Sunlight comes a month early, in Making April – #56 and special
{Sunlight} is today’s 1st skill token release. A light mix by cornandbeans, I’m pretty sure it is from some pop/rock song that I’ve heard, but I can’t place which. Stepfile is MeaCulpa‘s first, and I like it. Mixes 8ths with 12ths with 16ths and a few 24th bursts. Good job at keeping an almost 4 minute long song interesting and not repetitive. The unlock for this is something that a LOT of people have brought up to me as a good token req (and one I’ve had in mind since before skill tokens existed). You may say this is an anti-skill token, but I beg to differ. This is not a skill or an anti-skill token. It is a straight MASH token. It is a skill-less token. Get 1200+ boos on Silence while still passing to unlock. I recommend the quadmash, although the alternating double mash works best if your keyboard can’t register more than 2 keys at a time. Shouldn’t be that hard to get 1400+, IMO. I’ve done it a few times myself.
In other news, I’m sure you ALL have checked out Making April’s new snazzy custom Embedded FFR Player on their myspace. And I know you guys have been anxious to play these files on FFR as well. Well, starting today, you can. There are a total of 6 files of Making April’s that will be released over the next 3 days (3 versions of Driveway, 2 of Roses and Butterflies, and 1 of Jump In). Today we’ll release the Standard version of Driveway, stepfile by SulferDragon and later today we’ll release the Heavy version of Roses and Butterflies, stepfile by Neonatrias. All 6 will be found in Rock.
Check back later today for the 2nd of today’s releases. And consider the Making April releases as my apology for not getting Planetz and Love Cheat! out yesterday.
-Tass
EDIT: I’d like to make it known that while I feel that {Sunlight} does in fact sound similar to some song that I can’t place, I have been informed by cornandbeans that it is quite original and not a mix of anything.

Posted at 2:23pm on July 22nd, 2007
That anti-skill token sounds do-able for me. Silence is my worst rank’d song afterall.

Posted at 2:46pm on July 22nd, 2007
ranked 3rd on sunlight
pretty easy file i got 15 goods
im sure i can get SDG but pretty good for my first run
Posted at 2:47pm on July 22nd, 2007
Feels so cheap though.. Silence is no longer my worst ranked song because of this skill token, that aint right.
Posted at 2:48pm on July 22nd, 2007
Got it with 1222 boos, pretty easy actually. Took me a few tries, got so close almost every time.
Posted at 2:54pm on July 22nd, 2007
1179 boos.
Posted at 2:55pm on July 22nd, 2007
Dang!!!! I was doing so good on Sunlight and my cat walked on my laptop, now I can’t even get all the arrows.
Posted at 2:58pm on July 22nd, 2007
Honostly, this req is the worst one yet. it takes no “skill” what so ever to get boos, therefore this shouldnt be called a “skill token”. Id much rather this be AAA silence, something id never be able to do, over getting boos because AAA silence takes “skill”. Boos dont, IMO
Posted at 3:00pm on July 22nd, 2007
sunlight was an easy requirement IMO so im not complaining =]
Posted at 3:01pm on July 22nd, 2007
Got it! 1219!
Posted at 3:02pm on July 22nd, 2007
I geuss I musnt be much of a masher at heart. I try to be skilled, no anti skilled.
Posted at 3:03pm on July 22nd, 2007
MrMagic5239, it does take skill. You have to get enough perfects to not lose while mashing to receiving boos while playing the song.
Posted at 3:06pm on July 22nd, 2007
We need one like this on EHHS. lol
Posted at 3:08pm on July 22nd, 2007
i cant wait to get my music on ffr
Posted at 3:10pm on July 22nd, 2007
w00t! … mashing skill! \m/
Posted at 3:10pm on July 22nd, 2007
Damn…got 1161 boos twice in a row…I’ll try again. V_V
Posted at 3:14pm on July 22nd, 2007
Im done trying on this, its worse then Starman, and we all know what a disaster that was. I cant beleave I spent 4 hours getting starman for an easy FC/SDG
Posted at 3:23pm on July 22nd, 2007
man i made 1195 boos twice with 800 combos lol
Posted at 3:25pm on July 22nd, 2007
I Give up. This is a Waste of time.
Posted at 3:26pm on July 22nd, 2007
I suck at getting boos. This is impossible…
Posted at 3:30pm on July 22nd, 2007
haha 1201 for me finally
Posted at 3:33pm on July 22nd, 2007
I just wasted my time getting this, I feel awful
Posted at 3:37pm on July 22nd, 2007

Posted at 3:38pm on July 22nd, 2007
*arms falls off* D: I can’t get it..-_- I can’t mash for life.
Posted at 3:44pm on July 22nd, 2007
…I can’t do this. My arm hurts halfway through the song. Can we have a token that doesn’t require immunity to RSI…?
Posted at 3:45pm on July 22nd, 2007
Oh, and that screaching “IIII AM FREEEEE” drives me insane as my arm is about to fall off…I swear I want to punch the computer out…gaahh…
Posted at 3:50pm on July 22nd, 2007
DAM!@!@!@!@ 1116 BOOS
Posted at 3:53pm on July 22nd, 2007
Making April is going to flood and ruin the rock genre.
What the fu**.
Posted at 3:58pm on July 22nd, 2007
Damn…got the 1200 boos but the score didn’t record. =( Oh well…it was fun getting it. XD
Posted at 4:04pm on July 22nd, 2007
EnR,
Thats exactly what I’ve been getting. lol.
Posted at 4:04pm on July 22nd, 2007
My hands arms like heck!
Posted at 4:04pm on July 22nd, 2007
Oops… I meant, my arms hurt like heck.
Posted at 4:06pm on July 22nd, 2007
1171 boos. Urgh…
Posted at 4:10pm on July 22nd, 2007
Yes! 1223 boos.
Posted at 4:18pm on July 22nd, 2007
Double setup quad mash arrow keys and num pad.
Posted at 4:32pm on July 22nd, 2007
I’ve tried quad mashing with num pad, all that ends up happening is the health bar goes down and down and down until I either stop and hit some arrows or just die. Doing it while hitting some arrows, hovering my health around the middle, I get about 60 boos off of the target 1200.
Posted at 4:33pm on July 22nd, 2007
excellent release the two new songs are really very enjoyable!! i think i can AAA the cornandbeans one thats something new for me
Posted at 4:41pm on July 22nd, 2007
expect the boo req lowered later… i didn’t realize that averages do NOT increase your lifebar anymore. not sure when that happened, but it’s now the case. so, that makes this much harder than i wanted it to be. In the old days, you could get 1400+ easily. Now, that’s impossible. I got 1214 1st try though.
Will be lowered to 1100 later.
Posted at 4:43pm on July 22nd, 2007
i got 1155 EXACTLY 3 TIMES IN A ROW
WTF?
Posted at 4:48pm on July 22nd, 2007
Oh, phew, thanks. *gives tass cookie*
Posted at 4:50pm on July 22nd, 2007
why so many different versions of one making april song, thats a lot.
Posted at 5:07pm on July 22nd, 2007
holy mashing masharoony
that was hard o.0

Posted at 5:13pm on July 22nd, 2007
i got 1258 boos and sunlight was very fun 12 goods and a miss for some reason on first run, also great token for it
Posted at 5:38pm on July 22nd, 2007
My wrists hurt, I’ve been off by 30-50 5 times now :\
Posted at 5:39pm on July 22nd, 2007
851 boos >_> wtf, mashing is retarded..L2play.
Posted at 6:15pm on July 22nd, 2007
haha but i got 1201
i thought it was a perfect requirement, i know two other people that got 1201 hahaha
double key mashing is the way to go
Posted at 6:42pm on July 22nd, 2007
940 boos… first try.
Posted at 6:50pm on July 22nd, 2007
every time i load the song ”silence” the screen freezes so i cant play the song at all(well for the time being)well guess i have to wait a while to play this 1
Posted at 6:55pm on July 22nd, 2007
tass not trying to be rude but thats bullshit i got 1116 boos when i needed 1200 now you lower it and i cant even get 1000 ….and im guessin u cant just give it to me since i rightfully got the 1100 …what ever ill get it sum other time but this is still bull
Posted at 7:08pm on July 22nd, 2007
Yeah Now i can’t even pass the F**king song. I’m really pissed off again. Time to take a break.
Posted at 7:09pm on July 22nd, 2007
My best is 1084.
-Sighs-
I can’t do it.
Maybe if it was lowered to 1000?
/wishful thinking
Posted at 7:15pm on July 22nd, 2007
What is with these strange portmanteaus of song titles?
Posted at 7:22pm on July 22nd, 2007
I can attempt to get it like once..then my arms are dead and I gotta play easier songs for a while until my arms are fine again..lol
My keyboard doesn’t allow quadmashing eithe, which is strange cause I got a sweet Eclipse 2 3 color changing keyboard >_>
Posted at 7:41pm on July 22nd, 2007
Why did you lower it? I got it before.
Posted at 8:05pm on July 22nd, 2007
all i whould do at the end hold down 2 keys
Posted at 8:05pm on July 22nd, 2007

Posted at 10:24pm on July 22nd, 2007
Sounds a lot like Speed of Sound by Coldplay.
Posted at 10:26pm on July 22nd, 2007
Dang, I managed to get 1120 boos or so when the requirement was 1200, now I can’t get higher than 1100
Posted at 10:44pm on July 22nd, 2007
FINALLY.

^-^
Posted at 10:44pm on July 22nd, 2007
Is it still 1200+ req? cause i got the token with 1105 boos, if it’s a glitch feel free to take away my token =P.. but i tried hard so scratch that thought

u_u; … stupid smileys, they chopped my message… wel anyway, as I said, now any amateur masher will be able to get this token x( … and btw, where’s the other skill token?! >_>
Posted at 11:17pm on July 22nd, 2007
1111 boos! Yay I got it
Posted at 11:32pm on July 22nd, 2007
Why’d you take it down to 1100 boos? It was way funner at 1200…
Posted at 11:33pm on July 22nd, 2007
FFR could give a FUCK about its players in the north east… the excuse “its only 9 here” is really fuckin old man
Posted at 11:33pm on July 22nd, 2007
Got just over 1000 boos.
My fingers arent moving fast enough. Although I am getting rediculous combos with quadramash
Posted at 11:38pm on July 22nd, 2007
AAAARRRGH I keep failing out now >:(
Posted at 11:41pm on July 22nd, 2007
man sk1mNskat3, they have a life outside of ffr. their life doesnt revolve around releasing tokens…
Posted at 11:45pm on July 22nd, 2007
actually, the 2nd token was coded about 3 hours ago. but something is wrong with it. and LD was running out the door as he did it. so he hasn’t been back.
i love how people are complaining and whatnot. seriously. not to mention, i only moved to PST 2 months ago…. before that, i was EST for 23 years.
Posted at 12:15am on July 23rd, 2007
1053, shit. I hate mashing.
Posted at 12:16am on July 23rd, 2007
Well. I’m tired. Today sucked, Time to go sleep.
Posted at 12:22am on July 23rd, 2007
Damn boos. I got 1043.
Posted at 12:31am on July 23rd, 2007
can’t seem to get this one. and tass, that is an original song. I’ve been listning to cornandbeans’ stuff for a while, seeing as he is such a NOTEABLE ARTIST.
Posted at 12:50am on July 23rd, 2007
lolololol
Posted at 12:58am on July 23rd, 2007
I had to get the 1200 one.
I don’t think we should of changed it.
1200 requires more skill.
Posted at 12:59am on July 23rd, 2007
1067, I’m getting there.
Posted at 1:05am on July 23rd, 2007
Fuck yeah, 1157. I got {Sunlight}. I’m going to go play my prize.
Posted at 1:06am on July 23rd, 2007
I love how people are complaining too. Seriously guys how DARE you complain that people arent doing their jobs.
Posted at 1:45am on July 23rd, 2007
The requirement is not that easy. I agree with 107, at least tass lowered the requirement for you to get it. If you want to complain about it, get a life or stop saying to change the requirement etc. This token isn’t that hard. Tass said it’s a mashing token so then mash to get it. Newbs will have a hard time gtting this token but who cares.
Stop complaining, if you don’t like the requirement or want Tass to change it, move on and forget about this skill token and never play it again if you have a problem with it. There are no errors in it so no one should complain.
Wow, 107′s comment made me type all this shit.

Posted at 10:11am on July 23rd, 2007

Hint: This token is very easy if you use AutoHotKey.

Ok..*gasp*…just got it…and it feels like my fingers are melting lol
Posted at 12:12pm on July 23rd, 2007
meaculpa: technically, that’s cheating.
Posted at 12:17pm on July 23rd, 2007
tass … how is that cheating … all hot key is doing is taking place of the arrows with other keys … ??
Posted at 12:18pm on July 23rd, 2007
I only got 1103 boos, phew that was close…
Posted at 12:38pm on July 23rd, 2007
Yeah…I don’t see how autohotkey will do much to help cheat. It can help change the arrows to a more comfortable key setting (we should actually have a set of options to change the arrow key buttons in ffr settings…)
Posted at 12:43pm on July 23rd, 2007
double setup -_-;
Posted at 1:04pm on July 23rd, 2007
whats going on with the tokens?
Posted at 1:16pm on July 23rd, 2007
It’s not only double set-up that may be considered cheating, but anyone who has had a little experience using auto-hotkey may know how to use it to cheat. I think remapping your letter keys to spread format is ok, but trust me, there are other methods that is considered cheating which I can not or will not release.
Posted at 1:55pm on July 23rd, 2007
i actually was playing with quad mash trying to see how many boos i could get on other songs before this was posted XD
i’m glad other people were thinking of it too ^_^
Posted at 5:26pm on July 23rd, 2007
Now that you mention it, using AHK for double-steup would make it a whole lot easier, but that wasn’t what I had in mind. I was thinking the same as pikadill, and I changed my settings to whatever keys were the easiest to mash with.
Posted at 11:11pm on July 23rd, 2007
First off, I’m posting this comment quite some time after the req. was lowered to 1100. I played Silence very recently, within a few hours. Here is a screenshot.
I obviously got over 1100, but….no Skill Token. =O?

Posted at 11:40pm on July 23rd, 2007
arm falling off like hell… OMG I SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO MASH THAT HIGH OF A COMBO WHEN I CAN’T GET THAT NORMALLY!!!! AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!
… 1183 boos…
so unfair
Posted at 9:44am on July 24th, 2007
If you got over 1100, it’s supposed to give it to you… They lowered the req. from 1200+.
Posted at 8:22am on July 25th, 2007
Hm. 1201 Boos. I (very) narrowly passed the old requirement, but passed the new one by quite a bit. Interesting how that works.
And only after I’d say… 30 consecutive attempts? Gosh, my wrist hurts now.
Posted at 4:41am on February 16th, 2014
