Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 (Batch is OPEN)

i'd personally be ALL for another unstepped artist batch.

I'd be all over this shit especially if there was also a "no BMS of Fighters/Bemani artist" rule. Bemani songs all have the same style and it annoys me greatly :/

The only reason I'm sending more Sharpnel and SSH this batch is because that's all I have lying around. Believe me I'd send more interesting stuff if I had it finished on my laptop haha
(I really really want to send my Colony 5 file but it's at home fuuuuuuuuu)

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 (Batch is OPEN)

If possible I'll set down and step a Shnabubula epic sometime. Love that man and his works. (not necessarily an artist that hasnt been stepped, but I feel has been under-appreciated in his works, for a long time now.)

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 (Batch is OPEN)

Prob because people submitting files stick to the more overused artist like Sharpnel, VSnares, SSH, Renard, Term11, etc and can throw up files for them real easily, or lack a wider range taste in music and resort to the same boring artists. Now Im not calling them boring in the sense they are bad, I like some of the artists I listed above, but when a majority of the charts submitted/released these days are from these artists, it gets boring and isnt unique. Dont know if its because people dont want to step outside their comfort zone and step something that may require some extra syncing, or more detailed stepping because of the song, but these over used artists are getting pretty bland.

You're telling me, I got permissions for some of the biggest UK Hardcore / freeform hardcore labels and artists as well as some j-core labels (with very diverse music, from chiptune to breakcore) and nobody seems to step any of it except for wayward vagabond and me, and megamon88 too recently with Mozart on Crack lol.

Kinda fuccen amazing.
Since my great grandfather had 4 wives (simultaneously mind you), I have nearly 30 great aunts and uncles. Most of them are in Hong Kong for #7's birthday. My extended family is HUGE, so big that most people just go by number instead of name. Since my grandmother is #3, I introduce myself as "#3's second grandson" instead of by name haha

lmao that's hilarious

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 (Batch is OPEN)

Truth be told, I had no idea we had permission from them. I know its perhaps in the blanket permissions thread, but I mean I guess from what I have seen it's just not known that well? Not sure if i'm alone here ~ But I kinda wish I would have stepped some of these other guys now.

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 (Batch is OPEN)

Bowser the Shredder (GS-Screamer) - file from 2008, still surprisingly fun
C-Jam Blues (Shnabubula) - this game needs more classic jazz, all hail the Duke Ellington
DATA DRAIN (DJ Sharpnel) - I remember this had kinda gay patterns at the end that I was maybe going to fix but oh well, yolo

amazing list!.. and yes I agree FFR needs more jazz I would have loved to see your Mondo Brutale file being in game, but that's just me who demands more hard charts. Damn it, I want to see 300+ bpm streams that don't consists of simple roll patterns ("Almost There" and "do i smile?" doesn't count, too easy anyway) Also, I'm hoping all is well on your trip! I can't even imagine the amount of time it takes to fly over there by plane from the US.

Where's kommisar with his Apocynthion Drive file?

[yo man im awesome]

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 (Batch is OPEN)

(8-9/13)Ephixa ft. nonelikejoshua - Gerudo Valley Dubstep Rap (was looking to send this for a while now)

looking to send either (11/13)Maybe All This Time I was Wrong by the Flashbulb, or (9-10/13)Black, by Katoh

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 (Batch is OPEN)

107 files as of yo man's submissions, hurry up if you wanna make the first batch

@hi19 lmao that sounds both hilarious and awesome, wow. Must be great learning so much about your family history (and such an extensive history at that haha)

p.s. I googled char siu and omg...

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 (Batch is OPEN)

Oh yeah, I might as well ask this since I'm kind of unsure.

When the limit is reached, the batch doesn't close, right? Just that the files after the 125 limit will be judged at a much later time?

[bmah]

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 (Batch is OPEN)

That is correct. The judges will review the 120 files already received, so any that are submitted after that must wait. That means though you CAN still submit files at any time then.

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 (Batch is OPEN)

That is correct. The judges will review the 120 files already received, so any that are submitted after that must wait. That means though you CAN still submit files at any time then.

So in that case, lets say 12 files are overflow and go into the next batch. Does that mean the initial start of the next batch will be -12? So instead of 120 for the next one only 108 will be accepted?

[bmah]

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 (Batch is OPEN)

There won't be such a thing as overflow because any files past the first 120 we receive will be in standing for the next batch of files to be reviewed at a later date.

[Charu]

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 (Batch is OPEN)

Alright, sweet. Thanks for clarifying.

I'm also assuming that the way judging is handled is not any different from before. With that being there's a deadline for them to have ratings done and so forth.

Or is that different too I wonder?

[bmah]

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 (Batch is OPEN)

For now, the time for judging remains the same. It's usually about a week to pack everything up to send to the judges, and three weeks for the judges to review. In the future, we're hoping to speed the process up a bit (most judges actually review within a week but do so at the very end of their deadline) but at the same time we don't want to burn out the judges.

hey guess what though ............

there has been 2 sharpnel songs released in the past 2 years
2 venetian snares songs released in the past 3 years
4 terminal 11 songs in the past 2 years
and not a single renard song this year


i just checked out the songlist for ffr and it seems pretty diverse
idk man, not many people submit sharpnel & vsnares & terminal 11 and shit like that these days so i dont get what the problem is
