    Re: Amateur FFR Scores!

    Well, that's settled, then. I feel better about myself.

    Edit: I guess it's NOT settled if Mopey's argument still stands.

      I would like to bring back what I said earlier

      This is why lower skilled people do not post as much in the normal thread.
      So I've returned. Maybe I can stick around for awhile.

        Why should there be a confidence issue? It wasn't always just top players posting there. There are more lower skilled players than top players, so I don't see a reason why only top players would be posting. If everyone posted scores when they thought "Oh but that FGO AAA will outshine my AAA" or w/e then there would be a ****ton more lower skilled players in that thread. Way more than top players, definitely.

          Re: Amateur FFR Scores!

          I don't know about you guys. but I just enjoy playing the game. When I get a score I am proud of or a skill token... I just post it here.

          It's always nice to get comments on them... but my mission is just to have fun with FFR and not worry about becoming #1. FC a 11+ and hard skill tokens are all the competition I need.

          Just have fun.

              Like my 60 + Boo 80+ good FC run of Going on a Spring Wind? =p

              Edit:// It's really more about who will be looking at it. The other thread holds the upper circle and they comment back and forth all the time, because they have their skills and years of experience in the community to chat or joke about as well. Amateurs do not have that kind of background, and this kind of thread allows people who are in a similar situation as they are to see the scores and relate to them better.

                You wouldn't get laughed at, but your score would get blatantly ignored for the following reasons:
                1. If everyone posts their scores in the FFR Scores thread, the traffic would be enormous and people would feel less inclined to notice/comment on AAAing anything under an 11.
                2. It would get blatantly ignored anyway because regulars in that thread don't care about 9-s.

                1. This thread would be obsolete
                2. People with a lower skill would be more confident to post their scores in the normal thread.
                Unfortunately, this will never happen because of reason 1 I posted above. It wouldn't be a big happy family, it would be a 5 page per hour scorefest of nobody cares. Nobody gets attention, nobody is happy. The way it is now is good, there's 2 threads and people are getting noticed within their group in the FFR Scores thread and people posting here are getting attention here. No harm, no foul.

                a) Is it something I should be proud of, and b) Do you think it belongs in the normal scores thread?
                Decent score on a 10, goes in the FFR Scores thread.

                    Yep, which means the only time I will posting in here now is to give a congrats to lower skilled people and/or response to other random posts in here.
                    So I've returned. Maybe I can stick around for awhile.

                          Tip: Free day? Free day no more! All day, FFR. Break your hand playing harder songs.
                          So I've returned. Maybe I can stick around for awhile.

                            Back to some scores..

                            AAA #170


                            I hadn't played this since ichliebekase's tournament and when it came on random, I was surprised how much easier it was for me to read.


                            Another one with the random button that I surprised myself with:


                            Two of the goods were completely BS from me not paying attention by the end of the song.


                            I have no idea where this came from. xD


                            Yet another one that gives me troubles.

                              Pretty good... wait, you said 170 AAA's? Very nice. I could... but all the songs under 7 are really annoying to play.
                              So I've returned. Maybe I can stick around for awhile.

                                Well, public AAA #170. I have 194 total right now. But thank you. Most of the lower songs are a pain for me to play just because they're slow. I have better PA on some 8's than I do on 7's.
