Modern Keyboard Megapack [OPEN]

Modern Keyboard Megapack [banner pending]

Posting on behalf of snover. Terms dubbed “outdated” by some of FFR’s judges and simfile contributors used here for sake of clarity and recognizability.

Pack Organizer: snover
Judgement Team: snover, Skwid, Tim, Lofty

Pack Aim:

The aim of this project is to compile a (cool) (modern) variety pack. Dumpfiles and technical files are both permissible for submission. Even ‘regular’ jumpstream files may be accepted if they are interesting enough. Submitting singles is fine as long as they are not in other packs. (hence single but lol) No re-releases are allowed unless it’s a v2 and that v2 is significantly different.
The pack size is currently set at a range of 50-65 files. We are looking for files which are groundbreaking, seeping with identity, and unapologetically purposeful. We welcome new charters, as well as established charters to submit.

Judgement Process:

Judgement of these files will be concise to the minutiae.
Be prepared to make edits and revisions to your files. Be prepared, also, to explain the decisions you have made in your submission(s) if asked. You should be able to point to purposeful patterning moves, motifs, PR choices, expressive elements, contextual understandings, and the like when necessary. If you cannot explain your chart to us, do not bother submitting said chart. Modcharts will be rejected.
Judgement of these files will be done 10 at a time on a first come, first served basis. Judgement rounds will continue until our goals are met. The judgement status of charts will be as follows: Accepted, Rejected, Rejected Until Revised, and Pending Review. Take note of the wording of Rejected Until Revised.

Time Frame:

As for most good things, the time frame for the completion of this pack is loose, but, to ensure that a healthy motivation for submitters is maintained, we have set a working goal of 6 months to accomplish what we hope to for this pack.

Final Thoughts and Comments:

The organizer and judges for this pack all have years of experience in charting and in pack organization–putting together some of the most popular and widely played packs in the game. We hope to use our combined influence and knowledge to bring Etterna a pack that is truly of a deserving quality. We look forward to reviewing your submissions.

I posed the question to the other judges. It wasn’t something we discussed together because it’s rare to have people releasing singles these days.

I’ll let you know what we decide when we have the conversation and edit OP.

EDIT: Singles are fine as long as they are not in other packs. (hence single but lol) No re-releases are allowed unless it’s a v2 and that v2 is significantly different.

Does FFR itself count as an "other pack?"

I'll probably try to make something for this

FFR files can be submitted if you feel strongly enough about them.

Is there a desired syntax for folder names, e.g. stepartist name in parentheses/brackets, song title first or last?

Just for clarification: Approved means that it is a candidate and will undergo more reviews later on, it is not accepted outright as of yet.

[James May]

Fire.

We are just waiting on a couple of judges to finish up their reviews. We will be posting round 2 within a few days, seemingly.

Thanks for your subs.

[Ghost_Medley]

Got multiple to send, but I'm gonna go one at a time since I got time to focus on feedback one at a time.

[Wayward Vagabond]

One at a time is best, because we are already falling behind a bit!

[baq12]

Good thing I started charting again. I have a couple that I'll be sending over soon ish.
