Songs of the Week and Weekly Update 9/23/2023
We’re back to our weekly Songs of the Week releases after the 16th Official Tournament! The tournament brought around 100 new songs and we decided to pause for around a month before resuming. We’ve got some songs on the easier side this time around to appease your appetite, with one new musician this week. We hope you enjoy!
Current Events
For those that haven’t taken part yet, we’ve been doing weekly token giveaways on our Discord server. For more details, please check out this thread. We give one event token away each week on Sunday for three weeks per month, and all you have to do to be eligible is participate!
Also, registration for StepCon 2023 has begun and will be available for another week before sign-ups close! For those unfamiliar with StepCon, it is a Stepauthor and Charting competition typically held every year to put some of the best community creators head-to-head to see who can create the best set of notes to the same song. Winners could even see their finished song released in-game! If you wish to sign up, head on over to the sign-up page here! There’s also more information and details about the rules and procedure of the competition on the forum page here.
The Round-Table Special Batch is still open until October 1st, 2023. You can find more details in the thread. There’s also only one week left in Season 8, so get those top seasonal plays in while you can!

Post-FFR 16th Official Tournament + Batch Open
You can also check the 16th Official Tournament thread for more info.
We have finally come to the end of FFR’s 16th Official Tournament! 94 songs released involving 28 new Musicians, contested between 252 players for the best score, over 2 months of tournament-filled, edge-of-the-seat competition.
We will be working tirelessly to ensure that all the prizes and awards are distributed to the participants of the 16th Official Tournament. However, I want to take this opportunity to express my immense gratitude once again to the OT committee and went through tons of submissions meticulously fine-tuned the song choices and difficulties for this tournament. The magnitude and quality of this event would simply not be achievable without their contributions.
Lastly, a heartfelt thank you to everyone who took part in the tournament, engaged in discussions, and joined us for the previews. The warmth and camaraderie of this community are beyond compare, and I feel truly fortunate to be part of such a friendly and supportive group.

Also a short reminder that if you did participate in the Official Tournament and you feel like you haven’t received your prizes by let’s say, Thursday, August 31th, 2023, then please post in the Official Tournament thread or contact Velocity directly through DM’s and we’ll work on getting it resolved!
In unrelated news, batch submissions have opened up with a Special Round Table Batch with more information found in the thread here.
