I think Olimar knows this however and is trying to say that he's slightly giving up accuracy in order to make it easier to sight read.

I don't think having bass notes on off-beats has ever improved the ability to sight-read something....

I can only ever hear the piece the way that Don and MSF have suggested; I've tried counting in the piece so that it starts on the down beat of four multiple times and my brain consistently corrects my counting to put the bass notes on the down beats.

But literally just listen to that melody omg

A piece is both melody and accompaniment. I'm sure people could easily provide examples of a piece that could be interpreted as a certain rhythm if you only looked at the melody, but if you ignore the bass then you've lost a crucial portion of the piece.

Same goes for me too, no theory involved. It just "feels" not right.

I trust my ear and would rather not host what I feel is an incorrect or inaccurate arrangement, at the least by my standards. When I get home I'll switch this submisson out for something else.

You know, if everyone expected their sheet to be submitted by their standards of accuracy, we'd be having a bad time.

I can hear the emphasis on the downbeat in the video, olimar's submission, and don's MUS.
So to me I would much rather play the one that's easier to read, but if olimar's is theoretically correct by putting the downbeat emphasis in the proper spot, that would lead me to believe I have no idea what I'm talking about

I guess it sucks that I have higher standards!
