    This is the timeline I remember.

    1. Party 4u is released for purchase in the shop. Many rejoice.
    2. Some people complain that they cannot play the song properly due to their keyboards not registering triples, or three arrows pressed at once.
    3. Party 4u is replaced with an updated stepfile, v2. This does not have any triples. The change takes place even to those who purchased the original, and no one has access to the original file in-game anymore.
    4. Skip to present day. There are a number of files high in difficulty that use triples, despite the pledge not to use them after the Party 4u incident.

    I am asking for the original v1 to be released again now that triples are acceptable. There is no reason not to release it now that triple are common.
    What was preventing people from sliding to hit triples again?

        It extended beyond that. I read the announcement that was posted when this was released it, and IIRC, the exact reason they removed it was because of the hands/quads, but for a different reason mentioned here: it was because indexers couldn't hit those patterns with only two fingers (at the time the file was released, the only two styles anybody really played were index and one handed).


        However, a lot of people's keyboards, such as my own, can't take input from those anyways. I personally disagree with them being added now, although I can understand people wanting the extra challenge after the avmiss fix.

            I don't think a lot of people thought about that. Then again, I wasn't around during that era.

                It would be cool to see this as a token, even if it's awful. If not, though, how about putting it up as a widget song? Maybe there could be some kind of 'historic songs' widget with a couple of songs that used to be on FFR but aren't anymore. Like P4uv1 and that 3086-note version of ==Planet KARMA==. I dunno, just an idea...

                    Nah, just forget about the whole operation. Its not worth it.

                    If its crap, then no one wants to play it. Right?

                        Making it a purchased song would be nice, but then it would affect rank.

                        Why not just make it a regular token, the kind you have to hunt around for to unlock, with the clue post explaining the history behind the file.

                        And I know we still have the file, we still have the Captain Jack steps.

                            No, since it's a Party 4u song, you can't make it an achievement token. Make it a difficult skill token that involves playing both V2 and V3 of Party 4u. Perhaps BF/AAA both songs in a row or something? Something like the Sonata skill token but with stricter requirements.

                                Not TOO hard if the file isn't the best. And I didn't mean achievement token, I meant token token. As in find this link token.

                                    Better yet, make it a really cheap support token. Like, $1 or so. Or a special bonus added to subbie accounts.

                                        It isn't even on the server anymore or i'd make a video of it. I am pretty sure like most files that old, it sucks.

                                            I don't really care. We kept all the other old files, and it would be a fun memory to relive.
