Most people go straight to whatever it is they're doing.

I ALWAYS read the Front Page.

That's the two of you, I never literally meant no one but compared to the amount of users that are active on the site only a few actually use the front page. There was a thread that someone was asking about TGB even though the FPP was the top post on the page and when it was mentioned it was on the front page he's like who even uses that anymore? When I said like everyone a bunch of people came in there and basically laughed in my face for saying that. The overall result that came out of that thread was that most people don't really bother with it.

Plus on top of it there's been I don't know how many times that I've announced things on the front page and I still would get messages pertaining to whatever it was even though it was in plain view. The overall point was that a FPP doesn't get noticed by everyone anyway. The best course is PMs which was what we were planning on anyway. There were already PMs sent out to those who would be involved in a tiebreaker, and there will be more going out.

I pretty much use the front page as a means of navigation, even though it does seem like im the only one who does it (forever alone?) but anyway, suuuper hype for this round, cant wait to play 44 Edit. If the file is nearly consistent as the preview shows, I feel like it could be my first FGO AAA. Although, i know how the rest of the song goes, the beginning and the end around the preview are both more dense than other areas... who stepped the file?

[TC_Halogen]

Private messages have been sent out to everyone still remaining in the tournament. Congratulations to all of you making it to round 6.

(d4u: FissionMailed1 stepped it, and it's his first file. It's a fantastic first file to be in FFR.)

It went down for me once today for about 30 minutes, if that helps. It was like 2 hours ago when I got home from work.

Odd, I've been on all day and haven't noticed any downtime at all.

No reported problems on my side related to this forum having difficulties.

[d4u7211]

It's been good for me all day too (been hopping on my phone periodically all day) - and omg depending on how much I like the file I'm gonna have to send FM1 some sort of thank you, it's literally one of my favorite songs by T11 (said this before) and one of my top all time favorites - the file looks really well done from what I've seen. Gotta study for discrete math a little bit then I'll hop on the ~hYpe TrA1n~

[hi19hi19]

Nice frontpage post.

Seems like everything is going the best it can :/
Grats to everyone who is still in, though!

Weird, O.o Ive been gambling all day and its been fine :O haha

[mirror_eclipse]

I haven't had any problems with the site today; granted, I've just been jumping on the forums every now and then, checking this thread.

[Hateandhatred]

I'm late on here, but I second the FPP stuff. It's vital imo, and I check it everyday, actually more than the forums.

And honestly, FPP is essential for mainly people who are new to the website, or people who don't use the forums much. For example, I only started using the forums like barely a year ago, and I barely did know it was active back then (lol I just had no friggin' clue).

That's what I had to say about the FPP.

Now regarding the tournament, it would be nice to explain why it's been postponed on the front page post. I haven't bothered to check the forums to understand what's going on (because the site was so terrible in the past few days I would have been surprised to see something happening), until like, well, now.

It's simple convenience to simply write it there - even better, have it showing on the tournament page.

EDIT: Ninja'd by frontpage post LOL... I'll just leave this post here anyway, and just add thank you =)

We're talking about the top 8 of the tournament not other stuff like when passwords were stolen. Most people that are in the tournament are checking here if there's an issue or privately messaging. This is also another example that even though the FPP was up you came here first and didn't even know it was there. I even posted in this thread that there was a front page post up

My computer had this page opened for a few days, I simply didn't close the browser since I last went on. And last time I checked the FPP was like, after my class, at college. I very much always check out the FPP before doing anything else, if I even do anything else on the website.

And yeah, the top 8, D1 especially aren't all very big posters; like some people said, some haven't posted even once, and it's possible that they're not even aware of the forum's existence.

Still looked here first

Your instinct wasn't hey lets see if there's news on the front page about what's going on it was let me see what's up in the thread.

Been doing this for me today. I haven't been able to access the site for 3 days until today. I normally sit in the vidchat but haven't been able to access it at all for 3 days and the forums. Not saying its been happening to everyone just something from me.
