If so, fuck, I'm stepping something today

You are correct. Open until 11:59 PM server time that night.

That note on b159/62.84s doesn't even have a drum sound to it.

Make sense now?

*nodnod* I was aware of that; but my reasoning involves the violin sound that's just on every fourth (and isn't the melody). It just so happens that the percussion covers every fourth, too. It's just this one beat where the violin fourth plays but the percussion doesn't. So leaving the arrow at b159 doesn't feel like it's inconsistent.

If that's not convincing, it's okay if you don't want to remove those 12ths. With everything else good, your file will definitely get queued next time.

I see what you mean now.

This look a little better? Didn't really want to make it a single note :P

Thanks for all the help btw.

Sent it in. I was getting anxious :P

**MarioNintendo** · 02-2-2011, 03:50 PM

Sent 4 files. Hopefully, Bmah and Jimerax won't cut my head off for flooding their inbox... :S

Honest question: why is there a submission cap?

To prevent a shit load of shitty files from new steppers.

Judges need a break

you can send multiple files in a single e-mail.

They will tell you that haha.

How many could there possibly be though? I'd rather judge a few extra files to grab the loyalty of a bunch of new players engaged with FFR than hold a carrot 100 feet in front of them.

(sorry about the brackets; FFR doesn't add quote trees so I added it to show the context)

I never really cared enough for the submission cap since I only step like 2 files a year.

Haha, I did.

However, I sent one email without attachment and another one with outdated files that had no chance of getting in. So that makes three with the one I just sent.

**kommisar** · 02-2-2011, 04:41 PM

I guess the better you step files, the more privileged you are on ffr. It's sort of an oligarchic system where the elite have more power towards files or something lmao.

but yeah i don't feel like judging 30948230 files from one person that doesn't know how to step a file well. if they send 1-2 at a time, we can give that person input and they can build from there.

cedolad · 02-2-2011, 04:47 PM

Constructive criticism versus flaming.

**NocturneAunamic** · 02-2-2011, 05:50 PM

ok i just sent in my file today. i might send in another one if i get around to it.

Arch0wl · 02-2-2011, 06:44 PM

I just don't think you'd see that many files with the fact that they need to have song permissions. The idea that terrible sim authors would submit a ton of files seems possible at first, but when I consider that most new charters step songs that are not even close to music on the FFR permissions list I don't think this would be a concern. Having to limit your music choice is a turn-off for most people.

**championanwar** · 02-2-2011, 06:52 PM

Sent files in.

**Plan_Bsk81127** · 02-2-2011, 06:58 PM

I dont have any files to send in this batch, gg at me being too lazy to step something. XD

-Barista- · 02-2-2011, 07:30 PM

Wait. . . we can put stops in songs now? When did this start?

**bmah** · 02-2-2011, 07:52 PM

Stops won't affect gameplay in FFR, but you can use them if you feel compelled to do so.

What you cannot use however are negative BPMs.
