Word Scramble – New Profile Feature!

Posted in FFR Profiles on January 2nd, 200839 Comments »

If you’ve seen some funny-looking letter combinations in your profile, it’s not because we’re horrible spellers, but rather, FFR profiles now feature Scramble, a simple, yet addictive game that requires players to decipher strings of letters into a word which matches the given clue.

Currently, 450 words and phrases are Scramble ready, ranging from easy to insane in difficulty, with more and more being added in every single day, so keep watch for updates to raise your score. Currently, Scramble keeps record of your personal lifetime score as well as a top 10 ranking located in the Scramble window, so rack your brain and shoot for the top 10!

Subscribers have had access to the game for about a week now and if anyone is having trouble loading the game now, some updates were made, so try clearing your cache and refreshing the page.

Above all, please have fun with the addition and if you experience problems or have suggestions for the game, let us know in the FFR suggestions forum.

From everyone at FlashFlashRevolution.com

Nestle Claus Christmas Credit Giveaway

Posted in Spontaneous Contests on December 25th, 200763 Comments »

Credit Giveaway

Here are the winners (of course chosen via random.org)!!! But, first, a word from our sponsors:

While the giveaway originally stemmed from 50,000 credits from Nestle Claus, the following members have selflessly donated to the contest – .dot, Clipso, Sullyman2007, Roy Campbell and CornontheCod. While I originally said there were 250,000 credits total in the pot, I guess I lied. Since the original promise was five winners at 10,000 credits, I’d hate to give away prizes of 5,000. Thus, I have added 5,000 credits to each prize, meaning the five grand prize winners will net 35,000 credits each, second-tier winners will take 20,000 each and the third-tier winners will earn the promised 10,000 credits each. Without further ado:

Grand prize winners (35,000 credits each):
Speedking7, fullmetal_alchemist027, RB_Mapleleaf2102, coolade123 and Xandertrax

Second-tier winners (20,000 credits each):
SuperSonicX, EvilNerd07, mellonxcollie, phe0nixblade and musicluver1991

Third-tier winners (10,000 credits each):
arrekusuof93, thechild, Syhto, EnR and atalkingcow

*I have transferred all credits to the announced winners and have verified they were delivered in the credit log.  Enjoy your credits/secret songs/running tournaments/whatever!* 

Congratulations to all the winners and thank you to everyone who entered – I honestly didn’t expect so many entries. If you didn’t win this time, sorry, but keep checking back for more possible contests and events as 2007 comes to a close right here on FFR.

-Nestle Claus

Christmas is Upon Us! Come Unwrap Your Songs!

You’ve been patient up until today, but the final day of FFRMas is now upon us and two brand new Christmas songs are available for play in the Misc. genre:

The Mannheim Steamroller rendition of Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow is no longer widget-exclusive, making a difficulty level 3 debut to the public with a [Heavy] stepfile created by ElectricWerewolf. Fresh off the Flash presses is the humorous song A Christmas Carol by Tom Lehrer, which features a vocal-timed difficulty level 5 stepfile by Talisman.

While everyone is in the holiday spirit, don’t forget about last year’s addition of Carol Megamix by Hiro (9 by Rebirth0), which you can also find located in the Misc. genre.

To conclude the 12 Days of FFRMas, an additional three non-holiday oriented songs, located at the bottom of the Hip-Hop genre, round out the event:

First, Sabrepulse’s Horizon Remix features three minutes of tricky patterns including trills, yellow note streams and air step alternations in a level 8 stepfile by rshadow8888. Shind Bad hangs another DJ Sharpnel song onto the FFR tree with a difficulty 9 stepfile by Rebirth0 that throws out plenty of high speed yellow note streams and quickfire air steps. Another artist making a return in FFR with a difficulty 9 rating is Smiley feat. KaW in Euphoria where eastsideman09′s stepfile flows with the busy, yet cheerful, melody.

So there you have it, another five songs to add even more cheer to your holidays. We hope you have enjoyed the second-annual 12 Days of FFRMas and we look forward to seeing our users as we now look ahead to the year 2008.

FFRMas Eve Yields Early Presents

On the 11th day of FFRMas, Flash Flash Revolution gave to you:

The easiest of tonight’s files introduces Cid’s Theme Piano Concerto by XBrav, bringing in a short difficulty 2 stepfile by vemuck that is stocking-stuffed full of air steps. Difficulty level 7 does double-duty tonight, first with The Final Fantasy by B0UNC3, a constant file by Kalazor that presents tricky patterns of yellow note streams accented by air steps. Tonight’s second level 7 is Black Noise –_– by Zenon, which thanks to stepfile artist Scytlock, should serve as any yellow-note stream fanatic’s dream. Finally, tonight’s hardest stepfile comes in the form of cornandbean’s {I Don’t Need You Anymore}, a level 10, 5:05 long marathon featuring tricky streams courtesy of dore. You should know the drill by now, but all four songs are located at the bottom pages of the hip-hop genre.

On the eve of Christmas, only one more day is left in the 12 Days of FFRMas. What awaits you on the final day? Come back tomorrow and see what lies underneath the FFRMas tree.

FFRMas Day 10: Four More Songs

Sorry for delay, but I have just received word that the files for Day 10 of the 12 Days of FFRMas are now live, making four more Flash Flash Revolution songs available in the hip-hop genre – scroll down three pages and you’ll see them listed as the last songs:

First up, providing a mellow 2 difficulty, Nina Goddess of Dance brings more Euro house to FFR with the addition of Don’t You Want Me, a stepfile by MixMasterLar that flows with the airy vocals and bassline. Bumping up the difficulty, Progression by Draigun enters in with a difficulty level 9 stepfile by Silvuh that continually flows with triplets and is accented with tricky parts all through the song. The next two additions turn the difficulty dial up to 10 – Neonatrias provides a quickfire stepfile with the intense Ascii Art Core by Yamajet that will have you seeing plenty of yellow. Shanghai Girl of Meiji 17 by dBu is a little more laid back with a file by behanjc, which follows the song’s orchestral feel, but unlike the fast-paced 1:24 runtime of Ascii Art Core, this level 10 file runs just short of four minutes.

Of course, being that it is now day 11 in the event, you should expect to see another update later today with even more FFR song additions.
