FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
So seeing the FFR classics thread inspired me to want to do a classics tourney. This means I will only be using songs from '02 to '05 maybe an '06 in there depending on how things go. And yes this does mean you will be playing synth files XD.
Scoring/Eliminations Being that this is a classics tourney I will be doing eliminations (which how many are eliminated each round will be determined by how many sign up) and I will be doing COMBO scoring. Just to kinda give it a little bit of the official tourney feel. Divisions There will only be 5 divisions for this tourney and I will determine you division based on level stats and how you've been doing in tourneys if currently participating in any. Rounds/Start Date There will be 5 rounds and they will be 1 day each (short and sweet). I will be kicking off this tourney on Friday June 10th at 5pm server time. Rules/Submission Guidelines: 1. NO CHEATING. Do not sign up with an alternate account and hope that you will get away with it. If I have a reason to believe that you are not using your main account, I will ask you. Be honest with me. 2. You MAY NOT USE NOTESKINS, OFFSETS OR MIRROR in this tourney (this means no velocity engine since it does not show if a noteskin has been used). Being that it's a classics tourney I want to keep that classic feel as much as possible. (I would do 1x only as well but then it's too hard to place people) 3. Be respectful to all other competitors in the tournament. Arguments will not be tolerated and are grounds for removal from the tournament. 4. Submissions should be in screenshot form. If you take a video of a run, be sure to grab the screenshot, or we will not accept it. For those of you who do not remember how to take a screenshot, here's some help: Mac users: - Command + Shift + 3: Takes a screenshot of the entire screen, and saves the image to your desktop. From there, you can upload it to a site like imgur.com and crop it if necessary. Windows users:: - Press the print screen button. From there, open Paint (or another image editing program) and paste your image in Paint. If you'd like, you can resize it within Paint at this time. From there, you can upload it to a site like imgur.com and crop it (if you haven't done so). Prizes/Donations As always, donations are always greatly appreciated. Prizes will be determined based on donations and participants. Please send all donations to psychoangel691. Special note: Secret and Purchased songs will be used in this tourney. Psychoangel691 50,000 TC_Halogen 150,000 Andrew Mitchell 40,000 NetJet! 14,000 V-Ormix 30,000 iironiic 50,000 Current Prize Pool 334,000 Participants

|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
Yeah this is just gonna make me rage more than anything else, so... not in lol

Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney

I'm not going to force speedmods on people especially because that can cause division placement discrepancies so you may use whatever your normal speedmod is for this tourney. Quote:

Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
I call BS on Halogen's D2. Even onehand, he should be D3. 1x just makes sightreading harder.
Can I do Index 1.75x D3? Otherwise I'll do Spread 1.75x D4. Either way, IN |
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
Count me in, I play on regular FFR server anyways.
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
good im in
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
I should also mention secret and purchased songs will be used in this tourney.

whatever, someone had a problem with it so I'm withdrawing from D2 and playing D5 with speedmods and such; apparently I'm not allowed to have fun and be different without being scrutinized |

Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
INNNNNNN! Now to read what this tournament is all about lol.
If only we could play the good ol ChronoTrigger song we used to have. Ive always wondered how I would do on it now since I am way better now. |
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
Well I dont have a camera, so I guess its D4 for me. Sorry Halogen, I just thought you might totally wreck D2. Onehanded has a huge difference between 7-8 and 9s
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
Along with Halogen, I was actually debating asking for one hand with 1x speed in D2 xD I'd like to do that instead of Dwhatevs, if that's ok. I can also vid each round.
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
I'm in.... ill play x1 and screen cut like years ago :)
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney

Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney

Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
In, I need to get some of those old songs AAAd anyway and this is just the incentive I need to start doing it.
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
Wait, if I'm playing pettanko, do I have to make vids too :<
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
If you are looking to play in a lower division than your normal than yea I'd need proof that you're playing that style.
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
in!

Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
You should've requested to use the AV miss engine if this is gonna have a 'classic feel'.

Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
I guess I'm in. I wouldn't expect to be in that high a Division anyway, but I might as well.
Also, D5 the hardest, or D1, just cause I'm a little unsure with this one. |
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
D5 is the highest division. And I don't want to go nuts with people trying to get into other divisions playing other styles. The only reason AJ was going to do it is because 1 he'd crush everyone in d5 (unless dossar plays) so he wanted other people to have a shot at 1st in D5. Plus it's kinda boring for him since he AAAs everything. At least 1 handed he has a challenge because he struggles to FC things.

Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
I'm in for D1. oh and what is combo scoring?
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
Oh, if its a 5 division tournament, I might be more appropriate for D3.
<-- No FMO AAAs, few VC AAAs. |
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
If you are going to do combo based scoring can you set a boocap on the songs each round so people cant go and be stupid and just mash the song because they cant combo it/FC it?

Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
Quote:
[Perfects * 550 + Goods * 275 + Averages * 110 - Misses * 110 - Boos * 200 + Combo * 1000] Your combo has far more impact on your score than your PA [Perfect Attack - basically your accuracy] or your boo count, or anything else, for that matter. This wouldn't be a problem except for the fact that you can buttonmash the whole song - you can get a 2,000 boo FC on La Camp, say, and still get a ranking in the top 500, because you hit every note and thus get about 3 million points for the 3,000 combo - the 2,000 boos only take off 400,000, which is easily made up for by the perfects, goods and averages. Thus, a score of like 100-30-0-200 on some song beats a 0-0-1-0 provided the song has a good amount of notes. [and the guy with the missflag didn't miss at the very beginning or end, but that's kinda trivial] This is why most tourneys use "raw score" which is the score kept track of at the bottom of the screen as you're playing the song. tl;dr - Synth put it in unaware of that ^ in the site's infant years and it's become really annoying. |
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
Frankly combo scoring sucks lol. But in the spirit of trying to be as classic as possible I'm using it.
Unfortunately plan remedy is right, but I don't think mashed scores should be much of an issue in this tourney. |
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
Why haven't they changed the scoring system to something more plausible already?
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
I'm not sure if it's going to be the same with BW we'll have to see.
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
definatly in (:
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
i guess ill try my first tourney ever, if u let me... in (:
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
The reason why they havnt "fixed" combobased scoring is because FFR saves your "best" score, you could very easily lose FCs, which makes improving scores less exciting.
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
FC's are basically as meaningless as overall rank. Because they can be mash FCed there is no excitement in it. Right now there are tons of people higher up in the ranks than they should be because someone mash FCd their score and the other person may have had like an sdg type score but with one miss. There's no reason for combo to be worth THAT much.
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
I'll actually participate and submit for this, lol. D3 please.
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
This sound fun!
I'll be in please Can I play as Index since there's no spread on here? :s |
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
What do you mean there's no spread on here?
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
Sounds like a bad translation, he probably doesn't play spread.
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
I'd like to join this.
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
This is a really good idea to just do classics because I REALLY hate the old songs rankings! most of them are mashed or played on by 10s of alts and it makes it really hard to lower the ranks on them.. so this is good cause (: itll push us to improve on hard to get good rank songs!
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
lol yea I was so happy to get the synth files AAAd

Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
What division will I be placed in since this is a 5 division tournament? Just curious.
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
I haven't done divisions yet so I have no idea. It's all going to depend on who signs up.
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
I predict the final round for D5 will be Revolutionary Etude.
xD |
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
Bumped :P
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
Yea I guess I can start placements now. Kinda a smaller tourney this time but that's okay ^_^ should still be fun to watch the rage ensue from the good ol classics XD
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
*cough* bump *cough*

Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney

Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
In. ill try and make 50 k credits in the next couple days and then donate them 8)

Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
I was gonna kick this off at 5pm server time but I'm no good at waiting lol. One thing I'm gonna say right now, don't flame me for the song choices, it's a classics tourney which means you're gonna see all the songs that most people rage at lol. With that being said here's round 1
D5 Party 4u -holy nite mix- D4 Rondo Alla Turca D3 Delirium D2 Legend of Zelda Remix D1 Spontaneous Hydroxide I'm still going to keep the 5pm round time for ending this round since people weren't expecting this until 5. So this round will conclude tomorrow the 11th at 5pm server time. |

Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
First for D2 :3 (Thank you so much for letting me play in this style~)

Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
Since I'm below the red line, do I have to AAA Legend of Zelda Remix to stay safe?
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
Any score will get you above the red line, the red line is just there to show that two people are going to be eliminated this round. As long as you have a score that's higher than the people below the line, you'll be above it (in this case, you can get anything because the other person hasn't submitted yet).
|
Re: FFR Classics Short and Sweet Tourney
Holy crap at the song choices hahaha but thats good! damnnn hahaha I know everyones going to hate this XD
