For context: I was playing Telepathy for the first time and got a score of 9,858,750 (EX) with Hikari. FOR SOME REASON, I MANAGED TO GET A PLAY RATING ABOVE MY CURRENT POTENTIAL (10.97) DESPITE IT BEING AN FTR 9. LIKE HOW?! I thought I have to get an EX on an FTR 10?

I almost considered to intentionally lower my potential by getting as many Track Losts on high difficulty songs. That way I can get my potential to be lower than a playing rating from getting an EX on FTR 8-9 songs. Can anyone explain to me why it happened?

Also Telepathy is a really fun song.

The design is based on this YouTube tutorial (https://youtu.be/xse5m\_Y0UgY?si=-zFQ3mznRutpb8M-). I just came back to Minecraft a few weeks ago during the end of my college semester. I haven’t played in years, so I would love to hear your opinion on my current builds. My base is embarrassingly noobish, but I love it. Its just a simple house with a small farm and a well, with a cobblestone wall surrounding a garden full of trees and flowers. There a couple of beehives nearby, a well, a mine and a cobblestone generator, and 2 animal pens.

The conversation between Astro and Sprout is quite interesting. The video essentially shows that the Toons have doubts regarding their own identity. They have memories of the episodes they supposedly "experience", such as the times they hangout, spend time and etc. Yet, from this dialogue, we can see that Cosmo doesn’t exist yet - physically speaking. Sprout talks about how he "feels" that Cosmo is his counterpart and his best friend, and that he remembers that events of each episode. But Cosmo's not here. Delilah hasn't created him yet. This leads to Sprout doubting his own existence, whether events in the episodes are real, genuine moments. Astro tries to comfort him, saying that they are real, but the elipses in his dialogue make it seem that he also has doubts.

It seems like all of the toons have their memories, personalities and interests pre-programmed into their minds, which are all based on the show's episodes. The memories all seem real, but this video proves that they're fake moments planted in their heads. The toons never experience the things in the episodes but they are made to think they are real.

I would love to hear your thoughts regarding the creation of Toons and how memories work in them.
