Pretty fun, standard dump file. It's onsync and I have no major issues with how it's charted. The beginning is kind of boring and lasts a bit long for my taste, but that's an issue with the song and not the chart.

Re: Yolomania Vol 1 - New Difficult KB Pack [Submissions Open]

I think I might have a few more for this eventually. I'm going back and restepping some of the old files i discovered when I first started playing StepMania.

Re: Yolomania Vol 1 - New Difficult KB Pack [Submissions Open]

Woo, we definitely need more submissions. Send as many as you want lol.


Not so short update: This pack is moving fast, me and Skwid have been stepping a lot of files. I've been literally stepping 2 or 3 files a day, and maybe 1 in 10 have made their way to the pack. At the rate we're going, I'm going to TENTATIVELY plan for an October release. This of course assumes that I don't get bored of stepping files, and the same goes for Skwid. I'm not a fan of unreasonably big packs so if we get more submissions than I anticipate the pack will be released sooner. 50 files is the goal and we are already nearing 20 (!!).

On another note, we're looking for another quality control judge so that me and Skwid don't end up just auto accepting each others files without further criticism. Ko7a was going to be this person for us but I can't seem to get him to bother reviewing anything. I'll probably be looking around on SMO and asking people there, but I'm not opposed to anyone throwing their name out there here.

Might have something to send to this...

Re: Yolomania Vol 1 - New Difficult KB Pack [Submissions Open]

I sent some more shit of questionable quality

Re: Yolomania Vol 1 - New Difficult KB Pack [Submissions Open]

Kewl. I'll get reviews for them from me tomorrow. I'll pass on the word to Skwid as well.

Ok review time for mrtea

I'm really not feeling this one. The steps are fine but I really don't enjoy a lot of breakcore in packs. The sync is consistently off by about 20 milliseconds, which alone isn't a big deal but the song is just uncomfortable to listen to and is awkward in length. This might be better suited for some other pack, the file really isn't that bad I'm just not feeling it.

(MrTea) Emotional Joystick - untitled gabber song
Rejected
Ugh. This isn't getting accepted for about a thousand reasons but the biggest is that we really don't need another chart for this file. I already had something like 7 different charts for this. Beyond this the steps are awkward. Why you chose to put the half galloped 64ths in (the green notes) is beyond me. It might make sense in terms of the drums, as they do sound a little bit swingy, but the difference is so negligible that 16ths would have made a lot more sense. My play test of this had a perfect instead of a marvelous on almost every single one of these green notes as a result.

(MrTea) Nvoise - Lazy Susan
Accepted
I like this file. Its got a good mix of difficulty and fun and the song is pretty unique compared to others in the pack. I definitely hope skwid agrees with me on this one so that it end sup in the pack.



Also Tea, all your graphics are completely fucked, so if you wanna send me copies of Lazy Susan and Bitches with the graphics finalized I would appreciate that.

Re: Yolomania Vol 1 - New Difficult KB Pack [Submissions Open]

mfw he actually stepped Creative Flow

edit: sent 4 files for this

[Wafles]

Re: Yolomania Vol 1 - New Difficult KB Pack [Submissions Open]

Awesome, I'll get reviews for you soon. Hopefully tonight, maybe tomorrow though.

Short pack update: Axed one file from me and one file from skwid from the pack, looking back on those they were just too low quality to be considered for the pack anymore. Still haven't found another judge but for now we're gonna change the reviewing policy to files will be accepted if both me and skwid agree on it.

This is a pretty sick chart. Not the catchiest song in the world or anything imo, but the chart more than makes up for it. It's really damn fun.

(MrTea) Emotional Joystick - untitled gabber song
Rejected
I almost didn't even play this file because of the fact that there are a couple pretty good (and well known) charts for this song already.

While the weird swing shit in a lot of the streams in this song is almost certainly technically correct, this is a case where I'd argue you should chart the song incorrectly if it means that it will flow better and be more fun to play. I just don't see a reason that someone would pick this specific chart of this song over any of the others.

(MrTea) MrTea - Creative Flow
Rejected
The actual chart for this song is fine, but due to the length of the song and the song itself, I really can't imagine this having much replay value, tbh.



(James May) hally - Bgrusko Meow
Accepted
Amazing song choice and chart with lots of variety. There seems to be a note missing at beat 212 but that's the only criticism I can think of.

(James May) Parun - monocyclefromhell
Accepted
Pretty unique-sounding song. Chart is really fun and I like the difficulty progression.

(James May) Mowtendo - Nichismoke
Accepted
This might be my new favorite parody song/MAD chart. Awesome song and chart. Not much else to say.

(James May) Alias Conrad Coldwood - Pepper Steak
Rejected
I think the chart on this one is accurate and well done overall, but it's a bit too easy for my taste. That alone isn't really reason to reject something, but I don't even think this would be a really fun MA file or anything due to the song choice. It just feels really slow and repetitive and I can't see this having much replay value.

yeah i dunno. i don't even think it's a bad song or anything. it sounds like one of Igorrr's slower songs, and i fuckin' love Igorrr. it's just that i don't think it's really that great for stepmania.
