Gambling Hall Vanishes!

Hey guys.  Wanted to let you know that sometime between last night and right now, I noticed the gambling hall disappeared.  We’re investigating heavily to find out what happened…  and the internet police have been called in.  We’re afraid of an abduction or possible robbery.  No ransom call has been made yet, but we fear it’ll come at any time.  So say a prayer for the gambling hall, that it may be returned to us safely and quickly.

Also, expect to see some more tweaks, fixes, and updates over the next week or two.  lightdarkness is back on the scene for php work and NSane is lending a hand for all things flash (even his tatas!).

Things should get exciting!  If you have any suggestions for bug fixes or site/game updates…  post them in the comments.

Memorial Day Special Release & Random Updates

I figured we hadn’t done a special release in a while…  so I wanted to do something for you guys.  Enter Ievan Polkka, by Otomania, quite possibly the catchiest song ever.  It may sound familiar, as Pretty Green Onions is a mix of the same song.  IMO, it’s a Low FMO…  the jumpjacks with 3-framers are JUST enough to make it not be VC, but I’m willing to listen to other opinions.  Mad props to my main man jimerax for this awesomely fun chart that you will won’t be able to stop playing.  Oh yeah…  it’s on Page 1 of Dance2 for easy access.

In other news, I haven’t forgotten about all of you.  Don’t think that I have.  :(.  The P4U fix that resulted in the chart being offsync is being worked on again, and should be sync’d by the time you read this.  Also, I like cake.

Oh yeah…  if you care about the batch, notes should be up tomorrow.  Maybe I’ll even be nice enough to unlock the discussion thread.

Server Issues on Forum

Hey guys,

We’re aware of the forum issues going on intermittently. We should have everything fixed soon.

edit: Should be fixed!

Very, Very Old Bug Now Fixed!

A small one, but a very old one… dating way back to 2003. We all love the cute little dancing white thing in the background video for Party 4 U v2, but sadly the music wouldn’t play when you went to try it again (and the notes would lag). This has been fixed! Big thanks to NSane for the assistance on the fix. No more P4U bug! Yay!

Put the Retrigger on the Bong-Ra and hide the children

Bong-Ra:
Bong-Ra, Jason Köhnen’s electronic alter ego saw life in 1996. Hailing form The Netherlands, Bong-Ra initially started as a dj, but quickly focused his priority on producing his own music in 1997. Since then he has set up two record labels and released well over 40 albums on many record labels (including Cock Rock Disco.) His latest release, the Vitus Blister EP, features the song many of you have probably grown to love, Nomina Nuda Tenemus, which was released a week or so ago and was stepped by here. It’s either an FMO or FGO, there seems to be a lot of disagreement about the actual difficulty [it's just jumpstream, right? ].

Retrigger:
Retrigger is an electronic musician from Brazil, also known as Raul Costa, who has been producing hard and experimental music since the year of 2001. He has released tracks in labels from different countries, in 5 different continents. His sounds range from breakcore to 60s psychedelia, from punk to funk, from garage rock to hip hop or anything he’s listening at the time, mostly sounding like all of those at the same time. Just last week, resident stepfiler and FFR stepfile judge kommisar[os]‘s file for Jeanie and Caroline became public and it’s an FMO focusing on Retrigger’s wonderful drums. Check out his website for free music and keep an eye for a release on Cock Rock Disco.

Hope you all enjoy the new breakcore!

Kyle Ward – Best of FFR Compilation Album and Tell v3 Support Token!

So, have you always wanted your favorite KaW songs from ITG or FFR to listen to anywhere?  Now is your chance!  We’ve worked with Kyle and his partner at SCI Recordings John Mendenhall to bring you this Best-Of album.  Put together by yours truly, this album features 12 of your favorite songs across all of Kyle’s aliases AND 2 bonus tracks from Kyle and John’s duo effort, Oscillator-X.  All yours for $8.99.

Track list:
Banzai – Anubis
Banzai – Zodiac
Inspector K – Disconnected
Inspector K – Infection
Inspector K – Tension
KaW – Kagami
KaW – Take Me Back
KaW vs Smiley vs Inspector K – Duality
K-Bit – Robotix
Smiley – Delirium
Smiley – Destiny
Symphonious – Tell (Extended Mix)
Oscillator-X – Dance All Night
Oscillator-X – Style On My Speed Dial

And, of course, there is a support token attached to this album as well. Way back when, dore created a chart for Symphonious’s Tell for our Easy Skill Token event. The masses spoke and wanted something harder… so Tell v2 came about. But many users were used to the jacktacular Guillaume Tell chart for SM and wanted something similar in FFR. THAT is what this file is. A For Guru’s Only Tell v3 chart, a full minute longer than the previous 2. This file is full of insanely fast jacks. Have fun with it.

Purchase the album now! To activate the token and download your purchase, go to this page.

edit: Oh yes…  I forgot to add…  if anyone AAAs this on video (showing hands and screen, sound taps, etc), I’ll cover the cost of the album and throw in some other stuff as well.  My personal challenge of saying this will never be AAAd.

Wed morn edit: Mad props to adamaja456, bballa48, bluguerrilla, card man, funmonkey54, norsegod666 for buying the album so far.  You should not feel jealous and sad that you didn’t buy it yet and therefore don’t get your name on the front page.

Profile Backgrounds

So, in December, the backgrounds for profiles were not behaving correctly.  This was fixed about 2 weeks ago, although we never formally announced it.  Now we have.  Enjoy the fix, my little FFRspacers.
