Numi's First Tournament

[NumiGamer]

Re: Numi's First Tournament

I've been grounded. That's why updates have not been present. I have 9 PMs. Last I remember, I had about 20 people who still hadn't submitted. This very much saddens me. If this tourney was really such a bad idea that so few people cared enough to even submit, why did I get a bunch of posts saying it was a cool idea and such? I'm confused... and sad...

I believe he said that he wouldn't be letting us look at the replay after the first round, but I'm not 100% sure. Also, what's wrong with both Fractal and me getting exactly the target score twice in a row?

I used a specific strategy to get the score last round. I missed every blue and yellow note. Either that or I missed every pink and yellow note. I let you all see that to show you basically that random styles that may be implemented later in the tourney. There was absolutely no special thing I did, I just hit the notes super early and with avg-miss fix not on replay vids, I figured it'd fail me out of the song early on anyway, so it wouldn't matter even if there was anything to get out of the replay.

And one of you posted in the thread instead of by PM, its true. pics weren't working by PM for some reason. I checked the quick reply and the url didn't even show up. So in his case, its okay. I'm pretty sure someone else posted here in the thread rather than PMing me, and yes. You should have PMd me the score. If you have some legitimate reason to post here, then tell me and I'll have no problem with it. I'm pretty sure I made it clear that submissions are easy to miss if there's a conversation going on about the tourney. As well, questions and such can be easy to miss due to images being large. So, in the future, please PM me your submissions.

Re: Numi's First Tournament

Wow, this is actually a pretty cool idea. It would be really crazy if you added arrow mods in there too.

In... Sounds fun

Interesting idea. In.

Eh, what the hay. In!

Should be funny to see what we have to try and reproduce. :3

I'd like to join this. New types of tournament are a nice change

Approved and in!
This sounds fun. Just don't make it too easy ;p

Edit: I just realized how late I was on this. Sorry about that xD
I usually don't miss any.

All within the first page and they all say this thing would be cool/fun etc.

Lets see all their tourney stats...
Zybanthia:eliminated first round due to no submission.
nois-or-e:eliminated first round due to no submission.
breakdown16:still in, submitted round 2 (I think) I'll check my PMs again.
cyrenics:seemed happy with this idea. eliminated 1st round for no submission.
tangomango:still in, I'll check PMs again to see if he submitted.
Sprite-:survived the random.org generator last round, but I specifically remember him NOT submitting this round. Damn. Sounded like he thought it'd be fun.

Can those of you who've regulared this forum throughout the tourney tell me whether or not you've thought it was at all fun? Did it completely suck? An alt. score system was PMd to me not long after the tourney started, and its much better than the one I have now. I planned on using it in the next tourney I host. If this tourney will fail miserably, which it looks like it may happen because of people telling me they forgot about it (kind of hard with all the reminder PMs I send) I'd like to have an extra round (after the final round) in which anyone who had submitted at any point may participate in and I'll give two songs and scores and I'll use that alt score system. It seems much more fun and interesting. I want to do that and I'll base my decision to hold another tourney like this off of feedback from that round.

*EDIT* Those of you who HAD submitted and stuff, thanks for using a little time for the tourney. Not too many people are active in it, and it looks like it'll only be a competition between about 20 of the original 55. Decent credit prizes for such a small amount of participation.

Re: Numi's First Tournament

Sorry man, I've not been as on-the-ball ad I could've been. Being grounded and unable to get on FFR didn't help. Turns out I deleted the folder on my desktop where I saved the .txt document containing all the future songs and scores, so I have to get them again. I'll get a score again, likely on a 7 or an 8 this time, and update the score in an hour or so.

I'm having problems right now and a semi-failing tournament doesn't make anything any easier. I REALLY appreciate the support here. And yes, I will likely have a mashfest for the final round. And specify you must have at least X boos or the score won't count so that you have to do something other than get 4 perfects and a miss to replicate my score exactly lol.

*EDIT* I never told you when round 3 starts... oops. I'll tell you that once I update the score. I need to update score submissions as well, so I know who to NOT add to the list of people on the elimination generator... =(

You are doing fine. ^_^

This is original and fun. Half the people not submitting is simply the nature of FFR tourneys. In about every tournament you see (Including the official ones) the first couple round knock out all the inactive people. So don't sweat it. As discouraging as it may be, it is very much the norm.

Also, as a suggestion you should make/use an alt so people can't see how you got your scores.

Re: Numi's First Tournament

ROUND 3 STARTS NOW
That's right. I said it.

"So what randomness have you for us today, Numi?"
"Well, old chap, I have a score filled to the brim with perfects and misses!"
"Will you tell us how you got them?"
"No."
"Please?"
"No."
"Pretty Please?"
"No."
"Please?"
*Gunshot*
"I've deleted the replay and everything, so those few who actually tried to replicate my score NOT by autofail, you're on your own here."
God I'm silly today... Anyway, the score and song are:
DRIVEWAY [HEAVY]/191,750/587-20-0-450-0
ELIMINATIONS WERE CHOSEN
NekoGon
retching oesophagus
TrixiePuff
#Number
GG_Guru
Sprite-
jump_the_bullet
Ralys
Redorigami
Zap_Track

I ♥ random.org and its sequence generator. Fair eliminations FTW. ^_^

Alright. Its been awhile since I'd been in a tourney. I never really paid attention to other eliminations or anything, just the song, score, and whether or not I was below the line of death. Well, that makes things better I guess. But still, having more than half the tourney not participate and get eliminated? I don't think thats the normal ratio... Whatever. It makes it easier for the rest of you guys to get the prizes. Less competition.

*EDIT* lol I've edited this post 8 times already.

Also, what's wrong with both Fractal and me getting exactly the target score twice in a row?

I applaud that you and Fractal got perfect scores both rounds.

Re: Numi's First Tournament

Re: Numi's First Tournament

FINALLY! Thank you for posting. I've been waiting for someone to do so. I hate double posting. I only do it when necessary because I got the sh*t flamed out of me for it once back when I was but a wee n00b. (Note that the bottom of my last post had a counter for how many times I edited it. I think it got up to 9.)

I was going to say I'll PM everyone about the start of the tourney soon. I'll send results, eliminations, the song/score etc., just not tonight. I'm really not up for it. I'll do it tomorrow night. It won't make too big a difference though anyway, since you've got until the 29th.

Re: Numi's First Tournament

i think you should shorten the days too cause if you follow the tourney then you know when its due theres no reason to wait till the last minute and put you in stress

Re: Numi's First Tournament

Easy sauce.

Re: Numi's First Tournament

Lawl what month is "FERBRAURY"?jk why dont you just play a few songs played in various ways all on the same day, just save the SS's on you comp, and then post them when the time comes? and are you able to at least tell us the combo you got on the song? good choice of a song by the way

[Dark_Chrysalis]

Re: Numi's First Tournament

Re: Numi's First Tournament

[Dark_Chrysalis]

Re: Numi's First Tournament

No, MageMonkies is poking fun at the fact he misspelled the month (it's February, not Febraury)

[TrixiePuff]

Re: Numi's First Tournament

Had no way of getting a computer because I got kicked out of my house again, sorry Numi

Can't say I didn't try though.
