Z-I-v Summer Contest 2017 [GAME OVER, YEAAAHHH]

If the song is also a remix, does the X in 'remix' count?

---

Title, not subtitle. So no.

Yoooooo, wasn't expecting that one haha. Thanks for all the support, and to Loodee and ddrstepper for their detailed feedback in earlier weeks! Well this is actually really convenient since I wanted to work on something for Technical Showcase 2, so it seems I've bought myself some time.

For that reason, I may not submit the last 2 weeks but I'll be back with a vengeance for the finals since I'm locked in. That being said I'm going to vote for certain on all the last weeks as a mental exercise so my review offer is totally still open if you want one, will probably take some more detailed notes for these last 3 votes to post after the voting periods end.

Also holy shit this theme is amazing, I was contemplating that if I ever had the chance I'd do something like this but I didn't think I'd actually see it. I'm a sucker for complicated rulesets.

These alone really make the song selection the hardest part of this week. So many wonderful choices I have had in mind that follow just song requirements, and the chart requirements just make it much more enticing to try a song genre without limits.

Yes. There is such thing as Vietnamese rap. This is more trappy, though.

Some context behind the artist: Suboi is a Vietnamese rapper and the first Vietnamese female rapper to become successful in her country. She is considered Vietnam's queen of hip hop. I was first introduced to her from The Gregory Brothers' first episode of Song Voyage (which you can check out here. I definitely recommend the series). I then went to check out her discography (thank god her stuff is on SoundCloud), and I ended up loving her stuff.

So what checks off from the requirements listed?
O Your song must contain vocals, but the vocals cannot be in English, Japanese or Korean.
O Your song must be completely under 100 BPM, with no cheesing allowed.
O Your file must contain 5 jumps or fewer on its hardest singles chart.
O Your file must contain 5 freeze arrows or fewer on its hardest singles chart.
O Your file must contain all difficulties, Beginner through Challenge.
O Your hardest chart must contain more 8ths/12ths/16ths/etc than 4ths. (Thanks vincentw for pointing that out)

Enjoy some Vietnamese rap I guess

Is 210BPM song will be fine?

As long as it feels right at 210, and doesn't drop below 200, then...yeah. Of course it is.

Honestly, I didn't expect this since I'm a little bit worried about my simfiles before the results are announced. But I'm glad it's fared well than I thought. Thanks for all your support for bringing them to the 3rd place!

Actually, I had a question.
Does 幾四音-Ixion- qualifies for that criteria? I'm worried that it's doesn't fit for that criteria. Thanks!

Just tested it now out of curiosity, it crashes 3.95 immediately so it seems to be 5 only fyi.

---

I'm reuploading it now. The attacks weren't working properly, so I deleted the .ssc file. But I also made a slight change to them so please redownload if you downloaded it already. First time doing something like this, so

Just grab the updated .sm and delete the .ssc if you don't want to redownload everything: https://mega.nz/#!PQck0ZgK!bcD564VmZ4e8CKCqr0wSnqTS8VLqmzRG1ccYdc6RynI

And I didn't vote!!! I've been very busy this past week so I wasn't able to do much online

I have a question!!
Can my simfile have stops?

I have one ready made already for this competition, but I need to know if I can leave the stops as is or remove them.

---

Seeing how much better than expected Scatman's World (20th Century Boys) turned out to be, anyone who's willing to give me detailed feedback on it, feel free to PM me.

---

The true BPM of the song is actually 60 2/3, but since SM doesn't support 36th notes (at least I think they're 36ths), I had to scale the BPM by x1.5. Regardless, this file fulfills all of these requirements in particular:

- Your hardest chart must be a 7 or lower.
- Your song must be completely under 100 BPM, with no cheesing allowed.
- Your file must contain 5 jumps or fewer on its hardest singles chart. (In my case, zero jumps across all charts! )
- Your file must contain all difficulties, Beginner through Challenge.
- Your hardest chart must contain more 8ths/12ths/16ths/etc than 4ths.

Also, I think this is the first time that I actually made completely custom graphics for a simfile. Granted, slapping some text on top of a stock image of red flowers was pretty easy to do, but it's something.

---

I didn't say you can't have stops

---

Is it cool if I join for these last two weeks? Late as hell, I know, but I'd like to take part to see if I don't suck at charting anymore and get feedback and such.

---

You're in.

LOS PLATOS:
- Your song must contain vocals, but the vocals cannot be in English, Japanese or Korean.
La Gozadera es en Español.
- Your song must be completely under 100 BPM, with no cheesing allowed.
It's 95 BPM.
- Your file must contain 5 freeze arrows or fewer on its hardest singles chart.
Both and have exactly 5 freeze arrows.
- Your file must contain all difficulties, Beginner through Challenge.
They all decided to show up for dinner tonight.
- At least one of your charts has a notecount including jumps that is EXACTLY a multiple of 100.
totals to 300. 299 combo, 1 jump.
hopefully i didn't butcher my spanish up above
EDIT:
- Your hardest chart must contain more 8ths/12ths/16ths/etc than 4ths.
As vincentw pointed out to me, has 178/617 4th notes.
I think los platos refers to literal dishes that you eat on rather than food...
