Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

That's pretty much what a lot of people have already done. As long as the sm chart was released already and you change a few things, it can be submitted to ffr

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

@ Tass or any of the other judges: What is (are) your stance(s) on converting your own SM files to FFR? I know you don't want to compare SM files to FFR files, but I know you don't want FFR files later being released for SM and was wondering if you cared if I went the other way. I have one or two files I just want to take the holds out of, repattern a bit to accommodate that, and send in.

FREEDOM DIVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Hi19 already stepped it for FFR

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

Don't worry I have another super secret SM file that I was planning on converting. Also, I'm pretty sure hi19 didn't send his freedom dive into this batch, so I'm still good as far as I'm concerned for Freedom Dive =O

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

Basically existing SM files don't affect my judgement that much.

If the file is identical with some SM file it's not a good thing though.

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

My Chocolate Rain file is *interesting* but I wouldn't mind it getting beaten out by someone else's superior file.

HOWEVER.

If my Freedom Dive file gets rejected and the one that gets in is not ****ING AMAZING I'll be really pissed. I worked a long time on it ^___^

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

Even if a simfile gets queue'd it can be replaced by a superior file, iirc.

I'm sure there are circumstances though.

knoobish's freedom dive is the best 220 bpm jstream file i've played in the History Of My Stepmania Career





since i've never played any 220 bpm jstream files

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

Lol mine definitely isn't superior. Lots of 193 bpm 32nd trills. Prolly too much for FFR : /

Oh well. Ignore it in the next batch, plz.



EDIT: A bit delayed, but if anyone wants to step a jack/trill file, just step this.

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

Momentary life is finished, I'm pretty happy with it. It's not as interesting as HO rhythm wise but it's a solid 11 and pretty fun IMO.

also trisection v2 is a dump and I'm probably scrapping it XD

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

blu: yes... we can and have replaced queue'd files with better ones... but it's rare. we give precedence to an already queue'd file over a newly submitted one... so even if the new one is marginally better, we won't change it. it has to be much better. IIRC, only 1 (maybe 2) files have ever been replaced post-queueing.

the reasoning for this is so the best stepfile guys don't snipe files that are approved by other stepfilers. aka... eastsideman steps some amazing SSH file and we approve it. then Shash sees it and is like... "oh man, i bet that file could be AMAZING if i did it... better than esm!" so Shash goes and steps it... it has to be MUCH better for us to replace it. we don't want that scenario to happen.

I just really wish that Gorgoroth weren't so suppressive to lyrics and tabulature that they would kill someone for putting music on here.

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

lol, I wouldn't bother trying to re-step something someone else did unless it was so bad that it wasn't queue worthy, and I've already pretty much grabbed all my current SSH favorites anyway XD

But yeah, replacing a queue file is a pain in the ass and isn't ever gonna happen unless the new file completely blows away the old one...such was my experience as a judge
