Blitz Tournament 2
Blitz Tourney 2: Hi19Hi19 Edition
In honor of one of our most prolific stepfile artists, we are proud to bring you the first in what will be a long series of themed Blitz Tournaments: All Hi19Hi19, All the time! THE GOAL OF THIS TOURNAMENT IS TO MAKE EVERY SONG SUPER HARD. YOU SHOULD DO BADLY AND STRUGGLE TO IMPROVE SO IF YOU GET DISCOURAGED BY BAD SCORES MAYBE DON'T How does it work? In a Blitz tournament, we follow the same scoring system as other non-elimination tournaments: There are 6 rounds, the scoring is cumulative, there are no eliminations, but there are two key differences: 1. The whole tournament is 2 weeks long 2. All six songs are playable, from day 1 to day 14 How do I enter? You can enter the tournament via the Official Signup Link Here: http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/...ent/signup.php What will the rounds be like? Since all 6 rounds are open at once, and it is a cumulative event, my goal in song selection will be to basically pick 6 songs that would all have been of 'final round' difficulty in a normal tournament. Ideally nobody should be getting a AAA on more than 1 or 2 rounds that happen to dovetail with their particular skills, unless they put in a lot of work on improvement. Why run this as a Blitz event? I don't like how most tournaments involve a lot of getting 4 rounds in and deciding you can't catch somebody and quit, having put a month into the event. Since the whole thing is 2 weeks, it's a short enough time to keep attention and focus for the whole duration, and since all songs are playable at all times, I hope it will create more competition as somebody passing you in the standings will cause you to go back to other songs you 'finished' already to try and improve scores. When will the tourney run? Signups: Open Now Tournament Starts: Sunday May 19, 7:00am Server Time Tournament Ends: Sunday June 2, 7:00am Server Time Other Stuff / FAQ Things that should go without saying, really. Don't cheat. Scores will submit automatically. If they don't, let me know and we'll look into it. By default you'll be placed into your division based on your skill rating. I will get somebody smarter than me to look over the list and make sure nobody is sneaking in with a sandbag. Etc etc. We've all done this lots of times. Q: Can I enter with my lower division alt that plays index/one-hand/whatever? A: Absolutely just PM me from your main account with the name, what division you want, and that you understand that account won't be eligible for prizes A Reiteration The songs are going to be really hard. I don't want anybody to AAA, Heck, I want people to struggle to FC. The goal of this structure is to keep people actively competing and trying for the whole two weeks, to eke out a few more points, not AAA/SDG the first 4 rounds and have the winner be determined in round 5 and 6. What do I mean? I mean each division is likely looking at nothing but songs at the high end of the division ABOVE them. Code:
D1 0 - 25 Songs 36-47 Credits: 2,100,000 Tokens: Event Tokens for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd in each division All participants in the blitz who submitted every round will receive a special Hi19Hi19 Blitz Tournament Profile badge indicating whether they were a participant, top3, or division winner.

|
Re: Blitz Tournament 2
I shall follow this thread with great interest.
|
Re: Blitz Tournament 2
Sorry any confused D1 people. I thought I made sure I didn't pick any songs that needed unlocking, but Roller Coaster Ride was the milestone token for skill rating 20, so it's been replaced with another song in the same difficulty range.
|
Re: Blitz Tournament 2
I'm in for this big spaghetti
|
Re: Blitz Tournament 2

Re: Blitz Tournament 2
I registered, and it says that I was registered, but I don't appear to be registered.
If I just play the songs now will my scores count retrospectively before the computer acknowledges that I'm registered? |

|
Re: Blitz Tournament 2
I want in (i registered but my name doesn't show on the dashboard).
edit: okay thanks devon |
Re: Blitz Tournament 2
You have to be manually placed. I'm checking in every half hour or hour to place people, but there's a small delay because I do have things to do.
|
Re: Blitz Tournament 2
I signed up and I haven't been placed yet, what do I do?

Re: Blitz Tournament 2
Nooo!
I should've seen this 2 days ago! Yesterday i would've been eligible for D3, but i went up 530 ranks! (3210 > 2780) (Also don't ask me how i went up 530 ranks, i have no ideaa) But now i'm D4 and get all the hardcore songs ;w; Verstuurd vanaf mijn LG-M200 met Tapatalk |
Re: Blitz Tournament 2
If you were that close to D4, there is a just about 100% chance that simply -playing- the D3 songs would have pushed you into D4 anyway.

i havent seen a single person who came in 1st place in a FFR tournament end up in the same division they started, often people start in like d3 and end up in d5 if they end up coming in 1st |
Re: Blitz Tournament 2
SoFast is So Fast
|
Re: Blitz Tournament 2
give me that saucy participation prize yeeet
|
Re: Blitz Tournament 2
also where all the donations to the prize pool yall
|
Re: Blitz Tournament 2
Devonin's rich, my theoretical 10,000 credit donation pales in comparison to his 2 million, and I have nothing interesting to say with my donation.
|
Re: Blitz Tournament 2
I'm in, I just hope i don't forget XD
|
Re: Blitz Tournament 2
Your 10k might be small compared to the total prize pool, but if you want you could donate it separately directly to a winner of your choice.
|
Re: Blitz Tournament 2
hoo boy, and so the derust begins.

Re: Blitz Tournament 2

|
Re: Blitz Tournament 2

Re: Blitz Tournament 2
You have to be manually placed, and I have to sleep some time.

Re: Blitz Tournament 2
Damn! Hell of a challenging de-rust. I signed up for the tourney hoping to practise before playing the files but again, I just haven't really had the time (nor the motivation), but I'll take the scores I've got - and the carpel tunnel. Top 5, as it stands, isn't too bad considering how far ahead the Top 4 are.
|
Re: Blitz Tournament 2
Prizing update in case people didn't see it on the main page.
All participants in the blitz who submitted every round will receive a special Hi19Hi19 Blitz Tournament Profile badge indicating whether they were a participant, top3, or division winner. All participants who advanced a division during the blitz will receive a special Division Advancement Profile Badge |
Re: Blitz Tournament 2
i cannot advance a division because i suck but i really want that cool token what can i do?
|
Re: Blitz Tournament 2
I've been thinking about what to do for D7s to give them an advancement token like that. probably it will be something like "Increase skill rating by 1 or more during a blitz"
What Etienne will do is another question. |
Re: Blitz Tournament 2
Question about the "Eligible Tokens" in the first post. Does every participant get to pick one or are those only for the top 3 in each division?
|
Re: Blitz Tournament 2
Top 3. As it said.
"Credits: 2,100,000 Tokens: Event Tokens for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd in each division" |
