StepCon 2023
Welcome to the Official FFR StepCon. What is a stepcon you might ask? It’s a Simfile-creating contest open to Steppers, Mappers, Charters, Simfile Artists and Stepauthors of all skill levels and styles. *all times listed are servertime* The Second Public Voting Period has Ended! Here's the results for the Final Round: 1st - basicdrummerman (4) 2nd - jh05013 (3) 3rd - WirryWoo (1) Thank you so much to all of our finalists that participated and put their best foot forward to approach the file for this year's Finals! It is not easy to overcome a song that might not be advantageous for you and still provide quality that a majority likes. I will be rewarding extra prizes and rewards from the Final StepOff shortly to those that have earned them, and updating badges to reflect the Final StepOff results. I sincerely hope to be able to continue this event next year! But with that, it will draw this year's StepCon to a close. Thank you again as well to everyone that participated in the first round, and those that voted for their favorites throughout StepCon! On a very specific note to basicdrummerman, similarly to the previous round, you will have 1 week to submit any fixes needed for your file, and then it will take another week to move the file through the batch process for difficulty rating before it ultimately sees a release in the Songs of the Week of November 25th. And, congratulations on the win! Participants and voters are now open & free to talk about which file is theirs in-order on the StepCon 2023 engine (if they prefer), and talk about which specific songs they voted for (again, if they prefer). Some clarifications/rules: -After sign-ups are finished, you will receive a Direct Message on FFR of which group you are in, along with a .zip file of everything you need to participate within your Class. -After Direct Messages go out to all sign-ups (thread will be bumped with notification as such), you may swap Classes with another person in a different Class, but this can only be done ONCE between BOTH people involved, and may only happen within the first week (cutoff will be 11:59pm, October 7th 2023). If you are unable to obtain the original .zip provided for that Class after both people agreeing to a swap, contact me (gold stinger on FFR, Goldstinger#8592 on Discord). -You ARE ALLOWED to make cuts and edits to any song during the StepCon. -You MAY NOT collaborate with another Stepartist/Simfiler/sign-up/out-of-tournament individual. -Submissions should meet Submission Rules requirements (listed here: https://www.flashflashrevolution.com...d.php?t=145458 ) -You ARE NOT allowed to solicit votes or reveal information regarding which submission is yours during the public voting process. Doing so will result in immediate disqualification and ban from future StepCon's. -As a participant, you MAY NOT vote during public voting within your own Class. YOU MAY vote in any other Classes of which you are not directly participating in. -Songs submitted to the 'StepCon 2023' Batch that are not part of this event will be automatically rejected. Please don't submit random songs to it. Spamming the batch may result in disciplinary action. -Treat your fellow participants and public voters with kindness. Actively putting down someone's submissions or anonymously calling people's submissions "shit" is a good way to get yourself disqualified as a participant, and banned from public voting. Feedback & Criticism is welcome during the public voting periods, but do so in moderation with respect to newer Stepauthors. -I think it goes without saying, but please DO NOT CHEAT OR ATTEMPT TO CIRCUMVENT THESE RULES. Doing so may result in disqualification from the current StepCon and ban from future events and StepCons. Added clarifications: -Class placement is purely randomized. You will have a week to swap with another player (if willing) on the case RNG doesn't go your way, but notably this will not be an option for participants that reach the Final StepOff. -All metadata, Simfile properties, and sync will be provided before-hand in the .sm file you receive during this event. You are more than welcome to change any of it to however you see fit, this is just to make the event more approachable for new Stepartists. (This includes but not limited to BPM changes, Signature changes, Colorization, etc.) -Judges reserve the right to reject a winning file from going in-game due to incompleteness of a file in extreme situations (such-as, a joke dump file, only half of the file done and silence for the other half, 0/10-worthy files after judgment, etc.) -1st Place Class Winners will get 1 week to submit any fixes they would like from feedback on their submission after voting results, and then song will take another week for Difficulty Consultants and finalizing for release for a total of 2 weeks between end of voting and release. Otherwise, songs submitted and processed this way will we be done so under the Batch "Accepted" status. For more information, please refer to 'Ratings and Status' in the Submission Guidelines.
