    Batch reviews' vocabulary

    In the recent batch review, there are some words that left me clueless, such as:

    - (jump)Jacks;
    - Minijacks;
    - PR;
    - Layers;
    - FMO, FSO, FGO;
    - Etc.

    What do they refer to?

        etc stands for et cetera c:
        Why would you put that in your signature? You've lost your signature rights for a month. (You'll get them back on March 10th, 2012.)

              Jumpjacks:
              Jumping while masturbating

              Minijacks:
              It's a pretty good cereal

              PR:
              Personal Record. Maybe you should submit a screenshot with your submission!

              Layers:
              Onions have layers, Ogres have layers! Your file needs to smell more like an onion.

              FMO: For Morons Only
              FSO: Solo files. FFR doesn't have this, so ignore it.
              FGO: It means your file is rejected.

              ETC is not a stepmania turn though.

                The FFR Picture Dictionary

                The above link provides terminology to a lot of patterns you see in simfiles.

                PR = pitch relevency. Imagine playing an instrument. Arrows should follow a pattern according to how they sound in the relative sense of musical pitch.

                Layers = combining multiple patterns into one, which almost always mean that you're incorporating multiple instruments/sources simultaneously when stepping.

                FMO/FGO = For Masters Only/For Gurus Only. Terminology that pertains to the difficulties of certain songs on FFR. Numerically, FMOs are rated as an 11/13 in difficulty and FGOs are rated as a 12/13 in difficulty.

                  I hope I answered your questions on these terms which are essential to making a good simfile.

                      Yeah, it's very hard to get used to those terms especially if you don't go on the forums much or play the game online. You might wanna go here if you want to know the terms for every kinds of patterns in the game. Also, if you want to know possibly every single kinds of terms ever mentioned in the game then you might wanna go here but i warn you, it's a LONG read!

                        What do they refer to?
                        for a real answer (I'll demonstrate with 1234 corresponding to the arrows):
                        jacks - when you have one note over and over, like 11111, jumpjacks are jacks using jumps (2 arrows at a time)
                        minijacks - when you have the same note repeated once, like 11223344
                        PR - pitch relevancy - where you correspond the patterns to the pitch of the notes, like if you have an ascending scale, using 1234
                        layering - stepping multiple things at the same time which usually ends up in jumps and hands
                        FMO etc - For Masters Only etc, the difficulties in FFR
                        etc - et cetera, that's not an FFR term, that's latin

                          Wow, I didn't know my thread would cause such an outburst in a few minutes for such simple questions.

                          Thanks for the link.

                          @ The rest of you:

                          I knew you would kid about the "etc" part... I should've thought longer when making this post not to get you confused. :P Thwomps!

                              But talking to you guys is so much more awesome!...

                              Shouldn't they should come up with an official advertisement for lurking, don't you think? I personally believe people would buy it.

                              Anyway, I'mma lurk more next time and stop earning you guys some easy +1 posts for once.
