Just a reminder to post your scores here instead of this thread. Not that it matters very much, it's moreso for organisational purposes. Added your score anyway, just keep that in mind next time.

Someone initially wanted to make backgrounds for 4th dan and beyond (he made the first three sets of backgrounds) but he didn't follow up on that and I didn't really poke him for any backgrounds because I don't think it matters very much to begin with.

I found submitted maps with bgs. Are these ok to use? They're clones of the actual maps.

I've only played 1 month and I got 95.5% on 3 dan but for this entire month I've been playing 4-7 hours a day everyday mostly unranked. How much do you actually play?

Yeah, I saw those backgrounds too. Didn't really want to use them because they're really really badly designed - lots of contrasting pictures with little borders to mitigate that and the Calibri textjob isn't really pleasant either.

I don't mind if people decide to submit scores under those submitted maps though, but I don't really want to use those backgrounds as "official" backgrounds because I feel that they don't look clean in the slightest.

Does anyone else feel that Candy Galy is an inappropriate choice for the 4th dan boss map? I know it's supposed to be the hardest map of the set, but bangin burst as the 1 dan set didn't feel at a completely different level than Candy Galy was. (The 2 and 3 dan boss maps didn't feel like boss maps to me but that's a different story.) My mate abraker even had to struggle a little to get past this set with 96% because of candy galy even though he's nearly 5th dan at the moment.

If I compare my own results on the first three maps (on a good day because I've played them too much), then each one is around an S and I end love live somewhere between 94.5-95.5. Candy galy makes me drop all the way down to 91-92; this puts my 4 dan results on par with my 5th dan results. Individually it's barely an A and sometimes a B. Being so far removed in results from the other 4th dan maps really makes me question why it's there. Also dans below 7 haven't been refreshed.

I just have a feeling aiae MX would work better as a boss map. Mostly because I like the idea of MX and SC being 4th -> 5th jump but also because if I compare my results on the first 3 4-dan maps to my aiae MX results, they're about similar. (Actually make candy galy 5th dan and aiae mx 4th huaheuahue)

i dont think having two charts from the same song will be appropriate. there is actually a lot more maps in the pending/graveyard section though

I'd rather see two charts from the same map than having one that is inappropriate in difficulty for its level. But that's just my opinion on candy galy and I don't know how anyone else feels about it.

This is why I don't think Candy Galy is right but no one else has commented on it yet except Lampranthus and he thinks it's ok.

I initially overestimated the difficulty of Candy Galy mainly because I forgot that there's this steep learning curve that dense jumpstream has that is not present in any of the other charts in 4th dan - there's also the fact that Candy Galy is pretty fast to begin with.

It's definitely a mistake on my part, but I'm not sure if I'm going to change songs or not. We could use the same song for different dan courses (the old Luminal dan had AiAe, for example) - but I prefer not to do it unless it's absolutely necessary. I'll try to find a light JS stamina chart eventually.
Yuudachi-kun
Deleted and reposting because most of what I said was invalidated with a discovery.

Maybe it's just a mental thing on my part but Candy Galy is weird. I played Japanese Transformation ht (which is od9) and got 91% and looking through the replay, it's the same type of dense JS pattern. (Or not; I only see it being 2 1 2 1 2 1 in the JS parts in terms of how many notes there are just like CG) Meanwhile my best on Candy Galy at od8 is only 92% or so on the individual map BUT that's with 3/4 of the map being nothing but easy to acc fluff so my score on the JS part might as well be like 83%.

Also I think if you want a light stamina JS map you should look at Southern Cross Hard 14 (from some yolomania pack iirc?); I think this is a completely perfect choice and as a bonus it has consistent difficulty and isn't free acc for the first 50% like Candy Galy.

Just going to point out that snover has decided to make a Tachyon v3, because he overestimated the difficulty of a couple of charts in the course. The coruse is overall harder. Should be uploading that in a few days, I'm posting this just as a forewarning for anyone who is trying to go for Tachyon at the moment.

Tachyon v2 scores would be nulled, but you'll still have a flair to show that you have passed an old version of Tachyon regardless. I'm still allowing Tachyon v2 scores however - but that flair will not be your predominant flair unless you have never passed any of the previous dans.

I think it's in poor taste to make an official version of a dan that uses rates for the courses instead of 1.0 maps.

Would any v3 of dan 1 through luminal use 1.1 up or 0.9 and down? If not then why is Tachyon different?

Limited variety of charts is really the only reason why rates are used. Nobody really makes charts of super high difficulty, even less so when it comes to charts that are actually compatible for the given difficulty range that Tachyon has (skillsets as well). This won't be the case for any dan lower than Tachyon because there are ample charts in that range that can be picked from.

There probably won't be v3 dan courses. I personally didn't really want to do much with the other dan courses (except for maybe 4th and 8th dans) because I think it'll just be a never-ending cycle of what can be improved on, but it was a contribution on snover's part and I didn't really see a strong reason to reject the idea given that Tachyon v2 has an unintended difficulty drop (Exile). Same applies for 4th dan and 8th dan, but in the opposite direction (difficulty spikes).

Hi shoegazer

I got really bored today because I wasn't playing well at all and I decided to re-imagine the 4th dan course because I think it's the only one that's really bad. Tell me how bad you think the map selection is (or not :<) because today I've been polling every 3-4d player (Who has played current 4 dan) I know.

What is the third song in 4th dan? Never seen that chart before. The difficulty range seems generally fine, but the sync is a bit wonky - which can be amended manually anyway.

This will probably be the last time Tachyon will be updated, and probably the last time the dan courses will be updated in general. Like before, there will be new leaderboards, and your flair will be differentiated from the older passes if you pass this course. Tachyon v3 is noticeably harder than Tachyon v2. 4th Dan v2 should be noticeably easier than 4th Dan v1, due to the absence of Candy Galy (and being substituted with an easier chart). As usual, thanks for the people involved. Their names have been credited accordingly in the metadata of the dan courses.

Barely cleared 4th dan v2 in one try, while my best in v1 is 95.05%.

If this is intended, thanks khelly.

snover had the idea for tachyon v3
eze updated the v3 on 9/11
so I guess the truth is finland + singapore teamed up to do 9/11

This is very much intended; candy galy (and honestly the other maps but they were ok) made 4 dan v1 unfun to play and clear even if you were at that skill level imo. I had to skip 4th and get 5th first because of that. Hopefully more people can be encouraged now to clear 4th dan.

The first map should be relatively easy introduction to 4th dan but still test JS and jumptrill skills that I don't remember if 3rd dan has at all because 4th dan starts the transition into Stepmania mapping styles. I think anyone who's progressed past 4th dan will find this map completely 99% trivial, but for a new 3rd dan who's decided "I want to test out 4th dan", you can't exactly play it on autopilot.

If you learn to play the 2nd map well you should be prepared for learning to play that was too slow in 5th dan since jacking becomes a skill at this point.

The third map is a speed map where you might need to (or not) learn that you can jumptrill the 4321 4321 patterns like in the burst in Grief and Malice. The various repeated patterns especially at the end remind me of 403 forbidden in a way. It might seem a bit too long but in terms of note count the maps are still weighted 20/20/30/30 roughly.

The 4th map is a better light (and sometimes dense) stamina jumpstream map. Personally I don't think it's as hard as Black cloak skeleton or Breakcore, but it fits the theme of the last map being stamina JS like in 5th, 6th, 8th, 9th, and 10th(?) dan. If you're attempting to clear 4th dan and don't have better stamina it'll probably be really hard seeing as you just came from playing breakcore.
