It will be right when I get less busy with graduation and job interviews.

I'll be giving two 👍s and one 👑 per round, as usual.

==Round 1==

D7: The End of Dreams (Cut Ver.) (4-0-0-1)

Preview: that's a lot of notes

Play: The backload or stamina wasn't a big problem for me, but the mix of 12ths, 16ths, and 24ths made it hard to hit accurately. I think 4.2 would be fine for round 1 though.

D2 Pleiades East West Mass Rapid Transit Line (AAA)
D3 Claiomh Solais (AAA) Fun fact: this is not a BMS song
D4 Clocktown (AAA) 👍 New stepartist!
D5 introspect (AAA) 👍
D6 Necroxus (AAA)
D8 sub/zero (28-0-7-1) 👑

What a strong opening round. I can't pick just 3 favorites, so assume I gave 👍 to every chart for now and I'll come back with actual picks by the end of this round. Also glad to see that my D8 chart is getting a good reception this time.

ok i came back and i'm gonna give 👑 to my own chart and nobody can stop me

==Round 2==

D7: Angel's Salad (5-1-0-1)

Preview: Welp, time to get eliminated from my own chart. My PB is 6.6 and I don't think I can SDG currently...

This is 93???

Play: Close to PB, but idk I'll just accept the honor of getting eliminated from a BMS song 4 times in a row as a former BMS player.

Well I'm actually trying to survive but now that I think about it, this chart was actively designed to trip myself up every second. Irregular beats is my big weak point, and these patterns are not something I'm very good at either... I was surprised when I got 6.6 during playtesting and even that is below the cutoff!

D2 Circle (AAA) 👍
D3 Who Likes to Party (AAA)
D4 yarn ball (AAA)
D5 Dysthymia (AAA) FFR player's song!
D6 Parallel Skydive (2-0-0-0) 👑 New stepartist! In FFR anyway. I've heard good things about Zeta and this chart does prove it.
D8 99.9 (Eurobeat Remix) (79-1-8-3) 👍

Oh god 100+ chordjack is finally coming to FFR lol

Illumination Reel is awesome. I predict it would be my favorite bonus file for this OT, even until round 8.

D7 Illegal Trap (8-0-2-3) 👍 Beat my PB on the entire 100+??
