    gnr61's FFR Invitational

    Been planning this for some time now, and I thought I'd start this before the Official Tournament took over everything. So here it is:

    GNR61's FFR Invitational Event
    Welcome to the gnr's invitation-only FFR Master's tournament. I will be sending out PM invitations to those on a list of select, highly skilled players of this game to participate in this tournament. By making this a masters-only tournament, I won't have to worry about lower divisions, wide prize-payout distributions, or qualifying based on level stats. Those invited are determined at my discretion, based on my knowledge of the players' skill level. Note that those invited will be those whom I know are still at least somewhat active (or may come out of inactivity) AND who have reached a certain level of accomplishment FFR. This is not based on Tier Points or Level Ranks, but rather moreso on individual scores.

    Current Standings

    How it's goin' down
    Scoring for this tournament will be based off of PRE-TOTAL score, meaning the score you receive before combo factors in. As you know this takes into account the weight of misses on your score without rendering it void because you lost your combo. To post a score, simply post a screenshot in this thread and I will record it. I know all of you, and most of your scores, so of course I will know if you try to post an old score or cheat in some way...I don't expect any kind of problems with that, but if it happens for some reason, you will of course be disqualified.

    The number of rounds and eliminations per round will vary depending on the number of participants that respond, but I'll be aiming for 5 or 6 rounds of about 3 days in length. This is all subject to change based on popular demand or scheduling issues on my part.

    I'm aiming to start Round 1 by the end of next week, but I will of course wait until I've heard from almost everyone.

    Song difficulty for this tournament will go like this (based on 6 rounds):

    Low For Masters Only
    High For Masters Only
    High For Masters Only
    Low For Gurus Only
    Mid For Gurus Only
    High For Gurus Only (hmmmmmm lol)

    The difficulty of the songs, although I mostly agree with the difficulty listings thread, will be determined by MYSELF based on difficulty of getting a PRE-TOTAL score for the song. This may affect, for example, something like Crowdpleaser which is difficult to combo, but not to PA.

    So post in this thread if you're up for it, and I'll blue your name on the list.

    And guys, the original plan was to sell spots to the public in return for donations but apparently that's against the rules =_=;
    But if you still feel like you should have been invited, please do let me know.

    Current Prize Pot:
    gnr61: 50,000
    Loot: 127,000
    total: 177,000

    1st: pending
    2nd: pending
    3rd: pending
    lol math

    ROUND 2 HAS BEGUN
    This Round:
    Play Piano Etude [Gymnastics] AND Piano Etude [Demon Fire]


    Round 2 will end Wednesday May 34th at 8:00 PM EST
    Post screenshots for BOTH songs and your pre-total scores will be added up to make your final score. Not all rounds will have 2 songs, but may have other additions to keep the flow of eliminations.

    Re: gnr61's FFR Invitational

    This was run by me.... and my feeling on the subject is that IN RARITY, a tournament that is not open to everyone is acceptable. If all of a sudden 3 other people decide they want to run private tournaments.... they'll have to do it privately; aka, outside of the FFR Forums.

    This is a once every 4-6 month type of thing... I don't want it being the norm. In addition, we'll see how this goes and then proceed from there.
    RIP

      I feel special.

      Also Tass, I was actually thinking of making a tournament similar to this because I'm not good with placing people into different divisions. As well as being time consuming, it is not very accurate. That's why I devised a way (such as this one) and wanted to run something like this.

      But it looks like you aren't a fan of private tournaments...

      Also got mega-ninja'd by gnr and this tournament.

          If this tournament was held last year, I probably would've had the enthusiasm to do it.

                  Hmm...I'll think about this. Haha, I really only see myself having a chance up against four to five people on that list. The rest would just dominate me.

                  Edit: I've made up my mind. I'm not going to be participating. Sorry. ):
