In please. I was D5 last official but more than likely at a highish D4 level now since I haven't played in a while.

Also comments on this. For Velocity engine replays you probably already know you can just view with your settings then use your own quit key. For R^3 I discovered a seemingly undocumented feature of replays. You can click the song progress bar like a video progress bar and go back and forth or straight to the end. Tested to make sure replays where the player did not show the progress bar still work. The replay engine adds a progress bar in that case.


Edit: This came up.

Then everyone stays on the same score wave length and makes things easier. Only the people that want it to change would have to pay so that others wouldn't be forced to send over X amount of credits.

Like, 50% or 2/3rds vote/pay, then the round song for that division changes.

Sold! Incoming changes to the format and guidelines.

Would this potentially result in lots of credits being transferred back and forth each round if the majority threshold was not reached? Or would the credits just be forfeit? Seems like it would either make a lot of work and/or discourage people from participating.

ehh idk about that whole scoring idea because what if someone makes the person play like a 5 minute song or something.

Seems a bit harsh :/

I mean I think the idea is cool but maybe needs to be altered slightly. Basically now what's coming into my mind is attacks from games like guitar hero. What if a player could challenge another for x amount of credits to a song of their choosing the person who loses gets x amount score penalty.

Maybe something like that would work

If you do the attacks thing I think I may join haha.

Alternatively I may make a tournament with that in it XD

Depending on what you do.

Yay for more tournaments before the Official! :D lol

On the other hand, i would love to host one myself, but I'm trying to really work out an interesting one, so if anything that might happen sometime after the Official.

Updated to this point.

Division List has been updated and placed in the OP! PLEASE Read the list because if you have any questions or concerns, or if someone could double check for me, let me know! I'm trying to be fair to everyone, but give me feedback

Updating Spreadsheet is tomorrow's project, I have to rest tonight -_-

I see you're accounting for krunky's skill drop so does that mean you'd do the same for me? I definitely can't play a D5 level anymore, probably would still die in D4, but prob too much for D3 XD

I can't play in the FGO range anymore because of my wrists.

But Kayla has the tendinitis, which is a valid reason. I have CTS, and it is horrible!

it's still a form of sandbagging
if you're physically hindered you shouldn't be playing

I'm allowing skill drops but they are very much subject to change if their skill is visibly noticeable and they can pick themselves back up. I will have to look into all of this in the morning though, seeing how I'm exhausted and need to go to work in 7 hours and still can't sleep right ><

Even if I played I wouldn't play for credits, don't really need em. I'll just shadow on the sidelines.

There's a clear point being made here (from the initial post and from choof's post), and it doesn't have to do with Kayla's "request" to be dropped down; it's the fact that there's a very very clear discrepancy in divisional placement between what's being requested by a user and where they truly should belong.

See this post, and then check the corresponding level ranks, etc.

This is very much your choice, but watch out -- by presenting one user the opportunity to do it, you're giving other players an opportunity to snuff a particular division (or worse: complaints because x user can do it and y user cannot).

Re: Zenith's Arrows to Music Tournament!
 
Prawn is helping me decipher all of this. But I'm going to use Kayla as an Example.

If I put her into D4, and she AAA'd the first two rounds. I'd bump her into D5 for the remainder of the Tournament, and anyone else who I'd be doing this to, but the only people with legit reasons have asked me. I'm not going to give away this option to anyone who says "Oh I haven't been on in years and I'm probably very rusty.

Krunky wanted to be placed in D5 and since it is split into higher and lower, I figured he would do fine in the higher with his Level Ranks in thought.

Let me get this straight. The winner will be dictated by the person with the most cumulative points in their division at the end of the tournament?

If so will it be the raw score or total score?
