Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

I might have a very small amount of fixing. I COMPLETELY disagree with jacks like 444333222 being awkward. Yes, 44334433 is awkward and I could try other patterns, but the first one is NOT at all.
I guess I just need to check up on my 12ths etc., make the congas single jacks, and redo that one pattern and I should be good to go :P

I really want to know how many points +?, +?, and + would be though.

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

It took me multiple years to get some files into the game and I never whined and complained like this,
it encouraged me to work harder to produce not only fun but accurate files.
Jesus Christ, fix the file, or step a new one, big ****ing deal.
Everyone needs to stop whining and needs to start moving on.
Really, I don't know why I had to read 8 pages of bitching this morning.

Happy ****ing Holidays

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

BUT, why fix a file YOU feel along with others is awkward?? That's retarded, when you step a file you step it to comfort along with what's supposed to be there, making a chart awkward that you DONT like is basically not your file then if you just do what others want you to do, come on now...

Please form a cohesive and understandable English sentence, then get back to me.

Again things were misunderstood. It was never about a particular file it was about feeling that the standards are too strict to get a file in game. Things got blown way out of proportion on something that shoulda just been a discussion on how people felt about the current system and how it was running. The current system feels extremely flawed to some of us but not to others. No reason it can't be discussed. I really like the idea of rating different aspects of the file then averaging it for a final grade. I really think that can help alleviate some of the issues.

They are just fine, it appears you struggle to accept criticism and subjectiveness.

Totally agree with you here.

The current system feels extremely flawed to some of us but not to others.

It appears we are on opposite sides of the spectrum on this and seeing as this is your opinion I guess I'll have to accept it.

Interesting concept, I do believe this would make judges spend more time than they currently spending which is down to the discussion of the balance quanity vs. quality.
Being an artist that has submitted files since '07 I would say the current system has a very good balance of quanity vs quality, and sure, there always is room for improvement... but I think we are currently fine with the system that is in-place.

I don't struggle to accept it and I'm not even close to being the only one that feels this way about the strictness. I feel it's a major issue when files are getting rated with a + by one judge but a - by another. That's an issue there's no reason a rating should be that different from another. Which is why I say that we need something to balance the system out.

I really don't think it would cost too much time. With the new system judges aren't doing a batch of 100 files like they used to. Being that it's now on average around 25 files a judge has to look at that's not bad at all. Plus it takes more time to nail down technical errors (which is what judges are doing now anyway is pointing out every error) then it would be to just give a rating for how fun a file is. So really adding the other aspect ratings shouldn't cost much more time at all.

I just think it would make a good balance since there are such vast differences in opinions on the judging panel right now. You've got people that are just super harsh and others that will let a lot slide.
Another thing I noticed is it seems that if a file has errors but was created by a stepartist that has been submitting for a long time or if it's a judges file that people will let it pass even with errors like mis-rythms but then if a new stepartist comes along with minor mistakes they are hit hard for them.

But we'll have to see what JX thinks he's the main man here. .

What he said was why would you step a file according to what others tell you to do? Would it then be called your own file? Also, if someone told you to step something that would make it seem awkward for you [the stepper], then why should you have to put it there? People step to what makes the file seem worthy of being accepted in their eyes. That doesn't make it wrong.


Also, this is the attitude that everyone is talking about. Why does everyone have to have a stuck-up, snobbish attitude towards everything? It doesn't make any of this fun anymore. At least when I was stepping for DF I didn't get attacked from Kayla, AJ and Carlos every single time.

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

just so you guys know FFR is lenient as ****. on a scale of 1-10 1 being retardedly strict and 10 being retardedly lenient FFR would be a 6. before it use to be an 8 but things have tightened up a bit.

what most of you guys are doing btw is taking constructive criticism the wrong way. just because someone tells you to fix something you made doesnt mean it isnt yours anymore it just means you file had faults that needed to be fixed. how many drafts do you think any sort of planner inventor creator go through before they get to the finished whatever? many drafts. get used to needing fixes because no one ever makes perfect files. even judges with an assload of experience dont make files that make it in 100% of the time. so for all of you to bitch and complain is ****ing ridiculously retarded. remember you arent making files for just yourself you're making files for everyone.

on one last note the reason some files get rejected its because the song didnt have enough potential to make a great file and the best the song could provide was some mediocre piece off ass. the final hour has potential to be a half decent file. kayla chart for it was far from the best you could do with it and it showed. connect is another example for a song that has little potential. if you look at the notes for it there werent many nice things said. i unlike some people(this applies to everyone who has and will bitch about rejection) can accept the fact that the file will never be up to par with anything deemed worthy of acceptance. get over it you bunch of **** ****s, really.

none of you are making a really good argument btw. judging has always been subjective no matter what and it will remain the same. if you're really set on getting a file into ffr then just do what xandertrax did and submit the file countless times until it gets accepted(See devour)
