2 New Token Songs Released
So one of the most frequently asked questions concerning token is: “Can we have tokens that are related to Credits?”. The answer is yes. Today we present you with 2 new token songs to enjoy. If you can find them. They should be fairly easily figure out this time.
Don’t forget, it’s against the rules to post hints or their location on FFR itself. Failure to follow these rules results in a ban and all that other fun stuff.
Happy Hunting.
Cheers,

Site Code Updates
You may notice a few oddities here and there tonight as we update some core components of the site. It shouldn’t be anything you notice but thought we would mention them just in case.
And now to make this news post a little more interesting… In the next 48 hours we will be adding atleast 2 more tokens to the site.
Cheers,

SOTW #2: Science Genius Girl (lameboy mix)
Song of the Week #2 for this week was released last night, Science Genius Girl (lameboy mix). Song is by Freezepop, and steps are by hi19hi19. The song is not that fast (138 BPM (Beats Per Minute)), but long trills at the middle of the song are fairly hard, so we set it at high-3.5 on the difficulty scale.
You can find this song in the upper left corner of Misc section.
Let’s enjoy.

SOTW List .. Yes, We Fell Behind Posting But They Are All In
We’ve been falling behind lately in the announcements on the Songs of the Week. Sorry about that, but this will get it all caught up.
Added last Friday (February 2, 2007) was Destiny, our first collaboration simfile. What’s a collaboration simfile? It’s just one simfile, with one set of steps, done by two people. This simfile was done by Rebirth0, AND i love you. Song is by Smiley, and can be found in the first page of Dance2. It’s a fairly easy simfile but it has a couple difficult parts, which is why this simfile is a 4 on the difficulty scale.
—————————————————————
Added last Sunday (February 4, 2007) was World of Dreams. Song by DJ Karbon, steps by hi19hi19. There are hundreds of jumps in this simfile, but that doesn’t mean it’s hard, or not fun. It is fun to play, and it’s only a 3.5 on the 6-point difficulty scale. It can be found in the third page of Dance.
—————————————————————
And now for today. Our SOTW#1 for this week is {Frozen}. A nice addition to the collection of cornandbeans simfiles we have in the game. Bahamut-X did the steps to this song, and they’re not as easy as you would expect. This simfile has quite a lot of 16th streams and 16th jumpstream, which is why we rate it a 5 on the difficulty scale. Right now it can be found in the first page of Dance2, but it will soon be moved to the second or third page.
Have fun,

2nd Token Song Released
So you have already found the first token on the site? Ready for the next one? Of course you aren’t! 
The next token song is available if you can find out how to unlock it. As always, I cannot give you any details on how to unlock it. And remember, no giving away clues on FFR. If you are found giving away clues or the answer it will result in a ban.
Good luck finding it as there are only a small handful of people that have unlocked it so far.
MUAHAHA!
Here is the only hint you are going to get from me. www.flashflashrevolution.com/moc

Second Spinfile of the Week and the iPatcH Spinfile Contest
Freezepop – Get Ready 2 Rokk [Guitar Hero Version] (Difficulty: 7)
Spinfile Author: DarkChao56
Freezepop is an indie synthpop/New Wave band composed of Liz Enthusiasm, the Duke of Pannekoeken (originally the Duke of Candied Apples, both pseudonyms of Kasson Crooker), and the Other Sean T. Drinkwater (who claims to be a clone of the “original” Sean T. Drinkwater). They formed in Boston, Massachusetts in 1999.
They have gained a number of fans through their work in video games, and several of their songs can be found on titles such as FreQuency, Amplitude, Karaoke Revolution, Guitar Hero, Guitar Hero 2, and Downhill Domination, along with one of the North American entries in the Dance Dance Revolution series. Many of these games were developed by Harmonix, a company for which Kasson Crooker is the Audio Director.
We can’t do this without all of your help, so we’ve made a little… “incentive” to get people into making spinfiles… a prize! That’s right!
Spinfiles are made just like Stepfiles, except no jumps.
The layout for which arrows go to which corner look like this. (click here to see association)
You have until Saturday, the 10th of February to make a spinfile and submit it at spinfiles(insertatsymbolhere)gmail.com. iPatcH will then review those submissions for the following week, and pick a winner! What’s the prize? A two-month payment to be an FFR Suscriber personally paid by iPatcH. This gives you early testings of future SotW’s for FFR, and more!
SO GET THOSE SONGS SPINNIN’!
iPatcH + SpinitUP Support
Ohhh Yeaahhh! Announcing Spinfile of the week!
SIU is now under new management! With the help of iPatcH, he will be reviewing user submitted spinfiles. With that in mind, starting today and every Wednesday, new spinfiles will be added to our lovely game we call SpinItUP! This week we will release two. One today and one tomorrow from DarkChao56. The first spinfile will be:
Ugress – Manhattan Sapphire (Difficulty: 6)
Spinfile Author: iPatcH
Ugress is an electronica project from Bergen, Norway. The man behind this project is Gisle Martens Meyer.
Ugress’s music can be related to other artists as Crystal Method, Chemical Brothers and Propellerheads. Some similarity to Röyksopp have been suggested, but Ugress is described as having a more “dirty” style. Ugress is also known for using lots of sample snippets from various artists and TV shows. Often Ugress is mistaken for being the name and only project of Gisle Martens Meyer but Ugress is actually one of several projects by Uncanny Records. Each project spawns its own music style but nevertheless you can recognize the “vibe” which goes through most of the available music.
