Get some trance or ambient songs cut them to about 2 mins, easy step file, easy accept.
Something like Digital Atmosphere for example

Easy acceptance, maybe, but not much of a benefit to the people who play FFR. Wouldn't you rather get praise on a file that you worked hard on for a few weeks than a quick easy file you made in an hour that everybody AAAs and then forgets?

You should start with making simple files, but you can't step those forever.

Then those songs turn out to be boring as fuk to play.

I was talking to him about that since he hasn't gotten any queued files and that he should start on an easy one, I never said he should step those forever. Also in case your talking to me I am working on getting hard files accepted since last year and they always get rejected but I keep trying.

@EnR: Maybe for you but what about the newer players? You think they're just gonna play some Hardkore Atomic for fun?

Also I believe FFR is starting to get too much hard songs and needs more easy ones.

I was referring to your advice. It seemed to give the impression that the best way to get files accepted was to step mostly easy songs, but I apologize.

We have a good share of easy songs as well. In fact, I'm under the impression that the thing that hooks most newbies is the music FFR offers, not stepfile quality. What does it matter that there's no PR? What does it matter that it's slightly offsync? I know this isn't going to change anything, but I'm just throwing my thoughts out there.

Not sure we can do that last one tho.

I believe m1dy rejected FFR permissions for his songs, so yeah, scratch that...

That's a true statement, though, because stepping easy files well is much less difficult than stepping hard files well.

[robertsona]

plus, if you step them right, easy files can be as cool and enjoyable has hard ones

Well, m1dy WANTED to give us permission, but Konami owns his music rights, so...no. But what i meant was it's a m1dy REMIX of a sharpnel song, so i didnt know if we could do it because we have like...1/2 permission.
Just like Keaton had a mashup of Cranky and Eminim that would've been fun to step, but Dj v.s Dj or mashup song permissions conufuse.

For example: On this Protagonist Records sample thing you can get from SGX's shop there is a song called Battery Life that would make a great Difficult or Tricky file. Think First Try minus the 32nds with some 16ths. but at a lower BPM

[robertsona]

yeah we wouldn't have permission, even if it is sharpnel's song, unless you could somehow make an exception with permission

[Breakdown16]

@dore: Let me clarify. What I meant to say was that Coolboyrulez seemed to be advising to step easy files for the sake of becoming a simfile author, but Coolboyrulez cleared that up and I apologized.

[dore]

it's still true lol

There will be another easy batch when easy files (like Easiest-Standard) are needed.

[Xandertrax]

It's been complete for quite a while now.

[Xandertrax]

[kommisar[os]]

[Patashu]

[Patashu]
