Re: 1st Unofficial FFR Self-Improvement Tournament
Before I submit for the last time most likely, just wanted to say thank you for hosting this. I entered this to help me get back to my 2016 form, and I've not only hit that mark, but exceeded it. Only thing I haven't done now that I've done then is get another FGO AAA, but that's not what I'm trying to do. No matter how much in credits I get, I'll be walking away with a new-looking top 15 list with new songs.
Without further ado, my final submissions (unless I session this week with more energy and get lucky.) |
Re: 1st Unofficial FFR Self-Improvement Tournament
This game is weird. Oh well, 105 improvement. And here I was thinking 100+ for this round was a pipe dream. Oh, and new #1, and my first level up since this skill rating became a thing. |

Placeholder scores for me: Minor improvement here, but submitting this anyways: I can mid-SDG this if I'm not derping in so many places, but this should do for now: Going to do a mini-update to make sure the credit distribution part of the spreadsheet is working properly. Sick scores so far, jesus all lmfao. EDIT: Don't worry if you see negative values in your AAA column. This should fix itself if more people submit scores. I'll keep an eye out to make sure credits are distributed fairly :) |

Re: 1st Unofficial FFR Self-Improvement Tournament
280, and another new #1! I'm actually shaking, holy smokes. I think this puts me at over 1000 points of improvement for the whole tournament as well. |

Re: 1st Unofficial FFR Self-Improvement Tournament
Scoreboard updated to here. Probably not going to submit any more improvements on my end since weekend will be booked with friends
Also, because this is an improvement tournament, please comment some things I can improve on as a host for next tournament in the future. Feel free to post here or message me on Discord/PM :) I already have a few things noted mentally and will summarize at the conclusion of the tournament, but I'm open to hearing any new ideas that you all might have for an improved tournament next time. Thanks! |
Re: 1st Unofficial FFR Self-Improvement Tournament
First of all, this tournament was very well ran and I didn't see any point where something went wrong at all. Players that were ineligible were handled accordingly and had a chance to become eligible by following whatever instructions they may have been given. Also it was quite nice to have 20 songs to pick from each round instead of everything riding on one song. Even if you were rusty and you submitted something, it seems like you'll still be getting quite a bit for the efforts.
I do have a question though before I get to my suggestion. The AAA column in the spreadsheet. Is that for if we AAA songs or is it based on how much AAA equivalency we've obtained over the course of the tournament? Now for my suggestion. Seems that the ones that are gonna get the most credits are gonna be the ones that got the most raw score improvements on one song. Based on my experience, there wasn't as much of an incentive to fix a blackflag/low SDG on a song that's within my choice of 20 songs. I was having to choose which songs had the most raw score potential and go with that, hoping I could shave off a fairly great amount of raw goods to get something good submitted. That leads to this: Next time, make it to where improvements on all songs count to get a combined total. This would incentivize players to fix their blackflags/low SDG's instead of leaving them alone because it'd only net them 25 points or something vs the 200 they could get on an 8g to AAA score. It would lead to another suggestion that would come up. If you were to do all songs at once instead of just their best improvement, next flaw would be this. Players that have many more raw goods to shed than others, and actually shedding a lot of them. I don't see much that can be done about that on my end, but I'm sure together the community can come up with some sort of suggestion in that category like reward more credits per raw good shed or something for those who don't have as many. Example being Matthia with all of his AAA's in top 100. |
Re: 1st Unofficial FFR Self-Improvement Tournament
yes
|
Re: 1st Unofficial FFR Self-Improvement Tournament
+885. This is the best AAA Equivalency AND Full Combo I've gotten so far!

Re: 1st Unofficial FFR Self-Improvement Tournament
Scoreboard updated to here.
I will be away for most of the evening so I am purposely sending out an earlier reminder for everyone to try and get their improvements for the hardest round in the tournament. Good luck :) @badman7772: Thanks a ton for your feedback. :) I will address your thoughts and questions after the conclusion of the tournament if that's okay with you. For those that haven't mentioned anything and would like to, please comment on some things I can improve on as a host for next tournament in the future. I can be reached here or on Discord/PM :) |
Re: 1st Unofficial FFR Self-Improvement Tournament
I really didn't think it'd take this long to back to peak skill but last week I got somewhere in the 20 goods range on this so I'm slowly getting back into shape.
I have gotten a bunch of new songs into my top 100 and improved my top 100 average to over 77 now so I'd consider that a win at least. Thank you for hosting this tournament, hopefully I'll do better next time. :) |

Re: 1st Unofficial FFR Self-Improvement Tournament
My scores were pretty "optimized" going in to this so I didn't have a lot of room to improve. Neat idea for a tournament, and thanks for hosting! |

Re: 1st Unofficial FFR Self-Improvement Tournament
Thanks for Tournament and 48 improved my TOP 100 song scores. Iīm really donīt know when would I improve my TOP 100 scores if wouldīt be this tournament.
(most top scores I had for more than 1 year and I donīt be so motivated to improve them) :) But if I had earlier improved them I didnīt definitely get 100k+credit and wouldnīt be in TOP 5 most improved players... I hope for more similar tournaments and competitions on FFR server. My improvement summary: ROUND 1 = 15 songs improved ROUND 2 = 9 songs improved ROUND 3 = 7 songs improved ROUND 4 = 12 songs improved ROUND 5 = 5 songs improved PS: @allparticipants Congratulations to everyone for your songs improvements and prizes and I really hope to see you in next tournaments. :D PS2: @WirryWoo Iīm not really sure if I didnīt still dreaming when I at 9 CET morning woke up and looked on the prize winners and I was written there and later in the afternoon it was changed and I found out I hadn't won $$$ prize... FellsBadMan Otherwise thanks for your hosting. <3 <3 |
Re: 1st Unofficial FFR Self-Improvement Tournament
Just barely missed out on that sweet cash prize...
Thanks for hosting this! :) |
Re: 1st Unofficial FFR Self-Improvement Tournament
Even though the tourney is over and i messed up by not submitting these I would still like to share them! I am not very good at the game and these scores are not the best by any means but It is the best I could do and I have improved so much during this tourney! Thank you for hosting this and i look forward to the next one and to not forgetting to submit my scores for the last round!
|
Re: 1st Unofficial FFR Self-Improvement Tournament
Hey all, thank you again for the kind comments and I hope you all had fun throughout! Going to address some things I can work on to improve for next time right now!
Firstly, I'm really sorry to those that did submit late scores for the last round. Although your improvements were great, I unfortunately cannot accept them. There will certainly be a next time, so keep an eye out sometime next year when I will host this tournament with some improvements. :) Quote:

So although total cumulative improvement is a reasonable solution to tackle this issue, I personally think that implementing that will make the problem worse. Using Matthias as a good example here, he has pretty much all AAAs in his level ranks, so despite him "improving" all 20 of his scores per round, someone lower ranked can easily beat him by playing only a handful of songs. I have spent some time to think of good solutions moving forward to address some of these concerns:
There will be more improvements made for next time. I think I have a ton of tweaking to do to make sure the tournament is more fair. Overall, I'm glad you all enjoyed the experience. Thanks again for everyone's participation :) |
