Worst DDR Chart Tournament Redux [Tournament Closed]

LOVE THIS FEELIN' : 1
NGO : 13
Take Me : 10
Wowie Zowie! : 4

I don't buy for even a moment Take Me having that many votes because of one second of fuckery. And I don't remember anything egregiously bad about the Zowie.

---

The thing is I feel like LOVE THIS FEELIN' is bad but most hard charts from that era are similarly bad to the point it all blends together and I can't find anything... noteworthy about it. It's just all three-out-of-ten sludge, so it makes it hard to vote for in a "worst of all time" thing. Like, Dynamite Rave, Afronova, Paranoia Max Dirty Mix... all actual trash charts.

---

Outside of those few notes that go to literally nothing, there is absolutely nothing positive or memorable about Take Me's chart. It is pure CS filler

Feels cheap to double vote NGO but there's some little things I like in the other three charts. NGO is just nasty all the way through.

While I do think that Love This Feelin' has some odd foot placements, aside from that, I don't think it's that bad of a chart. There's most definitely worse out there. If anything, it's rather empty for a song of its speed. I do feel like the ending should be 12ths instead of 8ths, though. Feel like a Challenge chart would remedy some of the problems.

Love this Feelin' has some bad sync issues but the chart is ok. Same for wowie Zowie. Clearly nowhere as bad as the other 2 songs in this pool. Giving both my votes to Take Me because you know what, at least NGO sounds cool. Take Me just makes my ears bleed, and we all know NGO is gonna make it far anyway.

It's hard to say I think one should win over the other because they're terrible for different reasons. Eh, who am I kidding? They're both quite underwhelming in terms of being terrible nowadays anyway.

I nominated it because all the obvious picks had been taken by that point and I just don't understand how a chart made this year could still get 24th rhythms wrong. How did they properly time the spoken word parts of Usatei but then chart all the 24ths as 16ths here?

They probably mixed them up and gave the 24ths to Reiwa instead lol

I KNOW NGO has sync issues and those ugly ass step-jumps but Take Me clearly has zero effort put into its creation, and also has this section of silence where they throw in a 16th run?? Undeserved. Terrible. Horrendous

How does everyone feel about giving 3 points to first place and 2 to second in the next matches? It's a little more complicated but it'd help prevent ties and make it clearer who got first versus second.

I can't believe they did the 12ths/24ths = 16ths thing in current year. They've had 23 1/2 years to get it right! NGO and Take Me are terrible too but Wowie deserves to be closer to them.

Take Me has the notes in silence but it's also just a bad chart.

NGO : 18
Take Me : 15

LOVE THIS FEELIN' : 1

The winner is NGO! Mr. Potato Mic will advance to the knockout round. Take Me got a respectable second place.

VOTING CHANGES

From now on, give 3 points to your first place winner and 2 to your second placer. Or give all 5 points to your first placer. We'll see if that works out. If everyone hates it we'll go back.

Looks like everyone wants to vote by post so we'll keep doing that unless the mods say no. One person still wants to vote by PM so I'll add their votes in.

Our next match is an exciting one with multiple contenders who could go far. But they'll have to beat each other first...

Voting against my own nomination here because the competition is too stiff.

I won't take this trigger slander, she's doing her best. Also what on earth is shades of gray doing here?

Not a fan of X-Special either though I feel like I'd at least learn something from trying to figure it out.

+3 MAX 300 X-Special
+2 Trigger

Oddly enough I like Max 300 X-Special more than Trigger, but that's mostly for trying things that they eventually got a better handle on charting. It really is quite a mess and super unfriendly to play without some serious study.

MAX 300 X-Special is one of the worst charts Konami ever made, but Shades of Grey also deserves a shoutout for feeling like it was autogenned.

Cytokinesis is undercharted, Shades of Grey is lazy and Trigger is pushing it at points but that x-special is just...dumb

Gee, I wonder what chart's winning this one.
