Congrats LongGone!! Looks like a good group of songs, I'll have to play them tomorrow.


EDIT: Played three of them so far, I really liked Snow and Introduction. I'm out of the groove because of school and I'm trying out R^3 so it was a bit iffy PA-wise for me haha. Resistance was okay, not too bad of a song although the steps are sort of cluttered and the hands aren't really necessary imo.

I'll play these later once I figure out why I can't go onto the R^3 engine.

It's tough to choose a favourite file for this week because they're all delicious.

In The Clouds is way too easy to be a 29 imo.

Most of the lower half of the difficulty spectrum (45 and under) is going to receive a complete overhaul sometime in the near future. I feel as though most songs in the Standard/Tricky/Difficult ranges are all over the place. In The Clouds is a low 7 (constant 120bpm streaming knocks it above Tricky territory for sure), and I believe 7s extend all the way up to 35 starting from 26 or so. It could probably be a few points lower, but just know that a reworking of that entire lower end is coming soon to make difficulty placements much easier and for more accurate ratings to be reflected.

Best file of the week goes to Arsonist for me, although I'm having issues getting the score I want because I can't decide whether or not I want to swing or not (lol FFR timing).

Snow was really good too, I just wish the file lasted a little longer, haha. The color tricks for the subtle buzzes were a great touch and actually added a little bit of difficulty for reading.

Introduction was also really well done -- color tricks were nicely done.

Neurotoxin is alright but the pattern choices get a bit monotonous (I think I've had enough hitting U/R on snares today, ty ).

In The Clouds was pretty good for an easy file, albeit a bit overrated at 29. The PR is noticeable, which is always nice for a lower level file.

Resistance 4 didn't click with me when I judged it in the batch a while back, and my thoughts are somewhat the same, at least for the first half. It just feels awkward/overlayered to me, and the patterns feel really repetitive -- there was a particular section where [12] and [34] (combined with some anchors) were used over and over again and I was just waiting to get past that particular section. I don't remember if I had any notes for the second half, but the second half was really neat minus that one short white burst that absolutely mutilated me.

Ok got home, time to give my thoughts!

Best file by far was resistance 4, so good, unique, fun, just amazing file i love u anaru.

neurotoxin/snow/introduction were all really good as well great stuff.

into the clouds was nice for an easy file.

least favourite by far was arsonist. jeez could this feel any more awkward? normally i absolutely love swing files but to me this didn't flow and just was a rare misstep by kommi imo. might even go so far as to saying i hate this file sorry im gonna be a bitch right now

anyways super solid week

AJ, you've gotta swing-hit Arsonist. Contrary to what j-rodd said, I thought the flow was excellent and made the file even sound fun to hit.

I AAA'd the file up to 1800 doing straight 16ths, oops...

I'll do it swing for real, though. Also, is it odd that I got nearly 10:1 on Neurotoxin? I felt like I was hitting like garbage.
