**8 Hour Whore** · 03-1-2013, 02:28 PM

Highly disappointed that I won't have an opportunity to battle it out for vrofl in 9th-16th competition if its 1-3 day long comp. oh well life is a bitch

I haven't even said anything about how that competition is going yet, you guys need to chill out on it.

Just from watching the replay I deduced 44 Edit is a lot easier, and given how well D5 did last round, I suspect there will be a few AAAs.

Can't wait to play the D6/7 file... it looks really fucking fun.

I had a file for this done that the community probably would have liked given the warm reception Ordeal is getting (stepped with a fade out cut at ~3:10):

but it got erased when my hard drive crashed ~2 months ago :'(
guess I should re-step l0l.

Glad people are liking Ordeal ='). I'll hopefully get around to playing 44 edit later today, file looks p sweet.

edit: hmmm looks like yt link isn't working, oh well. (Song was Aggressor, also by S.S.H) ~=P

Ordeal's amazing, man!
Nice job on the simfile!

a'scuse meh?
i'm in second with 8-0-0-1 after playing the file god knows how many times; I have no idea why this file's so much harder than last round when it's only a point of difficulty higher :<

**mrpreggers** · 03-1-2013, 03:41 PM

maybe it's just me but 44 edit feels wrong at certain parts like easy patterns were thrown in immediately after hard patterns just for the sake of creating awkwardness
i liked m140's version better

FissionMailed1 · 03-1-2013, 03:58 PM

I didn't want to make the file brutal throughout because it would play way too rigidly if I did that. CG is a good example of what I wanted to avoid (all [13][24] trills).

EDIT: Not saying CG is a bad file.

**d4u7211** · 03-1-2013, 05:19 PM

EN wtf wow, insane stuff dude

**smartdude1212** · 03-1-2013, 05:23 PM

Keep getting a good in that BEER-like pattern around 1700 but otherwise I'd probably have the AAA by now (keep fucking up easy shit otherwise/getting boos everywhere woo~).

Damn this file is fun.

Edit: LOL GET WRECKED peace

First again! *_*

**TC_Halogen** · 03-1-2013, 05:31 PM

The two components of this file that are tough to handle are the polyrhythm balance between 12th note jacks and 16th note patterns, and the really fast one-handed patterns that strain your hands in the middle of speedy streams are brutal -- mirror will prove to be ineffective if you're not strong at both of those things, because if you mirror for the streams, the polyrhythms all end up on an unfavorable side, and if you mirror for the polys, the streams end up on the hand that you don't want.

I have to mirror Ordeal to make all of the polyrhythm jacks left-handed, but I hate trying to contend with right-handed minitrills... I'd much rather have them on the left hand, haha.

EDIT: YO nice AAA

**smartdude1212** · 03-1-2013, 05:43 PM

THANKS

Completely agree though, the polyrhythms make this file so much more difficult just because the patterns aren't the most forgiving. I do love the sound of 24th bursts followed by short 16ths followed by more 24ths, etc... it's music to my ears.

This file doesn't feel quite like an 88 though... but it's long and I can see endurance playing a factor. The end is tough to AAA if you're shaking really bad though because you'll feel like you're hitting those jacks but really your fingers are vibrating seven inches above the keyboard.

**Zephei** · 03-1-2013, 05:50 PM

Damn. 2-0-0-0 at 1200 notes.

ugh i feel like edit 44 is so easy, but i can't even fc it consistently. too many hidden jacks.

edit: i'm gettin there.

**j-rodd123** · 03-1-2013, 07:27 PM

my sightread on 44edit was 8-0-0-4 which was better than my score on sleep. too bad i wasnt logged in and now i can keep complaining about it for all of eternity

i think it may have been a fluke tho

ca25nada · 03-1-2013, 07:34 PM

I think I can aim a low SDG on this provided that I don't mentalblock the beginning.

**sticklydude** · 03-1-2013, 07:35 PM

Nice score

How is this song an 82
