Sorry, Llama, gonna have to disagree with you there. Ievan's jacks are nowhere near as hard as those in Club or AIM. Club's jacks are hard because they're long, and repeat different jumps each time. AIM is hard only because of a couple of jacks at the end where it makes you switch back and forth between 1-handed and 2-handed jacks. The hardest jack in Ievan is like 1 arrow repeated 4 times at a relatively low BPM. I'm almost tempted to call it a challenging, but it's not quite that easy, just a low VC. Methinks that should get fixed.

On a side note, however, really good chart, and good song. Well done JX. =)

would i get the oni token if i AAA this new song? my best score so far is 2-0-0-1, i struggle on the doubles when the change from side to side, but i think i may be able to AAA.

back on topic, i do think this song is low fmo, it is quite fast, and the jacks arent exactly easy.

HELL NO



took 5 try's, while for AIM and Club I still can't even get below 20 goods, you must be a great wrist jacker or just high, the song is most definitely VC

I'd give it a 73, MAYBE 74, anywho, Through the Stream of Time is much harder, took me much longer to AAA, I think that's a 74, but it could be lower, idk, it's rather difficult for me, it's just unorthodox IMO


EDIT:

Just looked, the songs been out less than an hour and has 11 AAA's, this is NOT FMO by any stretch of that difficulties range, and look at this, Through the Stream of Time (which isn't that hard) has been out much longer (2 days now?) and only has one more AAA (not including mine I just got), so yeah, this should NOT be FMO, but if it is, another free FMO AAA for me, but it better not be an Oni get

you guys need to stop judging files based on how well you can do. Ievan Polkka is an fmo. most people that play ffr dont play sm and arent used to jacks which makes this file difficult hell it took me an assload of tries just to fc it because im not used to them in ffr

but im going to go ahead and be like you guys and say GOSW,Dead and direct novo mundo k8107 should all be lowered because i can do well on those

wtf are you on about who cares. pollka is definitely VC at most. im useless at jacks too and i fc'd this easily on a laggy laptop. just because it has jacks shouldn't instantly make it an FMO. imo it's around the level of Starlight and only the jump jacks in the middle of the file are any hard. plus it's getting way too many aaa's already.

oh yeh... and pretty cool file as well, ha.

They should be lowered to VCs, except Dead and Direct.

also, @whocares, as much as I respect you, you realize out of all the files you mentioned, Levan Polka is still the easiest by far? And why the hell Dead and Direct there? That's a mid FMO, 79-80, it's hard, JX wants it to be 80, so yeah

And, does anyone agree that La Campanella should be a 90? Those trills are evil, and whocares, I think it's the greatest classical file we have in the game, you're stepping was perfect, I think it's the best file in the game (stepchart wise) because it is the best conversion you could get from the direct piano sheet music to an FFR chart

Ievan Polkka, mid VC at hardest. Compare that to VC's that have been released recently, it's significantly easier than run through the stream of time and bus rides with people. It's a fairly short song too.

Ievan Polkka has got to be the easiest FMO in existence. It can't even be compared to NWE. 73 or 74 at most.
I know I can AAA it, I just couldn't play it seriously because my mother was at home and she hates the noise.

My procedure for judging file difficulties at this point is basically
- Take how hard I think it is
- Subtract anywhere from 0 to 3 difficulty levels depending on how many jacks there are
Hence Club and AIM ought to be 10s because I think they're 13s but they get a -3 modifier.

@[Tera], I agree with all of those except that Summertime should definitely remain FMO, just an easy one. And yeah, Jeanie should be VC, easiest FMO other than Polka, but seriously, why did anyone think Polka was FMO? Even with the 3-framers, Turkish March is harder (I was kidding about starlight)

Yes, yes, yes, maybe (the definition of borderline between VC/FMO imo) and yes.

And Ievan is most definitely a VC.

I agree that Polka is VC, but let me AAA it first and then do anything you want. Also I got 1-0-0-2 and it tells that song isnt too easy.

Turkish march is at least 2 points harder than Ievan Polkka imo.

Also, for the FMOs being VCs story, I cant understand how you can put STP easier than both LWs, Choprite or Southern Cross.

I agree that Silence and Jeanie are more VCs than FMOs, and I suck at NWE but with all those AAAs it could be a VC too.

Just a comment about the "Those FMOs are supposed to be VCs" thing.
Borderline songs are supposed to exist. If all the 76 become VCs, after that, people will start saying that Lawn Wake IV should be VC too, because the borderline song difficulty will also increase. I don't think that makes much sense.
