The FFR Happy-Meal Bonanza Contest

Posted in Spontaneous Contests on January 24th, 2008106 Comments »

The contest is over and all of the entries have been reviewed! Unfortunately, I removed all entries that depict violence toward nestlekwik and all users who yearned for Tass to ride nestlekwik were disqualified, so nobody won today’s contest … Just kidding.

The powers that be have chosen Sir_Thomas’s contest entry as the winner of the contest. We’ll be contacting you to receive your information for the prize. Every one did a great job and it’s great to know so many people are eager to embarass me. We’ve re-opened the thread in the case people wish to post more on their own time (and so they can check out Xelius’s Ahn0ld entry).

Thanks for staying up with FFR and keep checking back for more news and contests!

Posted in Spontaneous Contests on January 23rd, 2008524 Comments »

I told you guys I would be back to bother you again tonight with an unexpected event right? Yeah, that’s right. And tonight everyone is a winner. No joke, everyone will walk away a winner. To participate in this giveaway is a breeze. The catch is that it will only last 15 minutes.

Giveaway starts NAAOOOWW!

During the next 15 minutes, for each legitimate comment you leave on another user’s wall in their profile, you will earn 1 credit. Leave 200 comments and you will have 200 extra FFR credits. I told you everyone would win! :)

Have fun!

*Comments are being sent left and right. This is insane.*

*Woa! Ok, time is up! You guys damn near brought the server to a half with your super ‘post’ button pressing abilities*

Tomorrow night we will run something even more odd. This time for cold hard electronic paypal cash. See you then. What time? 8pm Central b*tches.

Cheers,

Synthlight + his super pants

I know what all you peeps are thinking. You are thinking that I am some kind of bot, some kind of script that is controlled by the armpit stank of Mr. Tass.

This is not true…. And… to prove it, I am going to go all Spontaneous Giveaway tomorrow night at 8pm Central (6pm Pacific and 9pm Eastern). You will love it, you will cherish it and you will get fat sitting at your computer waiting to receive the goods.

See you tomorrow night, llamas.

Cheers,
Synthlight + his minions

(oh yeah, Happy MLK. Long live BDP)

MLK Day Special

Posted in Flash Flash Revolution on January 21st, 200815 Comments »

I hope everyone has had a good day off from school, for those in Middle or High School…  and I hope all the College guys and girls are looking forward to a new semester starting up tomorrow.  As a little present before things start getting hectic again, I thought I’d give everyone a public song.  ROAR (Rage Mix) is a really really catchy techno tune by Dr 1010, and is stepped by SulferDragon.  It has some nice bursts at 180bpm, so I rated it a high 8.  Shouldn’t be that big of a deal to FC or AAA.  It is currently located at the beginning of Dance 2.

There is also a new subscriber song on page 3 of Funk, stepped by jimerax.  You can thank Smartdude1212 for nagging me constantly about that.  :)

New Staff! Congratulate them NAO!

Posted in FFR News, Flash Flash Revolution on January 19th, 2008184 Comments »

It’s been a long time since we’ve added anyone to the ranks of Super Moderator, and we felt that not only was it time to do so, but that there were 2 very obvious and deserving candidates. Their dedication to the site can not be put into words. That and I’m feeling a bit lazy with my praise at the moment. So, show some spirit for DrugstoreCowboy and devonin, our 2 newest Super Mods!

Also given some cool new powers is Sprite- (which some of you have noticed already over the past few days)! He’s been made a MP Mod, as well as given forum mod powers over the FFR Related forums (General, Brag Board, etc). Drugstore has also been given MP powers, because just like Noah, we have to do everything in pairs.

Finally… we’ve created a new subforum, for school-related assistance. It’s our Homework & General Information subforum, located within Critical Thinking. Check it out here, and make sure to read the specific rules for the forum here. It is NOT a place for others to do your homework for you… it IS a place to ask for general assistance on how to go about doing a type of problem or assignment. Basically, it will follow the adage, “Give a man a fish, and he’ll eat for a day. Teach a man how to fish, and he’ll eat for a lifetime.” We will be strict in enforcing rules within this forum, at a CT level.

So, once again, say congrats to Drugstore, Devonin, and Sprite! Thanks for all the help so far guys, and keep up the good work!

Saturday Spin Addition: SIU Goes Loony

Posted in Song of the Week, SpinItUp on January 19th, 200813 Comments »

As promised, Professor K is back and we’re chalking up one more for the Spin It Up players.

Today’s addition marks dBu’s entry into the game with the song The Lunatic Princess now available for playing. MixMaster gives us a fairly busy spin file full of movement, which you can find located in the difficulty 5 category.

You’ll find a fresh new spin file a few days away as the next Spin It Up addition will hit the game on Tuesday, Jan. 22. Until then, enjoy the game and feel free to participate in the official Spin It Up forum.

Tuesday Spin Addition: Spin to DM

Posted in Song of the Week, SpinItUp on January 15th, 200815 Comments »

Spin it Up fans will now find their Tuesday spinfile addition has been made after digging deep into the queue.

Inside difficulty level 5, you will now find DM Ashura’s Dies Irae available for play. The MixMasterLar spinfile will keep your mice busy with a couple of cyclone (is this an official term? Well, it is now – multiple spin rotations in succession) sections to break up the busy streams that follow the song’s synth parts.

Since we’re back on schedule, the next song addition will be made on Saturday, so until then, enjoy the game, check out the multiplayer and visit us in the official Spin It Up forums.

Saturday Spin Addition: Chipset Style

Posted in Song of the Week, SpinItUp on January 12th, 200817 Comments »

We’re back on the normal track this week with your Saturday Spin It Up song being added on … Saturday!

Today’s addition is a nice level 3 difficulty ditty brought to us by Rushjet1. Final Boss Theme is a chipset piece, reminiscent of the 8-scores we all used to enjoy on our NES systems. The song’s spinfile is brought to us by a new face, none other than ElectricWerewolf, and features streams of waves while mixing up some spin patterns during the song’s transitions.

We’d like to again remind everyone that Spin It Up’s multiplayer is functional after some holiday downtime, so don’t be shy and make your way out there! Also, as always, please feel free to leave comments, questions or even find out how to contribute to the game in the official Spin It Up forums.
