Etterna Charting Tournament 2023

Don’t worry if you struggle with any of the songs, I know everyone tends to have genres they’re better/worse at, just try to enjoy yourself, even if you aren’t confident in your charts. : D

I have made sure to specify if you need to use xmod using the cdtitle! They are labled with “(xmod)”

You can vote using the form below!

Voting form
Voting will last until the 12th of April
To charters, obviously do not reveal which chart is yours, even if you figure it out.

If there are any problems, same as always, just message me on the forums here and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible

Was Noble Numbat marked xmod? The only xmod stuff here is that it changes BPM between 150 and 300 and there is no indication this is done for more than making notes red and blue so it’s kinda weird.

It was marked as xmod because i believed it was meant to be a slowjam intro. Of course since posting you and 1 other person has commented that I was incorrect, so it’s safe to ignore that tag. Apologies for the inconvenience

!!! (body is clear and it is a complete sentence >:c)

Have officially played through all of the entries and cast my votes! Thank you to everyone who submitted to the tournament!

I would like to remind everyone, since there’s been a number of people who are acting extremely childishly, that this is a FOR-FUN event. It is an event for people to enjoy their HOBBY of charting. It’s not some professional big e-sports thing, and the attitute people have had towards it, attacking charts and bringing up dates on the .sm of submissions etc is frankly unacceptable and, to put it bluntly, deeply disappointing.

I may have been out of the community for a while but the behaviour I’ve seen has been childish at best from these people.

So, to reiterate:

Do not attack charters. Do not attack charts. This is a FRIENDLY event. I can’t believe I have to re-iterate this, but I do.

I haven’t seen anyone give feedback or reviews on the files (positive, negative, or otherwise) and I’m kinda curious to hear what people have to say about the files. Is all of this hiding somewhere I’m not seeing? o:

The things I’ve managed to see so far have been pretty scattered, mostly individual efforts to review them. There was some discussion in the Etterna Discord’s general chat on the day the voting started regarding what was submitted.

Foxfire also streamed playing through all of the submissions and talked about some of their thoughts on the charts - there’s a VOD of that available here.

Feedback has been scattered across a few places as described in the post above mine, I’ve just had a few reports of people being extremely childish and attacking charts so I wanted to make it very clear as soon as possible that it won’t be tolerated while its still few and far between. Nip it before it grows kinda deal

Voting will end at midnight (GMT+1) today. If anyone still hasn’t voted, now’s the time!

Round 2 will begin shortly, results from voting will be included in the round 2 post



Welcome to round 2 of ECT2023! Everyone who has entered should have received an email with the synced .sm and audio file! If you can’t find it, check spam!

From this round on, I expect a submission. If you don’t submit, you won’t be in the event anymore, I will consider it the same as willingly leaving the event. This track is going to test your ability to chart more consistent repeating music, and I look forward to seeing how everyone varies in their approaches!


Round 2’s song is “Vocaloid’s Got Talent” by “J-CORE SLi//CER”! Check it out below!


Just for clarity, I’ll go over the rules each round!

What ISN’T allowed:

No insulting/attacking other peoples entries
No harassment or bullying of any charters or organisers involved.
Must be a 4k (4 key) chart
You must submit the chart as a .sm or .ssc file. If you’re from another rhythm game, I’m sure there are many ways to convert your filetype to .sm/.ssc
No cutting the music. (The music is at most 3 minutes, don’t worry)
You may alter the provided sync however you like, but if the chart is off sync it will be disqualified
From round 2 onwards, you MUST submit a chart each round or you will be removed from the event.
Sharing your chart before the end of the event, to avoid people knowing who made what.
If making modcharts, don’t put anything malicious in them (Obviously)
Collaborations are not allowed
Didn’t think i’d need to add this but don’t be a twat and judge peoples charting speed by looking at the dates of a submission (seriously, come on)

What IS allowed:

Dumping is allowed.
Gimmicks (Such as the cmod gimmick or “rolltech” and other obscure playstyles).
Modcharts (Including lua stuff).
Xmod charts.
Visual things (such as colour theory).
Any other creative/unique thing you can do with a song, so long as it uses the required formats (.sm or .ssc)

You have until the 20th of april to chart this track. ^^
Best of luck, everyone! I can’t wait to see peoples approach!
If you have any questions or complaints, you can leave them in this thread OR send me a message privately on the forum and I’ll answer them
