Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

Oh yea, my avatar. I'll get to it right away.

Edit: Better? Oh by the way, 6 weeks, whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat. Can you do me a favor real quick, on Blue Sky can you change the hands into doubles? Same for triples because I heard you don't allow those below FMO's. I would greatly appreciate it.

Ok. Probably because your already a simfile author, it doesn't really have that much of an effect on you. But I'm trying to get something edited for my file before 6 weeks is up so don't take it the wrong way or anything.

I don't get it.

Hands are not allowed below FMO (which I still don't see the reason why). Hands and triples are not the same thing. Triples are allowed on any file. =_=

Hand=3 simultaneous arrows on the same frame
Triple=a type of pattern in which 3 consecutive 16th notes are followed by a 16th rest repeated. (could be 32nds etc. as long as it's 3 consecutive followed by a rest repeated, and is fast enough)

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

How many times do I have to tell you that in this context 'triples' and 'hands' are the same thing.

Just another case where the same word has multiple meanings.

Also, we test what you submit. We don't make changes to it.

1) Never mind, I vaguely remember being told that at one point. Then again, I don't see what the point of defining the term one way is (Official Picture Dictionary) if it readily confuses people who aren't of the norm. If there are multiple meanings to one term under this subject (which I believe there shouldn't, because it completely removes the point of communication through language), then it shouldn't be defined as one strict way on a sticky.
2) I don't remember you ever directing a post at me.
3) The way GG Guru split the terms hand and triples made it look like he was referring to 2 different things. Otherwise, he was being redundant, and redundancy is usually a writing error for the exact reason why I interpreted the text that way.
4) I may not need to have posted a response to GG Guru, but it was for my own information. If triples were indeed not allowed under FMOs, then there would be something wrong with the knowledge I have. I needed to be certain, as there are many people (for some odd reason) who come referring to me for help in something FFR-related.

I rarely ever post here. <_< I usually only breeze through the posts and batch notes to learn something new.

Ok. Can I talk to Tass about it? I mean its not like its a big deal, I could make the changes myself after you test the file. I really didn't know hands/triples weren't allowed and it's a really great song, IMO.

By the way, the hands and triples fit perfectly with the beat so I don't see why their not allowed under FMO's. See for yourself, you'd be surprised how well it matches.

No you just made a reading mistake. But I appreciate you trying to help.

Proofread.

[Xx{Midday}xX]

Re: Queue/Batch Discussion Thread

Proofread.

is something that the writer does before submitting any written work, not the reader. The writer writes, revises and proofreads so he/she can accurately and precisely convey his/her ideas. Really, the fact that you don't know the definition of proofreading tells me many things.

Moreover, it is split, "...change the hands into doubles? Same for triples..." You don't need to put "Same for triples" into that post, because it is redundant. There would have been absolutely no problem with "...change the hands into doubles? I heard that you don't allow those below FMOs," because hands are generally accepted as 3 simultaneous arrows on one frame. Same thing with the preceding post. "Hands and triples" is not necessary. "Hands" is fine. You are only creating a greater chance for misinterpretation.

K, I'm done ranting about proper writing. I would assume you thought you were doing nothing wrong because you did not know there was a specific definition for triples in the Official Picture Dictionary. Regardless of whether it was redundant or not, it's still a writing mistake.

This is often mistaken by many people, but it is more the writer's responsibility to convey his ideas properly. It is not the reader's responsibility to interpret the text the way the writer wants him/her to. That is why language and a set of rules for language exists. The first step in language communication is for the writer to write according to the given rules. The next step is for the reader to read according to the given rules. Without proper writing, proper reading cannot be done.[/offtopic]

he thinks hands mean 4 arrows and triples mean 3

just let it be

rofl That's a new misconception.

i waited 3 months to have that title for my first submission ever to ffr. honestly that's not too bad considering the massive amounts of files they judge and pass through queue. my second submission from 2 months ago just made the queue. I waited trust me, some even longer than I
