How this works is that it starts on Quality Factor 0. There will be a chain with 100 remixes, eaching steping up 1 on the Quality Factor. For exmaple, the next remix will be Quality Factor 1. You have to rush the designs, and spend more time on them on the quality factor.
You cannot use hyperrealistic design orgins until Quality Factor 75. Try to make the design shlighly better than the previous one, not to better.
