    Re: badman7772's Post-OT Wild Card Tournament [Round 1]

    Nice and easy for round 1



    Not sure if I need to include the replay but here ya go.


    Bonus 1

    Bit of a long winded explanation for this one but I promise my ramblings get to the point eventually.

    So this track right here is not only one that I really enjoy playing (just gotta love that continuous flow) it's possibly responsible for the fact that I'm on FFR at all.
    As a kid my sister and I would always race over to the dance mats at the arcades and get ourselves straight on the leader boards, much to the shock of the teenagers standing around waiting their turn (they we're still a pretty new thing so had literal ques for them); what many didn't realise was that the PS1 release of DDR had quite a few of the same tracks, mapped the same, so we used to practice in the attic and then think we looked so cool in front of the teens :')
    At 13 I started to get quite ill, specifically relating to the reliability of my legs and general exhaustion; this meant no more dance mats, at home or the arcade. I cannot tell you how much it utterly sucked; I got used to being unwell pretty quickly but it was not being able to do my literal favourite activity anymore that really really sucked.
    When I was 14 I sat online after school looking to see what offerings NotDoppler had just uploaded for the week and one of them was SCGMD [Super Crazy Guitar Maniac Deluxe] (I think number 3) and it was brilliant, while it was nothing like playing DDR it had a lot of the same kind of play and enjoyment for me (I hadn't discovered "rhythm" to be a whole game genre yet). The track that I've picked for my favourite was actually in that game and one that I really enjoyed playing on there and the game as a whole got me to thinking, maybe there was something that was like DDR that I could play on my laptop?
    I have no idea how many different ways I phrased it (Google wasn't quite as good 13 years ago) but I essentially spent a few weeks looking for "DDR for your hands" and eventually it threw up this place as a result. I had a look through the songs that were available and most were just single word titles that didn't really tell me much and I didn't recognise them but what I eventually did find on there was Guitar Vs Piano, a song that I not only recognised but one that I already knew I enjoyed, and that was enough to encourage me to actually look at the other tracks and give this site I'd found a go...
    That was twelve and a half years ago, and I'm still here. I don't have to be 'good' at the game; I thoroughly enjoy playing it.



    Bonus 2

    If I play downscroll anymore I think I'm going to actually throw up, it's making so so dizzy just trying to look at it and play!

      Round 1


      Bonus 1
      My actual favorite song is CIA Rave, but I posted that for a sponcon in one of your other tournaments. So went with a different one.
      I've always loved this song, how it sounded and how quick it was. This song brings back memories of being a teenager because I would always play it at my grandma's house on her computer. I don't know why, but I would only ever play it at her house lol
      Even though I don't play this song that often anymore and I'm not very good at it (even worse at the other version lol), I've always enjoyed it.


      Bonus 2
      Not giving this another try, I really don't like it

          New AAA is always welcome.





          Bonus 1:
          I spent some time looking though the lower difficulty files to see if something jumped out at me and there were a lot great songs. This one jumped out at me. I've decided on =.The Ocean.=. It's a really chill song, I have a soft spot for songs that seem to move forward without really going anywhere. It's got a bit of a reserved optimism to it as well. It's a nice little intro to 32nds in nice staircase patterns, and enough repeated arrows in middle section to help get acclimated to some anchor based patterns. I cannot guess how many times I've picked it as a song in mp over. It's a very comfortable song to play and listen.

            Re: badman7772's Post-OT Wild Card Tournament [Round 1]

            Heck I'll play d4 even though I'll get roasted later on because my top score is a big fluke.

            R1:
            Case Closed - 2 goods. Might go for the AAA tomorrow and wednesday because it's easily in reach and would be my top AAA. I have a feeling that 2g won't be a big deal in later rounds I think...


            Bonus 1 -
            Favorite song - Bloody Mary, Kate and Ashley. I love this album, I love PUP. I bought this album on vinyl twice, one to give to a cousin who just bought a record player (i thought PUP would be up her alley). This is my favorite song on the album, I get chills every single time switch.


            Bonus 2 - Twilight Techno 223 G on downscroll. This was definitely NOT the song to pick, I could not read the streams AT ALL, but had fun.

              Re: badman7772's Post-OT Wild Card Tournament [Round 1]

              Round 1 submission. not an AAA but i'm not really trying to win anyway.



              Bonus 1 submission. Excellent file and very fun to play uprated. The song is lovely, the streams are extremely satisfying to play, the jacks are sparse and approachable even for a weaker jack player like myself- one of the charts that i find myself coming back to over and over again just because its quite fun to play.

                    This is kinda confusing and i think i'm not the only one who checks this post not as often.
                    I'll see what i can do to get a score in time.

                      Oh I forgot to update start date. LOL.

                      Will also mention no late penalty for Round 1. You just NEED to submit something there before the end of Round 2.

                          Also wanna apologize for lack of updates on spreadsheet. Currently having a hectic day of work (almost over though) and I had to go to a friend's house last night to cheer them up.

                              This song and chart are amazing! For a difficulty of 48, this turned out to be easy for such a high difficulty. I did sightread SDG and this does seem like I'm able to AAA it soon. Personal best is actually 2-0-0-0. Was really proud that I beat an expert player in MP on this song. Just a really good chart and song!
