AFK feature for the Multiplayer Lobby. Would let me feel more comfortable about being in multiplayer all day, while occasionally checking in, knowing that people won't just think I ignored them.
why not, maybe even indicate next to someone's name when they are playing a song too

Oh ya, and Velocity you're still retired staff. Though at this point I've assumed you're already aware of that and it's just some kind of fashion statement :^)

The staff page excludes staff members that haven't been active lately, mostly to reduce frustration if a user wanted to contact a staff member.

I keep retired usergroup on this account for the pinkish swag.

Re: FFR Suggestions

Random suggestion.

Profile Badges for hosting a successful user tournament. There can possibly be a badge at the following tiers:
1 - Hosted 1st Successful Tournament
5 - Hosted 5 Successful Tournaments
10 - Hosted 10 Successful Tournaments
25+ - Do you even play this game? (joke)

I think this would encourage people to be creative and host tournaments between the Official Tournaments and keep people playing the game.

Re: FFR Suggestions

I'd have at least 5, it would make me want to push for 10 if that was a thing.

Re: FFR Suggestions

Make it so the credits spent in the FFR Shop are sent to the respective simfilers when their songs are purchased :3

Edit: Unless of course that already happens hehu, I'm working on the assumption they just disappear or something. But if not this way is more economic and could potentially incite more activity to the batch and shop, so please consider

Re: FFR Suggestions

I would assume everybody who ever did a stepfile for this game either doesn't play anymore, or has more credits than they could possibly use.

[Adalicia]

Re: FFR Suggestions

They have more credits than they could use because there's nothing to spend it on. If simfilers got a credit commission there's more chance the shop would start seeing more purchasable songs, more purchasable songs = more opportunity to spent those credits

[devonin]

Re: FFR Suggestions

I mean...they can just make any song they add be a purchased song whenever they want. The thing about purchased songs is they get seen/played by fewer people.

[Adalicia]

Re: FFR Suggestions

And I mean, there's a point where the credit system becomes completely redundant to anyone who has played long enough, given that "they can just make any song they add be a purchased song whenever they want" people might actually start requesting their accepted files be added for purchase if they had an incentive to. A virtual currency in-games is only as viable as the resources available to spend it on, if there's little means to spend the economy stagnates and the value of the credits becomes worthless. Currency exists to exchange for goods and services, without those why even have credits? I'm just trying promote purpose is all

Re: FFR Suggestions

We have credits so we can hoard them to unlock secret songs. If it wasn't for those I would have just bought all the shop songs.

[Adalicia]

Re: FFR Suggestions

Which ends at 150k. Afterwards there's no need for any more credits. I should mention the last song added to the shop was december 2014

Is there a compelling reason to even -have- secret and purchased songs? Like, do you think the game would be worse if we just made every song always available? Or tied the currently secret/purchased genres into a bunch of new kinds of skill token?

The virtual currency doesn't need to be viable. The volume of credits floating around is so high that anybody who wants to have all the purchased and secret songs just can. Having credits from the shop go to the person who made the stepfile also involves the wildly larger task of "Completely redoing the entire credit system to make it so there's anything to actually bother doing with it to make getting it at all desirable"

Have suggestions for that as well?
