i have no idea what just happened.
i only got past the second drop (54%) three times in normal mode: 60%, 81%, and 100%. i never died at the coin. in this session, i'd only been playing for 5 minutes, and the record before this was 39%.

so i beat it, i guess? first top 50?
what the fuck just happened?
help?

uh anyway here's my thoughts on this level

started this level off because i thought it looked fun and relatively easy ish? i don't know, from this level i now know not to judge a level by its looks because you really cannot tell a lot about inconsistent transitions and such when you watch a one attempt completion. played it for like 1000 attempts, thought it was ok, kept going. didn't have time to play it for a while, got 50% in a weekend, didn't play over the next week, got 60% the next weekend, same thing as the last, and then got 81% this weekend and then somehow 100%. please do not play this level as some people may suggest you to, it sucks and is not that consistent. you have to listen to the song and subdivide in order to get some of the timings down consistently and it's a really weird way to learn how to beat an extreme

annoying, i guess. relatively consistent if you practice it a lot. 22% honestly didn't feel that bad, but at other times i literally could not get past it in like 20 attempts so i have no idea how that part works anymore, 29% wave was a bit annoying because it's one of those parts where it's like kind of synced but at the same time it's not in the beginning or end of the note so i don't think it works very well. 39% was annoying in the same way that 29% was. 47% is weird since the taps are kind of synced at times but at the same time it's not, maybe i was just listening to it differently at times but i have no idea honestly. i do not like the 50% timing at all, since you have to listen to the music but it only works like half the time anyway. 52% is annoying since i kept missing the black orb for some reason lol, 64% dual and 70% wave were SUPPOSED to be annoying but i never died in either of those places so i really can't give any opinions on it, same with the ship after the wave (like 71%). last part is stressful, i guess, expected to die at 83 or 86 but somehow i got the best of luck so that's great. typically, i have less attempts on levels than other people, but this time i'm in the middle of op players that beat it in 2k (rainstorm) or 3k (btb, tech, waivve, diamondsplash, gizbro) and idk i guess decent players that beat it in like 8k (temp) and 12k (rcrystal). kinda sad that it didn't take me as little as it usually does, but hey, my hardest demon before this was niflheim at #70 and this is #44 lol

there is a fade in to another recording in the middle of the video because i was so fucking confused by this completion i just wanted to end it so i could comprehend what just happened, but also i wanted to record myself counting attempts and commenting and doing leaderboard things and i realised i forgot so i just started another one, hopefully that doesn't mean my record is invalid or something lol

there is also this really weird thing at like 89%, where it's supposed to say "verified by" behind dorami's cube, but for some reason it's not there which baffles me. at first i thought it's because i held out from 87% because it sometimes randomly kills me there if i don't, but i looked at my 54 to 100 video and it still shows the text, so i have no idea what happened, sorry

anyway this description is WAY too long so i'm gonna go and give you the
