CCCP… Not Soviet Russia!
No, not russia. It’s our most recent song! Counter Clockwise Chant Pattern by Terminal 11. It’s… beyond words. Mega-FGO. Good luck trying to even FC this file. You can try for it for 7500 credits in purchased (the last of the purchased releases for the time being, yay!) You can thank gnr61 for this mass regurgitation of arrows.
Subbies get a new behanjc file in funk.

Tower and my 1000th level
Today’s public song is the very challenging Tower by AKHT. I don’t really have much to say about it… but it’s yours for 1000 credits in Purchased. File is by hi19hi19.
New subbie song is out too, Moon Child -Go With The Flow- by Naotyu. File by bmah. Will tell you all about it in 3 weeks. PS - This file is the 1000th I’ve personally added to FFR, including widgets.

Happy Thanksgiving! A new song & A song about Thanksgiving
I don’t feel poetic today, so I’ll save my usual diatribies about holidays or events and just get down to the fun stuff. I added 300 This Is Sparta EXTENDED Mix to the game today, as a special holiday public release… because I know nobody can get enough of 300 meme mixes, so I had to give you all the EXTENDED goodness. Song is put together by Funtastic Power! and is stepped by hi19hi19. Borderline between a 6 and a 7; let me know your thoughts, please. You can find it on page 1 of Misc (for now).
Also, I whipped together a video for my favorite Thansgiving song because I couldn’t find it anywhere on YouTube already. Check out the video (trust me, you’ll like it!) on my profile, in my most recent random thought.

The Games We Played Sheet Music
Undoubtedly everyone has played The Games We Played in the Arcade section right? Well just to let you know this 2-year-old masterpiece by Torley Wong finally has sheet music!
For those of you who don’t know what sheet music is, this doesn’t bother you. Go back to whoring whatever it is that you were whoring. But for those who want to get their greedy paws on it right now, you can find it right here. Have fun trying to learn this 17-minute conglomerate of video game song awesomeness!
Tass note: Sheet music is the notes that are played in the song written in musical notation. If you want to play TGWP on the piano, you’d use the sheet music that Jon & crew made. There is also a discussion thread for TGWP Sheet Music!
Double Special KgZ Happy Fun Time!
Let’s start off with a nice little happy 16th birthday to in-house artist KgZ.
As such, I went ahead an added a new KgZ song to FFR for today’s subbie song. That song is Memories. Stepfile is by Sprite-, all of our favoritest mod to come back from the grave EVAR. It’s his first stepfile in game. I thought both guys would appreciate something for them. You can find it in funk. Very melodic song.
After I added Memories, I realized that today’s public song is ALSO a KgZ song. How crazy is that? Anyway, today’s song is Procrastination on a Paper. You can have it for 4500 in Purchased. It’s a pretty snazzy jazz piece, and only 8 AAAs on it despite a 9 difficulty… so it’s a challenge. File by Silvuh.
Enjoy!

Momentary Life since i have Hellhounds On My Trail
My good friend Shashakiro decided to come out of retirement this past summer and wreck havok on the FFR leaderboards, including winning the last official tournament. In addition, he decided to shower us with a few of his simfile masterpieces… all S.S.H. and all FMO, of course. The first of these is Momentary Life. 216bpm, 370 4-framers, 3:20 seconds, and over 2100 notes of FMO S.S.H. Shashy goodness. You can find it in the FFR Shop for the low, low price of 6000 credits.
Today’s subbie release is much anticipated. I’ll save the full review for 3 weeks from now, but just to give a small heads-up, it’s Hellhounds On My Trail by Children of Bodom. AND it’s stepped by behanjc. 4:00 of CoB goodness. I know there has been a lot of requests for this, so I’m happy to oblidge. The one caviat is that it’s a secret song, so you’ll need 125,000 credits to play it. Or, maybe not. Anyone can access it via the widget on CoB’s myspace page or here on FFR.

Photo Scavenger Hunt #3 - Need Ideas!
I’ve been getting some nuggding that people want a 3rd Photo Scavenger Hunt. And I’m happy to oblidge. I love them. They’re hilarious and you guys put so much effort into them. But, I’m starting to run out of ideas. Every time I think of something to use, I realize I’ve already done it in one of the previous 2.
So I need your help. I know I said that I wasn’t going to ask for assitance with this… but I’ve changed my mind. I want the help of all of you. Tell me your ideas. But, please, don’t be retarded with them. Don’t spam the comments with stuff. Keep it serious.
What I want from you guys is your ideas AND how many points you think it should be worth. Just remember, it needs to stay PG-13 (no nudity or violence!) and it should be doable by the majority of participants. Aka, if you have “picture of you in front of a corn field,” that is too specific. People in cities or various parts of the world wouldn’t be able to do it. So it needs to be broad enough that most people can do it.
I appreciate the help guys! If you guve me good ideas, I can run this in about 2-3 weeks.

A Simple Contest
Here’s the contest:
I’ll made a comment in this news story, somewhere after the 200th comment (aka, you guys have to get to 200 comments first). Then, the person who makes the 10th unique comment after I make mine will win a 6 month subbie. 10th unique means you can’t spam 10 comments in a row after I make mine. Only 1 will count.
Make sense? If not, post in the comments. :-D. Although I probably won’t respond… don’t want to confuse anyone.
