Even if you're kidding, I still wish I was in this round.
well i could fc if i played it with the intention of fcing it but i'd end up with 15+ goods then

when i try to get like 6 goods or less i always wind up average rushing a jack or something (srs) or getting a random miss somewhere

I call BS on all of D1 who has an AAA. Prove your legitimacy. You shouldn't be AAAing this if you're in D1.

I'm not playing. This is absolutely ridiculous. D1's final song in last year's tournament was a 9.

We have people AAAing 10s and it's not the final. I'm not being sarcastic at all.

Actually, I performed about as well as I'd hoped in D1. (Lucky for me, all the BS players were above the line I expected to reach.)
Looking at the previous tournament, I thought I'd be strong enough to barely earn top 16 and almost definitely not make top 8. Well, I passed the Round-of-16 cutoff and earned some new AAAs, so I'm happy. I can't complain about the BS players 'cause nobody saw that coming.
What would I do with vRofl anyway?

Yhe, it's pretty ridiculous.

I mean, I know it can be said I should not have been in d1. I had not played ffr apart from the odd games for a loooong time and saw this tourney as a chance to sharpen up my skills, and start playing properly again - I never assumed I would get this far. Turns out some people must have been hiding their skills, surely you can't aaa this sort of song first try if you haven't played in a while?

Also, I don't want people to think this is me moaning as I was leading for a while, I don't even really care about the prizes too much, just was in for the fun comp. Of course I'm going to see if I can plug away for top 5, but I doubt it.

It's pretty obvious that D1 is just a heap of players who were hiding their skills. D1 didn't have an AAA on their final song last year, and it was a 9. We're not at the finals and D1 is still on an AAA rampage on a 10. It's like D1 is playing D2's tournament. O_o

What about a member-year cutoff and a minimum songs-played and activity metric so that:

1. There's enough data to make a proper skill assessment
2. Over a sufficient time period, it should also strengthen that data's accuracy
3. If that data is consistent with a time horizon that is close to the start of the tourney, it prevents people from sandbagging based on absence
