Default Re: Suggestion: Replace 'FC' Bar

The problem with FCs is the degree to which they don't actually require a lot of skill if you can mash hard enough, especially when an FC gets taken away when you get a cleaner Non-FC score (which seems to be the thing that prompted the thread in the first place)

I'd either set the FC bar to just increment when you got a score of 0 misses for the first time on a song, and never decrement even if your best score was not an FC, or come up with some applicable formula that could define around what a "Clean" FC is for a given song. Not my forte to figure out but something like "The raw score that comes from less than 1% boos and 5% averages" or whatever, to be like "You cleared the song well and cleanly" and use that instead.
