I'd appreciate if somebody could help clear up why ridiculously offsync stepfiles sontribute toward average rank, while skill token and token songs do not.
When I started playing, I played a few easy/standard/tricky songs, and then went to difficult and up. There was no penalty for not playing the easier songs. But now after the average rank statistic has been installed, there is. So, over the last few days I've been going back and playing some of the songs I never before had played. I made a few AAA's on some of the more on-beat ones, but I'd say the majority of them are not AAA-able unless you know when and where the off-syncness is... which, in my mind, is unfair and unenjoyable. You shouldn't have to turn off your speakers for a rythym game. Ok, so I guess this turned into a mini-rant. I do appreciate the free-ness of FFR and I am not trying to offend any mods in charge of syncing songs. You guys rock. I just don't like the fact that these offsync songs contribute toward average rank, and if somebody could clear up why this is so, i'd be grateful. |

What devonin said. Secret songs and purchased songs are still considered public songs, though.

Secret and Purchased are on the levelrank because ANYBODY can whore to get credits, but not everyone can summon up random skill to get skill tokens or think outside the box to get regular tokens

I despise "July" although I AAA'd it with mute.

It seems to me that being able to learn and successfully AAA a stepfile that is out of sync is a skill of its own, and should be counted along with all the other skills. The people who have managed to do this have inarguably displayed a talent, and to receive nothing for it wouldn't quite be fair either. :)

Since ive been here ive been wanting offbeat songs to be put to rest, theyre pointless and i hate them, i agree with wat u said in respect to muting the sound to a rythym game. When i asked about this a while back all i got was "too many people played these songs so theyre here to stay" i mean ffr is completely perfect accept for old jacked up songs, its like the usa in the 1800s: it was perfect in every aspect except there was the old issue of slavery that still needed to be dealt with

If you take the time to actually AAA one of the ridiculously offsync and jacky files, you wouldn't mind. I've AAAed Crystalis, 136.6 and Terror From Beyond - it takes true skill to AAA offsync files. You may think they're annoying, but it takes skill to get good at them, so they should totally count towards your avg rank.

Offsync files are usually + 3 difficulty then they are listed when it comes to AAA'ing them.

The point is that they are the originals. I've been a member for a while and forgot about this site for almost a year. When I came back those songs were the first ones I went to. I remembered them whether they are any good or not. That's all the matters....to me at least.

Average ranks remain for the old, off-beat songs because everyone else has to play them off-beat too. It's not like FFR is picking you out to play a more difficult chart than everyone else. You just end up with a low rank because they're that old, and people have had time to AAA/PA them.
