7th Official FFR Tournament

Re: 7th Official FFR Tournament

Welp, attempted for top 32, but just cant seem to nail the right score. Closest I got was 4-0-1-2, random miss in the solo. lol. Oh well, I tried. Not playing FFR seriously for awhile really killed my one handed trilling and overall performance.

Have you tried playing a pseudo-index in the beginning? Use an arrow key setup and see if you can beast that intro.

Alternatively, you can try my earlier idea and use your ring fingers for triples on an extremely close setup while using the index fingers on both of your hands to alternate back and forth from the leftmost to the rightmost keys, lol

Re: 7th Official FFR Tournament

SERIOUSLY, damn it. Someone below the line needs to trump him, ugh

I offered Razor a bounty to do it because he was whoring earlier, lol

Re: 7th Official FFR Tournament

Lag wouldn't subside, all week wasted trying to fight through it, giving up now

I'd gladly grind my song without the lag, but oh well. Till it lets up I guess the solution is no FFR for awhile =/

Did you try the R^2 engine?

Re: 7th Official FFR Tournament

Just curious... How many times do you guys play a tournament song before "giving up" (that is, if you don't AAA). I thought I had played each files way too many time and realized I had 19-20 plays. That doesn't seem like a lot.

Re: 7th Official FFR Tournament

The level ranks don't account for restarts. You have to completely drain your lifebar, finish the entire song, or get pulled out of the song via autofail. With that being said, some people's play counts might only show 15, but in reality they might have played it over 200 times. In my level ranks, Necropotence is a prime example of this -- I'm fairly certain I've had over 2,500 attempts trying to get that AAA for my stats or for a tournament.

Mhm

I tried Legacy, Velo, R^2, and all the test Velo engine links that Velo posted in this thread.

Flash 8, 9, 10, 11, in-browser (With IE and Firefox).

And every possible combination with all of the these^. I unfortunately still get lag in some form or another.

Nothing else to try, but oh well, next year I guess ^_^;;

Pretty much. My level ranks says I've played Press Start 6 times, but it's probably closer to 250. Same thing with A FLOWER GARDEN. That says 8 when it's really 300+.

Re: 7th Official FFR Tournament

It took me 725 attempts to BF D6's file!!

Re: 7th Official FFR Tournament

Oh, right. I usually play the full song though I probably have less than twice that. I like to play the whole song, especially when I get most of my goods near the end. Would be nice if you could practice only certain parts, when I think about it.

2500 attempts though? I think I really am not trying hard enough ha ha. I guess I've always kinda lacked determination at FFR. I take such long break that I make no progress at all. I still can't beat most of the scores I made back in 2008!

Haven't AAA'd any songs in the tournament as of yet... I think I'm not trying hard enough! Or just not playing enough!

edit: man, you guys try the same songs so many times, ha ha. I've always been used to play random songs all the time and never play the same file several times in a row. Thought I just sucked at AAAs but I guess I was just impatient!

For some reason on Flash 11, I have to restart an annoyingly frustrating amount of times before I get a playthrough with no lag.

This also indecently makes me look really bad, having 50+ restarts before I nail a good score xD

I need a miracle!

What happened to you is 100% poop e_e You improved your score, therefore making you go back under the elimination line. gah. seriously try the isolation link I sent you! I believe in you. :')

Wilson you are crazy <3 I'm really sad you didn't join the tournament you would have done so well.

It took me 76 tries to 2-0-0-0 Press Start I have experienced 0 lag on R^2 in the past 3 weeks using it.. not sure why other people are lagging, =[. I'm on a pretty crappy 10 year old desktop with 256 mb ram.. lol

Re: 7th Official FFR Tournament

I'm thinking of streaming video when the beginning of the round starts. Would anyone be interested in watching?
