    When I quad-hold I fail, there's a delay between when I first press it and when the arrows start registering.

    ... and why is this pos still in the level ranks?? I'm penalized for not having a keyboard which I can quadhold the song

            I'm going to add this to the thread.

            If Jake knew it was glitch, then shame on him.

            If he didn't know and thought this was a way to achieve the vROFL goal, then it was just an oopsies on his part since he didn't know.

              Pretty much this.

              But also if Wimper wall doesn't give gts vrofl shouldn't either considering they're both joke charts anyways.

                But whimper wall was never supposed to give GT in the first place, and shouldn't be in the level ranks!

                  Vrofl and Wimper wall are both joke charts

                  there's not much of a difference you need to quad hold or ****** luck to pass both of them unless you're like dossar or something

                      I'm sorry my "unlock" is so much trouble. I'd be fine with it not counting I guess, I just assumed that my unlock would work since it Plan_Bsk got vROFL doing the samething and nothing at all was said about it. I guess that was a pretty stupid assumption.

                      If people are sore about Whimper Wall being used to unlock it, why isn't there a note somewhere saying we aren't allowed to use it? The recording scores "bug" has been happening for a while now.

                      Also, if Whimper Wall isn't allowed, whoring vROFL shouldn't be either. Anyone can just quadhold vROFL, how is that any different? And then revoke everyone's support tokens that were achieved in the gamewhore contest in April, those were all unfairly gotten too.

                        I'm not easily offended, but this actually offends me. How dare you hold down 4 keys repeatedly for half a day, getting three times the maximum score per hour than previously possible and come in and try to claim vrofl as your reward, a token I spent YEARS trying to achieve. I'm appalled that whoever decided to re-add this joke of file
                        *didn't remember?
                        *didn't care enough?
                        *is a big enough troll?
                        to not disable grand-total and credit registry on the file. This is ridiculous and I will not have my years of gts supped in a matter of days because someone has a quad-holding keyboard and too much time on their hands. GTS and credit registry needs to be disabled (or better yet, throw out the entire ****ing file for good) ASAP, would love a score rollback for all who abused this as well...

                          I'm sorry to anybody offended by this, I honestly thought it'd be fine since for some reason, everybody was fine with this when someone else unlocked it last week.

                          Anybody with the ability to change GTS, please remove the 1,003,336,440 points I got today from Whimper Wall.

                            I rolled back the last hours worth of GT from whimper wall, cleared statics relating to it, and disabled the song. GTS is not supposed to save for that song when using any engine, but it seems R^2 decided to ignore that code.

                            Also, I will be temp score banning everyone who knowingly exploited it.

                            And I know who was exploiting it.

                              In 5 years, I will write a book called "How Grandtotal ruined my life".

                              ..and no one will read it.

                                If you ask me:
                                - This whole thing is the fault of certain people for putting this song ingame (again). It's clear that there wasn't enough testing effort put into testing whether this file was appropriate for being released. If anyone is at fault here it's whoever who put that song in the game, ignoring the judging queue, without fully thinking it through - not the users.
                                - It's not a "glitch" to play through a publicly available chart on an officially endorsed engine, then have the score record to your grandtotal. The fact that admins intended to prevent this particular song from recording scores, but didn't, doesn't mean that recording scores on it is a "glitch". It should not be a blacklistable or even bannable offense to fail to read the admins' mind.
                                - Users should not be penalized for trying to make the best of a situation. In fact, we should expect people to make the best of any situation, as long as they don't cheat.
                                - I 100% support rolling back grandtotal/tokens achieved from Whimper Wall. However, any further punishment can only be justified by sadism or low-level megalomania.
