I aced it. Does that mean I'm special or "special"? -

I have the same main concern about this as I did with the old robots. Floppy strings. Maybe it's just me, but coming from a background of playing metal, alternate tunings for me has mostly been tuning down the whole guitar. Never did the 'drop-whatever' only tuning down one string. And when I did tune down I always changed string gauges. A half step down was doable with my regular tuning set of strings, but when I had a guitar dedicated for it I had another set on it. For a whole step down and below I always changed to heavier strings else it would just feel floppy, especially for the right hand. Another thing about the floppy strings was that they did sound out of tune to me. Might have been because they went to the sides when I fretted them more easily so I bent them out of tune or something, but I kinda imagined it was at least partly because they got floppy and didn't ring out clearly, but more... irregularly because they were also flopping about... if that makes any sense. Maybe that is what's happening here too.
That said, I've never really tried the DADGAD or open chord tunings, and with less frantic right hand work than what I used to do playing metal and a bit of practice, it might not be an issue.
