Z-I-v Simfile Shuffle 2015 — thank you for playing!

Since here is no ITG. I'm not familiar with 11~13 rate of ITG rating. (Of course here is present version of DDR so I'm familiar X-rating 1~19) How to rate ITG style?

---

I rate my charts with the DDRMAX-Supernova2 rating system (1-10).

@vincentw/@Scarz Do you plan on participating in the contest yourself at some point? I know you two submitted files in round 1 and round 2 of Simfile Shuffle 2014 respectively....

A 13 on the ITG scale would be like an 18 on the X-Scale, ITG 12 would be a DDR 17, and an ITG 11 would be a DDR 16.

Hopefully, I'll add some notes for each of the stepfiles later.

On another note, I think it's too late to advertise my stepfile, but I will say that it was not exactly my cup of tea, and that the standard chart has some patterns somewhat reminiscent of DXY's heavy charts.

---

Not only were the gimmicks forced, but they were also very hard to read, which is probably the bigger issue. The slowdown on the final hold notes is completely fine though, they look good and I don't see them causing any issues so yeah

---

I'm glad I at least got some sort of clarification what I did wrong, though. The only clue I got was Telperion putting my file as the worst on his ranks, and even then, I didn't know what caused it. Syncing issues? Poor patterns? The BPM changes? Something else?

Mine also has a global offset of GlobalOffsetSeconds=0.000000 and DJXYZ's Guns & Roses file was off-sync. :/

In 4 hours, ROUND D will start.
Please submit a file if you plan to join in!


I don't think I will this year. I'll stick with co-hosting and backups. I don't know about Scarz, though.

Here's a file, dropping out for this week. May at least leave reviews for the round C files.

---

And here's everyone else:
(see spreadsheet for text version. NV: no vote • DQ: disqualified • NS: no steps • VT: vetoed)

I hope you had a great Thanksgiving week! D is for December, so get festive!


10 files remain in the backup pile, and it's open for submissions from everyone!

I think I'll get this one done much sooner.

Shoot, I missed the submission time. I'd like to buy in this round.

It's Super Eurobeat time! All right!

A question to all players in [ROUND E]- I have 2 files ready for submission, both 192kbps .ogg songs. One is an original song and the other is a video game song. Which should I submit for the week?

---

Thanks for everyone who voted for Prismatic Lollipops! It didn't finish in the top places but it's good to know the effort was appreciated.

I had mentioned that KagKag from Round A was miscut. I went ahead and recut it myself. What's the best way to contribute back the new sound file (updating the current pack myself, for example)?

For "One Last Time" from Round B, I changed the timing to -0.411 myself. I also cut the official video to match the length of the songs. It isn't one long cut like the original video, but I kept the important parts, such as Ariana Grande getting hit by a comet. Anything I can do with that?

@DJXYZ personally I think we have so many bemani or video game files that I'd rather hear an original song for Round E.

@CuzcoBlocko I agree about the repeated steps in Electroman being the one part of that sim which doesn't have nice flow. I was thinking of it as practice for The Legend of Max.
