitive that it still should probably be cut lol
-jacks were evil

Tageri (TC_Halogen) [+.]
-fun other than that bigass 12th jack and that evil 1 hand trill thing


The Duck Grinder (samurai7694) [?]
-great way to start a song lol
-your layering scheme didn't make much sense, you'd put jumps on quarters when the dominant beat was on 8ths and vice cersa and it just didn't have the right feel


Time To Eye (bmah) [+]
-wow that's left hand heavy lol
-ending seemed like you would randomly omit claps and stuff, dunno if that was intentional or not


Ultema, the Perfect Body (PSy Mix) (CyclopsDragon) [-]
-I just stopped playing, the song is still going in the background right now
-if you're going to make an easy file the patterns need to be varied, not the same thing over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over


Under the Clearest Blue Skies (dooty_7) [+?]
-a couple of inconsistencies in the latter half of the song
-really boring song and boring file, even for an easy file


Usatei (Bynary Fission) [?]
-waaaaay overlayered, there wre plenty of dominant sounds but they were lost amid a sea of jumps and bursts and crap
-too many notes in the vocals, when you slow down somebody talking it tends to make it sound like there are more notes than there really are, you had 4 syllable words with like 7 notes and stuff like that


Vah-Jay-Jay [dore] [#]
-pure ****ing masterpiece


Versatile (Xandertrax) [+?]
-in that long roll stream thingy at the start I think it'd be better if you used more patterns, i.e m11-12 use mirror or something
-jump placement in m57-65?


Warren(who_cares973) [+.]
-good but not perfect sync, kinda boring song but whatever


Welcome to Cyberdrome (Xandertrax) [+?]
-I think it'd be better if you did some layering other than just jumps to the melody. It might've been alright but the loud claps that didn't have anything while the synth had jumps were distracting to have empty spaces.


Winter Wind Etude (Xandertrax) [+]
-I liked how you altered the layering based on dynamics, I don't think it was perfect but it was good


Worse (Xandertrax) [+.]
-as a marching band person who had to always listen to these goddamn drumline warmups, I hate you
-interesting concept for a file, I really dunno if I like it or not
-I wouldn't step the voice at the end as bursts


XP Sound Attempt(Who_Cares973) [+]
-those jacks were fast
-really fun


Yosakoi (-Barista-) [?]
-the stream at m11 doesn't really go to anything, I mean there's assorted sounds that fill up most of the 16ths but it would probably be better to at least follow something. it plays well, at least
m23 on any particular reason you only stepped half the stabs?
m25 random 32nds?
-the whole next section really doesn't go to anything in particular
m61 those 32nds are one helluva terribad patterns lol
lots of really inconsistent stepping/layering throughout


V4N'S STUFF

666 MPH [+?]
-fun and tastefully done file
-a few missing 16ths here and there which are pretty noticeable and distracting
-I don't like the ending the way it is but I dunno if stepping the talking would be any better


Arrrrrr [+]
-some of those rhythms were weird lol


Beadumaegen [+]
-not a fan of the song but hey that's why I'm not in charge of anything


Bullet's POV [?]
-dsjfnvkdjsfvgisdfg that song hurt my ears a lot
-lots of missed rhythms all over the place


Hello Mr. Tree [?]
-lots of missing drum notes across the board, I think there were a few yellows that should've been swung but that was minor


Slaytronic [+]
-I liked it, was that actually a Slayer remix or am I reading too much into the title?


TizAshura [+.]
-eh


Twist [+.]
-those little 32nd rolls are a little much compared to the difficulty of the rest of the file, I'd just put 'em as 16ths and it'd play fine
