Well, think about it this way, if there are scores like the following:
Midnight Dragon: AAA

Hardkore Atomic: 11-1-0-2

-Y: 42-6-1-6
FFLBF: 420-185-82-195

In the same thread, what scores do you think people are going to say "good job" to, and which ones are probably going to be forgotten about? Separating the two will allow for the level of skill to be separated enough for these scores to be recognized by others in the same thread (especially when they are people who have close to the same skill level).

Also, nice AAA Prongsie, and I'm sure you can get the Techno Green Greens one if you give it a couple more goes in the near future!

Re: Amateur FFR Scores!

maybe it would make sense to have multiple threads with well defined 'brackets' as to how good a score should be to be posted in that topic.

for instance the topmost thread would be 'VC AAAs, under rank 200 on FMOs and up, AAAs on sync-based/background-based difficulty files' and then the one under it would be 'D/VD AAAs, under rank 1000 on Cs and up' and then the one below that would be for any scores. something like that

this leads to two things: it makes the stratification of scores into threads explicit not implicit, and prevents complaints along the lines of 'well they can post their scores in FFR Scores like anyone else it's not our fault they're not' because now it's set in stone where they post, and it also adds encouragement and reward behind the thought of moving up through topics. maybe you'd need more than three topics for that to really kick in

Re: Amateur FFR Scores!

I'm +1ing this. I think this should be limited to low VC AAA's. Which is my skill level anyways when I'm lucky. The other thread's like the Dossar/Rubix/Other Guru thread anyways! XD

I support dis

Hell, why not just make a usergroup/forum/etc for each bracket?

Re: Amateur FFR Scores!

I think you guys aren't getting the point.

I am saying that if someone does try to post in the FFR scores thread, somebody new/you haven't seen before, and posts a score, regardless of how good or bad it is, you should try to comment on it, not just ignore them and throw them into the "amateur" scores thread.

It's not a matter of the score being good or not, it's the positive feedback that matters.

[Edit] Again, I am not in opposition of this thread, I am trying to make a suggestion to the FFR Scores Thread folk

Yeah, it's been suggested before and people said they would but it just doesn't work man. I posted a Beethoven Virus AAA there couple days ago, completely ignored.

I understand what yer saying, but most of the FFR score regs don't comment on lower levle songs.

Exactly. Alot of good players don't say anything good about the people's scores that aren't like FMO's or something. To the good players. At one point you've been a n00b and sucked at this game. Although I do support this thread, we all need to mature up a bit and give recognition to the lower tier players. I'm sure back when you were amateurs you wanted recognition for your Very Difficult or Challenging AAA scores. They're probably trying their hardest at this game too.

Re: Amateur FFR Scores!

I ain't getting a lot of recognition here either. XD
But I'm used to being ignored. I just started playing yesterday though, so I gotta wait till I can improve my sh*tty scores...

This thread is awesome. Wish they had it when I had joined.

Re: Amateur FFR Scores!

Why not just post scores in the current ffr scores thread though? I mean it is a thread for ANY score you know. Just saying.

Because you will very rarely see comments for a score under a 9 or 10 unless it's something retarded like Max Forever/Synth files. People post their achievements hoping for some kind of positive reaction to the score (I assume; I know I like when people comment on my scores).

Full support of this thread. It's a great idea.
