FFR Community Pack Summer 2012 Released

[TwistedPhoenix]

The release party marathon went on for a good 4 1/2 hours. Much fun was had, and there was an awesome amount of people (For the first hour or two at least).

Also, Alex dropped like 4 or 5 AAAA's during the course of his stay.

[kommisar]

still had lots to play though lmao

[Choofers]

lol you really do miss the point. I'm going to try to illustrate this if it can help you.

Let's pretend bmah invented this:


It's meant to be used like this:


But, really, some people complain about it, saying it's terrible. How did they use it? Like this:


Not only their methods of tasting were dumb, they were also inappropriate. Bmah has every reason to be annoyed: those reviews are illegitimate.

reception for El Perdedor have been better than I expected.

Curious what people have to say about House of Pleasure

[Bynary Fission]

Glad you liked my files Alex. I could have sworn I sent Magewind to you for testing years ago but guess not, I'm just glad people get to play it now.

I'm glad you can appreciate different styles of stepping, but it sure sounded like you expected one thing out of me.

Actually, I said that because I expect high-quality files from you: I actually like almost everything you step and that was a major let-down for me at the time I played it. I didn't know it was a mine file, it was more or less a misunderstanding. My bad.

Hey, what's wrong with the way I review files?

[Gundam-Dude]

there aren't many brave stepmen out there that experiment openly, so you have to at least give kudos to bmah for being one of those few brave souls

I experiment all the time myself and it's either hit or miss with people but I'm BRaVe enough to venture and explore further than the traditional STeP BouNDaRieS

Hey, what's wrong with the way I review files?

lets take into consideration how you're reviewing experimental files with subtractive mods and a limiting playstyle

[kommisar]

that's why I use rolls in my files

I didn't know it was an experimental file when I reviewed it. But since you've brought that to my attention, I'll be sure to play Vortex the way you intended it before reviewing. And my playstyle shouldn't really affect how I view a file, a good file is a good file regardless of how you play even if I can't destroy it.

The steps felt very methodical in places, but I believe that was necessary for the song. Overall I think you captured the feel of the song nicely.

I might do an in depth review tomorrow. From the handful of songs that I played, none have disappointed.

So far, my favorite files have been (in no particular order):
-BattleJam
-EXE
-My unfortunate erection
-Ryukotsuki
-Watch Out pt2
-House of Pleasure
-London
-Passage D

Btw, I'm liking the positive feedback from Come On so far. I'm glad you're enjoying it :]

DON'T WAKE ME FROM THE DREAM (2010 SUMMER EDITION) - wrong number of mines you ****ing idiot

[Reshiram]

Welp, seems EXE was a bit better received, half-expected that. :P Yes, my latest releases are modern-style resteps to older songs, it's my area of comfort; deal Though, I've got a good few WIPs of undone songs so I guess for Autumn I can grab those and/or collab with others on stuff.

And personally, I just don't see what everyone else likes so much about Kneegrow's old file, but eh, opinions etc.

Oh and alex ps 192nds for accenting the almost 'vocal-sounding' beats in the piano part~

That's exactly what I wanted to get at with this file.

... 0_o are you serious?

I used Ketchup as an analogy to simplify the situation going on between bmah and the reviewers who played his song the wrong way because you didn't seem to understand what was going on. If I were to compare your statement to something, it wouldn't be ketchup... it would be poop
