FFR R1 Tournament – Round 1
In case you don’t know already, signups for the tournament are over, and Round 1 began this past Monday.
If you signed up for the tournament, check the first post of this thread to see what division you’re in, who you’re up against, and what song you’ll be playing. Remember, the tiebreak song is only needed if you and your opponent tie on the main song. 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.
More information and rules for the tournament can be found here.
The first round ends on Monday, September 18 at 10:00 AM EST. Don’t forget to submit a score before then if you’re in the tournament!
Cheers,
3rd Style Update!
Hey everyone,
I just wanted to keep everyone updated on our status with FFR 3rd Style. The programming part is moving along, but that’s not really my realm of expertise (Flash is like a foreign language to me). Instead, I’ve been working on gathering artists and songs for 3rd Style.
We have 21 songs gathered so far for 3rd Style, with absolutely no signs of stopping anytime soon. The best part about this is that I think that the music we’re getting is some of the best music we’ve ever had – and we’ve already got a great music lineup, so that’s saying a lot. In addition to new artists, there are many veteran FFR artists giving us new music – some who you would expect, some who you wouldn’t. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised at some of the tracks you’ll find in 3rd Style.
Also, I know we’ve featured a lot of trance lately in our Songs of the Week, but the music we’ve got for 3rd Style is much more diverse. (I’ve got a genre list in front of me, and only four songs out of the 21 are trance!) There’ll be some much needed representation from other genres in the mix.
I am absolutely thrilled at all the progress we’ve been making so far. All of us are working really hard to make 3rd Style a reality, and I know you won’t be disappointed with the results.
Cheers,
Chardish and the rest of the 3rd Style team
Ranker My Server
So… ever since Jason and Synthlight made the upgrades and improvments to our quad opteron server, LD has wanted to really push the limits of our mysql server. A few mountain dew’s later, LD brings us Level Rank Stats. What the page will show you, when logged in, is a listing of your rank on every song you’ve played, ordered from best to worst.
What does this allow you to do? Well… it allows you to easily view what songs you might want to improve your rank on, in an off-game location.
This is still a beta-feature, so give the report some time to generate… we’re really giving the server a run for it’s money with this script, as it’s very server intensive. Let us know if you run into any problems.
More to come this July 
Stay tuned.
FFR Staff and Jelly Beans.
