Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 [Regular batch: OPEN]

Hmmm... so, I just noticed that This Will Be The Day is up there; I sent in that file as my prize for the Step Con event, meaning that it should be accepted automatically in the queue. Or, should I just assume that prize is null and void? I mean, I guess it doesn't matter to me either way because I don't have anywhere near the cap in terms of files submitted anyway.

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 [Regular batch: OPEN]

Oh hey, there's our file!

We did it, Gradiant! Now we wait and see if it gets declined!

Dohoho, I hope not though.

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 [Regular batch: OPEN]

I used an mp3 tag editor to quickly extract the length in seconds of every track (later noticing that Google Sheets does have a Duration option, so 2:09 won't be 2:09 PM, thanks Excel), so the times are mp3 lengths, not stepfile duration lengths. Sometimes it happens that someone leaves off, like, a whole minute at the end of a track unstepped, but it's in the submission rules that unstepped endings are supposed to be cut to not unnecessarily increase the file size. But three seconds isn't a problem.

As for the Step Con thing, it was already agreed that the prize had expired.

Fair enough. As I said before, in retrospect - it's a non-issue because I'm pretty confident about the structure of the file, and I think it'll get in regardless. It's my only thing submitted so... no issue with cap either. I figured I'd at least try.

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 [Regular batch: OPEN]

ayy0 you can take Got The Row out of the FGO batch. I did some soulsearching and realized it wasn't hard enough. I'll probably throw it into the batch for the Official lmao

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 [Regular batch: OPEN]

Hello, coming in to say that a Weekly Batch Update will be posted Monday 10:00 PM EST.

[DossarLX ODI]

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 [Regular batch: OPEN]

Update on the Batch:
- DarkZtar finished Lead Notes for Set 1 in November 2014.
- One Winged Angel finished Lead Notes for Sets 2 and 3 in Phase 1 for the High FGO Special Batch.
- I finished Reviewer Notes for Set 2 in the High FGO Special Batch on 4 of the 5 files -- one file was stepped by me in that Set, so TC_Halogen will be reviewing that file and then Set 2 is finished.
- It turns out even though gameboy42690 finished Set 4 in November 2014, Silvuh apparently still has one more file to review (he's done 4 out of 5).
- I've given bmah the Phase 2 High FGO Special Batch songs for him to determine genres.

Tomorrow I'll go for Reviewer Notes in Set 3 in Phase 1 for the High FGO Special Batch. Concerning the Official Tournament Batch, I'll have psychoangel691 and TC_Halogen give an update about that in the Official Tournament Special Batch thread.

Also tonight I can do a Batch Search Engine Update; I just restarted the server again so the site should still be up.

Edit: The update will be moved to tomorrow for the Batch Search Engine.

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread v2 [Regular batch: OPEN]

As of 11/15/2015 6:34 PM EST The Batch Search Engine has been updated with the following:

Conditional Queue Fixes
* Noushou Sakuretsu Girl (Silvuh) - [Nov 5, 2015 16:56] September 2014 Set2, Pending Status

Official Tournament Special Batch
* Conflict (rparty89) - [Nov 4, 2015 7:28] Potential Transfer from May 2015

High FGO Special Batch Phase 2
* Got The Row [rog] - Removed

There are no updates for the November/December 2015 Regular Batch. Concerning the Conflict update, that file is a pending transfer for the Official Tournament Batch -- it's still currently in May 2015, and psychoangel691 would have to look into if it is fitting for the difficulty slots remaining.

Transfer Requests:
// Indicates that psychoangel691 is sure of moving the files over for judgment in the Official Tournament Batch. Note that stepartists are only allowed to transfer files up to their submission cap. The new policy hasn't been put up yet, although Silvuh and I have both discussed and agreed to that part of the policy -- I'm blocked putting that up until he can finalize my drafted versions and we can reach an agreement.

gameboy42690 (Cap: 4)
- Bring The Madness (feat. Mayor Apeshit) - Really not sure of the difficulty. Maybe low 40's at most? - January 2015
// - Follow You (Rhythmics Remix) - High 40's/Low 50's - January 2015
// - Suit Up (feat Southpaw Swagger) - 60's, maaaaaaaybe a borderline FMO - January 2015

hi19hi19 (Cap: 5)
- Hatsune Miku no Gekishou - November 2014
// - Gin Tonic Flavor - July 2015
// - Divinity Garden - January 2015
- DATA DRAIN (ending is kind of weird difficulty-wise, also I bet at least one judge will probably not be a fan) - November 2014
// - Stage 1 (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2) (a little long, but otherwise perfect) - July 2015

Silvuh (Cap: 5)
// - Heartache (Silvuh) - Moved over from September 2015 to Official Tournament Batch and Accepted

New additions to Official Tournament Batch from Transfers:
