James May's Ye Semi-Olde Fashioned Stepmania Tournament [Canceled]
(nice cooltext :T) Hello people, Captain Slow here, the guy who stepped Pepper Steak, DANBO, Juicy and currently on track to release a fifth pack (totally not a self-promotion thing I swear oops), and also ran two previous tornaments known as the Wheel of Arrowsmashing Tournaments a year or two ago. Anyhow, time to get to the jist of the tournament. I'm planning on running a Stepmania tournament. One that doesn't involve mods or gimmicks, silly trivia stuff or even have to use math to get some sort of algorithm to achieve a perfect score. Just some good ol' fashioned Arrow smashing. Now, here are some ground rules 1: All files/songs/maps/charts/whateveryouidentifyyourselfas must be played on J4*, there will be no bonuses rewarded in using a higher judge count.1a: the only exception to this rule is if both players agree to use J5 in the match, otherwise both players have to use J4 2: All rates must be played on 1.0, of course you can try higher rates but there will be no bonuses awarded if you are playing a song on 1.5 compared to someone playingthe same song on 1.3 and so forth. 3: I have a right to request anyone to present a video of any files that they have played if I, and/or the majority of the players, feel like you are bullshitting. 3a: Addendum to Rule 3, if I find that the proof isn't sufficient enough to see that your score is legit, I do have the right to deny your score and eliminate you from the tournament. (really terrible example: Getting a FC on OME at one point in the tournament and failing it misreably on the proof video) 4: I will allow livestreaming if you wish to do so, just remember to post a screenshot of the score in the thread. 5: You are -not- restricted to using the default theme/noteskin/speedmod, that you have full freedom on using whatever you want. Hell, you can even use Jousway's Minestorm noteskin or a Siezure noteskin for all I care :B 5a: Because most players that play Stepmania has gone on to Etterna, and the scoring system I am using is on WIFE, I do require players to be on the Etterna engine. This is to maintain consistency.* 5b: And because most players are using the latest Etterna version, with the lack of Chord Cohesion: Players are required to have at least Etterna v0.55 or later. To download the latest etterna version - https://etternaonline.com/downloads ** 6: No, you are not forced to log onto the SMO server to play the songs. 7: Have fun, we're all here to have fun. (*Rule 5a was added due to the span of the year of updates that happened during the development of Etterna and most players shifting to Etterna instead of other Stepmania versions. **Rule 5b was added due to the lack of Chord Cohesion in the later Etterna versions, thus being added for consistency) The breakdown This tornament will be run by dual brackets: A Winner Bracket and a Loser Bracket. Each round will be a best of 3, and the skills comprising it will be Stamina, Speed, and Accuracy (MA). So for instance, for one round: Stamina's song could be The Deceit/The Violation from Xeo & Friendz, Speed's could be Torero from Kaiten 4, and Accuracy's song could 0 (Piano Version) from PMOE. As for determining how the brackets will be done, I'll probably use a bracket generator website to use for it. Scores will be determined by WIFE% (The default scoring% for Etterna). The files will be selected personally by me and only me, and the three files will be put up in a .zip file together and posted on the thread. Rounds will also be running 5 days each round (so if it starts on Saturday, round will end on Thursday and that's when the next round starts and so forth), this will give time to players to play the songs and post the scores/improve on it. I will only take the best scores of song from the round when the deadline hits.How do I screenshot? For windows, you just press the PrtSc button on your keyboard, which will promptly save in your screenshots folder (for those using Stepmania 5 on Vista [which why? lmao] to Windows 10, it will be in %appdata%>roaming>Stepmania 5>Screenshots; for those using Etterna: it'll be C://>Etterna>Screenshots) and upload it to either here in your FFR photo gallery or any image-sharing websites. For Mac users, press command+shift+3, that will save the picture, double-click on it, crop it, cut it (command+x), and follow suit to the instructions for windows but instead use the command button instead of the control button. Seeding breakdown The seedings will be determined by the game client's Etterna rating that you currently have. The reason why I'm using the game client and not the online one is because there might be the case where not everyone is on the latest version of Etterna. Next tournament, I will require players to be in the latest Etterna version. Credits breakdown (will update accordingly) Grand winner: 50% of the credit pool (360,162 credits) Runner-up: 30% of the credit pool (216,097 credits) 3rd place: 15% of the credit pool (108,048 credits) 4th place: 5% of the credit pool (36,017 credits) Credit pool total: 100% (720,324 credits) Donation Pool James May (Me~): 310,324 credits PhantomPuppy: 100,000 credits Spacegorilla: 100,000 credits 11Brendon: 60,000 credits HitlerWasRight: 150,000 credits Sign-ups 1. storn42 [20.39] 2. who_cares973 (wv) [18.66] 3.

Re: James May's Ye Semi-Olde Fashioned Stepmania Tournament
Approved
(Sky Kitten edit: This tournament was made last year, but did not go live until now!) |
Re: James May's Ye Semi-Olde Fashioned Stepmania Tournament
Attn: I am going to be making edits to the breakdown portion since DP is partially no longer in use, I'll be reverting that DP% to WIFE%, as for the rest of the stuff, it's fair game.
Edit: I'll also be running sign-ups until the end of the month, so that way I'll have time to set up the brackets and then get everything started. |

Re: James May's Ye Semi-Olde Fashioned Stepmania Tournament
Added rule 5a to OP. I realized that I realized something crucial when activating the tourney now compared to the inception of the tournament idea from last year. The rule is added as a measure of consistency as enabling DP in later Etterna versions requires a few extra steps in order to get the desired effects from last year.
Edit: Updated to this post and added a section on how seeding would be determined. |
Re: James May's Ye Semi-Olde Fashioned Stepmania Tournament
|
Re: James May's Ye Semi-Olde Fashioned Stepmania Tournament
also if it hasnt been mentioned yet etterna .55+ should be required because of chord cohesion

Re: James May's Ye Semi-Olde Fashioned Stepmania Tournament
K, so I downloaded it and I'm at the installer. It almost finished, then it gave me a message box with, "StepMania 5 requires visual studio 2015 x86 C++ runtimes to run." Also, I clicked okay and the install finished and everything. I went to run it, and it's giving me this "blahblahblah stepmania.exe isn't a valid Win32 application." Damn it, that's frustrating. : |
|
Re: James May's Ye Semi-Olde Fashioned Stepmania Tournament
That is really strange tbh :/
|
Re: James May's Ye Semi-Olde Fashioned Stepmania Tournament
Guess I'm fucked, then. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
|
Re: James May's Ye Semi-Olde Fashioned Stepmania Tournament
have you tried installing c++ 2015 or did you just completely ignore that error and expect it to work
|
Re: James May's Ye Semi-Olde Fashioned Stepmania Tournament
Yes, because I figured my old ass computer wasn't compatible. But to humor you, I'll give it a try.
EDIT: Did it, still getting the "not a valid Win32 application" error. |
Re: James May's Ye Semi-Olde Fashioned Stepmania Tournament
Try reinstalling etterna now that you have c++ 2015 installed. Maybe doing it out of order was the issue
|
Re: James May's Ye Semi-Olde Fashioned Stepmania Tournament
Thought of that, still nothing.

Re: James May's Ye Semi-Olde Fashioned Stepmania Tournament
i'm out of ideas outside of trying to install win10 on your machine but i'm not sure if you have the specs for it.

I DM'd you and got this message "Your message could not be delivered because you don't share a server with the recipient or you disabled direct messages on your shared server, recipient is only accepting direct messages from friends, or you were blocked by the recipient." so just in case - Etterna client rating is 19.10 |

Edit: I'm editing the OP right now, I'm placing the etterna ratings from the online site as a placeholder until I get the game client rating as well, if its the same rating as the game client, please let me know. Those that I haven't gotten a rating from in either the site or the game client, I'll mark with an * and message them after sign-ups close. Edit 2: OP is updated to this post. The following people that need to show me their etterna client score due to not being able to find them on the etterna online site are: Storn42, who_cares973 (wv), FirstMaple8, Pizza69, and FFRGreen |
Re: James May's Ye Semi-Olde Fashioned Stepmania Tournament
Update: I have gotten started on making the brackets for the tournament, if you have a username on the site Challonge, let me know so I'll add it in.
http://challonge.com/Etterna_Tournament ** **NOTE**: The brackets are not final. Don't fret that you'll be stuck with said player and whatnot, and the numbers next to your name signifies your seeding position. The folks that are ranked under RenegadeLucien, I will need your etterna ratings if you want to stay in the tournament. Again, the brackets are not final. |
