    *Midnight is a paid song. This means you will have to purchase it from the FFR Credit Shop. To get there, simply hover over the Home header on the front page. Go down to "Credit Shop", and click. From here, simply find Midnight and click "Buy". After that, you'll be able to play the song!
    Don't have the credits? Don't worry! I will be sending each player in D1 the 300 credits necessary to purchase the song. These credits are not part of the prize pool credits, and as such, will not affect any credits won in the tournament.

    Hey there! Get eliminated from the 13th Official before your time? Feel like you could have done better and want another shot? Well, good news!

    Info/Signups
    Welcome to the Monstercat Tournament, an unofficial tournament for Divisions 1-5 (more on this later). This will be a cumulative tournament using raw scoring, and will consist of six rounds, each lasting for one week long. If that sounds interesting to you, feel free to post in the thread that you want to join! (Note: I will only be accepting accounts that are at least a month old in an effort to avoid sandbagging.) Signups will be open through the end of Round 1, which will begin on August 25th, 11:00pm server time.

    Divisions
    Now, as I mentioned before, this tournament is only going to be for D1-D5 (apologies to the higher divisions). This is for a few different reasons. First of all, this tournament will be mainly using files of songs that were released through Monstercat, or songs by artists who have released music through Monstercat in the past. Because of this, the number of available files for me to choose from was rather limited. To my knowledge, there are actually no Monstercat files in the game that are within the D6-D8 range, so it would be kind of impossible to run those divisions under the circumstances. In addition, with this being my first attempt at running a tournament, I want to focus on running only a few divisions this time around to get my feet under me. And finally, my current skill level in the game is only that of a high D2. It's pretty difficult for me to choose an appropriate line-up of higher difficulty songs, and I'd rather not upset a bunch of higher level players with my poor file selection. >.<

    With that said, divisions will be determined by players' placement in the FFR leaderboards, and will be subject to change based on levelranks, replays, etc.

    Ghosting
    I will be accepting ghosting requests for this tournament, but only for one division per player. Ghosting alone will not make you eligible for participation prizes, though you are welcome to only ghost if you desire.

    Submissions
    As far as submissions are concerned, I'll only be accepting screenshots posted in the thread, preferably of the end screen after you've finished the song, with your username and the timestamp clearly visible. Any other kinds of screenshots may be accepted or denied based on my judgement. With that said, feel free to update your score as many times as you like within the given round!

    Prizes
    This tournament will start with a prize pool of 200,000 credits, provided by myself. However, if you wish to donate to the prize pool, go right ahead! I'll be sure to divvy up the credits between 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place in each division when the tournament is over, as well as hand out participation credits for those of you who submit positive, non-zero scores for all six rounds.

    Late Scores
    I will not be accepting late scores in this tournament. If you fail to submit a score within the time period of the round, you will get a 0 for that round, and will also no longer be eligible for participation credits.

    Questions/Concerns
    If anyone has any other questions or concerns about the tournament, please feel free to post in the thread or send me a PM! As I mentioned before, this will be my first time running something like this, so thanks in advance for being patient and understanding with me.

    Total Prize Pool: 1,865,000 credits

        I would certainly like to participate... cool if I’m still in the OT for D2?

            Re: Monstercat Tournament

            Really cool concept for a tournament!


            You are correct that there's not enough Monstercat songs in game to support D6 and up, plus I think it's a great idea for your first tournament to get your feet wet with divisions you are more familiar with.
            I hope you get lots of signups and have a great time, good luck man!

                    Re: Monstercat Tournament

                    I still have a connection with monstercat (when i first made connections with them giving perms for ffr)

                    I wonder if they can sponsor this... might need at least 50 signups tho for irl merch rewards...

                            Sorry for the late responses here, work ran pretty long today and I forgot to charge my phone before I left the house. In any case, I'm gonna channel my inner benguin and do a multi-quote response. :P

                            Yeah, I would have loved to include everyone, but we just don't have the files for it. Sorry. ^^;

                            Yeah! You can definitely join, still being in the OT isn't a disqualifier.

                            That would honestly be amazing if you could manage that! Let me know if you hear anything back.
