I will hopefully remember to re-add this into the rules for next BM.

Perhaps add on "Also, files must not have been entered into other Tournaments or Community Packs".
I would be guilty of this rule, but got away with it since I entered the sim after BM2 completely finished. Just a thought.

I am actually downloading this because of The "Sugar before Bedtime" Polka.

Why restrict globally, when we should only restrict to BM and OSC. (besides, DDREvolved is still a different site, though same members of the community)

It is really "make a NEW simfile" that hard of a requirement? :?

After finishing the download... FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUU

I thought it he made a new simfile... Misunderstood then. I thought BlueSS was referring to songs, and not files.

For me, entering a pre-made simfile like that in an another tournament has always been a no. That's why I always regard that as a standard everywhere else.

I gotta say I completely disagree with jammitch!'s assessment of 24/7's slowdown and "flow." I thought it flowed remarkably well. I also though the slowdown and the steps within it were pretty much dead on.

Why would you want it to follow that synth? It would have seemed awkward and bad. I'm not sure who the author was but I thought they made a good decision.

I do agree about the jaggies in the graphics, though. That's a Photoshop problem and the primary reason people shouldn't use Photoshop to do graphics with 1px strokes. :P
This special title makes me look cool.

I was also a bit confused as to why you guys didn't get the slowdown in 24/7. The drum line actually stops and I felt there was no reason for me to keep the speed up at 170 BPM. I was actually expecting someone to say something about it, though, since speedups/slowdowns can't please everyone.

I also have to say that Gee's BPM changes were perfect, but you guys seemed to dislike them as well. I don't know why BPM changes are such a bad thing. If the song merits them, there should be no reason not to include them and I really don't think BPM changes that are used at the right time would ever ruin a player's flow.

But anyway, I really appreciate the video reviews. It takes time to do them (especially on the slow YouTube uploader, ugh :roll:), and its always nice to see a video of your simfile being played by someone else.

Don't you know? If you can't tri-star a song on a sightread, then the file is bad.

You've got to remember that from each of those charts I played were only played once. I'll give more details sooner or later when I come back and fully critique each of them. Maybe I should'nt have posted them too early, but I just wanted to reserve a spot. I can guarantee you the changes I see on your chart may change, but yeah; I kinda felt woozy last night, with all the humidity and all. -_-

I'm planning to replay a bunch of these, as I ended up waffling on a ton of ratings this time, so don't get too hung up on the comments until the numbers are up.

@ Evan: I didn't say to follow the synth, just that I didn't like the slowdown. It may grow on me. Either way, I was planning on giving it a relatively good rating, so like I said, wait for numbers before getting too upset. :D

EDIT: I played it again, same opinion.

@jammitch!
regarding your comments, IIRC, Moonlight Shadow from 5th mix had some pretty complex cross-overs and gallops and was rated a 6. Maybe sanchny was going for a deadly double combination of my generation and moonlight shadow with his file.
Also, what theme do you use?
