Re: Stepping for FFR

FFR receives its files in batches, which open on certain dates and typically close after we receive a certain number of submissions. The last one was open in late October. Batches open approximately once every 1.5-3 months (typically around 2 months).

You definitely should subscribe to the Queue/Batch Discussion Thread so you can get an idea of the next batch opening date. I'm not sure if there will be another one this year, but keep your eyes peeled. Also take note of submission rules on that thread.

Typically between this waiting period is when people step a whole lot of songs in reserve for the next opening date.

Bmah mentionned the submission rules, but if you ever find that too boring you should definitely play the song aptly named Submission Rules.

Re: Stepping for FFR

read the submission guide earlier today, and I still have no idea how submission caps work. anybody care to enlighten me?

Simply:

- You can submit up to two files starting out.
- You start off with +0 points
- If your files get accepted, you get points added to your cap.


For increasing your submission cap - the ranks go as follows:

0-9pts - 2
10-15pts - 3
16-39pts - 4
40pts or more - 5


So here is how to increase your submission cap:

- If you have a file accepted into the game -> +10
(So for example, you could then submit 3 files)

- If you get the Acceptance Line (aka average score cutoff) +1.5 or more average point in a file -> +3
(Example: Cutoff is a 7.0 and you get a 8.5 on your file - you get +3 more points)


- If you get the Acceptance Line + 0.5 or more average point in a file -> +2
(Example: Cutoff is 7.0 and you get a 7.5)


- Getting Acceptance Line in a file -> +1
(Example: Cutoff is 7.0 - and you get a 7.0)


Getting rejected:
If your file dosen't reach the cutoff - and is scored below it then you will not get any points. For the next batch, you will still be able to submit no more then two. If your file makes the re-submission list (AKA top 10 files that were right below the cutoff) then you can re-submit with fixes while also submitting your two other files.


Side-note:
It is possible to get negative points, but in order to do so you need to send in a file so bad, its obvious your trolling. Or, you somehow steal someone else's file. That type of stuff.


EDIT:
Send me the file - I would love to play it. I'm not the best at judging files - let alone making files but I can give any input I can. I need to get better as well :P
