FFR Challenges Expire After 7 Days Now

Posted in Flash Flash Revolution on March 6th, 200764 Comments »

Some of you may have noticed that the FFR Challenges that were pending for you (and consequently were holding credits) has been updated. We now expire challenges that are 7 days old.

Additionally, we are doing some profile updates and tweaks to the profile chat in the coming hours.

Expect another news story, and if I am dumb enough, even another token tonight.

More shortly.

Hear FFR Artists Live!

Posted in Flash Flash Revolution on February 28th, 200738 Comments »

Hey guys, here’s a heads up:

1) If you’re in the Ohio area on March 24, 2007, you should attend the Autobahn Electronic Pop Festival. FFR artists Joy Electric and Freezepop are going to be there – with any luck, we might be hearing some familiar music.
It would be really nice to see a whole crew of people there in amazingly good-looking FFR shirts. This will also allow these artists know how much we appreciate their hard work. As an added bonus, the shirt will have the girls (or guys) jumping on you like cling wrap.

2) If you’re not going to be in the Ohio area on March 24, buy a plane ticket there, or drive. If you don’t have a car, remember, hitchhiking is legal in 46 states.

Cheers,
Chardish & Spontaneous Road Trips

Another quick note (these are all going to be quick, until the tourney ends): Round 3 of the tournament started this past Monday, so you have until next Tuesday (February 27th) at 11 PM EST to submit. Less than a quarter of the players who signed up are still in…and another half or so will be eliminated this week as well.

You can find this round’s songs and matchups, in this thread in Brag Board.

Happy tournamenting,

4x the fun on Tass’s day of birth

Posted in Flash Flash Revolution on February 15th, 200771 Comments »

So, in honor of my birthday, I have added 4 new files for everyone. Why 4? Because 2007 marks the 4th time that I have shared my birthday with all of the fine folks on FFR. 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007. My 20th, 21st, 22nd, and 23rd birthdays. No link for 20th, as I really wasn’t posting on the forums then. And please do not bump the old topics… but feel free to read and enjoy them.

Onto the SONGS!

That is Fair is our first addition from Vospi, although expect a few more in the near future. It is of Very Difficult difficulty, having some 16th streams with 32nds mixed into it for fun. Great song all around and excellent steps by mass stepfile producer hi19hi19. It is located on page 1 of Dance2.

Aztec Templing is a remix by our very favorite DM Ashura. The original is by Hi-G. Quite unique in sound, and Very Challenging in difficulty, mostly because of the 205bpm 8th jumps that cause the jack bug to take effect. Oh well. This can also be found in Dance2, page 3. Stepfile by our other mass producer of awesomely quality files… Rebirth0.

DJ Sane - Troglodytic Epica

Troglodytic Epica is our first song DJ Sane, who goes by Sane here at FFR. The song is Epic Trance, and has a larger than life sound that will keep you playing for all 4 minutes and 31 seconds. As with most of the files by dore, this one is not overly challenging, but the length alone makes it difficult. There is also one small jump-burst section that could prove a bit tricky. We rate it Difficult and you can find it on the last page of Dance.

Finally, we have {Blaze}, by highly popular cornandbeans. Stepped by Kit-, this file is a fun fix of jumps and stream. Fairly challenging, we rated it a high 4.5/6, or Challenging. If you enjoy the song {Rose}, you’ll love {Blaze}.

Thanks again to everyone here on this site. Without all of you guys, I wouldn’t be so motivated to do all the things that I do around here.

-Tass… little bit older, still working on getting wise.

2nd Official FFR Tournament: Round 1

Posted in Flash Flash Revolution, Tournament on January 31st, 200753 Comments »

Okay, so after a week of looking through an unimaginably large number of levelrank lists, I finally finished placing everyone…which means it’s time to begin the tournament!

If you’re one of the over a thousand players who signed up for this tournament, check this thread to see which division you’re in and which song you’ll be playing. Send a screenshot of the best score you can get on your division’s main song (you can submit as many screenshots as you want, only the last one counts) to shashakiro@yahoo.com. You can also use FFR’s Private Message system to send me screenshots of your scores. Only scores achieved after the start of the round are valid. Remember, there are prizes for the top 8 spots in each division, and the top 3 of each division get cash prizes.

More information and rules for the tournament can be found here.

The first round ends on Wednesday, February 7th at 11:00 PM EST. Don’t forget to submit a score before then if you’re in the tournament!

Happy FFR’ing,

Song of the Week 2: Z

Posted in Flash Flash Revolution on January 29th, 200732 Comments »

A few hours ago, the second of our songs this week, Z, was released. Rebirth0 stepped this awesome DM Ashura song for us, and it’s packed with tons of 24th bursts, as well as a big BPM change that gives us some green and orange arrows too. The song can be found in Dance’s lower left corner, and is a 4.5 on the 6-point difficulty scale.

Happy FFR’ing,

Song of the Week 2: Get Ready 2 Rokk

Posted in Flash Flash Revolution on January 21st, 200750 Comments »

Today’s song is another that may be familiar to many of you from another music game–this time, it’s from the popular game Guitar Hero. The song is Get Ready 2 Rokk by Freezepop. It’s the original version of the song (as opposed to the Guitar Hero version), and as such is in the Misc genre rather than the Rock genre. It’s relatively slow at under 100 BPM, and is mainly comprised of 16ths. Difficulty is 7/12, which is the “Difficult” rating, mostly due to the jacks that appear in many places in the song, and the steps are by Macgravel.

Stay tuned for more updates in the near future…and possibly something of an event starting soon =)

Happy FFR’ing,

Shash
