    We're planning on going up to 100,000 credits for secret songs. >_>

        I know it's not fair to some people (Well, we're getting to the point where it's not fair to 98% of FFR), but I have no control over it myself. If it were up to me I'd make a lot more of the songs that will be in Secret in the future, in the 10,000 - 25,000 range instead of the 30,000 - 100,000 range.

        I just can't control that right now.

          The majority of songs do not need to be unlocked, creating a few secret songs that have high credit amounts isn't necessarily a bad thing. I mean, yes, not many people will be able to play it, but I am pretty sure that's for a reason.

            Essentially, we're making secret songs go that high in order to make it so that you have to play a LOT of FFR and get a LOT of credits before credits start becoming meaningless. We don't like it when credits are meaningless (as they were so often when all you needed was 10k or so to unlock everything).

            It keeps people playing the game, knowing that there are still songs to unlock...and it also prevents random credit gifts from becoming too rampant, since people need to keep their credits in order to have the highest secret songs.

              But, isn't 25k just a bit ridiculous? I mean, I'll get that amount eventually, but I'm not going to ignore life to play FFR.

                Yeah, I'd also imagine that difficulty has something to do with high credit amounts as well.

                  Not really. Hundreds of people have that much, after all...the reasons I gave before still apply.

                  Plus, they're effectively "bonuses" for high credit totals after Hyper Pressure or so, not really songs everyone is meant to be able to play...that's why we stick either hard files or already-well-known songs in there.

                  Think of it as a reward to get them, not a punishment to not get them.

                  Although I think it might be a decent idea to not count future secret songs as one of the SotW's...so everyone will get 2 songs a week regardless (and some will get a bonus as well). Might discuss that one with Tass.

                    Also consider not counting secrets beyond a certain point into average rank, I know it may be killing a lot of people's rankings.

                      The fewer people that have the song, the lower the default 0 rank will be and the less it will hurt an average rank.

                      Plus, people who are bothered significantly by a rank 300 or so are usually going to be one of the ones who have the song anyway.

                      If it becomes a problem, I'll talk to S/J about it...doubt it will though.

                        I agree... maybe a simultaneous release with an easy song and a massive-credit-amount secret song would be reasonable.

                            I'm not a big fan of the song but i liked the steps a lot more than the one I have for SM. Gj Rebirth.

                              Since we're all talking about song 'placements', and how all of the 'cool' sounding songs are put into secret, does anyone know a site where I can listen to Rotell Da Station?

                                Okay, about the file. Steps were fun, but I AM ****ING SICK OF THE JACK SYNDROME!!!!!!

                                There is one left 8th jack that is one frame shorter (it is during one of those pseudo-running men, too) and I have missed it 15 times in a row, all becuase I hit it perfectly.

                                I'm honestly getting sick of needing to be inaccurate in order to win. Seriously.
