Re: Difficulty 1-9 Special Batch
Yes I'm being a dipshit because saying a song is jarring is not bringing it lightly that you don't enjoy a song. Sure you can dislike a song but calling it jarring is kind of insulting in this case.

Re: Difficulty 1-9 Special Batch
I gotta say. I wasn't expecting perfect scores for these files but some of these results are pretty funny. I will completely agree that there are probably some sync issues with at least one, if not all, of the files that I submitted. I have always been very public about my issues with perfectly syncing files. I would love to attempt to edit any of these, though to be honest I would need some assistance on that front as my current computer does not allow me to effectively edit these. That being said, all of these files are years old. The comments regarding the "oldschool" stepping style is because of when these were created and decently similar to my stepping style at that time. It should probably also be noted that Get Out Mah Driveway was stepped, partially as a joke, when I was drunk. As for the song choice, each one of these files was made for someone I know.
(chart reviews under spoiler tags to reduce space) Get Out Mah Driveway Common issues, or perceived issues: Song choice and stepping style (jumps/sync/pr). For the song choice, I have no intention of cutting or changing the song in any way. It's different from all other songs in the game, to the best of my knowledge. There is no need to make this song conform to any specific standard. As for the stepping style aside from actual sync issues I feel no real reason to change this file. I would love, seriously somebody take the initiative, to prove me wrong and clean up the issues you have with my stepping style. I feel that some people don't appreciate my stepping style as, similar to the song choice it isn't "conforming" to current standards. I understand the reasoning for this, I went through the same issues myself ~6 years when stepping styles were changing. The one thing that I would like to point out, based on the people who reviewed this file, they were not the intended audience for this, and my other, files. This file, as well as the others, are not meant to be uber technical, nor the next greatest file. These were created mostly just to be easy. There is no need to follow strict style guidelines for these files as that was not their intention. Now, all ranting aside this was a decent review for this file with an acceptable outcome. Monday Common issues, or perceived issues: Song choice and stepping style (jumps/sync/pr). For the song choice, I have no intention of cutting or changing the song in any way. It's long and fairly repetative, deal with it. It's not the first time that a long and repetative song would be placed into the game, assuming this would be accepted, and it shouldn't be the last. Another big issue is that this song didn't contain any PR. If you have to have PR in a file this simple f**k off. Might it improve the file, yes that could be possible, but is it absolutely necessary, no. I believe that one of the reviews on the file completely trashed the file simply because of this stepping style. I challenge you to step this file, hell take my chart and fix it for this batch, to see if it really makes the file that much better. I highly doubt that the intended audience for this file would really notice the difference between correct PR for this and not. Not having seen the file recently, I can't comment on the repetative-ness of the file, so trusting the judges on that aspect this could be cleaned up so that it's not a completely repeating itself. Now, all ranting aside I do not believe that the result that this file got was fair based solely on the issues with the PR. If it is far too repetative to be allowed in that is one thing. Qu'est ce que c'est Common issues, or perceived issues: Song choice, sync, and stepping style (jumps/sync/pr). For the song choice, I have no intention of cutting or changing the song in any way. It's long, I agree, but I wanted the entire song as there was a bit of a story to it. Cutting would just take away from this, and isn't entirely necessary. I knew that there were probably issues with the sync for this, see previous notes for current issues, however I figured it was decent, but nowhere near as poor as commented on in these reviews. No real complaints with that, though any assistance with correcting this sync would be greatly appreciated. This was easily the the lowest quality file that I submitted, and also the only file that I really tried to force the steps for, though that being said I feel that the majority of the reviews did not disapprove of the step choices, mostly just the sync issues. This review was arguably the best of all of my files, only for really cracking down on sync issues. Overall: I would not be surpised if none of these files are accepted into the game. Feel free do dispute any of these claims or explain why you think that I am wrong (Probably best to use PM so as not to derail the thread). I would really hope that someone might be able to assist me with fixing these charts up a bit to be accepted later. Realizing the amount of work that could be required depending on the song these would probably result in a collaboration of sorts. I would hope that these files won't fall into the same issues that Skeletor had, taking years to finally be accepted, even after complying with all requested changes and partially ruining the file. |

Re: Difficulty 1-9 Special Batch
When I played GET OUT OF MAH DRIVEWAY, it was clear that your file had the loose amorphous feel of some of the earliest old-school files out there. I certainly was not naive about a different style of stepping, but that still doesn't give a free pass to accept the file. The chart was -beyond- "undertechnical". Any sort of nostalgia factor is grinded away by the characterization of the chart itself. I didn't have any problems with the music.
That being said, if you were drunk making this file, then it's hard to tell for sure what you were thinking. *shrugs* Also, you do not have to comply to every aspect of criticism: if you think that your fixes are turning the file into something you're not satisfied with, try a different approach or simply don't submit. There are times when I didn't bother resubmitting my rejected files for that reason. |

Re: Difficulty 1-9 Special Batch
Oh, wow. I'm astounded that both of my files were above the acceptance line, especially considering one got handed a 4. :S
There are definitely some major revisions under way hahaaaa. |
