According to the wiki, dickspeed refers to when users increase the tempo to allow more than 5 notes per beat. According to that definition, one of my pieces qualifies that has a tempo of 600, Arceus Battle.

Wow. How the hell would you have managed to pull that off with such a low tempo?

Are you saying we should rethink the definition? Because, by your thinking, this first sentence is contradicts the second. Here is the wiki's definition:
Well not 'contradicts', it is more or less a loophole of some sorts.

How about we call it dickspeed when you can make three lines sound the same as one beat?

What the wiki says:
"Dickspeed is the colloquial term coined by the MPC community to describe any song composed or arranged with a tempo that far exceeds the original SNES Mario Paint's or even the 500 BPM limit of Mario Paint Composer. A song is considered "dickspeed" if its tempo is increased to allow more than 5 instruments per beat in the OST."
How it should be redefined:
"Dickspeed is the colloquial term coined by the MPC community to describe any song composed or arranged with a tempo multiplied by 16 on a standard metronome. A song is considered "dickspeed" if its tempo is increased to allow more than 5 instruments per beat in the composition per measure. The use of Dickspeed can also be used for volume control to improve the quality of a piece if one given instrument is louder than the other."
But what should we call Dickspeed that is doubled again? Some would say Ludicrous speed, but I'm going to call it "The Double Deuce Dickspeed", or Triple DDD. Ie: The 5100 Triple DDD for the Liberi Fatali composition yet to be released.
