4th Official FFR Tournament – SIGN UP NOW!!!
So, it’s that time again… time again for another official tournament. If you want to sign up, go here and click the sign up button. It’s that simple (note: you must have at least 100 games played to participate). If you have any questions or you want to start the smack talk… do it in the official thread! Now, to tell you a bit about this tournament:
There will be FIVE divisions, instead of 4. We hope this will help to thin the divisions out a bit, allow more users to have a chance to place and be competitive, and most importantly… cut down on the complaining! Just like the previous ones, you do not get to pick which division you will be competing in. Our Official FFR Tournament Co-Ordinator, Sprite, will have first and final say.

Oh yea we did.. a new FFR Token Challenge.
Check out my new level! It has all you need.
Remember, sometimes searching for the answer is only half the battle — you need to do a little unpacking to get to the real answer within.
What? A Token You Say? Where?!?
Well, I can’t tell you yet. Check back for…
EDIT: Also, Skill Token #48 has been updated to reflect the difficulty changes from the avmiss fix. There are now 15 FMO songs that will unlock Otaku Speedvibe [Oni]: Novo Mundo, Lawn Wake 4, Lawn Wake 1, None Would Escape, Divine Suicide of K, Melonman’s OP, K8107, Southern Cross, Choprite, Midnight Dragon, Silence, Rottel-da-Station, Epidermis, AIM Anthem, and Hajnal. These are the current 15 songs that are difficulty 76-78 on our 99 point scale. We will be updating the Otaku [Heavy] ST as well down the road.
3 New Songs!
Death Piano is now available in Hip-Hop. It’s the hardest public file in the game. I got over 300 misses on it my 1st run through. And that was with the avmiss fix. Song is by crazy Japanese dude Xi. Stepfile is by stargroup100. Enjoy… you all asked for hard.
M.A.M.A. is a fairly typical song by DJ Sharpnel. The stepfile, on the other hand, is a bit unique in that it lacks something fairly important. You’ll figure it out. Chart is by the one and only Corn King himself, hi19hi19. Song is located in the upper left hand corner of Dance2, page 1.
Finally, we just couldn’t wait any longer! We had to give all of you the wonderful music of Gunther. I’m sure you all are already familiar with the Ding Dong Song, but Gunther was so awesome… he recorded a special version just for FFR! Check it out in the upper left hand corner of Dance, page 1. Stepfile is by yours truly, Tasselfoot.

Game Recording & Playback
Last night I hinted at a new major feature that will be hitting FFR. We are still putting the final touches on the feature but I figured you guys deserved to know what we are up to.
As the title says, you will be able to record your games and play them back. As a matter of fact, you will be able to let anyone view a level you just played by simply linking them to it or letting them click on it within your profile.
How many games will you be able to record and save? Right now we are planning on unlimited. You won’t need to download anything or configure something special. You will simply be able to save your game after you are done and everything is stored in the database automatically.
We have to make absolutely sure that this feature works before we release it. So we are looking at 1 day.. maybe 2.. maybe 3 at most until we are able to wrap it up. It all depends on how the bug hunting goes between Xelius, myself and the rest of team (including subscribers).
Cheers,

Double the Spin, Double the Fun
To kick off the month, Spin It Up fans should be pleased to know, two new files have been added to the game and levels will once again be added to the game on a regular basis.
Starting today, both {Big Bad Scary Fish-Man} and Bomb the Base are available for play in Spin It Up. If the brackets weren’t enough to clue you in {Big Bad Scary Fish-Man} comes at you courtesy of fan-favorite artist cornandbeans. The dizzying file was designed for us by jugglinguy and can be found in the level 6 difficulties. If a level 6 is too spinny for you, mellow down the difficulty just a little bit with Bomb the Base by Paradise Decay feat. Nina Goddess of Dance. The level 2 file was created by myself in order to test the waters of adding levels to Spin It Up and features mostly straight forward beats with only a few semi-tricky spins. With both files being newly added, you can easily find both songs by going to their respective difficulty sections and clicking the up arrow once.
I have a good handful of spinfiles in waiting to be entered into the game, so with patience, we’ll be catching up on the Spin It Up backlog in no time flat with additions coming at you as soon as early next week. To talk about Spin It Up and find out how to contribute to the game levels, visit the Spin It Up section of our forums. Right now, I am considering Saturdays to be the day of the week I regularly add spinfiles to the game, but that is still in consideration – but know that the game will be receiving the proper update treatment and you’ll be hearing the name Spin It Up a lot more down the road.
Contest Winner + New Token!
How can I deny someone who is so dedicated.. So selfless.. So.. Sorry dude, that is just downright disgusting. I can’t say anything positive about your experience besides the fact that you have just won a 1 year subscription or t-shirt of your choice. You may also opt to give the subscription to someone else on the site if you wish. Wow.. I don’t think I could have done what you did.
Who am I talking about? darklordsarumon9 of course. Just check out this pic.
Thanks to everyone for their entries. That was a nice & disturbing entry back into the realm of spontaneous contests (those with weak stomachs, please refrain from viewing contest thread)..
IN OTHER NEWS!! (news beeping sound and typewriters goes here)
We have released a hidden token.. You may be able to find this token on this site at some point. Me as a person would not classify it as trivial either.. period.
Good luck! Remember, no user clues or giving away it’s location anywhere on FFR.
Cheers,
Synthlight
