I think you mean the latter

Re: ODIPack3 submissions (it's happening!)

Sure, it's not my pack and maybe I shouldn't have been so passive aggressive, but I just don't want to take a step back when we've done so much to eliminate elitism these past years. Technicality isn't everything, if someone "missed 1 drum note" then maybe that's how they meant to express the song. There's only so much that can be considered objectively wrong

i understand what you mean but this is by no means a pack where technicality is everything. as you can see i have either accepted or rejected the files because of how i liked to play them. most of the rejected files have been because they are too easy and boring. it's the ones that im accepting that im just trying to sharpen up technically, my advice are usually just about a few notes, i don't get what is bad about this?

i should point out that if someone makes a file that i want to accept after some revision and the author doesn't want to do this, i would probably end up accepting it as it is. that goes for all the files reviewed with green text so far

My only issue with what he's doing is the fact that he's rejecting or diminishing files for reasons such as "it's too long" or "it's too easy" which is completely and wholeheartedly subjective—there will always be people who actually like these kind of files, which really questions who exactly is the demographic he's aiming for. Is he trying to appeal to the tiny abysmal community here or would he rather prefer to broaden the spectrum of players to the majority in which are casuals?

At the end of the day, I guess its about keeping it in moderation..

Bear in mind too, its not just merely "GLoVE's pack", its ODI3. It carries a weight with it; a reminiscence of the "elitist" era. Careful with what you're treading here, we want to maintain a certain quality level but at the same time we don't want to be overly "elitist" (ugh I hate that word rofl) and cater towards a select few tastes

Re: ODIPack3 submissions (it's happening!)

That sounds a lot better. The revision despite being "accepted" is what got me all worked up

Re: ODIPack3 submissions (it's happening!)

Just start your own pack if ya not happy haha.

It's too easy to get files in packs now. This is a challenge I love it. Forces me to really think about what I'm gonna send next

Re: ODIPack3 submissions (it's happening!)

don't make this into stepdramamaniaz when he's made what most people could agree as two of the best and most replayable stepmania packs ever made

Re: ODIPack3 submissions (it's happening!)

Sending in Mudkip (it is released but since my external died I don't have the file with the gfx oops ...)

Other files to be sending (once I'm done with them >_>...)
1. Christmas in Hollis (collab with Bynary Fission)
2. For Metro City (collab with Ferrari)
3. Light Years (Original Mix) (will submit it once I cut it/reduce the mines in it. Will probably add in 3 more charts to it sinced I'm already working on Standard)
4. Concert Paraphrase on "Dearly Beloved" (gonna probably take the longest because on how much I love to sync pianer files huehue, also, I need to do this all over again because my comp died when I was stepping this ;_;...)

Re: ODIPack3 submissions (it's happening!)

here are some more reviews

i have only played these a couple of times and i havn't looked at them in the editor yet so this will not be nearly as thorough feedback as i did with the xoon6 files. i felt i had to get judging the xoon6 files out of the way first so i could get going on your submissions!

i was thinking that all the submissions i got within the first day would definitely suck, i mean who can make a really good file in just a day? but im guessing many of you have spent a lot of time on these earlier because some of them are really good

A Q Children - hard alright lol. its either fast 8th jumps with the occasional 16ths or color note rolls to bursts. it completly lacks variety and i dont see that much hope for this song

chipscape - also lacks variety, so much the same beats and so much copy paste. but at least this one has potential. be more creative and try to have more variety and try again, take your time with this file, the pack will be running for long.

contact - awesome. really fun file. all of it is really fun and the end is so amazing, the style of the file changes completly twice in the last minute lol i love it, so good. the only thing about this file is that it has that long silent part three times in it. cutting the second one should be easy, i can do this for you if youd like. contact me about it and i'll look it through in the editor as soon as possible

ill forget you - its really good. the part with the minijacks to the lead melody is mega-awesome. but i think the rest of the minijacks should be made differently because i even doubt they are consecutive notes, but that's not my main issue with it, the problem is that it makes the calmer parts of the song that doesn't have that awesome minijack-lead-melody look the same as the part that does. i think we can look at some of minor things in this one as well. go through it yourself and then resubmit it to me and i'll look at it in the editor and we'll finalize it

reefer man - hahaha awesome, but i think there's a lot of room for improvement on this one. its a bit offsync and i think the piano could be stepped more in many parts to make it more fun. take some time to look it through, then resubmit to me and i will look it through in the editor

rome is where the art is - it has good and fun parts, but mostly it's too simple and easy while being a long song. the not so interesting parts repeat a lot too. also has a ton of technical errors. it would be a better file if the song was cut but i dont really see any light at the end of the tunnel for this file since it doesn't have a really climactic part

tzuicha-cha - FANTASTIC. i will look at it in the editor some time this weekend. this file will surely be accepted

lol AQ Children

8 measure long 270ish bpm 32nd walls, at least that's how I'd have stepped it heh


p.s. its a really repetitive song why are you trying to submit such a thing to super-technicalmanias pack, submit to FFR instead
