i am in favor of the no benami rule, i want people to venture outside realize that there are more songs that aren't just kors k, Camellia, etc.

Count me in.

I think I got enough original stuff that I've not used that I can use for this contest. I might be able to provide a skeleton every week but not a simfile every week.

I think it goes without saying that i'm in... now about the rules.

(note: When I'm saying BEMANI here, I'm using it as a catch-all term to include actual BEMANI songs, BMS songs, songs from other rhythm games and so on).

Anyway... I feel like submitting songs from BEMANI is kinda cheap and lazy because:
1. If someone really wanted to they could go look up the chart(s) from the respective games and just make uninspired files based off of that.
2. Personally, it was also very annoying in Simfile Shuffle when I would veto a song from BEMANI and get another one when the main reason for vetoing was to get a song that wasn't from BEMANI.
3. If I take the time to find and cut a song, other people should too.

However, the added auction aspect of this contest makes BEMANI being submitted not that big of a deal, since I can spend my moneys on other skeletons. But if none of the skeletons appeal to me, then there's a chance I might get stuck with a BEMANI song, and even if I veto I still could too (though I guess multiple vetoes are allowed now because of the money system). I think having the first round as a "free round" as a test would be a good thing.

Question. Say I decide "none of these songs are good and I don't want to spend money on them for this round". Can I save up my money for a later round?

I'm kinda torn on whether or not I should try joining this contest. I don't know if I'll have the time to do so, but I might be able to step other people's skeletons. There's also the fact that don't have anything to work with graphics on my computer.

I don't know if I can, but I'd love to join otherwise. I've seen some of the past contests, and they looked like fun. I know one day I might as well join one of these events.

Graphics are not necessary for a simfile: They're nice, but remember the most important thing isn't the graphics, it's the steps themselves. If you can, I say go for it. https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/301096158976278529.png

@Pandemonium X Yes. If you submit a skeleton but you don't bid on anything, you will receive a randomly selected skeleton for $1. However, the skeleton you submitted is guaranteed to get at least $1, so overall you won't lose any $. Therefore you can save up your $ for another round.

You know what, I think I'll join this time. I have multiple simfiles, both finished and unfinished, that I may as well share. At the same time, I should polish up some of my older ones as well.

I would love to join, but I'm gonna be doing work by the time this is starting, so I don't think I could attend this event. Good luck everyone.

Oooh, I've been waiting for this! Count me in please Big Grin
I haven't been active much around here, not since school has started back up, but one simfile a week seems manageable with my schedule.

The song length minimum has been changed from 1 minute 15 seconds to just 1 minute. The rule was stricter that it needed to be.

Technically it's one simfile every other week, so you will have even more time Laughing Hard

bla bla tired of bemani

I think most bemani songs work great for simfiles for a reason, most that I care about is that the song has steppable rhythms. bemani usually provides that (though not always) and is usually of good length too. I mean I agree that you hear a lot of samey sounding songs but I'd take that any day over some of the other stuff I've gotten in simfile shuffle that's near impossible to make anything interesting of (that isn't a 7 or lower). Not saying it can't be done, but often, I feel like many of these non-bemani, non-electro (or other commonly submitted genre) songs are being submitted without an idea of why or why not a song could work for a simfile.

Still, it's not like I don't welcome more diversity in music submissions (I do like bemani though), and for the auction the non-bemani rule does kind of make sense. Since points are pretty dependent on how good of a skeleton you submit, bemani is safe, and going safe has a much bigger importance here. In shuffle you're probably just going to annoy your partner and lose a couple points due to missing out on top3 bonuses, but it's nowhere near the stuff here. So yeah, I don't mind a non-bemani rule, but I sure hope people think through their song choices with simfiles in mind as a prio#1

Basically, I don't care too much either way and I want to join because contests are fun

I would be very willing to make graphics for you, since you said your computer is incapable of doing so. Smile

Hey, I'd like in on this too! The more the merrier, right? Plus I could use some more simfile practice.

Yep! This contest is great practice for Battle Royale/TOI coming in March!

Right now, the No Bemani rule is slightly more supported than unsupported. However, it is very likely we will still make the first round a free round to test it out, especially since people only have $20 and probably won't be making any ambitious bids yet.

I think that's a fair compromise. I don't have much of an opinion on the rule seeing as how I wasn't really planning on submitting Bemani songs anyway, but if the point is to make the bidding process less skewed in the favor of songs from other rhythm games, then one round should be enough to determine whether that'd be an issue.
