Placements aren't done until last minute, which was stated over and over and over again. Nobody was actually looked over until after signups were closed because people improve and it's better to look as close to start as possible.

TL;DR What exactly went in to this tournament? I have no place to say anything, but I've followed rhythm games for ages, and analyzed a lot of 4k maps. Is the idea here, to knock as MANY people as you can round 1, and then lay off in difficulty a little bit?
Like I said, I have no place to even comment on this, based off the division I'm in, but christ... The D2 should be a D4/D5 The D4 should be a D5/D6 So on, so forth... This has no bearing on everyone say... Rank 1-150ish, as the D7 file is appropriate, but it seems like you're expecting people to play at the top of their division, whether it be D1/D2/D3/D4, which is not the case. I'm almost scared to see what the other rounds are like. Regardless, best of luck! Last edited by Killionz; 06-25-2016 at 10:53 PM.. |

I'm not staff but I think the idea is to stop the AAA-fests that have been common in previous tournaments

Every single person in the division. And we would have to create tiebreakers that were actually hard. Entire divisions AAAing, or cutoffs that were like, one boo happened way too often. This format is just skipping to the "song that is actually hard" step.

Oh, preventing AAA-fests? What exactly is D6 turning out to be? I can already see 8-9 of them, and the rest are pretty much almost there.
Of course it's not a tee-ball game, and I never said that it should be one. However, having that much of a gap in relative difficulty, to ACTUAL difficulty, will turn a lot of people off. I understand where you're coming from though, hihi, the first song should always be a "weeder". I'm not sure why that wasn't the goal in past tournaments. |

What exactly are you saying? Because I think D1-5 and D7 are perfect, and yeah D6 should have been harder. Every round should weed people out!

Every round should indeed weed people out, but what I'm getting at, is the d2 and d4 files are miles ahead of say... d1/d3/d5.
I don't think d6 should have been harder, but if the goal was to prevent AAA-fests, there's already one forming in D6, so I'm not sure why that principle didn't apply to d6, but it did to the rest. |

In order to avoid far too many people getting AAAs we have harder songs to start out such that it's not a chore playing a boring song that people should be able to easily AAA in the first couple weeks accomplishing nothing Also, the skillgaps across upper divisions are much larger than those of the lower divisions, each level is so much harder to achieve at the higher rankings D6 is just a blender where several people are a couple levels off of D7 (also we have a pretty short file) |

The D3 song is excellent imo coming from a mid-tier D3 player. It's hard enough where I'll never AAA it but not so hard I can't FC it which is exactly where the difficulty should lie imo and should get slightly harder as the tournament moves on.
I shouldn't be AAAing the first 3 rounds. |

I'm to a point now where I'm about to turn this into OSU! where there's just best of the best and that's that. It's pretty ridiculous that no matter what we do it's this constant complaint fest. How about it's a game, sit back enjoy and stop finding things to complain about. Previous tournaments "it's too easy" this tournament "it's too hard" well I guess you all should work your butts off and improve then huh? I warned everyone it was going to get harder, that I wasn't going to sit here and have it be where people come in first round, AAA first or second try and that's that. |

This is not the case. The goal was a nice spread with 1-2 people AAAing with a lot of work, down to the cutoff line where people were really struggling and getting weeded out, as you put it. This isn't really the case in D2 or D6, but it's hard to be perfect. I'm not defending that D6, for example, didn't turn out ideal, but this is definitely the best tournament opening since the site came back online. If you think you can do better, I can go give you a list of the exact scores that people in the next round of certain division should be getting and you can go feel free to step a file that exactly fits that description. It's... pretty hard to do that. Not that people haven't tried in the past. *cough*

Whereas in previous tournaments you only made it to later rounds if you AAA'd the whole first half (or more) of the tournament
This setup is fine (Edit: It may have not looked like it idk internet does that but I am indeed agreeing with you) Last edited by Deidara837; 06-25-2016 at 11:08 PM.. |

Agreed, 100% actually, but as far as D6...
The skill gap in the bracket is so spread out, there should almost be an 8th division. The majority of what I see, is some people SLAUGHTERING other people because of the huge skill jump between D6 & D7. If that's not the case, there should be an A & B division (like TC_Halogen does with his tournaments) to prevent some of those issues. Like I said, just my two cents! I'm not trying to argue with someone, but I don't agree with 75% of the way all of this has been set up so far. I also heard that, depending on how well you do/progress overall, you can be bumped to higher divisions DURING the tournament. Can anyone confirm this? Because I would actually be amazed if that was the reality of getting better with 4k. |
