Round 5: UP or DOWN?
Rules
Song you step must NOT be between 110 and 209 BPM, inclusive. Songs with natural BPM changes that pass through the 110~209 zone will be DQ’d. There are also some broken songs like Meikyoushisui incorrectly listed at 290 BPM in other rhythm games, for example. USE YOUR BEST JUDGEMENT.
If you need to know a song’s natural BPM, ask me or @telp — easy easy easy. We will do it for you so there is no confusion whatsoever.
Good luck!

Round 8: Nostalgia is Lost
Rules
Step a song that has appeared in any tournament pack during 2016 or earlier
No DDR officials, but ITG 1-2 officials (even Rebirth ….. I guess?) are ok.
Recuts are fine (song may be hard to find).
Pad or “competitive performance” tournaments (e.g. no simfile contests)
Recommended process for file hunting: https://itgpacks.com/. Then, https://search.stepmaniaonline.net/ or https://perfect.full.com.bo/ to DL because most the ITGP.com stuff is broken.
