Amazings Only Tournament!
 
Amazings Only Tournament!

That's right! In this tournament, only Amazings count towards your score! Call it MA or AA or whatever you wish, but here, only the best accuracy counts. Your score each round will be your Amazing count on the selected song for the round.

Upon user request, I made the following rule -

The Rundown ----

Round Length - 4 Days
Songs Per Round - 1
Rounds - 4
Scoring - Cumulative Amazing Count
Submissions - Screenshots Only, Replays will Not be accepted.
Screenshots must include your username and the Amazing count must be shown
Start Date - 10/01
Divisions - 5 to 7 Depending on Sign Ups

Placements
FFR's Leaderboard system's division placement will be the default for participants, But I have the right to shift borderline players up or down based on their level ranks and based on the spread in skill of those who have signed up for the tournament.
Placement discussions are to take place in PMs only!
Regression from prior skill will not be a factor in your divisional placement.

The "Be Amazing" Rule!
This rule is to
A) Play the best you can play
and
B) Don't cheat
and
C) Treat others in the thread with respect

It's that simple.

I have the right to remove participants who refuse to follow this rule.

I would in but I'm facing a severe deficit in that exact accuracy so probably not unless I can fix the issues.

unfortunately, at a certain point, this becomes "who has the least flash lag" which kinda sucks, and song choice will definitely factor into how easy it'll be to AA things, given frame conversions

gl w/ the tourney

I did get a pretty good explanation from OWA on how the conversion process works, and I have a pool of songs at an appropriate BPMs, but I will have to deviate from that list to keep things interesting.

Also, I will avoid "bursty" songs as well because those are more likely to have greater frame issues.

Despite FFRs limitations, I still see scores in the scores thread and the AA is still in line with player's skill. Even though specific frames here or there may go one way or the other, overall better players still have better AA in general.

This reminds me of the idea channel episode I just watched about luck in games. I admit there's some luck in this tournament set up, but from what I've seen, AA has a strong correlation to player skill, but with a small factor of luck to spice it up.

Here's the splits so far:

D7 - 4
D6 - 7
D5 - 8
D4 - 6
D3 - 2
D2 - 1

Please check out the spreadsheet link and PM any concerns so far

The notion of divisions is scary in this tournament, I can't even quad difficulty 10 files.

Hype before round 1.

TheSaxRunner05 09-28-2015 09:00 PM

Re: Amazings Only Tournament!
 
Updated to here!

@Hakulyte

I don't expect there to be any quads, but I may be surprised. To start, expect difficulty ranges that should be almost surely AAA's for each division, but not so low as to completely bore a player of that skill.

Re: Amazings Only Tournament!
 
Is there going to be some sort of ruling where you must post a score within X minutes/hours of it being achieved in order for it to count? Due to the nature of the tournament, people aren't going to be anywhere near snagging perfect scores, and I'd prefer not to give opponents any benchmarks to work against. If there's no ruling on that, I'll more than likely end up saving my submissions until round's end, but I could see people having problems with that.

I'm beginning to think I've taken on more than I can handle if this is what I have to get amazing on.



I'll play some more after work to see if I can do any of the higher ones.

(What's depressing is I have a blackflag on BB Euro and doubt that I could even FC it at the moment).
