How many attempts did you spend on your hardest?

I’m currently going for oopz (#599 aredl) and have 82. My current attempt count is ~4,500 which I feel is a ton of attempts for the placement. I think I’m overreacting a bit but I’ve never spent this many attempts on a level before (most is 2,600) and it’s starting to get somewhat demotivating. Since getting 82 I’ve played about 500 attempts from 0 and can’t even get close to my best despite doing multiple 28-100 runs before and after getting 82. Am I washed or is my attempt count valid?
