    Re: Devonin's Critical Thinking Tourney Two

    Will it be a range of how many steps in the song? Because the song I'm using is very close to but not 500 exactly. Meh, I'll wait for the round to actually start. =P

          What I mean is: The number of boos you need to generate will not be the same number as the number of steps in any song. I'm not saying I'm going to put some range requirement on it, like the song has to be X steps more or less than the number of boos.

          I mean instead of 500 boos, it will be some other number that doesn't map -exactly- onto any song's step count.

          And Tass: Mapping one input onto two outputs, no matter what they are, isn't something I support people doing.

          If A -> Up, Down

          Is invalid, why should a -> up, up be any different?

          Anyways, I'm just getting screenshots, go ahead and use whatever means you feel like to generate the score. How am I going to tell the difference anyway? If you want to violate the spirit of the rules because the letter says you can, why should changing the letter to reflect the spirit change anything either?

            Mapping two outputs per one input = cheating

                        Solved... now for the 500 Boos...

                          haha i think the 680 is wrong.

                          Also, guessing the 100 points is off.


                          edit done mental. took 20 seconds literally...

                              No, the 500 at the end is wrong, I changed it, as per my post in the thread earlier, from 500 because I didn't want it to be a value that was -precisely- the number of steps in a song, simply hitting everything twice made it too easy to accomplish. 680 is the number.

                              Also, I came back hours before the round was up, so obviously bonus points for people who were here on a late round don't apply.

                              And no, it dinging over to 12:01 before I pressed the submit button does not constitute a late-starting round.

                              Edit, wow, surprising:

                                Hmm, what if before the end of the tourney a song with exactly 680 steps is released? Hmm Tass IS the person who regulates the releases of songs...
