Hey, I like Miku, and have tried to send the best ones I could find that we have permission to use. If you know some more memorable ones we have permission for, please let me know.

Refer to the first post of this thread.

Submissions are very slow going right now. I hope there'll be at least another 40 or so submissions soon...

[mi40]

i think you guys should judge @ 90 files instead of 120

(less workload for judges as well)

since assuming 90 files every 2 months, and 3 songs on average per week
that's about 24 songs a month, or 48 songs every 2 months (including tournaments)

so with roughly a 50% or lower acceptance rate (out of 90), you guys will have just enough files

[VisD]

Aren't those numbers for 6 songs/week, whether regular or tournament week? 3 songs on regular weeks and 6 on tournament weeks would require a lot less files

90 instead of 120 is a good idea anyhow, or this batch really won't be done before the September period starts, lol

[hi19hi19]

Just set a date, like, batch closes on the 10th. Give judges a smaller batch to judge if it doesn't fill up.

If you don't get submissions full by then, there's no issue. People can just submit whenever they want (I thought that was the point of this system lol why the rush to fill the batch)

I'd step more but I have a really hard time finding music I like and can step.

o woops yeah

anyhow i think the batch should just be sent to judges after an X amount of time after the beginning of every 2 month 'open period'

[YoshL]

i'm just like, afraid of using my whole cap for this period.

with the previous system, i could put in my best files, and I knew that next batch, i'd always get those 4 slots if i could send fast enough.

now, i'm on the fence, because I want to save some submissions for after this batch is sent and judged, in case i can fix and re-submit other files, but at the same time, I still want to submit a bunch of files.

Personally, I think, with the new system, there should be cap changes to reflect how the new system works

I just finished a song and someone told me it would make a killer chart for FFR. I'm thinking about making a chart for it... Unless a more experienced simfile artist feels like doing it, I mean.

sent I'm Back, from ffr omnicore

incentive for people to get songs in for the batch:

tourney songs. faster the batch gets in, more likelihood of official tourney starting sooner

the person who told you this is in no way qualified to make that call. sorry to burst your bubble, but this is just going to turn into repetitive jumpstream if left uncut. even if it was cut, i don't think it has enough variety to make that great of a chart.

i thought it was just me who had this issue. it is a lot easier for stepmania since there is no permissions required.

[popsicle_3000]

i'll have to disagree. i think it could make a great chart. nothing wrong with repetitive JS

[yo man im awesome]

Why aren't WLL Oni and Robotomy in-game yet

I hated judging icyworld's Gate Openerz chart, because I really want to see something like that on FFR, but it would require me over-stepping my bounds as a judge to get something that's technically inaccurate in game. It's not going to be easy to come across a song that would make for that kind of brutally draining jumpstream. I wish FFR was structured like osu! or FTB sometimes, lol

Robotomy though... I personally can only wish in the future. I spent so long judging that file to make sure that it was technically accurate and it seems like everyone else is just like "nope". *sigh*

EDIT: P.S.
