Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 (Submissions CLOSED)
I like the idea of having the batch open at all times. I think it would also be very less time consuming for judges to assign a rating between 0-10 out of ten points, and not provide any commentary. If a stepartist wishes to know why they receive such a rating from a particular judge, they should make every effort to do so by shooting a PM, contacting them on Skype, etc.. The judges can then go in details explaining why they give that initial rating.
I suggest this because a) this will allow all of the judges to judge your file instead of having them split into different teams. b) Very less time consuming overall and is flexible to everyone's busy schedules. c) Allows better interaction between the stepartist and the judges to try and make the file a good addition to FFR. d) Minimizes contradictory comments and ratings between judges after discussion. Opinions? |

The editor thing was something I had always wished we could have with ffr (or something like it) after seeing KBO's thing when AJ was judging. I brought it up at some point I think to Jon but I don't know if it were something that was plausible. Quote:

I don't think ALL judges will be forced to play every file, but a minimum amount of judges have to play said file for a verdict to be reached.
Comments could be left on each file, revised, and edited. Fixes could also be submitted through this system quicker and judges would be notified of updates. making a system like this would probably require more effort than is available atm :/ |

I should have also noted in my previous post that a cap of say 2 files per month vs a cap of 3 files every what 3/4 months would be better XD (Again just throwing random examples out there)

Commentary on files isn't required judges just do it to be nice

The idea of using quick notes is good for the judge's first time judging the file. It will at least start the stepartist off with something to work on. |
Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 (Submissions CLOSED)
Apparently I'm the only one (or one of the few) who agrees with Middie that subs for extra files should be open..
Granted, judges can spit out charts faster than others, but what about those of us who have had files sitting for months waiting for batches to open? Call me ignorant, but what's so hard about having an open call (say like one file per person) for songs of X difficulty and having like 3-4 of the judges take a peek and give a rating on them? That's just my opinion, take from it what you will. |

I also mentioned several times that I asked people if they had files of a difficulty, not to step them. Hi19 was the first person I went to because he missed the batch due to his power being out, also something I already mentioned. |
Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 (Submissions CLOSED)
I agree with Fluvs.

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 (Submissions CLOSED)
I'm aware of how long ago you had been collecting files. I'm just saying make a post saying
"Oh hey guys, we need a file that's approx. 64-67. One chart per person, files accepted for a day (possibly less), will post results and pick the file." Worst case scenario, you get one decent file. Best case, you get a really good file, and other good files that can either be accepted into the queue or resent next official batch. Not to mention, saying you asked a few people just goes back to the original point of not having it open for everyone. I never saw anything, nor was asked by anyone, if I had a file available for this. Neither was Middie. Neither were probably many people. All I'm saying is that this is a community driven game and a public game. Why not make this opportunity open for the community. |

Then to get real technical if we only have it open for a day or whatever that's allowing people who have files to get in but not those who weren't prepared, so again it's not even fair to everyone collectively. There's 2 solutions as of right now that would work: 1. Not using new files for the tournament. 2. Holding off on the event until every possible gap is filled which means both potentially holding files for a years time and holding up the event for however long. Both of these seem pretty silly to do because of a few files that get judged but don't go through the batch. |

I have another idea for files specific for tournaments. It's a play on your second method. Every single batch happens as normal, but there's also a secondary batch that's open at all times in which you can submit charts specifically for event usage and nothing else. Now this secondary batch is a little bit more stricter on who gets to submit for it. I propose this secondary batch have the same criteria I mentioned before in my previous idea where they have to have 1 or more charts in the game already. Of course, this idea requires the full attention of judges to be very active. However, I see this to be good solution for events specifically that call for new charts. If this solution is not possible, then please disregard. Dohoho EDIT: I remember how you managed the DF tournament. Something like that where it's open at all times. |

However time constraint is something I hadn't factored in. My bad. Either way, back to my once-a-week-or-so lurking which I've grown quite fond of. Also, batch hopefully opens soon because this file here needs to be submitted instead of waiting around for oh so many months. |

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 (Submissions CLOSED)
I think the problem with this is, the common thread between all the people who are complaining (that I've noticed) is that they have never judged a serious pack/FFR batch/Custom Tournament submission pool. Maybe random stuff here and there on TS (lol) but like, never a 100+ file batch with a super strict deadline.
Go try yourself, it's even more involved than giving reviews to a pack after the fact because the files you get are unrefined and take more work to review properly. And people care a lot more about what you say. Lots of people are not giving the judges enough credit, just complaining without any idea how frustrating/difficult it can be to judge files (hint: it's why I'm not an FFR judge) |

The way I see it, anyone who has more than one chart can submit, but it wouldn't be considered "biased" I would think. Who knows though? I'm just trying to help give ideas! |
Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 (Submissions CLOSED)
We don't need more batches to judge ahhhh

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 (Submissions CLOSED)
If I really wanted to be anal, I'd judge files like we did for dark chancellors pack and rip every file apart on every little aspect for 100% quality.
Don't take the current system for granted. It's quite lenient IMO and getting a file in just requires a bit of effort, which some people are still complaining about. Ideally, I would like to see this maybe someday: - 2 to 3 files max per person every month - batches every month - stricter judging and higher score average for acceptance - 2 to 3 mandatory charts per file This would encourage people to think more carefully about their submissions, ensure more quality and at the same time, give easier charts for casual players. |
