KBO was my first taste of solo playing. I wouldn't have gotten into it without KBO. I found it intriguing, despite my initial dismissal for solo as an IIDX ripoff.

Aw. That's too bad, there were some fun files there and the engine was decent to play on (although I never really got used to it).

Anyone have all the files that were submitted there?

Re: RIP keybeatonline

fun fact: today is actually keybeat's 3rd anniversary/birthday (september 20th)—I joined the site within 24 hours of its creation, lmao

the reason it's probably down is because phynx only renewed hosting for 1 year from the last time the site went offline and that time is now up

#kbo turns 3 next month (october 26th)

KBO was my first taste of solo playing. I wouldn't have gotten into it without KBO. I found it intriguing, etc.

Precisely this. Without KBO I had absolutely no motivation to add solo files to SM and try them out (especially since it felt like the solo files I did look at were too difficult for a beginner like me, but I was clearly looking in the wrong place anyway).

KBO had the right mix of files, and once I got past basic hurdles like 3-, 4-, and 5-note jump-hand combinations, along with ring/middle finger trilling, I finally felt like I belonged. :')

But not really... it was a damn good starting point, and now I can enjoy those solo packs that I once skipped over.

#kbo will never die and will far outlive most stepmania communities

Re: RIP keybeatonline

it's ironically funny that we kept the irc name kbo when not a single person that idles the channel gives a **** about keybeat

Re: RIP keybeatonline

if it wasn't for keybeat and kory's subjectivemanias packs I probably wouldn't have given simfile making a second chance

Re: RIP keybeatonline

This is sad, but inevitable. Just like the rest of the small SM communities. Man this sucks...
