Starting Best: [Previous best before buffs] → Ending Best: 88%
Key Milestone: Reached 88% from 0 — the deepest run yet. The level received a full buffdate across both months, yet consistency remained strong. Two technical completions occurred, but neither counted due to LDM and missing raw footage respectively.
Overall Feeling: A month of extremes — smooth buff implementation in July, a forced break due to complications, then a devastating return in August with two failed verifications. Motivation shattered, but consistency and community support pulled things back.
| Run | Count | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 52-100% | ×7 | Most consistent drop section — clean completions to the end. |
| 26-100% | ×4 | Solid mid-level consistency, strong from the ship onward. |
| 22-100% | ×1 | Deep run from early wave section. FLUKE |
| 11-74% | ×1 | Died at the 73% frame perfect — two mini spikes proving lethal. |
| 11-63% | ×1 | Drop attempt from early on, died before the late spike. |
| 0-88% (Best) | ×1 | Deepest run from 0. Nerves took over at the final stretch. 12% away from verification. |
Motivation Level: 3/10 — Shattered after two failed verifications. The LDM completion and the no-recording completion back-to-back broke something. Considered quitting entirely.
Physical Condition: Good — No physical fatigue or pain reported. The break in August due to complications allowed some recovery, but the return was mentally brutal.
Biggest Challenge: Nerve control at the final stretch. The consistency is there — the level is beatable. But after two heartbreaks, the mental barrier at 80%+ is now the hardest part of the level. Input lag isn't the issue. Muscle memory isn't the issue. It's all upstairs.
"I beat Injury technically twice. One didn't count due to LDM. The second one, the recording wasn't on — no proof. This shattered my motivation and will to continue playing this level. But I realized my consistency and the people backing me up."
