I think round 3 tiebreaker is a bad choice due to shitty 1/8 sliders and OD6

The other map we had down was far too easy. I think this serves well as a gimmicky map that will cause score differences in more ways than just whoever gets an SS.

Don't let your match get to tiebreaker this time ;)
wouldn't have to if i wouldn't have to fail maps on purpose ww

In any case, most of the matches don't come down to accuracy anyways due to nerves, but missing to gimmicky things is just annoying. I'm not talking about the swingy nature of the map or some of the weird rhythms, but specifically really short sliders that are hard to read properly and hit consistently. I don't think the map is even particularly hard, but it has things in there that are a pain in the ass to play (this was the case with pavor noctornus last year when i played - i played the map perfectly fine except for missing random buzz sliders just because... buzz sliders. i thought that was an awful tiebreaker choice also.)

oh and also did i mention it's a DT map

Details on what will be happening in the quarter/semi/grandfinal rounds.

These matches will be streamed by ztrot! These matches will also (hopefully) happen in an hourly order for streaming consistency.
Example:

Match 1 6:00PM
Match 2 7:00PM
Match 3 8:00PM
etc...

There is a possibility of commentary, but not for sure yet.

Scheduling might be tight, so try and be as free as possible over the next few weekends if you are participating in those rounds.
(I will probably setup a skype group or something so we can all stay in touch and get things working as clean as possible!)

Also, anyone that makes it into the Quarterfinal round this year will earn a guaranteed spot in next year's tournament. (NAT 2015) And possibly be part of the top seed.

There are a few things you will notice about this upcoming round's map pool.

For one, you will see that there are three fewer Nomod maps this round. Instead, we have opted to provide a third map for each of the Hidden, Hard Rock, and Doubletime pools, to give you players more flexibility in your choices. As such, the total size of the map pool remains the same (15 maps).

More salient, however, will probably be the sudden (big) increase in difficulty from R3 to R4. Actually, from the very beginning of the tournament, we tried to pick maps that the "average" participant in each round would be able to clear, but probably not FC. However, a quick comparison between the participants of Round 3 and the participants of Round 4 reveals that the "average" skill level has drastically gone up between these two rounds. So, it is only fitting to accompany this with a step up in difficulty. Hopefully these maps will not be too boring for you.

But if they are, don't worry, we'll make things harder. Just make sure to win this round to go on.

Without further ado, we present to you the...

We will be taking a break this weekend because some players will be absent and I need more time to schedule the stream times.

Quarterfinals will begin either Saturday the 19th or Sunday the 20th.

Sorry about poofing last night^

My power went out and I had to work in the morning. So I just got back to a charged phone and laptop. ..heh.

Good to see it still happened, thanks Mittens :c

Congrats, TrickMirror~

Nijigen Dream Fever has been removed from the hard rock pool for semifinal round. Probably nothing will take its place. Everyone else (RLC) is MIA so I have nobody to discuss an alternative with right now. It's only tuesday, so maybe something else will get added.
