Re: Suspicious scores thread
my question is who really cares lmfao
there are only like handful of active players left on ffr l o l let them have some fun, or wipe their scores and whatever because ffr is serious business. (with its MASSIVE playerbase) |

Did you miss the uproar on AJ only having one alt account that he plays downscroll on? Seems people care.

I don't see what this has to do with anything. You know what your case is with the combining of grandtotal if that's where this is coming from. When it comes to icy what stats does he have on these alts that would need combining exactly? The scores on the alts all appear to be quite easily obtainable for him. |

What I was trying to get at is I think we have more important issues to focus on such as a) how to keep our playerbase (whatever is left) interested or Re-interested in playing this game b) how do we attract newer players. Because FFR has been for a while now on a pretty downward spiral in activity even though content continues to be added and we must evaluate the situation as to what the causes are, and what we can do the prevent or mitigate them... Focusing on issues of ACTIVE players having multiple accounts shouldn't be that important in a larger context if you have no influx of newer players, ya know? Or you can not address the problems and just see where we end up... Last edited by Coolboyrulez0; 01-7-2013 at 02:49 PM.. |

Re: Suspicious scores thread
The way the official rules are set up for alt accounts, you can get grey areas like this. I'm fairly certain that IcyWorld didn't make those accounts specifically to flood scoreboards.
We should probably change the site rules to limit the number of alt accounts to 1 or something, or perhaps change it so only alt accounts that play a different style are allowed. Of course if this were to happen, it couldn't be retroactive because that would probably cause some sort of community uproar considering the last few pages of this thread. But better late than never to make site rules less vague I guess.

I thought it was just optional to have them wiped or not, and it sure seemed that way since the rule isn't being enforced beyond what people offer upon their own accord. As far as I know, I'm the first non-bs person with many alt accounts that got called on, so this is kind of awkward. Personally I like having my alt accounts, I like to know I can play under a different username. Most of them are characters from video games, or tv shows, and it just makes it that much more fun. I don't have much reason to play on my main account, other than to try and keep my AAA count super high, or to GT whore, or to just play new songs, but those things aren't much fun to me anymore. Having alt accounts to play on feels more casual to me. So if you need a personal reason for not wiping (it sounded like if i offered one this would happen) then there ya go.

Re: Suspicious scores thread
This is just my opinion, but I feel that this is kind of unnecessary. The only thing I really see this affecting is ave rank and I don't find that a very big deal especially because if you AAA something you're always rank 1 (however I do see this bothering some people). I have a few alts myself just for fun because sometimes it gets boring on a main account when you already have good scores on every song. Idk this just doesn't seem like a big deal to me.

I'll let the community weigh in their opinions but I honestly think that you should choose an alt to keep and allow the rest to be wiped in fairness of everyone else. |

Re: Suspicious scores thread
hmm, well due to fairness you can go ahead and wipe my alt accounts, didn't get too many scores on any of them but the alts I have are:
MysticSuicune Derpy_Hooves 1 PERFECT EDIT: I also have this old 1 hand account almost forgot about it: Vivace1234 However I no longer have access to that Vivace1234 account because that was the time when the database messed up or whatever, only had 2 FC's on it though, so I have no desire to keep it.

Why not make this whole thing a new project for coders (admins or not) to link Alt accounts to the main one and have their lvlranks only private, so if you take AJ for example, he could still see his stats on a seperate lvlranks page and everything but only the main account's scores would be registered in the songs' leaderboard. |

Re: Suspicious scores thread
How about a "greylisted" status where an account can still track scores but isn't included in the leaderboard for ranks?

Re: Suspicious scores thread
I like opkiller's and qqwref's ideas lmfao
Anyways, I'd like to keep my Satsuru and IcyWorld alt accounts unwiped. They're my oldest and I came up with the usernames so I feel ever so slightly more connected to them than the rest. You can wipe: Flonne Angel Beauty Queen Etna Princess Daisy RainbowDash Sheena Fujibayashi Dark Magician Girl Amy Rose Priere Princess Luna Princess Cadance Princess Cadence Grimer Corngesceot I did play on some of these a lot, so it's kind of addicting and hard to let go of something I put that much time in to.

Re: Suspicious scores thread
Continuing on xXOpKillerXx idea..
- Create a page to add a levelrank to your account with a limit. * The levelrank page will make you create a profile so you can pick in the .swf the profile you want to play on. (see how stepmania profiles work..) - Automatically hide the scores from alts in leaderboard but show them in levelranks. (without affecting leaderboard obviously) ... Everyone are on one account. Leaderboards can get fixed with less confusion. If you make a thread about it, it can makes things clear for everyone. People with a good reason could have their levelrank sheet moved from their alt to their main before wipe but that's low priority imo. Edit: I guess qqwref's idea works too even if that's still technically multiple accounts. Last edited by Hakulyte; 01-7-2013 at 03:27 PM.. |
