10th Official FFR Tournament

Re: 10th Official FFR Tournament

Anyway, placement issues should be brought to PMs, but it would be best to wait until later when we have the time to finish up going through the people that have no decision at all and re-run everyone.

Edit: For that UF you can go into D6 and we can just not discuss it at all

Yeah but I'm one of those people when it comes to D2.

Re: 10th Official FFR Tournament

Im personally split as well, I had a few freakish weeks which easily pushed me into d6 territory, though I've now not played seriously in about a month and a half. Given the way things typically do, and should work D6 is likely appropriate for me, however I can prett confidently say Im so inconsistent that I could be mid d5 one day and mid d6 another day. Sorry for my complex case and please do consider my replays.

here is a pretty important run on a song I got where I forgot to save the replay(

), this was back at august 22nd? That was probably the last time I was able to go so ham and haven't touched that skill level since. GL

That doesn't make you D1. You're scoring on things that a D1 player can't. I'm not going to continue on here. You can PM AJ about it. He's the final say in everything for the official. I'm just trying to relay what I can since he's working.

You're not the only complex one. I think we have something like 65 people with split divisions on them.

Really no matter what the division system sucks. It's impossible to get everyone into a spot where they fit in. Like in my case I can't stand that I'm D5 because I can't score on high FMOs nor any FGO. Hell I don't even do well at a lot of the low or mid ones either. But because I had a select few that I'm good at, I'm stuck D5 and can't even argue it. Like there's someone D4 that has a messy 30 good score FC on Reality, but has nothing in the FMO range that merits D5, nor anything else in the FGO range. But I can't even FC Reality without mashing some lol.

I was actually just telling the events team that I wanted to try to revamp placement guidelines though. There are some divisions that have wider gaps than others and I really think it can be evened out a little bit more. Especially now with more and more people hitting D7. This would be something that had to happen after this official though. It's going to take a lot of time to try to come up with a good system.

Re: 10th Official FFR Tournament

Yeah, since placements (well, last night to be exact) I did get a few more AAAs. Fire (only a 45, but still) and also Case Closed [54] is my new best. I'm just glad this doesn't put into D4 by any means. I'm gonna die in D3 anyways. There are people with 1200+ FCs and 10+ Tier points... Phew... RIP

You can't just look at number of FCs, if they're mashing the FCs it really doesn't help them for the official tournament since everything is raw scoring for it now. Same goes for TPs really, it all depends on what they got it for.

Indeed, that is true. They don't particularly have AAA ability, from their stat bars, but like Puppy said, until I see them play it is a wee bit intimidating lol This being my first OT and all. Top 16 is my goal, Top 8 is a myth. ha

Re: 10th Official FFR Tournament

Am I the only one that gets genuinely agitated when people complain about their placements?

If it were me, and I got put in a division higher than I thought I was, I'd be excited. "People think I'm that good? Wow!"

Stop trying to win at a lower division and try to get better.

Glaciate is a joke, I don't even understand what happened. I'm going to talk privately.

I too, get extremely irritated with it. I know dem feels! lol

Re: 10th Official FFR Tournament

We do make mistakes in placements sometimes so I'm not always annoyed by it. We're humans, things get missed sometimes, misclicks happen, whatever.

But it is annoying when we've already explained to someone over and over again about why they are where they are and they want to continue on with it.

Re: 10th Official FFR Tournament

I can vouch for the fact that you're not one of the people he's referring to, being that you actually requested to be a division higher.
