In Need Of Event Ideas
Posted on: May 7, 2008, at 02:33:23pm

So, I want to have a queue-clearing event sometime within the next 6-8 weeks. Figure for it to last up to 4 weeks and to have up to 60-70 songs used.

I just need ideas for the excuse to do this event. I have a few of my own, but I'd like some input. And no, I will NOT be doing a completely token or skill token event. Plan for most of these to be public songs, but some can/will be token/skill.


Also, I've just confirmed with Sprite... expect the next official tournament to begin in early June. This is your first official announcement of the 4th official tournament. :)

-Tass

  1. cool

  2. Aweosme :D ! Excited

  3. o rofl, pressed under to fast.
    Hehe, Canada day event :D

  4. Even idea, since school is starting to end for many counties around the U.S. and other places I really don't know. Make something about that.I have less than 12 1/2 days left of school btw.

  5. Sounds awesome

  6. You should just have a one month extravaganza where you just toss out 2 or 3 songs a day.

  7. dan: that is likely what will happen. but i'd like to have some kind of theme to it. and i've considered end of school... seems a bit overused and cheesy.

  8. Start of summer? Start of hot and sticky days?

  9. Start of winter in Brazil?

  10. Say what? Tournament time during testing season... hell no. Damn, vROFL will have to wait til next time. Meh, I probably don't stand a chance anyway.
    Ideas: 1000th Song Release Event
    I don't see why not. Too cliche or boring?

  11. Files gone wild :)

  12. testing season? sorry... it's summer in the US. schools all are out. best time to run a tournament.
    And for 1000th songID.... nah, because that's only 10 away. Would want it to end on #1000. And we're too far away from 600 public songs or 700 total songs.

  13. how about a super "there is no point to this event" event.

  14. I think it should be summer themed. what about ice cream? a flavor for everyday? just trying to help brainstorm

  15. Summerfest 2008 xD

  16. Jasonkey the mountain man comes down from his cave up top FFR mountain once a year to spread joy to the village of FFR. In the form of songs? Just in time for summer. (Gosh this is a lame idea)

  17. nice! and cant wait for the tournament =P

  18. How about having the event be like the christening of FFR's new look?

  19. Out with the old, in with the new; queue re-opening.

  20. Do we have enough variety to do new songs for each tournament round?

  21. Make up a new holiday, one that lasts as long as whatever event you're doing and culminates in the official tournament. You could do this yearly. You could include weird religious undertones (read: flying spaghetti monster or synth-worship) and make the songs hymns or sacrifices to the faith.

  22. FFRave Summer Event
    "Over 75 new songs that you can jam to!"

  23. Songs come out in Alphabetical order? xD But I want to enter the tournament this year.

  24. Event Titles:
    Queue-Clearing 2008
    Hog The Internet for FFR Month
    Mash Mash Revolution Month
    Cool, Refreshing Queue Releases
    V3 Release Queue-Clearing event

  25. Release a different difficulty each day?

  26. The Spring Cleaning Event. Seeing how its still spring, why not use that.

  27. Maybe its the FFRwalros' birthday. The Walros celebrates for an intire month.

  28. how about an author acceptance month where you accept a lot of new artist music.

  29. "Psychozerosk8er Presents: A reason for Tass to have an event."

  30. Does this mean we can start sending in songs lol?

  31. I say we have skill tokes but with a twist (hence they wont be called skill tokens) Some maybe more endurance tokens =)
    Say for example get through 10,000 arrows in a day or fc a song with one of the effects on it (like hidden arrows or x3 speed mod)
    Just a suggestion! =)

  32. I'm thinking everyday release 2 songs, and on weekends release 3 songs. Over 4 weeks, that's 68 songs. If you do 3 songs every day, and 4 songs on weekends, over 3 weeks thats 69 songs. If you release 3 songs everyday, thats 84 songs in 4 weeks. If you release 4 songs everyday, that's 84 songs in 3 weeks. Personally I think 3 songs everyday is the best way to go about this.

  33. btw skill token 100 has to be have all 99 skill tokens and then FC or AAA FGO or something really epic (Fc Crowdpleaser :))

  34. Tass' Super Awesome Kick Start of the Summer Amazing Song Release Extravaganza Lasting Approximately 4 Weeks!
    Yeah, idk.

  35. YAY! the Official Tournament Announcement!
    i waz JUST about to say that we have another Skill Token Month (b.c last July wuz like the funnest month ever). but i think we should release random songs at random times (in random quantities at a time) it'll be called THE RANDOM SONG RELEASE OF RANDOMNESS! i think that'll work! (it'll be for 4 weeks and it'll be rlly fun!) ppl will like that.

  36. Just as long as two regularly scheduled songs come along every week, go hard.

  37. For an entire month, use the following:
    # of songs to release | day
    ---------------------------
    3 - Monday
    2 - Tuesday
    2 - Wednesday
    2 - Thursday
    5 - Friday
    3 - Saturday
    3 - Sunday
    20 songs a week for a month, 80 songs total. Monday to kick off the week, Friday to end the week. Sat/Sun to keep the weekend going.
    As for a theme, no idea seems too good.
    Maybe "Flash your skills for new songs", bah

  38. How about a headline like "April Showers Bring May Songs"?

  39. THIS WAS MY IDEA

  40. how about, Tass is bored and wants to have a random event.

  41. The 1st Annual FFRFest.
    Prepare for an explosion of new levels.
    Prepare for new tokens to test your mental skill.
    Prepare to push yourself to the limit with new skill challenges.
    Most of all, prepare for the 4th FFR Tournament, where you can face off against other rhythm game gladiators for prizes and glory.
    Great music, good times, and FFR for all...only at the FFRFest.

  42. It dun matter to me, as long as a lot of the songs are FMO/FGO :)

  43. The Super Special Epileptic Orgasm of the Almighty, Third Cousin FOUR Times Removed, Tassel of Your Foot Lasting Approximately Four Straight Weeks In Which Many, Many Files Shall Be Released Only Under the Careful Consideration of an Extra-Ordinary Hopscotch Tournament Taking Place in the Playground Located in Berlin, Germany that is Owned by Benito Mussolini's Great Grand Daughter Flying in From Toledo, Ohio to Reign Over the Event that Shall Last a Lifetime as Many, Many New Files Can and Will Be Placed Into the Proper Genres After Being Placed Into FFR The Game. Enjoy, Young Padawan.

  44. How about queue clearing to coincide with the official tournament? Every round has new songs to play or something.
    The tournament could be your event.

  45. Augh.... so much for hosting my tournament in June. I'm not competing with an official one.
    Well, if you have 60-70 songs to get out, there's about 60-70 days in summer between the last day of school, and the first day of the next school year... how about release one song every day for the whole summer? That would be fun!

  46. He said the event will span 4 weeks... o.o

  47. good timing. in the summer would be perfect because SCHOOLS OUT!

  48. You could just add all 60 or 70 songs beforehand, keeping them private, and then on a designated day, release them ALL.

  49. No midday, he said "up to 4 weeks" which means he could release every file in one day if he wanted ;3

  50. Do an FFR Around the World Tour. Maybe spotlight players/artists from different states and countries, and theme it around them.

  51. OK. So we've got the plan set... now y'all just have to wait for it to be implemented.

  52. This is gonna be sweet!

  53. We really don't need a billion songs in ffr.

  54. Im hoping there will be more then 4 divisions for this tournament, I think we all agree the difference in skill within certain divisions was too big last time.
    Im also hoping it wont just be AAA to advance rounds.
    Anyway looking forward to it all.

  55. This all sound to good to be true! :-D
    ~Cardman~

  56. Your next event should be... Who can make the best "Top 1000" T-shirt for 2008. Winner gets their shirt created and sold in the shop so I can by buy them :)

  57. The last sentence should be "Winner gets their shirt created and sold in the shop for everyone to buy! :)

  58. Awww man, I might be grounded around the official tournament date because of doing bad in school. =(
    Also, yay new songs! I love you Tass, though I'm still mad at you for kicking me out of the MP lobby all the time.

  59. ahaha EA did bad in school
    sry :(

  60. how bout, an army of evil flying ninja cows is attacking ffr with their cheese swords of doom, and the only way to defeat them is with an army of magic fuzzy donkeys wizards with churro wands. Each song you release represents a magic fuzzy donkey wizard. FFR will die if there arent enough magic fuzzy donkey wizards to counter the evil flying ninja cows.

  61. Sent my idea via PM.

  62. and each AAA adds another churro wand to the arsenal of the magic fuzzy donkey wizards

  63. the plan is set? oh god, the anticipation of new song overload is already killing me *dies*

  64. yea good idea smartdude. also, tokens and skill tokens could have pictures of different magic fuzzy donkey wizards. You could say like, 1000 people need to get the Merlin Donkey skill token in order to unleash its power against the evil flying ninja cows.

  65. also, every time somebody plays a song all the way through, it adds a little sugar to that donkey's churro wand. each time somebody fails out of a donkey song, it adds cheese power to the cow's sword. at the end of each week, each donkey will battle the cow. if there is more sugar on the churro than cheese power in the sword, the donkey will win and that will be one point for the donkeys (repeat for other new songs). points will be updated once a week so people can see whos winning and at the end of the month there we will determine if the donkeys or cows have won the battle.

  66. FYI... there will almost certainly be 5 divisions for the next tournament, instead of 4. an extra 8 people that will have a shot at winning vROFL.

  67. more ideas in the works. if anybody has questions on how this will be implemented just ask.

  68. You could have it be the "OMG Summer" event.
    lol

  69. More secret and purchased songs! =D

  70. Hog The Internet for FFR Month
    Someone said it but I like the "ring" it has. You guys could put a bandwidth counter showing how much you guys are using or a real time data counter for how much data is sent each day and make a thread with the results.

  71. YES!!!!!!! nao i can pwn diz time muhahaha

  72. Can I be in the second to highest division pleasee? u_u;

  73. Another scavenger hunt.
    It seemed to get a lot of attention.

  74. Well, you said you've already decided so there's no point in me saying something like "SmartDude's idea sounds perfect!" just because I want to be demanding and have a bunch of songs released on the same day. No. I would never say that. Not ever.

  75. mother's day and memorial day are coming up...lol

  76. but seriously...
    May 25th is when the first star wars movie was released. each day have a quote from one of the movies and then release some songs that somehow have to do with the title
    It came from....behind!
    Stay on target stay on target!
    Fear leads to....suffering!
    Meesa Jar Jar Binks!
    etc

  77. Maybe we could release songs based on their genres. We could have a trace week, then maybe a j-pop week, etc. (or maybe a genre for a half a week instead). @Tass: if you're considering the idea, then I would need to listen to the songs in advanced and then compile a genre list that can be organized.

  78. jpop??? where? XD

  79. My birthday is on the 26th (May) and if there was a song released as a gift, preferably to make fun of me in some way, that'd be pretty cool.

  80. trance?
    donde? :3

  81. damn maybe a little late for this but how about a present to all the mothers? LOTS OF SONGS. of course moms probably wont care but any exscuse, right?

  82. how about, Tasselfootian day.
    Where tass just busts his load all over FFR.
    In the form of songs. (dont worry)

  83. Repeat Day--June 3
    SDG the new file to unlock a v2.
    XD

  84. FYI... there will almost certainly be 5 divisions for the next tournament, instead of 4. an extra 8 people that will have a shot at winning vROFL.
    ____________________________________________
    Ok, so there will be 5 divisions which will be great and 16 members, instead of 8, will have a chance of winning vROFL? Sounds awesome!
    Ps Mans0n has a point.

  85. I agree with tupacodaman.
    Star Wars!

  86. I think it's about time I claimed vrofl.

  87. Sounds good
