    I enjoyed Truth.
    Way easier than it was first rated, but it's a good file.

    The pink arrows to the whooshy wub sound in the start are a little weird to hit and there's occasional white arrows in the slow parts that I'm not sure what they go to, but overall its hard to complain about the file.

      Fill me up was great, but the song that surprised me the most, as counter-intuitive as it may seem, was Rainbow Road. I have yet to see another easy file as engaging as this one. Terrific song choice, to say the least. Right up there with Trisection, for my tastes.

      Solid releases, I enjoyed all of them.

        pandemonium feels weird. maybe because i stepped the song, but it feels like there's alot of stuff going on that i've never heard in the song

        got bmah'ed by the D6 file, gg misses

        sightread D5 file, wasn't bad

          pandemonium - today marks the day where we can no longer put our trust in cornman files, because this was so bmahy it literally caused me to double take. that middle section is a huge pain in the ass to hit correctly, but feels really good once you're able to do so. having different patterns in the ending than in the beginning of the chart helps to curb mindblocks, so that was cool. only gripe I had was with the 32nds, they were pretty lel-tier. i'd give it an 8/10

            Honestly this is exactly how I feel about the file myself. I'm really happy with the middle section and I'm glad you noticed the different patterns in the two choruses. Obviously I went overboard with the 32nds.
            I give your review a 10/10.

                That said:

                Division 1: Rainbow Road [nanobii] by TC_Halogen

                I hate this file for one reason, and while I understand why, I hate you for it nonetheless: where are the fucking rainbow notes you jackass.

                Jokes aside, pretty good D1 file from what I can see.

                Division 2: Polargeist by TC_Halogen

                Didn't finish this one. But it was kinda bleh? Probably just me.

                Division 3: Session (Ghost in the Machine Remix) by VisD

                Very good file. I enjoyed this one a lot. I am curious as to why you opted not to use hands anywhere, but the file is really great as it is. Just kinda curious.

                Division 5: Truth (xKore Remix) by Xiz and Razor

                Xiz asked me to play this live in call but I'll post it here anyways.

                It was kinda a letdown. It was a broken JS song with a really negligible middle section. tldr: it was pretty boring to me. Which is weird considering who charted it. Not saying it's a bad file, but it's just not... Engaging I think is the way I'll phrase it.

                The rest: N/A

                  Re: 10th Official FFR Tournament - Round 1 Songs

                  there's a piano roll at the end of the hand section of pandemonium, and it pisses me off that the 32nd split roll starts halfway through the actual piano roll

                  D4 - gameboy you have been becoming my favorite stepartist i think recently. only solidifies my opinion (A+ song choice)

                      D3s and D4s files are pretty awesome, D5s not really all that memorable but not bad, D1 song pretty sweet and easy file okay, D2s middle section had some bad pr which kinda annoyed me but file was decent, D6 has some pretty obnoxious bursts and should be rated higher than Guile of the Rime King, D7s no.

                        Weakest file imo was the Session remix. The song was pretty lackluster, which affects the file itself.
                        I legitimately had to quit out of Lex Cyanixs because of all the dbGlitch abuse (srsly people, lrn2glitch manually).
                        Truth was kinda cool, although I had an issue with the kicks during the 12ths being placed on a 12th when it's actually on an 8th. Would have given the file a bit more playability, and imo, would have been less awkward.
                        Rainbow Road and Polargeist were pretty standard low difficulty files, nothing too crazy there. Felt like Rainbow Road was just a tad bit too long.
                        Already posted my thoughts on Pandemonium, it's tricky, frustrating, and pretty satisfying when you nail it.
                        My favorite file would also have to be Fill Me Up With Snacky Happiness lol, cute song and a neat file to go with it.

                          I guess I might drop this as well:

                            D3, song was boring, file suffered as a result
                            D2 was ok for a easier difficulty song, D1 fit alooot better with the song, and the song lends itself better for an easier file

                            but D1 feels like pretty high up for where D1 is usually round 1
