I was not planning on joining TWC 2024, until you invited me to a multi session. Your encouragement initiated my ambition to take part in this tournament despite knowing that most participants are a whole level beyond me.
Taiko is the few things I am decent at in life, so this opportunity has redefined how I see sports/competition in general…

Jonarwhal & Axer
Axer and Jonarwhal were my first ranked map's BNs, made my time for quite a while. Their opinions showed me more aspects to taiko mapping.

DrLou
I would consider DrLou almost as an inspiration for the time I played osu!mania 7k, which indirectly alluded me to various VSRG rhythm games.

AdveNt & gazimal
Knew AdveNt probably through his beatmaps, so did gazimal.

Thank you for being open for advices. That promise you held meant a lot for me, especially when you replied after an entire year since we last spoke!

16 Oct 2023 Monday: Passed Hizumi Rei feat. Meika Mikoto - Eva (Under Construction Remix) (300 bpm). I downloaded this map when I first started taiko, hoping one day I can pass it - and that day was this day.
