Song Identification Tournament!
![]() So, I came up with a little guessing tournament of sorts. It's rather simple, and is just a little bit of a see-what-you-know-about-FFR game. ![]() 1. You will be viewing videos of FFR games being played, on a keyboard. Based on those videos, you will get to submit guesses as to what you think the song being played is. Feel free to check out the Tournament Tutorial video; the link is under the Videos category. ![]() (Videos for the round will be made public at the start of each round.) ![]() Round 1 ![]() Round 2 ![]() Round 3 ![]() ![]() Round 4 ![]() Round 5 ![]() Round 6 ![]() ![]() A. Please, don't help or give hints...If I decide to, that is up to me and they will be given at times when it will not be unfair to any entrants. Helping others is prohibited. I mean, you want to win, don't you? ![]() Status is awarded based on the number of correct answers you have given. The more you get correct, the further up you advance. Here is the breakdown: As a few of these videos are of songs that should be rather easy to guess, the beginning ranks will be bunched in groups. As the guessing gets into the more difficult songs, the rank is broken down more in order to provide an obvious set of winners. Ultimately, winners will be decided on an "amount of correct answers" basis. In the event of a looming tie, I will create a tiebreaker video of three songs with no hints. Guesses will be submitted and recieved in the same fashion as the normal rounds. ![]() Final Prizes will not be determined until the near end of the last round due to possible contributions. Current breakdown goes as follows: 1st Place - 30,000 2nd Place - 25,000 3rd Place - 20,000 4th Place - 15,000 5th Place - 10,000 6th Place - 1 Total Pot: 100,001 Donors: justin_ator - 100,001. . . of my 166,000 . . . And also...I'm not asking for this by any means, but if someone with a bunch of credits wanted to donate, I would greatly appreciate it. I don't have a whole lot to work with. PM me if you have any interest in that or if you do send them, as I might not notice right away. PS: The Bonus, available at the beginning of Round 4, is up for guessing for 10,000 Credits, not tournament advancement. You may post hints and discuss the bonus, and the bonus alone, in the thread. The downside to this is that only the first person to correctly guess the answer will receive the credits. You must PM me the answer to the Bonus, as with a typical video guess, but you are not limited to two guesses. If I feel you are excessively throwing out random guesses, I will give you fair warning before disqualifying you from the bonus song guessing. ![]() At the end of each round I will update this with the current leaders and ranks. 14. psychoangel691 14. kjwkjw 14.

Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Approved.
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
I like this one :D In please
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Ah Nice concept. I like guessing games so I'm in.
EDIT: By the way, Video 10 is backwards. Just a heads up. |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
XD we used to do this in the house when it was me, AJ, Frankie and Eric.
In |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Since I got the intro video's song pretty easily, I'm in.
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
at first I was like 'da fuc, I have absolutely no idea, better not join', but then I went through my levelranks and was like 'ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh'
in, even though every tournament I join I end up doing nothing lmao...hopefully that'll change since this'll require less effort on my part |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
ill participate, sounds fun and i could use the credits :3
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
also I'm going to be a complete ****** and point out that it'll be kinda easy to get every single song right using some of the resources we have at our disposal on this site :/
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
OWA, I realize this, but I would ask that you guys take up the challenge and do it without using the easy ways to figure this out. This has the potential to be fun, but if you really wanna ruin it for yourself, you could. And I don't take any offense to you pointing that out.
Also, Zek, I know. =] In due time, you'll understand. Edit: I'm foreseeing potential ties in the end, I'll work on a way to do the tiebreakers that eliminates some of the easiest ways to "cheat" on it. |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
This is actually pretty cool. Definitely checking this out.
EDIT: Love the rankings. |

Re: Song Identification Tournament!
in sure
lol got the intro song |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
In
Also is video 10 upside-down because that chart will be mirrored??????? |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
so in lol
Quote me for spoiler on introduction song :) |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
try to play each song on an offline engine, or play as not being logged in. that might help with the cheating
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Soco, two things:
I did play on an offline engine. All the videos are already made and up. They're all just set to private on YouTube. =] If I have to do extra songs for the tiebreakers, rest assured they will be done on an offline still. |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
sounds fun lol, in.
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Cool, I'm in.
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Update, I decided to make a slight change to the videos. I will only be showing
A PORTION of each of the songs, that way song length cannot be used to limit your options. =] That being said, it will not be a major change. You will still get the majority of the songs played, so it won't be like impossibly hard to guess them. It will just be enough to throw off those who would try to use song length. =] (and no, I'm not going to cut the same amount out of them, nor will it be a percentage of the song. You won't be able to calculate the length. =]) And OWA, I would like to speak to you privately in my office for a second. Quote:

Re: Song Identification Tournament!
In, should be fun
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
in.
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
If you are still signing people up then I'm in. Also for each song, do you have the sound turned off or would that make it too hard?
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
in :D
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!

And also, the videos will be EXACTLY like the Introduction video there. Feel free to watch it and see what they will be like. |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Nice layout, haha. In.
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Thanks...took a little while to do =]
EDIT: Update, videos are almost all fixed. Song length will no longer be able to give away files, as the videos are all cut at random times in the songs. |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
a new unique tourney? count me in ;D
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
This is still starting Friday at noon! Keep joining guys!

Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Really cool idea, count me in.
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Spread sheet and Videos 1-4 are uploaded and ready to go! Youtube's being dumb, I'll get the edited videos for 5-12 up with plenty of time before those rounds.
Only one more day before we begin! I'll send out profile reminders to the entrants on Friday before we start. |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Intro song was fairly quickly gotten, yeah
In I suppose |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
I guess I'll try this out.
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
In please. :)
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Hmm.. might try this out. By the way your rank descriptions work, I'd be #2 right off the bat xD.
But I play with a headset, so I don't hear my taps... this may be harder than I thought. >.> |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
I'm in, sounds fun. :3
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Announcement:
(Also going in the main post) Due to a change in work schedule, the tournament will now start two hours earlier, at 10:00 AM server time tomorrow, July 1st. The round will still end on July 4th at noon as planned. Edit: https://spreadsheets.google.com/spre...w2bFE&hl=en_US Spreadsheet is now up and functioning, anyone can view it (No it won't give away the answers). |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Should've unhid the videos while you were at it. -_-
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Okay so, there was a problem this morning with me getting on because my two-year old sister took priority over me because she was watching a movie on the computer...
I am super sorry guys. Round one is up and ready now. The round will end as planned, since you can guess even after the round ends. Good luck, and again I apologize. |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
I can sing every one of these songs in my head, using the instruments used in the mp3s. But I can't name them... :|
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
DDD:
I give up, count me out. |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Mmm, I'm close to giving up too. Here's my look at the 1st 2 videos:
Video 1: "Hm... not bad, not bad" *gets 2/3* Video 2: "WAT :shock:" |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Don't quit guys. I'll start releasing the hints with the videos.
Video 1 - Between 2 and 8 in difficulty Video 2 - Rock Genre |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Man I already had almost all of em with no hints. Don't give hints this early :(
I was only missing two and that was the last two on the 2nd vid. And I know I know them just trying to pinpoint it. |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
ChessWizard, I'm going to have to take and count your first guess on Song 1. Lucky for you, it was correct.
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Okay, I have decided that the hints for this round are out and will be left as is, but the next rounds will not have hints unless there is dire need because nobody can guess them.
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
... Yup I'm out, I don't know ANY songs between 1-9 difficulty.
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
I'm out too. This is too hard for me at the moment.
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
This is harder than I expected.
EDIT: One of the songs just came to me randomly. Four more to go, rofl. |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Video 1 is pissing me off, but I think I will join since the 1st song was EASY.
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
i'm out.
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
:( people are quitting way too fast. Give it a chance. They don't always come to you right away. I'm still stuck on the very last one. I did not think it was a rock song and I can't seem to find it. I'm pretty much 100% sure that I have all the others correct though.
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Alright, Emithith, you're in! Added to the spread sheet and ready to go. Also, updated.
If you guys that quit change your minds, you can always rejoin until the last round, no penalty. Just means you'll have more songs to catch up on. There will be FMO's and FGO's and stuff coming up. |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Think I got all 6 of them !_! (Song 5 took me quite a while haha)
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
You did, kjw.
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Too busy to do this. Packing, travelling, programming. Sry. out. :[
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Mkay. Out of curiosity, what do you program/administrate on FFR?
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
don't know when this was started, but I'm in if that's okay, sounds fun!
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
You're only two days in, it won't be much of a problem for you. =] Get to guessin!

so nearly everything. |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
C'mon stavie, don't give up just yet. Do some diggin! Try to narrow it down by difficulty, etc...not all of these will come to people right away.
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
I'm not submitting my answers on video 1 until I know all 3, just so you know. They both sound familiar. I just can't remember what song I remember it from.
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Take your time. Just don't end up forgetting! Lol. =]
EDIT: for those of you that dropped out you can still rejoin. |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
This contest is QUITE like those Chocographs in FF9. lol
Also, I don't know why the hell people know songs 2 & 3 and I can't figure it out. I'm sure I'll get it though. :P |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
I honestly don't even know what you're referring to, so it was obviously purely coincidental. Lol.
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
I'll try. If I can submit answers for round 1 tomorrow, I'll try, but I started way too late to figure them out by midnight.
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
As stated in the OP, you have until the final round to submit guesses on ANY video and round.
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
I can't seem to get the last one... I've spent way too much time on it.
EDIT: Wow I'm retarded |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
I'll get round to this later, will be hard for me with my limited FFR knowledge, but whatever. x_x
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Is there any set time when the other Rounds will start?
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
They were supposed to be started already honestly, but considering I have had one guess submission since round two, I haven't updated it...I think I'll start the next round tomorrow, and then the final round will last from the 21st to the 25th. You have a decent chance of getting somewhere if you actually guess, seeing as nobody else is still guessing...
|
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
R.I.P.
This was a good tournament idea but submissions were a problem. My first tournament also had lack of submission syndrome haha |
Re: Song Identification Tournament!
Yeah, I've ditched this... Submissions went out the door after the first three rounds. Oh well..fun while it lasted, and fun making them.
