You managed to take part in my Blitz where the whole -event- was only two weeks. Two weeks just to sign up seems good to me.

Offsets exist for a reason :)

And yes my bad, I forgot to change the tag on the thread because I was juggling 100 other things. It's kinda low priority to the things that actually make the tournament function. Was a minor oversite that has no effect on anything.

Two weeks is standard for sign ups, and I can easily add people during the first round if necessary, it's just a simple message to me. I don't know what you're so angry about but it doesn't seem you enjoy this game very much now a days anyway.

Heard there's still some confusion on D8. It's still a little bit of a work in progress because we went from only having 7 people to 16 so it kinda changes things up a bit. Everyone does still need to play, non submits will be dropped. I'll get back to you on exact elims soon.

We're not doing elims in the beginning rounds for D8, the plan was for the first 3 to be "qualifiers" that were cumulative then start elims after the first 3. Now with 16 I think 2 round is better to keep everything split well.


Edit: yes discord is best way Azlyn #4286

am streaming Apex atm though, this is kinda my nightly wind down lol.

One Winged Angel 08-12-2019 12:04 AM

Re: 12th Official Tournament
 
TSR's suggestion is also cumulative for the first two rounds, it eliminates the bottom two at the end of the second round. It looks pretty clean to me and lines up top 8 with the other divisions as opposed to a round earlier.

Regardless I'm just hoping something is solidified soon, I'm out of state and my time to actually play this week is going to be cut extremely short. Knowing what's going on with the structure would be helpful in gauging what's relatively safe and what isn't.

Because Gabba gave me a heads up on that event, otherwise I would have missed it. As you can tell, Gabba didn't catch the official tourney, which is why I missed it as well. I checked the site on the 10th, which was two days after the sign-up period. I figured the tourney would be around October, which is the time it was for the 10th tourney, and that it wouldn't be for some time anyways since to my knowledge it takes many months to review normal batches and tourney batches are bigger.

Question. If multiple people AAA a file, since they have the same score, is it considered a tie for that song, or are the people who AAAed stilled ranked separately based on their Amazing:Perfect ratio? Idk since this is my first tourney

Given the awesomeness of these, I'm going to leave these as being for 1st in each division, and bump my perler arrows down to 2nd place in each division, so more people can have a cool physical prize.

All that matters is whether you are above the elimination line, and AAAs keep you safe regardless.

Just passing by to say that both of these bolded statements are incorrect information in the context of official tournaments and have been traditionally incorrect for quite some time.

Clarification might need to be provided for division 7 players because there may still be ambiguity about how that's going to work due to the division expansion (previously, D7 players used to unlock the older support tokens/event tokens simply by involuntary placements) and vRofl may still be up in the air. I'm not the one to answer that, though.

However, for division 6 and lower - if a tie occurs on a round where prizes are set to occur (i.e. round 5 and on) that extends beyond the cutoff, players involved with extending the cutoff due to a tie will have to play another song. This has occurred since the 6th official FFR tournament (I would know, considering I had to play do i smile? against samurai7694 in a failed attempt to get to the finals), which was run by the same person running the tournament now.

This also includes AAA or die situations as well (this occurred in the 10th official tournament in D7 on round 6, forcing players to play CirnoRHTL to break the AAA tie on Rengoku-Purgatorium-).

well division bumps seem to be tied with the fact that they added an entire new division, so there had to be some adjustments to where the rest of the players stand.

late sign ups are probably cuz most people in the FFR community only drop by on the site maybe once every couple months if that lol

I haven't done any division bumps since the tournament started outside of dugatee and requested bumps.

Not sure where you're looking but 6g on an 85 is nowhere near an almost AAA. They're clearly d5 being level 80. That's like saying I almost aaad Pandora from a lucky 2-1-1-1 score which is nowhere near a perfect run.

Joking aside, I find the new D2 songs way easier and actually pretty fun. Got it to a blackflag pretty early. Now it's a matter of getting over my paranoia of actually seeing an AAA and nailing that score down

I was talking about the 84.88 AAA equivalency on the 93 that is his top song. The division barrier is at 82/83, so if he's getting 85 equivalency scores, there's an argument that he is low D6 despite his current skill rating being 80.

Ah okay. Id still say theyre D5 though. One almost 85 doesnt really mean much in terms of skill seeing as people have strengths and weaknesses. Pretty sure theres some D6 players with D7 scores yet they are still in D6 because of their level. Either way it doesnt effect me, but still think its pretty lol
