Your forgetting songs like that won't be in the game, read arch's psot, onmly the finsest songs will be, all checked to be onbeat, and they'll all have the correct ratings...im guessing for this game we wouldn't evenm use a 1-10 foot rating, it's be like 1-20, cus that more accurate...and songs that are 19/20 songs would be the ones that we play...nima...

The ratings in this game would be on a number scale of 1-50. If the SM team agreed to do something like this, it wouldn't be too hard to change. For instance, blur would be the game's only 50 (though I wouldn't use double jackhammers, I'd use regular jackhammers to make it an actual possible song), and something like mario would be a 6. As for stepfile authors, it'd probably be someone like Cynic, since he's the only other keyboard author who is as anal about syncing as I am.

Besides, there would be a crack team of staff looking out for people who cheat since this would be an english game, and it's not hard to find out if someone cheats or not.

that sounds like go-gaia a lil bit, but its a really really good idea.

If we had a 1-50 foot scale, Badger Oni would actually fit at 42 feet. XD I just typed in a random difficulty number when I made it, actually...

This is the best idea that I've ever heard. Seriously act on this one, Arch... If you don't, I think all of us will end up regretting it later.

or someone else will steal the idea...don't you need to get a copyright or patent or whatever its called

vvolkov0073 · 01-15-2004, 06:42 PM

Stick this at the bottom of your post, fast :O. Great idea BTW,

Arch0wl · 01-16-2004, 01:26 AM

If someone steals my idea, that just means they will do it, and that's a good thing. I'm not going to stick a copyright symbol when It's not even copyrighted, and I'm not about to spend 200 dollars to patent, copyright, or trademark it either.

Quickly, about what you said in response to my idea, Arch:

I understand you need a replay factor, but this is Stepmania. There aren't that many varied elements in playing Stepmania.

Oh, and people still think you can just throw a copyright symbol on something and then think they could sue for someone "stealing." Funny funny.

Arch0wl · 01-16-2004, 06:57 AM

Yes, but without this it would just be stepmania online with a room list and that's boring. I would'nt play that often, besides, a lot of people play with pads anyways and this would be everyone on a keyboard.

Privateer · 01-16-2004, 07:02 AM

I guess most would prefer a deeper system. I would enjoy it, but keeping it simple is definitely what I would like more.

Id be willing to help with graphics, and possibly net coding.
