8th Official FFR Tournament - Final Round!

EDIT: Ninja'd

How it works is that in the event that the next round is a prize round, which it indeed is! Then players that have tied right at the elimination line will play a tie breaker song, as well as the next round song.

Tiebreakers are given on the same day the new round starts. Assuming it's how it's been done before, the players in the tiebreaker have one day to submit a score. The person with the highest score on the tiebreaker stays above the elimination line while the person below will be eliminated, regardless on what score they get in the next round.

We might not be issuing a different file for tiebreakers because we were very limited on files. What's likely going to happen is those involved in the tie will play the next round's song and whoever has the best score at the end of 24 hours will stay in. I think this actually works out for the better because it doesn't detract attention away from them playing their actual round song. But I'm still looking into potential tiebreakers and things right now so there's no definite yet.

Salitz, i know that was essentially directed at me

Basically what I'm saying is that people who DID wait deliberately to get their scores are the ones who i say "too bad so sad" to. Halogen and I mentioned it earlier that it was a risky tactic, and basically, this is the price you pay for waiting.

on the other hand, if you tried your hardest and lag/site issues kept you down (more the former than the latter would be a more acceptable excuse) then that's just unfortunate, and I'm sorry.

It was actually directed at multiple people (you included :P)

Alright, I suppose that's more understandable... but I still have to disagree with you. It's a legitimate tactic (annoying as it may be), and just because they chose to wait and got screwed over doesn't make it justified. Problems with the site should never be a factor in the outcome of a tourney.

Totally not what I was trying to do btw. I've just been so frustrated dealing with this shit all week, it's starting to wear on me. Looking at the dashboard now, I probably wouldn't have made it anyway XD

Anyways, I'm out. Pretty satisfied with making it this far in D5... could have done without the rage of this round though. Good luck to you and the rest of D5.

Well I'll say that I'm in before a last hour attack into top 8 for D4.

So do you guys know what's happening to the servers yet?

Re: 8th Official FFR Tournament - Round 5!

The only thing that I know for sure is that synth is working on it. If it keeps up for a bit in the next round we might have to postpone this tournament. I would just host the files up on the DF engine but people use R^2 and R^3 which we don't have.

Re: 8th Official FFR Tournament - Round 5!

Alright, there's no way I can have a 24 hour tiebreaker with the way the site is running nor really just have this tournament in general. I'm going to go ahead and postpone it as much as I don't want to. The issue will hopefully be resolved sometime tomorrow and as soon as it is we'll resume the tournament. Sorry guys.

Thanks for the update and for postponing it.

Hopefully it's resolved quickly and I can finally get a day of FFR practice in rather than SM.

Best of luck with the issue.

In the meantime, super hype for next round guaiz?

That's the best call. Best of luck getting this thing solved!
