All songs are Double play charts, using Random key modifier, and have a rating of at least 12. Songs in the courses are selected at random. For most songs which have multiple 12 ratings, I modify it so that the highest type of chart (Black or Another) is the only 12; that way I play the hardest version of the song and ensure I don't play it twice in the same course.

Courses are played with the 100% Gauge. Yes, this is glorified practice.

Scores are given as: EX; J Great, Great, Good, Bad, Poor, Max Combo, Letter Rating

jesus, no. 13, colorful cookie, genocide, binary rendezvous

The only thing really special about Jesus (besides the whole crucifixion thing) are the hold notes at the end of the song - at least the hold notes make sense in context. Not so bad with #13 but I usually do better I think. Had a very fortunate roll with Color Cookie as most randoms are very problematic with the chart, but a lot of my chords weren't pinches. Genocide was mostly a mess, as per usual. Rendezvous went ok enough I guess.

G2, 物怪舞踏, bad maniacs, brainstorm, concertino in blue

Came out of G2 at 62%, and that's with a lot of 23 rolly shit on the left side for some stretches as well as a lot of bouncing between 45 and 56 for some chord percussion. Wasn't a very good roll but there's enough cake otherwise to keep things high. I think I got up to 65% with mononoke there. Bad Maniacs took it to 60%. Had better scratching with Brainstorm. Lot of flailing on bad chords with tino. OK courses so far.

kamaitachi, CaptivAte2~覚醒~, calls, blocks, rizing you up

I think I did very well with Kamaitachi, as it seems like I had good timing and did get more comboed than what I think is usual. Came out just under an A at 65%. Some flailing with captivate. Calls comes back with a shitty roll. Blocks I had no answer for that ending, but good to see it come up for a change. Rizing You Up almost lived to the title yet again, bringing me close to the Ace. With the right hand I lot of chords which bounced off of 56, which I seemed to hit more often than not, as far as I can tell. Keep rolling.

paranoia hades, 嘆きの樹, tokyo banging, paradise lost, beginning of sound

Rough course. I seemed to do ok at the first half of paranoia but no answer for the last. I think I did a lot worse at nageki except, naturally, for the ending reprise where it seemed like I was just a bit cleaner. Tokyo Banging is a dumb song and was no help to the overall rate. Paradise Lost has a bunch of hold note crap but this time I seemed to get it better, at least the start of the second half where you hold one note while doing other things for a sixteen bar stretch. Beginning Of Sound has a climax which builds on you playing eighth-note triads over and over again which shows up in the middle of chords at the end. Not pretty.

Saw 165 BPM on load. Feared it was kamaitachi. Affirmed. Abort. Next.

rislim remix, milly baril, holic, 瑠璃色小箱, kung-fu empire

Out of rislim remix with a 70% A. What does Milly Baril take me down to? A fucking 48% C. That fucking chart. Not only does it do a chordstorm which I should be able to time but never can, it does the full barline grid gimmick at the end. Fuck you. Well, regardless, it makes something like holic look like a piece of cake afterward, even if it still isn't. Lapis was ordinary, and kung fu was better in some spots than others. At least I made it back up to 56% or something at the end. Yeesh.

In closing I leave you a picture of what my brain does when songs like Milly Baril come up.
