My journey to finish MM1's catalogue of sheets continues. This one is about 14 years overdue, but as they say, there's no time like the present!

I was gonna say a joke about how it takes guts to arrange this, but I think BlueKirby already did that in the server... So instead I'll give you some feedback:

• Your performance note is just a little bit outside the page margins.
• You can have the simile start on m6 if you want. I think it's pretty clear either way.
• It might be nice to include the C's in m1 like this:
  
  Spoiler

  
  Not really much harder to play than what you had before, and it helps convey that D7 sound instead of just a Dmaj chord.

• I hear the bass in m15/17 play on the downbeat of beat 3. Perhaps something like this would be more accurate:
  
  Spoiler

  
  Might seem more difficult, but I think with a 4-1-4 fingering on the Bbs on beat 2, sliding down to the A's is pretty easy after messing around on my keyboard a bit. Same fingering works for the Ab-G movement between m15-16 as well.

- found the button that shows the margins, and moved the note accordingly
- works for me!
- thank you, it was feeling empty without them but I wasn't sure I could add them
- something felt off. I knew I shouldn't have rushed this!

Files are updated.

Looks good to me!

- Tempo marking's pretty high up... maybe lower it?
- Any reason why m1 RH beat 3.75 doesn't have the C?
- The lower note on m16 RH beat 1 should be Db instead of D.
- Any reason why the minor seconds aren't included in m18?
- Do you want to extend the slurs at the end of m14/16 RH to beat 1 of the next measure like you do elsewhere?
- Maybe include an asterisk in the performer's note (e.g. "*Performer's Note:") to clarify that that's what the asterisk in m4 refers to? You might also consider moving the asterisk in m4 up a bit so that it more clearly corresponds to the minor seconds instead of just hanging out between the LH and RH.

-  sure thing
- no reason good enough to leave it out
- got that
- I'll fill in that spot with another Wily Wars figure
- as long as you approve
- good ideas, I'll do that

Files fixed!
