They're not rumors.

Hmm...I think Roxor thinks that since these songs are getting ***'ed and poopy that they're not hard enough to fit into their original ratings. But in reality it's the players that are getting better, and not the songs somehow becoming easier.

It should definately stay a 12. I mean people underrate its difficulty. It's actually a rather tiring song...

First of all, Summer is staying a 13. It's a stupid rumor, and I'm pretty sure Ryan has confirmed it false. Whereas Ryan has confirmed that D-Code is not a 10.

Charlene is a freaking 11. Sure, it's about on the same level or easier than DC Hyper, Tension, Know Your Enemy, and Hillbilly Hardcore to us, but look at it from a newer player's perspective. If they have trouble with mines, Charlene is going to be hell for them to read. If they have trouble with constant runs, then Charlene will still be harder to them than the likes of Tension

Ratings should be based on the difficulty of passing a song, not scoring on it.

! should stay a 12. 24th bursts, crossovers in the 16ths, random quad, and a tricky stop with a roll followed by many mines. ! also takes more stamina than the 11s.

Unless the changes are extremely necessary (D-Code and Fleadh Uncut Hard even though I doubt they'll change it), RoxoR shouldn't probably go around changing everything. People, like myself even, will always be frustrated about a few ratings but in all honesty it does provide a large range of difficulty for the player.

Birdie => On a Day Like Today
Queen of Light => Tension
Charlene => Monolith
VerTex => Bloodrush
Summer => V2

I believe someone and some point has all asked for a rerate on all of songs.
THey want the left side lower and the right side higher. I tend to agree that On a Day Like Today would work better as a 10 myself, but I believe in all honesty that broad difficulties (as long as their not TOO broad) help make the difficulty ladder easier to climb, that way you'll start to do 11s before you finish up the 10s and start to do 12s before finishing up the 11s.

This is exactly why I think Roxor needs a new system.

Don't rate songs at all. Just give all the data they already give on step count, and put length of song and Steps per minute. That way, you get a general (and also fairly accurate) idea of the overall difficulty of the song based on BPM and SPM.

All I hear when people say NO THIS SONG SHOULDN'T BE RERATED are the people that think it grows their e-peen to pass a 13/12 whatever. So they change Summer to a 12. Big deal. Does it REALLY MATTER? You can still say "I passed Summer". It's not that hard. It's not like rerating it is changing anything about the song, and if you say otherwise, you really care too much about how many 13s you have or haven't passed, and need to just stop caring about how many songs of a specific level you can clear.

If it bothers you that much that Summer is the only 13 you can pass, if it gets rerated, at least you can say you've passed another 12

Charlene is easier then all but two tens. It's absolutely ridiculous as an 11.

Three 11's and Seven 10's are harder than !, so make with that as you will.

Good to know Summer is staying a 13. D-Code can be a nine, but then so should Zodiac, Wanna Do, Fleadh and Tribal Style.

When I knew Charlene was an 11, I was nervous when I decided to play it for the first time (before I'd passed any 11's and hardly any 10's), but once I got going, I didn't even come anywhere close to failing the song. Sure, the mines can be a bit tricky to read for players who aren't as skilled, but in my opinion, complex runs and twists found in songs such as Soapy Bubble and Know Your Enemy are just more likely to tire someone out and cause their life meter to fall to zero. Besides, Charlene is significantly less draining than most 10's, so that makes it easier to concentrate on dodging the mines and also greatly reduces the chances of giving up because the song felt too overwhelming.
