Time Warp – “Let Me Be Your Pirate” Re-Added into the Game!
Whoa, a blast from the past! The song “Let Me Be Your Pirate”, created by DrugstoreCowboy, has been re-added to the song list! I think you’ll all remember this old tune when you play it one more time! The high-scores for the song have been kept too, so there is no need to worry about re-AAAing it if you don’t want to play it (why wouldn’t you want to though?)!
The song is a Difficulty 7 file, with a song length of 2:00 flat and a short 593 notes, stepped by hi19hi19.
It’s located in the Funk genre, so go play it! What are you waiting for?
Cheers and have a good time FFRing,
Netjet! And the awesomely awesome FFR Staff
The 5th Official Photo Hunt Has Started!
For you prospective photo scavengers who have been ever so patiently waiting to display beautiful pictures of roadkill licking, mannequin manipulation, and/or your rendition of how a homeless person should act: your time has come now.
While you may not be taking pictures of the extreme (yet…), it is still worth nothing that the fifth official Photo Scavenger Hunt released the first round objectives today, at 2 PM server time. The structure of the contest has changed dramatically, using week long rounds rather than just nailing everything in a single shot. With three more rounds in the future, there’s plenty of laughs and insanity to come.
If you’re looking to have some safe for work fun with a camera, drop in The 5th Official FFR Photo Scavenger Hunt thread and take a stab at the requirements. You have nothing but your dignity to lose.

Thanks to the ~magical~ development team of FFR, you can now take a peek at who’s roaming in Profile Chat without having to take thirty precious seconds out of your day to step in the chat room. Pretty cool, eh? Take a look at the left sidebar while on a non-forum/non-profile page to see the user list, and what each member’s user-group is.
Tier points are changing here on FFR. Thanks to qqwref, 10+ tier points can now be added to all songs. There will also be new requirements that will include some more lower level user friendly songs. Keep up to date with the tier point changes by following this thread here.
What uses a mouse and spins? That’s right, Spin It Up is making a return to FFR. You can help beta test it by playing and reporting any bugs you find here.
Mannequin? Rat-burgers? That’s right – it’s back! The 5th Official Photo Hunt has been announced and will be starting Oct. 2nd. Get your cameras ready and keep your eyes on this thread for some good laughs!

New Tier Point system in progress
Over the years, the Tier Point system has been revised many times in an effort to make it more accurate and more fair. There is still work to be done, though, especially in tracking the skills of more casual players. But now, a group of dedicated FFR users have started working on the end-all version, fixing all of the problems of the old one! And they want YOU to get involved!
Long-time FFR players i love you, qqwref, and DossarLX have come together to work on the perfect Tier Point system. It will remove most of the incentive to mash, track all the skill levels from FCing Difficult files to AAAing For Gurus Only ones, and be as fair as possible. They want the community to help tell them which 7-10 difficulty songs should be included into this new system! Further details will be explained in the community section of this thread.
Of course, you can feel free to give these guys upvotes, comments, PMs, IMs, and/or any other type of thanks!

5th Official FFR Photo Scavenger Hunt!
That’s right, you heard us, it’s here! The fifth official FFR photo scavenger hunt has arrived. If you’ve never heard of this before, you probably don’t browse the forums or haven’t been around since Tasselfoot’s departure in 2009. We haven’t had a photo scavenger hunt since then, but they were always a big hit with a lot of the community. That being said, we’re looking forward to an interesting and fierce competition this year for the photo hunt! Details can be found in this thread, and we hope to see you guys around! Literally!
Cheers,
psychoangel691, justin_ator, and the FFR Staff
FFR STANDALONE!
Edit: It has been pointed out that our resident forum moderator Kayla, has long since had a reference and guide for the use of the stand alone system. Her contributions to the new guide have been essential, and the post has been improved dramatically as a consequence. Please thank psycho for her previous work, and for putting up with no one knowing it existed. A simultaneous ‘apologies’ and ‘thank you’ from the devs.
For the past forever people have been experiencing some form of lag or another while playing our beloved game. A solution to this problem has long since been found. What is it? The stand alone system! It has been documented, posted, reposted, reposted, reposted, and reposted over the past i-can’t-even-remember-how-long, but not once afaik has a thread been made. Until Today!
Put your hands together for justin_ator! The brave soul has pieced together a guide for you and your ffr-running-inept computer. Feel free to upvote, comment, pm, and/or thank him in some way!
Thank you, justin_ator. We love you.
