@auditoryfixer@icecreamycr@azy61b ???? I never said no genes exist for gd, but genes have nothing to do with getting fast progress on a level. If you are good enough you will get progress fast its as simple as that. What mysterious things do you think I am saying?
@auditoryfixer@icecreamycr@azy61b Bro there is literally nothing stopping anybody from getting to at least Acheron level. Now obviously if you only care about being the Best thats a different scenario, But idk why that would be important at all in this conversation??
@auditoryfixer@icecreamycr@azy61b It makes perfect sense??? If you are already good at the game its easier to learn levels are you fucking stupid. Do you think Day 1 Zoink is as capable as 5 years of playtime Zoink?
@azy61b@icecreamycr This was done on human benchmark, average of 5 without having people rely on rng tapping. So unless somebody cheated for some mysterious reason these are all accurate to their ao5
@icecreamycr@azy61b But no top levels have required like consistent spamming until now when Grief randomly decided it needed to have an 8.3cps part which just so happens to be the part where most top players are mystically stuck at (it makes sense, because its genes)
@icecreamycr@azy61b I actually still have the file since I was going to do a modern version, but seeing how Tech has managed to continue being good, reaction time is completely meaningless in this game. Dexterity can be improved over time. The only thing I'd really attribute genes to is spamming.
@yaypancake@AA93935@xratogd I dont see how that matters. They invested the same amount of attempts into prepractice. Or do prepractice attempts suddenly not matter when it comes to popoff
@typingshit1@AA93935@xratogd "I'm not even gonna lie, I don't know how the fuck you got 8 runs. I got 32. I don't know. No, I spent 8 thousand attempts." Timestamped:

@AA93935@xratogd This is the issue with Grief being as overrated as it is, it's not that special at the end of the day. Getting it in 4 runs with what is tantamount to 4 days of playtime is more than doable for Zoink / Popoff.
@AA93935@xratogd I don't see how that's relevant, he claims those 32 runs took him 8k attempts. Zoink supposedly had 10k in prepractice before Grief was verified. It's roughly the same starting point.
Also "quite a lot of prepractice", he probably played the level on the day it was verified.
I could be wrong, but don't Zoink and popoff have roughly the same amount of prepractice? Like one did a day with Grief (Zoink) and the other did level swap (Popoff). They both spent roughly a day on the level. So like why is there so much pointless animosity on both sides?
@minttttttttttts It's like when Phobos was verified and placed at #2 instead of #1 because everybody was on 60 and people on 144 didn't want to dethrone bloodbath, but this time Grief is bloodbath so it's just a possibly overrated achievement. It's like practically same diff as Society / Art13.
