Here ya go. I'm assuming the D_i's correspond to the alpha_i's.

Thank you! 💖

IDK if there's a better thread to ask this question, does anyone remember what PriestREA's winning score for D5 in the 8th official was? Cause their replays on SMW from around that time don't scream "tournament winning score" to me but that was a REALLY brutal file for D5 (well, really brutal before the 11th official changed round difficulty standards or something lol)

Re: Skill Rating & Leaderboards Discussion [Updated Oct 16]
 

6-0-1-1 is their best on the song.

Re: Skill Rating & Leaderboards Discussion [Updated Oct 16]
 

yeah but that was achieved in 2016 which was 3 years after the 8th official

also that's beyond a D7-ass score lol considering the 11th official winning score was like more than 30 goods IIRC for a song only 2 levels harder

Re: Skill Rating & Leaderboards Discussion [Updated Oct 16]
 

Yeah its pretty crazy how hes still d6 at level 94 but some of his scores are pretty damn legit like his #1. 9-0-0-2 on a 101 lmao. How....

Re: Skill Rating & Leaderboards Discussion [Updated Oct 16]

Re: Skill Rating & Leaderboards Discussion [Updated Oct 16]

wait so does this mean im d6 next tourney

lit lemme go set my desktop up after sitting there idle for 4 months

Re: Skill Rating & Leaderboards Discussion [Updated Oct 16]
 

Id say you're borderline d6/d7 lol
I'm like mid d6 and my best aaa is an easy ass 83 and im only level 87 haha

EDIT: I'm sure the only reason its so high is because of my luck ass pandora score and my ability to PA harder shit. HA

Re: Skill Rating & Leaderboards Discussion [Updated Oct 16]
 

Pandora has to be, like, THE song for borderline people to do well on lol I'm far more proud of my AAA on that than Wanderlust (which feels like an 89/90 to me honestly)

dont know where else to post this, but ive been offline for a long while, only just started playing FFR again. i played over 100 songs yesterday (or the day before), most previously unplayed, and i thought i brought my rank up pretty damn far (considering i was bringing my rank for most of those unplayed songs up by an average of ~2500). so i updated my rank: no gain..... then i log on today, and my rank had gone from 7541 to 7543.... wth?! can anyone explain how i LOST rank please?

Re: Skill Rating & Leaderboards Discussion [Updated Oct 16]
 

You didn’t lose any rating, it’s just that other people improved and passed you

Average rank (what you thought you were referencing) is different from skill rating, the latter of which is the primary ranking system and is calculated based on your best scores relative to their song difficulty

D6 player.

Re: Skill Rating & Leaderboards Discussion [Updated Oct 16]
 

so then how did someone who hasnt been online in 4 years surpass me within the last few days? it seems like the ranking system is broken, i REALLY cant be that bad at FFR.

*EDIT*


also: maybe some confusion on my part, but am i wrong in thinking rank and rating are the same?

Re: Skill Rating & Leaderboards Discussion [Updated Oct 16]
 

What you're thinking of is average rank, the one below the one you circled.

The skill rating is ONLY based on your best scores. If you haven't beaten the AAA equivalency on your top 15 songs, your rank will not improve.

Edit:// Also if other people make an account, it doesn't take long to establish a rank. Length of time playing doesn't matter, only your top 15 scores.

Re: Skill Rating & Leaderboards Discussion [Updated Oct 16]
 

so what youre saying is, theres only 15 different songs i can play to up my rank? i know that my skill rating is based on my best scores (it wouldnt make sense to base it on ALL scores), but like i said, i played over 100 songs that day, most of which i hadent played before (so id go from lets say rank 12000 (unplayed) in a song to rank 800 (rank gain = 11200). i did this for ALOT of the songs i played that day. i GAINED rank on the songs i played, not lost. on multiple songs. multiple times. yet here i sit, 2 ranks behind from players who havent played in years?? doesnt make sense.

Re: Skill Rating & Leaderboards Discussion [Updated Oct 16]
 

Your 15 best scores on the hardest songs decide your entire level. Everything else is meaningless.

Someone can play 15 songs and be FFR Rank 1.

Re: Skill Rating & Leaderboards Discussion [Updated Oct 16]
 

Two players recently past you in rank. Neither of them are the user that Haku linked who had gotten those scores four months ago, he was already past you. His post had nothing to do with your inquiry.
