7th Official FFR Tournament

[Charu]

Oh man, the SDG cutoff for D4 is getting smaller and smaller. I'm thinking by tomorrow night it's going to be maybe ...2 or something.

I was lucky to have Rave7 as the actual round instead of do i smile. No offense but do i smile is just shit ragebait if you're using it for a tournament. Rave7 I had no problem with playing at all, it was fun, a flawless tournament file, being hard everywhere. Props to hi19hi19 for making such a fitting last round.

Also any reasonable player can agree samurai7694 was just unlucky last tournament. A difference of 1 good means you can do the file, but you didn't turn out so fortunate.

Honestly the only problem I have with anyone else getting #1 is that they're getting like 20 goods on DP's last trill and having some relatively simple stuff give them so many problems, yet they're tackling really weird anchor crap. Earlier as I said, the person I would want #1 most if it isn't me is Sakish, because he was one of *the most* influential players back in 2008 for me.

in before huge Middie rage because booflag

[Xx{Midnight}xX]

I'm actually alright with it. The fact I got a chance through shitty lag to improve makes it alright.

Also that Boo was rather stupid as that's not even the part of the chart that I think is the gayest. I just got nervous. Replay's in the scores thread.

Edit:

But because I can.

MOTHER. ****ING. BOOFLAG.

I wish I had more time to practice and try and get an inkling of my old skill back to where it was, but I've realized that's going to take more time than I've been given. I can't even FC the D5 song without mashing a small section or two.

So looks like I'll be out first or second round for sure. Good luck to everyone!

so you don't want people to beat you in the tournament because they're not as good as you at shit patterns

[DossarLX ODI]

Actually, it's the other way around

They're better than me at shit patterns but taking the same unthinking approach to the files which screws them over sometimes LMFAO

I've seen them make comments about actually taking some screenshots of certain parts of the files though, so they're actually getting a closer look now. That's literally the only reason I have been able to stand any chance at all; my first FC on Rave7 was 12-1-0-0 before any inspection

This worked for me, I'm running on a shitty laptop using windows xp, so stop your complaining... no one wants to hear it anyways.

I'd rather see more posts of people being dicks than people complaining tbh

it's an excuse when i'm getting 25+ goods on ex-FMO rated files on Velocity engine when I normally have the capability of AAAing high FGO files *on Velocity engine* and I have top 8 or better rank on every song using the Velocity engine.

That's not an excuse. Results are results, and I'm not about to hinder my progress in the tournament because something happened with the engine, nor should you to sit and say that people are whining and complaining when even you were having an issue with the old engine yourself. None of us were having issues before, so it's far from unreasonable to complain about it.

Finding a solution to get a horribly outdated engine to run properly when your default engine (or preference, as you say) isn't working properly is contradictory because it doesn't solve the initial problem that -we're- having. Call it an excuse, but your "solution" isn't viable.

[dragonmegaXX]

Thanks whoever edited/ deleted ^-^

[DossarLX ODI]

Saw Middie's post before it got deleted

This is the 7th Official FFR Tournament, not the Official Fetish Tournament thread guys, LMFAO

Also, I really think Velocity should consider uploading an earlier engine before all this lag started occurring for a lot of players. Unless the dashboard also has some extra script which the earlier engines didn't have.

[Coolboyrulez0]

Oddly enough I'm running Flash 11 Standalone (32bit) on Win7 using Velo's engine, like always, and there has not been a grain of additional lag except the visual lag syndrome in which the notes seem choppy every 1/5th playthrough, i which case I boo out, hit try again and it's fixed. I sincerely do hope that the lag is fixed for others or at least can be identified as to what is causing it, because I'd go berserk if I'd lose due to something like lag.

[Hakulyte]

I think R^2 should have been temporary given public access during Official Tournament to compensate lag. It's a veteran only feature but still.. that's kind of counter-productive for lag issues and competition in general.

Either you don't know what viable means or you just felt like using it in a sentence today.

See definition 3

It worked for me, and I'm sure it could work for someone else, that's why I posted it in the first place. I too was having lag issues, realized my problem was using flash11, switched to flash9, used the legacy engine and BOOM it worked... so please tell me again how that is not "viable" now that you really know the definition... Oh, what's that, you mean it IS viable? Well I already knew that. Thanks brah

For someone like me who is pretty sure he could AAA his song without too much trouble, but is stuck closer to 20g due to lag, and due to various real life circumstances hasn't been able to play more than an hour this week, getting used to a new engine in order to get a score literally isn't happening. I'm gonna be really disheartened if I get knocked out this round because of some stupid lag problem that's just appeared

a : capable of working, functioning, or developing adequately

you just linked me to a definition that makes complete sense with what I said, considering you haven't provided a working/successful/adequate solution, so perhaps you should realize that you're too incredibly thick to understand an implied definition.

I agree with Hakulyte, by the way.

[Zakvvv666]

I myself am not really having any major problems with lag, but for those who are, I really think something should be done soon, otherwise it isn't very fair compared to the few of us who don't have the problem.

While I may have done some 'complaining' about people who should be bumped to D5, when it comes to actually playing against people at my skill level, I would rather play against them when they aren't lagging like shit.
