"Give me a steady beat."
Note to self: Step songs that start with the letter A, so people reviewing don't just hate reviewing in general by the time they get to yours.

Quaver - This was really really good, the doubletaps merged with crossovers in this instance DIDN'T
feel like effort or unfun to play, most likely because it didn't have the jumps. The gallops section was good, and it
worked because it felt like it had a purpose the way you kept switching. And at the end, the merging of the two styles was good too,
and (this is just one of the "things" I like about charts) the ending was a harder version of the beginning which is how it imo should be in charts.
This is one of my favourites.
Taka's comments: Wow, that's actually really nice. That bit at the end wasn't necessary though!

1st - Quaver

do you understand what you just gave points to

that was a terrible set of reviews

I'd honestly call this week entirely shitted up!
Sorry to everyone we put through that, it was a very stressful day.

Actually, we liked yerbaderpo, I think it's just "if the song is too far down and it's being reviewed at ~5am, it should be a 9+ or be more varied rhythmically"

EDIT: wooooooow. Note to self, review in two batches and not at 5AM ever again

Taka's comments: Whoever made this banner they are actually brass LOL
ooh I like this chart *almost fails*
Actually no, it's rather repetitive. I liked it at first but then it got repetitive.
I like the turns in it though, they're really fun.

Wut.

I actually made the chart repetitive on purpose to avoid following the song's schizophrenic rap part. Tongue

Yeah, and I can understand that, it's more down to the song choice (´・ω・`)

Not enough variation, quite a bit of doublestepping.
Sure, your direction facing changed a lot, but the patterns were like staircases the entire time
with one or two ldrdl crossovers.
Taka's comments: doublesteps

I didn't completely get you when you mentioned doublesteps. And the variation, I have to try hard. Cause I just want to perfect my skills and stuff.

Taro's comments: Hmm, fadeout end isn't the best way to end a song cut!

Yeah, the song itself faded out too so I kind of didn't have much of a choice. Sorry.

@Dreamland200: A doublestep is the use of one foot to hit two arrows in a row.
It can be used well, but a lot of the time it's really jarring and can really break a chart's flow.

For example, the measure 22/23 contains a single doublestep, because you do an RDL, then staircase LDUR, which is fine, but then the next steps go LU, which is very jarring because I was already facing right from RDL, and I don't want to spin around at that speed onto the next arrows. Because I try to crossover everything, this ends up fucking up a potential PFC or even FC when it occurs on pad, unless I doublestep (use the same foot to hit two arrows), which isn't as much fun.

meanwhile,

The thing as a whole doesn't feel as hard as it should be :L It's not too interesting (doesn't stand out as polished)
The sampling section was alright before it became only jumps, I was expecting a bit of everything
(instead of only jumps) to match the song better though.
Taka's comments: Welp, never seen any Solid State Squad charts before >_>
It's all right. It's also a bit offsync...


Sweetest Savage - UNKNOWN ARTIST FAIL. I really like the song though. Nice crossover stream bit though!
Taka's comments: It's alright, too many jumps too many many jumps though.

I'm sorry, who is Taka exactly? Because frankly I'm not fond of his "yawn, not impressed" reviewing style.

(to be fair, it was 5AM, and I did make him keep playing them even though we were both falling asleep. He doesn't normally review, he wanted to just post his top 5.)
(Also, he was writing his own reviews which would probably have been slightly less harsh, when his laptop died while playing one of the songs and he lost the file lol)

He is, according to his profile, a full-time pimp.

Seems legit :v

Also this is my first post in this thread, even though I am in no way shape or form participating in this contest at all since I have no simfile creative ability and if I were to actually make simfiles, they would be utter shit. So best of luck to ye all Smile

It was 5am and tbh I was so tired of reviewing but Taro kinda forced me to continue.
You shouldn't take what I think too seriously though, but I do stick with my actual comments on the charts.

@Taro ;; I'm not angry, but seriously quaver is an abomination on anything besides Expert and the sync is screwed up beyond belief... I didn't even expect one vote for that file Tongue
but now that you got quaver out of your system go play something good like literally ANYTHING ELSE well not anything but. You know.

Also. Song choice played a MASSIVE ROLE in this week because most of the files were kind of ehhhh.
