Re: ATTN: synthlight

Another thought: Have judges-in-training or back-up judges.

I think a reason why this hasn't happened before was due to keeping consistent opinions - imagine if one judge reviewed half of the batch, then went on sick leave. The back-up judge would review the other half. Because of the subjective nature of judging, this doesn't sit well with the system you're proposing.
Even a system with rotating judges from one entire batch to another wouldn't do very well, since people do make revisions that spans multiple batches, and such simfile artists would like to have their files reviewed with a certain degree of consistency.

Re: ATTN: synthlight

I've probably said it before but a system like osu's judging would be great. basically, anyone can post a file they want to be added to the game. a horde of minions are hired to reject crap until it's improved (presumably constructive feedback provided at this stage) and raise anything with potential up to the judges for further refining.

Re: ATTN: synthlight

I think anyone who can play 12's and do well on them can be a judge.

Re: ATTN: synthlight

^ Aaahhahaha, no. Playing the game only provides you with better judgment on a small scale. It's better to start making your own files and see what's going on first. Also, you need to have a lot of time on your hands to be a judge - I don't have that anymore.

So essentially, have two layers of judges? Pre-screen the files with the first half of the judges, and then those that get past pre-screening get approval from the second half of judges? If so, I actually like that idea.

Re: ATTN: synthlight

It sounds like a great idea, and it is. But with everybody having an agenda of their own, it won't be so easy to get that many people to finish in a timely manner (and it's frankly hard to find several people with that sort of dedication anyhow). How many people do you think this system would require?

Re: ATTN: synthlight

I can't judge (because I'm not the best at it rofl)
But expect a ton of files from me soon.

He's already been banned at least once since ffr's revival.

Truth - you'd need to find a pretty strong team who would consistently deliver, and to get a thorough opinion, I would think you'd need no less than 6 people, 3 on pre-screening and 3 actually judging; one judge would be a technical judge, another would be one who goes off of fun factor, and another would be somewhere in the middle, for both screening/judging.

It's tough, either way.

Re: ATTN: synthlight

for pre-screening you don't need TOO many credentials - you just need to weed out stuff that is not on sync or really boringly stepped

Then get me on dat pre-screen :')

Oh patashu, where are you from? I was watching your wall of cans video, and using my detective work, I have deduced that you're not American.
