I suppose there could be a single forum post requirement, but it would be rather pointless because: Oh look, a one post requirement *posts* *registers 1 minute later* Although it is nice when people post in the forums, it probably shouldn't be a requirement. If a unique song requirement was put in place, it would take care of rather new and unable to be properly assessed accounts entering tournaments and sandbagging etc. Chances are that if they play SM or KBO and start off skilled they will post in the forums anyway for one reason or another. EDIT: Apparently raw scoring level stats are NOT changed when someone's hacked score was removed / blacklisted as seen in the death piano level stats page, or this hilarious Excite Bike raw level stats page. This should probably be fixed by the admins, considering the raw level stats page is worthless if the leader boards consist of every hacker who ever recorded a score on the song.

Re: FFR Suggestions
Oh alright, as long as the issue has been noticed and will be fixed in the future that's fine.

Re: FFR Suggestions
seconded. also an option to remove displayed songs in the songs tab based on the new difficulty system. doesnt really help to remove the 1-20s when that's all braindead easy songs with the new system.

Re: FFR Suggestions
I'd love to see an extended regional ranking. I am #251, so it's not likely to see myself on the Top 10 anytime soon.
Click "See More" and you come to a page like Top 100 AAAs, where it displays their rank, name and average rank to four decimal places. Maybe 100 people displayed per page. |

Re: FFR Suggestions
Suggestion: Disable and remove "will you marry me" from being a token, it is unnecessary. Was fine for the moment, but keeping it doesnt make sense. You are no more special than anyone else that there needs to be a token limited to only two people (three seeing that you two apparently got married to stavie as well). Save the swf to your computer for your own personal use, but there is no point having a token that can't be unlocked being flaunted on the tokens page.

Re: FFR Suggestions
Credit cap seems to be removed, according to what I've heard from a few people.

Re: FFR Suggestions
Cool beans, 120 is at least a lot better than say, 60. Just robbery at that level... By the way is that just for your engine, or both? I'm assuming both but I could've sworn your last update to the credit cap was just yours.

Credits given are server sided, so all game engines.

Re: FFR Suggestions
120 credits now? Nice, not even sure what song you could play to get that amount on the engine!
Feels good to get deserved credits on longer songs:

Re: FFR Suggestions
I think that when you load an FFR Replay and hit "view with replay settings", that all the settings they used should transfer over to the replay. I was playing around with the effects and note-skins to see how decent my scores would be, but when I decided to save a replay none of these things show. For example, here is the Going on Spring Wind replay I saved with tornado active:
Considering that it is registered by the replay, I assumed it would use the effect when I watched it with the replay's settings, but this is not the case. I can understand if the replay was viewed with my settings, but from the replay's settings I feel that the effect should appear. It would also be nice if note-skin choices were saved, so attempts with unconventional options (like letters) would be seen when a replay is viewed.

Re: FFR Suggestions
it'd be cool if you could toggle display of your token level stats average rank on your profile so people that want to whore ranks on those songs can show off, while not obligating anyone else to do it.

Re: FFR Suggestions
Remove all 90+ files from avrank calculations.
No, I'm not kidding. I think this would make FFR a lot more fun for everyone. Let's face it: for all but the very highest players (as in, high D6), ranks on those songs don't reflect skill at all. In fact, ranks basically reflect mashing ability, which we really shouldn't be valuing. Plus, to be honest, most of those files suck for scoring anyway. So by removing them we would make the average rank more useful, without having to make tons of tokens or take files out of the game. Also, the really top players would be able to get a perfect 1.0 avrank without having to worry about really dumb charts like Crowdpleaser and RATO. 90+ files, even the public ones, would be more or less "just for fun".

Re: FFR Suggestions
Pros:
- Most files in the 90+ range are really unfun to play in general and terrible for scoring from FFR's current file selection. This removes files like Husigi, WWE, Crowdpleaser, RATO, Revolutionary Etude, and so on. - Encourages less mashing and better file quality for 1-89, since those are the ones that would matter most with the removal of 90+ from avrank calculations. - No need to make a lot of tokens. Metro for instance was intended to be a token from its difficulty. Cons: - My DP 8-0-0-1, Revolutionary Etude AAA and RATO 23-1-0-3 don't mean anything. Oh wait, nobody gives a shit about those files. |

Re: FFR Suggestions
I'd rather see legacy songs removed from ranks to be honest
I feel as if just because most of us don't care for them doesn't mean we should neglect them. There are players like Halogen, Luis and Dossar who work hard to score on them and it'd be less worth while to do so if they were removed. But I mean if they're alright with the change why not I suppose. (By they I meant a majority of d6+ ect.) |
