Hitting all the flame notes on three lanes at once to keep them going perpetually is the exploit, whether you flail analog sticks around or try to meticulously hit every note and stay in Blitz mode. The difference is the manner in which the exploit is executed, which sounds like the possibilities range between trying to be skillful and completely forgoing skill. I personally find it difficult to believe that someone is staying in Blitz mode while doing this (I would very much like to see a video showing it done that way), but that's really beside the point, as the idea behind the play style is not something that was intended for the game, which is evidenced by the astronomical scores it attains and Harmonix themselves calling the process an exploit. |
As long as you are actually trying to hit every single note and not flailing the sticks like you did in that video I don't see the problem. I do agree that the method he uses is a bit hilarious but MaximusDM does the same thing too on the easiest charts. Look at the top Tempted scores, and even I can get a score that's not possible with jack/flame. I still think it's legitimate if you are actually hitting the notes and not button mashing.
The thing is you can't do this on difficult songs because it's nearly impossible to do that juggling on note dense tracks, so if you are doing this legitimately it will only work on easy tracks. I got 328k on Charlene 3rd try doing it(didn't do it very well either). It's kinda ironic that the most outrageous scores are possible on the easiest charts. Buddy Holly, Bang Your Head, etc are all incredibly easy songs(minus solos duh) so astronomical scores are a lot more possible. He sure as hell couldn't do that on something like BYOB.
You could disallow band/flame from the league but that would also invalidate a lot of MaximusDM's scores too and I don't see that fair.

Exact brackets will be up in the morning.
Playoffs was top 8, with a few alts. NO byes. If you're in the top 8, you're playing. You can figure out where you are from the standings.
Song is already up, you have 3 days. Gogogo.
And yes, it was random. When something this ridiculous happens it can only BE random.

That's pretty impressive. Will the next round be Wilson? :P

For those who saw my prior post (now deleted) about bracket pairings being incorrect, I apologize and was wrong, there was no error with the pairings. There's only a problem with the seeding numbers which I'm correcting now.
EDIT: All fixed now.

| I know. I apologize. I submitted a score, just forgot about proof. I love participating in the leagues, I get really excited for them. I don't know if you were directing the comment about not allowing those who didn't submit into next season towards me or not, but if so, I understand your reasoning. |

This kind of shit is why leagues had been on hiatus, we are incredibly disappointed that this has happened, especially in Maximus since we bent the rules and let you in the league after the sign up deadline (knowing full well you'd be destroying us, I might add)..that's disrespectful to the staff and the other players.
