1st Season of the Official Ongoing League
Welcome ladies and gentlemen to the qualifying tournament for FFR’s first official ongoing League (now known as the OOL).
There is an awful lot to know about the OOL, so read the full rules in the official OOL rules thread.
If you want to participate, round 1 of qualifying has JUST started. Â See the Round 1 thread to join!
Prizes have not been finalized, but there will be credit prizes for the top finishers in the qualifying tournament.
Best of luck to all our competitors!
Let’s get this party started ya’ll!
Alright, you’ve been begging and pleading for us to get the show on the road, and we’ve listened! The 5th official FFR tournament starts NOW!
For all the juicy details you can head on over to the official thread, but for the main page just a few things:
1. NEW TOURNAMENT DASHBOARD!
This time around, we have a new feature thanks to the amazing lightdarkness (that’s me!) – The Dashboard. It will be the center for information during the course of the tournament. It will provide you with info such as what round we are in, when the round ends, the songs for each division, and even the scores for each player in each division, etc. You can see for yourself
2. NEW Score submissions
The biggest change to this tournament is the way scores will be submitted – you don’t have to do anything! When you play the song for your division, the score will automatically be recorded to the tournament stats, which you can view on the dashboard. That means NO MORE SCREENSHOTS! I repeat – You DO NOT need to take a screenshot to submit scores for this tournament. All scores are automatically submitted, and it will only keep the highest score which means you can play it as many times as you want and it will only keep the highest score. This makes life a LOT easier for everyone.
As I said earlier, more information can be found in the official thread, so check that out, then head on over to the dashboard to view your division, and see what song you have to play!
Good luck to all!

5th Official FFR Tourna..what?
Yup! You guessed it! It’s time again for the Official FFR tournament once again! You know, that time where keyboards get crushed, along with hearts, walls, heads.. and whatever else you crazy people do when you can’t AAA a song 
. Signups will start tonight at midnight, so be on the look out for the official post later on.
Just a little info beforehand..
Thanks to Mr.Mastermind LD, we’ve made some improvements on how the tournament is being run that will hopefully make your oh-so-difficult lives a bit easier. As prizes go, everyone will be filled in on them all of the other juicy details later in the official sign-up and tournament post – but just remember that this is the chance to grab your hands on the rare VRofl token if you finish in the top 8 within your division, so make sure you don’t forget to sign up!
Get ready!
Kanon x2
So everyone loved Canon in WHEE, which was part of our New User Purchased Song mini-event about 2 months ago. Everyone loved it so much, that we got a whole bunch of Canon in WHEE v2 submissions, as well as some other Canon in D remixes. Kanon-Kanon is another one of those remixes, at a whopping 230bpm, by t+pazolite. It is a solid 10 in difficulty. You can find it in Purchased, and it’s yours for 5000 credits. Props to bmah for the file.
In other, related news, a new subscriber song was released earlier today… {Big Boss} by cornandbeans, stepped by Vote4Nixon. An amazing song with awesome steps, you’re definitely going to want to subscribe just to listen to this song and play this file. AND… it’s not a purchased song! It’s back in funk for the next 3 weeks.

As many of you have seen before, concluding the 3rd Official FFR Tournament, I provided to you all the great joy and ecstasy of competition in my record smashing 1st Unofficial FFR Tournament, giving away a grand total of 2,800,000 credits to the winners of the event. But this time it’s different. The prizes are unbelievable! They make this THE event I’ve been hyping it up to be.

So please, I really wish you all to donate the greatest amount you can. Let’s break the current record and set the bar to new heights!
Secondly, let’s talk prizes. I am going to make this short and sweet as all of you are anxious to see them. So bare with me if they are not the greatest

4th Official Tournament – Round 3 Almost Over!
Apparently many of you are/were waiting for this news post about the tournament… well… we tend to stop making news posts around this time, because it has turned into a routine. Each round from now until the end will end at 11:59pm EST on Thursday and the new round will begin shortly thereafter (unless otherwise noted).
So, let this be your final front page story about this tournament… Round 3 ends in a little under 48 hours from now, and there will be no more news stories about it. Sprite- will continue to send out PM reminders for a few more rounds, but those will eventually stop as well. You MUST keep checking the FFR Events forum for the stickies on the new tournament rounds.

LD Thinks He Is Awesome… Is He?
So, I posted a subscriber news story last night (also found in my profile’s random thoughts) about how we are going to fix the challenge system so that you can no longer play files you don’t have access to by getting a challenge on them. Well, that has happened. So, now you won’t be able to play Vertex BETA vROFL unless you earn it. Or Otaku [Oni]. Or the big boy secret levels. Or any upcoming levels we have in store. These levels are meant to be rewards for an accomplishment, and they haven’t been to this point. Now they are again. If you want to play them, you’ll have to earn it.
You guys can thank (or curse) Lightdarkness for implementing this system. It is the reason he thinks he is awesome. I think he’s a pretty cool kid myself.
Finally… we have some new token ideas that we’ll be putting into place later this week, completely different than anything you’ve seen before. *insert gasps and looks of awe*.
Cheers,
-Tass & his slave coder, LD
