    Yeah, also, how do you sign in? (trying to figure out using Macromedia Flash Player... can't find any button for it) Or have you yet to implement it in the currently running version?

      How about adding the credit count (creds won / creds owned) to the results screen of the Velocity engine? I only just realized that was missing. You could replace "grade" with it (I mean really, nobody talks about AAs or whatever on FFR songs) or put it next to the avatar.

        I kinda sorta like having the song info popping up briefly (bottom right corner of screen) right when you start a song, especially since you won't see that info if you pick songs from a list. In Velocity's engine, you won't see the song info as the song begins.

          There's a reason why you didn't notice earlier

          I'd like to see that feature as well

            That's because I had changed the way it appears, but lags severely. So by default it's hidden, but it's in the settings. If enough people want it, I can return it to the way it's shown in legacy Engine.

              ah ok, I understand now. Would it cause lag if you made it an option to have it appear? (i.e. people who want it can choose to turn song info on)

              overall, no biggie unless some other people agree

I often miss opportunities.

                    My suggestion is: how about inputing an "alarm noise", a beep or something when a player enters the room? Sounds simple enough.

                        2 things:
                        1. Some way to play disabled songs. Maybe they could be ones where scores are not recorded or something. More songs = better right? They're already in the engine anyway.

                        2. Instead of judges judging files to be accepted, Veterans have access to all conditional files in a batch, then vote with credits which ones they want to have permanently. As files reach a credit threshold, they become added ingame. After a time limit, files that didn't make it get removed.

                          nope...this isn't Dragon's Fury

                          This sort of stuff has been discussed before last year.

                            Two things, one's a repeat since I never got an official response: Ability to blacklist songs. Page 37 and 38 for more detail.

                            and a new one: How about a button showing up on the final score screen that allows us to add the song we just played to our favorites? This would be a really nice feature to have, since otherwise we'd have to go find it (supposing you did it from a random song, this might be a tiny bit of a hassle)

                              A button in the score sheet that autosaves the screenshot to the ffr profile. That way tournaments would be much easier and noob friendly.

                                Wouldn't auto-saving images to the profile involve the game uploading the screenshot to the site? That would make for a lot of site space being used up.

                                On a similar note though, I wouldn't mind for a button on the results screen that takes a screenshot of the top part of the screen so that you can paste it to an image editing utility. It would allow for all screenshots to be a universal size (the dimensions of the engine), which could get rid of page stretching in score posting, etc.
