Let's face it: it's a blunder in the scoring system which keeps FFR unique. Unfortunately, we feed off of this "bad planning" to ironically maintain FFR's "unique" image. That means combo-based scoring is here to stay.

To be honest, an issue as broad as that would have to have been fixed in the very early days of FFR. Now we rely on it as our "asset" to being different from other rhythm games.

yeah seriously, I never understood why it was a taboo song when we had permission for Kankaoh. I never get a decent explanation for this. Therefore, the only solution: add it back or restep the song!

The fact that you didn't say anything about ghosting scores not going to happen gives me an inkling of hope that it might :3

Determining when every user has last been active every time the ranks are pulled and/or calculated would be pretty SQL intense. If I figure out an easier way, I'll get back to you on it.

Velo, is it at least possible to make the judge of an MP win/loss be raw scoring instead of lolcomboscoring, or at least make it no gain or loss if someone's raw score is better but the other person's total score is better?

I'd have to look at the code for MP, which is like listen to Justin Bieber on repeat for 15 hours, to determine how easy it is.

Best suggestion I've ever seen. Definitely pisses me off when I miss one or two keys due to retarded fingers and the opponent mashes their ass off and gets the worst PA you'd ever see..just to win.

+1

my major turnoff of MP. it doesn't compare true skill and talent. I'd love to see this implemented in MP.

I don't play MP because of the scoring system. What if you get a lag spike when playing and you break your combo on some noob song, then some random who just joined FFR beats you and knocks your MP level down to nothing? It's happened too many times to me, I'm sick of trying to get MP exp back.

Suggestion: <-- introduce a new icon that appears at the top right (alongside votes, friends requests, etc) for whenever you are quoted on the FFR forums. It then directly links to the quoted response.

Suggetsion mentioned to me on my profile that I liked a lot:

A standardized form you can link to artists that they can quickly fill out to give their permission.

Advantages:
Can put all the information in one place.
Easy to link to prospective artists.
Allows very easy record keeping of all our permissions.

Disadvantages:
... none? Probably pretty easy to code and implement, I don't see why not.
