Your first suggestion, you could probably fix yourself if you wanted other friends that you know of to play the game. Get the game out by word in what FFR can't. I'm pretty sure FFR can't considering some staff members don't have access to certain e-mail accounts regarding FFR, like the official 'Contact Us' e-mail / Forum Administrator e-mail account. Afaik only Synthlight has access to it. He's MIA.

Kongregate would get us a lot of exposure yeah, but 2 issues with that: First is in-game song permissions. In which some song permissions for the game were only obtained on the basis that FFR would be the only people with access to the content, and secondly it would increase site traffic at Kongregate, not necessarily FFR, which was the imposed plan yeah?

Also the hijack link has been there for literal ages. It just ports to the webpage lol.

Third suggestion, we can't make the game for-profit, again, because some in-game song permissions were obtained on the basis that FFR is not making a profit off of it. Even with donations, it's a very iffy line and the donation raising that happened more recently was in favor for the tournament happening and not the actual game.

Well someone has to have the email. And no, I can't. The people that have left I know are well out of reach. Plus I can't reach the scale that my main idea can.

Second, while it may increase the total of people going to Kongregate, it'll also increase the amount of gameplay of the game massively. Trust me, the people who are here will not randomly go to Kongregate. Plus if you want to make an account, you have to go in through the FFR website. It would be a traffic increase in total. Simple. Copywrite issues wouldn't happen either, because there is still no "for profit" aspect here. Half of the songs where made when FFR was on Kongregate regardless.

Third, the suggestions that I have made would not be donating to the actual user's out of pocket expenses. It wouldn't be "for profit". It would be "for the website", or "for the engine", which are both independent of any music relations.

As for Hakulyte, dead on except one thing. You can't just go by view count now. Clearly with people down, less people are getting the new tokens, which makes them "look" harder. In fact massively harder. Like. Hard as FUCK. 100,000 gets vs 200? Holleh molleh.
