Placement: 10/60

Thoughts:

Well uh, so I'm definitely not writing this prematurely now. Wooo.

Overall I'm proud of how I did. This is by far the best I've done in an official tournament, and I made my goal of making top 16. I also got myself back into playing FFR instead of quitting, which is what I resolved to do until the night before the tourney even started, so yay!!! I have a new highest AAA now too! Thaaaannnkk yoooouuu Poison of the Earth!

The one thing I didn't like about my performance this tourney though was how easily I gave up when things got tough. The sheer amount of times I wanted to quit playing, especially during Cold Heart, was kinda... not good... oops.
I'll try not to do that next year, and I may begin disciplining myself by setting goals for songs in short periods of time to learn how to properly grind.

My goal for next tourney is to compete in D7. I've been in D6 for over a year now, and this is the longest I've been in a division by a long shot. If I still am a D6 player by the 11th Official though, then I'll be going for the win.

Ooh, and thanks Etienne for cheering me on during the tourney. Now go wreck D7! \o/

See you guys next year!

  1. booo funnygurl boooo
    just play a little every so often, don't force yourself silly. Just play at least once a week to keep the rust off.
    kthnxbai

  2. I recommend a complete annex of all earthly desires. Build a dojo. Live, breathe, become FFR. That is happiness.

  3. i was hoping you'll improve, which i thought you would, until you make this decision, but do whatever makes you happy. Just play FFR once in a while so long as your skill doesn't disprove. i think FFR makes you happy, so don't suspend yourself! ;)

  4. *single tear* ;(

  5. freshmen year of college is the easiest year, try to enjoy it as much as you can.

  6. Nuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu T^T

  7. the grill is burning!

  8. I'm just ghosting it. I also have a blackflag on Lexus Cyanixs ironically.

  9. I started working full time and it felt like I probably wouldn't be able to keep up. I'm still unsure how much I'll play.

  10. It's good, but lots of training. Makes me slightly too tired to do any good on FFR.

  11. Thanks; you, too! Oh, and I'm sure you can surpass your goal for this tournament.
    Round 2 definitely looks scary, haha! Hopefully the steel drums won't kill us.

  12. AAA your damn song already nub

  13. BF every song then, #fuckthescore

  14. Awh, yeah the hype is real. And psh, you're upper D6, you won't have a problem scoring well on these files. I just want these rounds to be over considering I'm AAA'ing them when I open up FFR lmao. #3ez5me

  15. You BF'd it like I said. You're on your way to the money gurl

  16. Haha, thanks! It was rather uneventful, really. I try not to bring it up to anyone just to see if anyone would remember. (I also dislike the attention.) Overall, it was just like any other day, but I'm perfectly fine with that! (And, better late than never, though, right? Thanks again!)

  17. Yeahh I think you're going to hit Round 4. Congrats! Don't stop there, fight your way through to the top.

  18. Have fun with the rest of the tournament. I'll be rooting for you!

  19. Ahh, I'm being honest when I say I can't read that part of the song at all. The rest is definitely an easily obtainable AAA, but I always trip up there no matter how hard or how many times I try. I guess technical(-ish) parts like that are my weakness.

  20. Ah, believe me, I definitely prefer to play casually rather than competitively. It's just not my thing, really. FFR became a part of me when I found it and was heavily into rhythm games, haha. Thanks for being encouraging, though! It's warming on the inside.

  21. I'm having enough trouble reading the streams on this laggy flash player, lol. I can PA 360 streams on SM but can hardly read 300 on FFR, lmao.
    just give me some time yo.

  22. Got it. It took me so many more tries than it needed to.
    Your turn.

  23. Just woke up in the middle of the night for no reason and decided to check the scores and realized HOLY SHIT YOU AAA'D IT.
    The hype is too real.

  24. That miss flag...
    Just wait a few days and play the song on mirror or something to at least somewhat get rid of mindblocks. Quitting right after the song was released is rather silly lol.

  25. Trust me, you got this~

  26. Haha, thanks. I actually decided to play for more than five minutes and got some pretty solid 90's AAA's after that. #3easy5me

  27. Funny for top 8 D6. (Funny, you better stay in as long as me!!!!)

  28. Awh, that sucks :c. But yeah, if you're at that point of frustration where you can't improve it anymore, that's fine. Plenty of us have been through the exact same thing. If you're going back to school as well, then I would definitely suggest that besides getting worked up over a colored mess file, haha.
    #Tiebreakerorriot

  29. Also we should totally MP or something, like next week or whenever you could

  30. Yeah, you're definitely going to the tiebreaker unless three people magically improve their score.

  31. Considering I've flagged two 95's, I'll be fine, haha. As long as it doesn't have anything ridiculously weird I can't do for some reason, but I feel like next round's going to be a long song for once, which is a strong point for me.

  32. One word that makes FFR a joke at times.
    "Stepmania"
    -Choof

  33. Yo, SM's fun. It's kind of a good game to rely on when you start to run out of stuff on FFR to play.

  34. Yeah, SM can take some time to setup with all of the song packs, setting the offset and other shit. Almost forgot about FFRmania.

  35. The tiebreaker is near...

  36. Haha, thanks. It felt really easy for me for some reason.
    Your tiebreaker's rough, wtf... best of luck on that honestly, it's just pure streams.

  37. Oh, well that's awesome to hear then. And yeah, I'm down for some MP tonight.

  38. Oops, read that wrong, lol. Yeah, I'll have to see then for tomorrow. Most likely though

  39. That's my time zone too so I can definitely get on tonight as well!

  40. Alright, sounds good!

  41. Be right there, yo.

  42. 10th place? That's actually pretty solid!

  43. Grats on 10th place gurrrrrrl!

  44. I'm with you on trying to be D7 next tourney... I've been in D6 for 4 tourneys straight now >_>

  45. "Ooh, and thanks Etienne for cheering me on during the tourney. Now go wreck D7! \o/"
    Anytime! And I'll try my best in the finals!

  46. Thank you! And yeah, I'm ridiculously hype for this, especially after losing by a boo in both the 7th and 8th official. Not this time though c:

  47. Thank you!

  48. I DID IT, WHAT THE FUCK

  49. Thanks! I don't think I've ever been more nervous playing a rhythm game in my life then that song, lol. My fingers were shaking from like 500 notes before.
