Re: New Difficulty System Name Suggestions
From looking at this thread, it seems that we only have four options with choose from:
Go with nois-or-e: Stick with what the Game Managers discussed including a few things that the community wants. Go with Silvuh: To change the naming a bit for the easier difficulties (1-14) due to inconsistency while at the same time listening to what the community wants. He even gives out two example lists of consistency names for (15-19) and even states that if those does not work then you can go with his "expert/master/guru" idea. This basically balances out the two arguments IMO. Go with qqwref: Basically to stick with original difficulty names and change the scaling system. Go with someone who either completely changes everything or just go with someone who disagrees with everything lol

Re: New Difficulty System Name Suggestions
As easy as a level 2 song is, "effortless" really describes an experience that varies from one person to another. A newbie may not consider a level 2 as effortless, while he/she practices on level 1 songs. Same goes with the "gentle" descriptor.
However, if anyone has a better name for "training", that'd be good since it honestly sounds a bit weird too. |

Re: New Difficulty System Name Suggestions
I still think removing Training, shifting Beginner down to 2, and inserting Novice before or after Very Easy and Easy is the best option to go with if we're going with Jae's list, the rest is pretty much spot-on

Re: New Difficulty System Name Suggestions
Yeah, I like Novice, even though what exactly a novice is falls in the eyes of the beholder. But at least it sounds better than training.

Re: New Difficulty System Name Suggestions
Why do we even need a name for each?
Why is "FMO" a clearer way to tell a difficulty-11 song? I don't see why we don't call it a "D11" song instead. If a difficulty-2 song is "for beginners", how about a difficulty-1 song? For whom are difficulty-1 songs? I think those labels are just making things more confusing. 01 - D1 02 - D2 03 - D3 04 - D4 05 - D5 06 - D6 07 - D7 08 - D8 09 - D9 10 - D10 11 - D11 12 - D12 13 - D13 14 - D14 15 - D15 16 - D16 17 - D17 18 - D18 19 - D19 20 - D20 |

Re: New Difficulty System Name Suggestions
yeah, there's that thought, but didn't nois-or-e (forgive me if I'm incorrect) say that we were trying to keep the traditional naming scheme? that's the only reason the D1-D20 idea is probably going to get shot down.
I personally wouldn't mind that either. |

Personally, if you want to keep the original names, qqwref's idea would be best. If you want to keep the original names but at the same time remove the "For __ only" names and stuff that majority supports, nois-or-e's plan would be best. If you want a consistency of the difficulty names from 1-14 but at the same time, include "expert, master and guru" for 15-17 and most likely "brutal and relentless" for 18-19, (which is also stuff that most of the community supports), Silvuh's idea would be best.

Re: New Difficulty System Name Suggestions
Thoughts:
- Can "Beginner" and "Novice" co-exist? because they have similar meaning, if not exactly the same. "Beginner" sounds easier, though. - "Light" "Standard" "Heavy" are used for the description of different charts, also "Standard" is already in old rating system, so they might be arguable. - If we insert something after "Challenging", "Demanding" or "Intense"? - We may need to confirm a few words that are widely-tolerated for hardest part. Currently it looks "Brutal", "Ridiculous", "Legendary", "Insane", "???" are supported by some people here. |

Re: New Difficulty System Name Suggestions
We've swapped out training, moved beginner down one and put novice into where beginner was.
Seems the final discussion before this goes live is if we really need to change Ridiculous. The charts that will fall under the Ridiculous label are: RATO -- Death Piano -- party 4u -holy nite mix- -- Metro Revolutionary Etude -- do I smile? Rave7 -- Crowdpleaser The wisest were wrong -- Winter Wind Etude Husigi Usagi Milk Tei Any suggestions? Things like Legendary reference something awesome/great, not something difficult. Currently the fact that to 99.9% of the community the above charts are Ridiculously hard seems to be the clincher...
