2022 Tourney
Posted on: July 1, 2022, at 12:43:16am

Here's where I'll jot down my thoughts for OT 15.

Week 1 (Song: Walking the Streets of a Former Hell):

Oh my god!?? I actually AAA'ed the first song of the D5 tourney! I'm so ecstatic about that!! :D I'd say it was definitely a fun song to kick things off overall, there was a scary trill in the middle, but otherwise, it felt mostly stream-y, which is usually my favorite kind of level to play! Idk how far I will or won't be able to go on until, but whatever the result, I'm already satisfied. This is my first ever tourney I participated in, and I AAA'ed my first ever active tourney level I played!

Week 2 (Song: GLAZ):

Well, things already escalated a bit here. A kinda jacky ending this one has, but after seeing the preview, I was expecting to possibly SDG this one, and I did (7 goods) but I may be keeping that lucky record, as I'm suddenly mind blocked now when I try to replay it, not by the jacks surprisingly, but by the huge spike in arrows just before the bulk of the jacks start. (And I'm pretty sure I'm missing the exact same 2 notes there over and over now too) Fingers crossed that my first full run will cut it!

Week 3: (Song: The Friendly Wolf (Part 1)):

Wow! Ok! What a shocking change from round 2, I was going into round 3 expecting a bad score after what I was seeing in the preview, and I come out with a 3 good SDG! This had a few hit or miss jack stretches, and a ton of rolls in this level, but they didn't feel as bad as I anticipated. Overall, not too bad of a level to play. Now, I feel like it's unlikely that I'm gonna top a raw good count of 3, but I'm quite satisfied with this. Hope it'll be enough to keep a decent position moving into round 4!

Week 4: (Song: Evanescent)

We got a jumpstream level this week boii! We're up to a 79 difficulty now, and I started off having 6 goods on it, but before I even typed this, I got a 5 good record now instead. And, what's crazier here: this level actually just gave me my new #1 AAA equivalency ever too! (76.36! Old highest was 75.84.) There's not many cases where I can efficiently play a 79 difficulty, it's atually almost out of my FC'able range, but again, it's a JS level, and that's one of my stronger areas, so I've got hope! The quest for top 16 is looking pretty good now! It's possible to maybe improve that 5 good PB still, but if I don't, I'm keeping my fingers crossed hard that it'll be enough for the top 16 token/achievement!

Week 5: N/A (eliminated round)
