8th Official FFR Tournament - Divisions 1, 2, & 3 Discussion Thread

[Garquillex]

Suggestion: Give divisions 1-3 their own thread. It would help us talk to each other a lot. 4-7 have a monopoly by volume in the current thread. I think letting the lower div players have more opportunity to talk is great for morale and general enjoyment.

I've had fun talking in the new years and the skill booster tourneys, but there's so many more players in the official and so much more to sift through to find D1-3 talk if there's only one topic

And I really appreciate all the work you put into placements <3

You guys are welcome to make a thread if you'd like. I don't really make a bunch of "official" threads for the tournament because I like being able to find the information in one place. But if you guys want a place to chat go right ahead

How's the tourney going for us lower-division players?

It took me 42 attempts to get the AAA in D2. Harder than expected...

Oof, sorry to hear that Garquillex! I got it on my 2nd playthrough after getting 4-0-0-1 the first time. I like Silvuh files in general though. Excited to see what we have next round.

Yeah, I had some trouble with that song too. Didn't really like the music and the grace notes always give me goods. I think I had 30 something plays.

This is a great idea Tourney is going good so far, I did not expect to AAA division 3's song at all mainly because my highest AAA before that was a 35. I got goodflags? on a few higher 40's but I mainly thought it was just luck :/ It took me about 3 full attempts and a few restarts to get it. I haven't tried D2's song yet but I heard it was kind of an iffy one.

I got a Blackflag on my first run of the D3 song and took me like 75 more attempts to get the AAA... Dunno why I mindblocked so hard :\

Song/chart was good though ^^

Lol I kept splitting the jumps on the D3 song so I was stuck with 2g for a while. AAA'd it eventually, but I had to switch the noteskin XD

Good luck Divisions 1-3!! Let me know if you would like some advice/tips from me (if I could even provide some haha)

Re: 8th Official FFR Tournament - Divisions 1, 2, &amp; 3 Discussion Thread

Just played through d2's, yeah that's a little confusing of a song. The grace notes I think before or after the jumps somewhere in the middle made me get a good.

I play with Velocity, but I switched to Orbular and I somehow got the AAA ahaha. I'm guessing it's because it doesnt look how I'm used to seeing it, so I was more alert when the notes came.

Re: 8th Official FFR Tournament - Divisions 1, 2, &amp; 3 Discussion Thread

Ah. I switched from Velo to Delta a while back

I never had a problem with the grace notes in D2. It was just patterns in the last third of the song. They were new to me, or just awkward

Re: 8th Official FFR Tournament - Divisions 1, 2, &amp; 3 Discussion Thread

D2's song is evil >_> About 20+ retries and can't get past 1 good lol Though I never was good at AAA'ing piano/classical :/
