Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

my bad, I meant D5D, reason being is that I think i'm highest in my division atm.. just from the names I know in there

aaa image I messed up on with link - http://i.imgur.com/eUSwX.png

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

Yeah, I'm still in the process of finalizing everything for that trip. If it comes down to it, we can figure something out for that time period closer to said dates. There might be a few small windows i can get a score through, but i cant tell you for sure.

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

I don't care at all if these look right or anything but I figured I'd jokingly give these a try.

The non dump: Sight AAAed. Woot.
The dump: I gave it a serious attempt... And then I did the play that you now see here.


Stupid misses weren't from framers just bad somehow I messed up my mashing.

Everyone in team blaze got a kick outta listening to me talk while playing these.

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

I'm sure you had choice words.
Let's say I've heard enough to know that this isn't your kind of file :p

Also Spon Con is finished. Middie your scores were about an hour late, I'll count 'em anyway but no more after this.
I will be doing an update of all the scores tonight.
Credits will be handed out when the divisions are finalized (this includes for the videos)

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

Like I said I posted them for fun. I don't mind if you don't send me anything.

Also the real thing I said was "****ing hell I missed."

There's nothing really bad to say about the actual one vs LOL WHY on the dump.

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

So I was going to spend tonight finishing up some round 4 files and doing an update.

Instead, yo man im awesome IMmed me with a cool song and I spent like half an hour syncing it for Stepmania even though I definitely was not going to use it in my tournament or even step it myself at all.

I BLAME YO MAN
HIS FAULT I GOT DISTRACTED NOT MINE

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

Well it's going to happen in some tournament, it might as well be this one. ;) Prepare to be raped. :D

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

Ben you'll be to busy missing.

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

Raw scoring trololol

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

...

Just because it's raw scoring doesn't change anything really.

Logically it's

perfect = 50
good = 25
average = 5
Miss = -60- -15 (-10 + the 50 from not getting a perfect ect)
Boo = - 5

Missing is still just as bad in raw scoring realistically. He's still at a good disadvantage.

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

1 miss = 2 goods and 2 boos, trololol

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

I'd say losing only a little more than 2 goods worth of points is better than your score simply not counting at all anymore after you miss.

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

Work did not permit me to have the time to post for SponCon but this will be for the lolz:


Singing helped a bit, teehee~

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

>___>; 1 was near the end where it was "holy fck 32nd jumpstream can't do it.."

The other three was from the first 24th handstream... ... Seriously. I can't jumpstream for crap.

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

Chris, just thought I should throw out there (and I don't expect it to count)

I got 74-7-12-7 on the dump hehu. I really enjoy that file



(lol 1/10th the amount of goods my submission had hahahah)

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

;_;

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

Yup, watch me sdg with a few misses on some songs while the rest of you fc with over 30 goods. Bwahahaha...

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

ty for the honesty.
I'm making a list of all the suggested division movements people have suggested, and I'm also finally getting a chance to update the Spon Con and the new donation I got from Tidus810 :)

EDIT-
Prizepot is 3.4 million on the dot
It's as if icy donated 100 thousand times hehu
ty to all the donators! (And especially Sprite- for resetting everyone's credits :P)

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

Hi my name is Midnight



And this is jackass.

PS: <3

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

Jesus why are we still donating at this point.

At this rate, by the time the tourney ends 10th place wins 1m credits.

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

To make the pot more ridiculous

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

stop donating to hi19

donate to Anaru

:(

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

Updated the Spontaneous Contest scores and videos.
Please check your Spon Con score under the "past rounds" section to make sure I got your score and video correct. There was a lot to update and I wouldn't want to have missed something by accident.
I'll reiterate that the credits are not going to be handed out until the start of Round 1, when the divisions are finalized. Thank you for your patience.

Anaru I'm not counting your scores, you should know better :evil:
/scolded
(besides you didn't beat dossar anyway)
Of course I am counting your video, which was pretty funny, so you do get the 25k for that and extra for hilarious falsetto.


Division movements suggested:
JJTrixX: D2B -> D2A (Definitely doing this. ty again to JJTrixX for the honesty)
Cyth The Raccoon: D3A -> D4B (very borderline. I am concerned about how few people there would be left in D3A, however)
Breakdown16: D4A -> D4B (strongly considering this, any thoughts to the contrary?)
zegsigma: D1 -> D2B (PA is just too strong on 9s and up for D1)
MrPreggers: D3A -> D4A (some really good FGO PA scores. Honestly your levelranks make no sense to me... how is it you can PA and even SDG FGOs but have such weak scores in other areas?)
Findarian: D4A -> D5D (wasn't just your Moskau score -which would actually win even if you were D5C lmao- but you were borderline the entire time and I think your FGO ability is too good for D4)
Tidus810: D4A -> D5D (yeah this is happening whether you like it or not, you don't belong in D4 lmao)

noname219 has been placed in D3B for now. Let me know if there are any objections to that.

Still updating a last few things atm, gimme a sec

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

/scolded

indeed T_T

oh i wasnt expecting credits for the score, just for the video :twisted:

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

Okay got the last few donations (3.5 million get !_!) and double checked everything else.

Phew.

p.s. 226k in total to be given out in total for the videos, and that's not counting the prizes for scoring in the Spon Con
I intend to use at least 500k for side games and stuff, so we're well on our way :)

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

lol, really, i gotta mash all but about 4 dif 9's and most dif 8's haha, i can't PA anything 9 and above :P

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

D5D sounds like much better placement for me, I'll agree with you there.

Is this gonna be a AAA tourney or attempt to pa tourney (things like Moscow)

Because if it is AAA, then I'm done for in the earlier rounds xD

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

I always find the side games more fun than the tourney anyways (not saying the tourneys aren't fun,) so this makes me happy :')

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

Neither lol
It starts out in "struggle to SDG" territory and advances into "I feel like I can FC this but it will take a lot of tries" territory and the finals are "well, I can read it. Mostly."
The [Dump] chart was really a dump, only the D5 finals is going to be that hard as far as legit tournament files go.

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

awesome, then I might have a chance in my division! I rock at harder dumps (at least most of em lol)

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

Oh while we're at it, here's another teaser :)

This is a shot of the file's really funky solo section.
Lots of good rhythms!

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

I was really hoping for D3B because there was no other scores for the Spon contest. :twisted: I'm just wondering if you're going to wait until the end of the tournament to send the credits ?

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

That's for the Spon Con.
Obviously I have to wait until the tournament is over for the main pot :p

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

NOT ENUF CREDITZ

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

WTF GIVE ME SOME CREDS OMg

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

lol I have more than 4 million credits right now

I feel like such an internet high-roller
gonna savor this while it lasts 8)
before back down to just over 350k after the payout hehu

ty ben!

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

I meant to ask this earlier. Which Engine are we using?

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

dossars

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

p.s. try reading the OP

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

With the credit pot getting so absurdly large (probably one of the largest "legit" pots for a custom tournament ever?) I figured it would be nice to address exactly how the credits will be given out.

My thoughts were to have about 1/2 the pot be for final payout, 1/3 of the pot be for individual round scoring, and roughly 1/6 of the pot be for side games.
I'm definitely sticking with individual round scoring- I like the way you can win at any time, even if you've fallen behind overall. Plus it suitably rewards people who are absurdly good at one pattern but weak at others (people who are pro at jacking and only jacking come to mind heh)
And I am doing division-blind payouts. It always bothered me when D5 would get more credits than D1 just... because. I think that if you try your hardest and win, then you get the same prize as someone else who tried their hardest and won in another division. Not debating that.

That said:
qqwref had a nice chat about the scoring system and he mentioned that he would prefer a "tournament points" system to cumulative scoring.
The advantages of this (I would be using a 90% point system just like devonin is using in his FFR league) are numerous:
- prevents the first rounds from feeling like they "don't really count"
- weights different skills more evenly, such as PAing vs comboing
- people who crush their division in one file for whatever reason are rewarded for doing so already by individual round scoring, so that is less of an issue

What are people's opinion on me switching from cumulative scoring to a tournament point structure?

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

Do ittttttttttttt!

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

I loovee the idea of getting points instead of cumulative song points :D

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

im still going to get wrecked either way x.x

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

I would prefer cumulative scoring.
Although I also enjoy elimination tourneys.

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

My proper Brutality Tournaments went by Tournament Points. The first two went by cumulative scoring and basically the guy who was in the lead got crushed a shitload by the last round.

I find it better to use Tournament Points in this case so that way there isn't that unfair advantage (and this isn't elimination either!). I also think tournament points will encourage more submissions since my Hip Hop Tournament had a severe submission problem.

Also dammit why isn't there a sidebar on the main FFR page already that lists the current tournaments

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

It doesn't make a difference to me, as long as it works out fair in the end.

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

Yeah I am strongly considering making the change. The later rounds get much harder than the first 3 rounds and it would be weird if it felt like the first rounds "didn't count"



and btw:
oh sftu and start practicing already :P

Sympathy meter: empty

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

i got a few tricks up my sleeve. MASH MASH MASH

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

hi19, did you look at the last Dragon Fury tournament? The pot was really big, and was more evenly distributed. Just about everybody got a substantial amount of credits due to the large pot. I was 1st place in D5, but I didn't get a million or near-million credits; the pot was weighted more evenly amongst the contestants.

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

I have been looking at that, and I had mixed reactions.
On one hand, I absolutely agree that anyone who manages to submit for all rounds will get credits. That's going to happen in this tournament as well, no question.
However I do like the feeling that if you win, you WIN. There has to be a reward for excellence, otherwise why have a tournament at all?

Anyway what makes you think it will be unevenly weighted? The prize for winning in tournament points will not actually be much larger at all than the second place prize due to individual round scoring- considering that whoever wins overall probably won the most individual rounds as well.
I have it planned out in that regard- the rewards for the tournament points scoring is going to fairly spread out, because the individual round scoring will take care of part of the "greater reward for greater accomplishment" aspect


Am I making sense at all? **** what am i writing

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

In! D1/D2B!

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

sorta had to read this two and a half times to get what you're saying, but yeah

I'm not implying that the prizes will be unevenly distributed. I'm just making an fyi. The winner-takes-all sort of distribution applies more or less to smaller pots from what I've seen. In the DF tournament however, everybody who finished the tourney got credits, regardless of their placements.

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

That's definitely going to happen here. Submit for every round, and you will be getting credits. Probably a fair amount of them too, considering how big the pot is.

Okay!
Welcome to the tournament, and the forums :P

I'll get back to you on the division placement in a bit, but at a glance D2B looks like a safe bet.
A handful of your scores on Very Challenging levels put you well out of the D1 range :)

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

loved the lag w/ the others

let the trash talk begin!
thong you may as well quit now while the score is still even. you wouldn't want someone without any tp beating you :)

welcome!!

Good thing you're against Dossar in D5A and aren't going to win anything as a result LOL
just jokin you're probably going to get a ton of credz anyway

Re: hi19hi19's Delicious Custom Theme Tournament
 

So I made this really cool file to a song many of you may be familiar with (Eh!? Sugoi, desu ne!)


But the only round this would fit, I already have a song for that division planned and now I don't know which to use.
*ah* the many issues with running a theme tournament.
Oh well, I hope you enjoy this preview anyway. If I don't wind up using this in the main tournament, the file will definitely be a tiebreaker file if such a thing is needed for the lower divisions.


If you're curious, it's 118 BPM and thus, it's either a very high 9 or a very low 10.
