[GM] How synchronized are you?

[kudos to clockworkmonkey for this awesome banner]

Greetings, fellow moguls.

Do you love listening to music while you're bashing heads in-game?!
Then this event is for you!

Welcome to a single-player event designed to test your skills in terms of synchronization and timing with music!



Objective:
In this event, all you have to do is synchronize a song to a replay you are going to make.
It's quite simple, really. Pick a song, any song. It can be a song you like, dislike, a song you think would be funny, whatever. After you've picked your song, decide on what mod you are going to play in. You can play in any mod with any settings. It just has to look visually appealing, and has to match with the song while it's being played. Yes, this means that replay hacking is indeed available. Just make it look nice! You don't even have to harass Uke if you think it would look better that way. If you're going to use a portion of a song, then add the youtube link of the song to your post, then add the starting time of the song used to the ending time of the song used (ex: 0:32 - 1:41). It's very important that you include the general range of FPS you had while you were creating the replay, that affects a huge part of how we will judge your replays. See the section below for help & information regarding FPS. Example of an entry for this event is on the bottom of this post. Your replay and song should match each other like one of those glorious action scenes in Hollywood movies!

How to regulate your FPS, how to find your FPS, and maybe even how to increase your FPS.

FPS stands for "frames per second". The higher your FPS is, the faster you will experience gameplay. Your FPS is located on the upper-left corner of your toribash application. Here's a screenshot locating the FPS. You'll see that it's constantly changing and whatnot (it's normal, nothing to worry about). There are several ways to increase your FPS and to make it faster, but here are the two easiest ways to do so. Open up your toribash client, press Esc, then Setup, and then click on Options. After you've done that, click on Advanced, and then next to the Frame Rate field, enter 60. Here's a screenshot locating the frame rate field. You'll now begin to notice your client running a bit smoother and more efficiently. The other easy way to make your FPS faster is to simply type: /opt fixedframerate 0. This magical command regulates and makes your FPS faster.

Judging will be based upon:
  • Originality.
  • How well the replay and song go with each other.



How you should submit your entry:

To submit your one and only entry, simply post:

-The YouTube link to the song you've chosen.

-If you used them, the starting & ending times used from the song (should be taken from the YouTube link, and should look something like "1:53 - 4:43"). While judging, this is where we will know where to start listening to, and stop listening to the song while we're viewing your replay.

-Your replay.

-The range of FPS while you were creating your replay (this is important!). If you need help with locating or improving your FPS, refer to the section above.

-The name of the mod you've selected.




Rules:
There's a ton of flexibility in the rules of this event. There are very few rules for you to follow, as all the replay has to be is visually appealing, and simply has to match with the song you chose. There are still a few rules you have to follow to participate in this spontaneous event.

  • No replay stealing, that's bad.

  • The replay must be new.

  • The replay must be between 200 frames and 1500 frames.

  • You will only be allowed to post ONE replay as your entry.

And that's it!
Everything else is allowed!





Prizes:

1st place: Some item worth 15k-20k

2nd place: Some item worth 10k-15k

3rd place: Some item worth 5k-10k





Deadline:
You have two (2) weeks to bedazzle me with your entries.

Happy collaborating!

:-)

<Marco> and then Oblivion tried to sexually assault me
<Oblivion> and Marco wasn't surprised at all
THIS ONE'S FOR FIREBOLTY

Song: Stronger by Kanye West

Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsO6ZnUZI0g

FPS: About 59-61

How I synced it: Replay start when song starts, song ends when replay ends. BUT it is crucial that both start AT THE SAME TIME, if not, sync will suck.

Replay: Below.
