Rules:

Here the rules of the different competition dureing the event, you can sign up for the in the registration form when buying your tickets.

In the Groove:

Format
Contestants will be randomly split in two groups with the size depending on the number of participants. Each group plays a series of the same randomly selected songs, after which the top players proceed to the next round, determined by average place of the series (KotH style). This then seeds for the next series of songs, until only 4 players remain. The difficulty of the random songs will increase from 9 to 13 throughout the rounds. The final 4 will play one last series, determining who goes to the finals and battle for 3rd place.

The 3rd place and final rounds will be a best-of-3 and best-of-5 respectively, where the players are free to choose any song of the pack that hasn’t previously been placed, as long as the difficulty is at least 11 or higher. In case of a tie, the tiebreaker will be selected randomly.

Allowed Settings
No settings that change the chart (no-mines, mirror etc.) are allowed. C-mod is also not allowed. Decents and Way-Offs must both be on. Other than that, all settings that change mini, scroll speed and backgrounds are allowed.

IIDX:

The tournament will consist of two tiers: HYPER and ANOTHER which roughly correspond to a skill range of 7 – 9 and 10 – 12 respectively. Within each tier, players will play a set of 3 qualifier songs, whose scores are added up to give a total score for that player. The two players with the highest total score will then move on to the finale, where each player gets to pick a song that both players compete on. The scores of the final round are then summed up for each player, and the winner is declared based on the highest total score obtained in the final round. Use of mirror, random, and mirror+random is allowed.

Sound Voltex:

The tournament will consist of two tiers: ADVANCED and EXHAUST, which roughly correspond to a skill range of 13- 15 and 18- 19 respectively. Within each tier, players will play a set of 3 qualifier songs, whose scores are added up to give a total score for that player. The two players with the highest total score will then move on to the finale, where each player gets to pick a song that both players compete on. The scores of the final round are then summed up for each player, and the winner is declared based on the highest total score obtained in the final round. Use of mirror, random, and mirror+random is allowed. Valkyrie mode and scoring is not available.

Donkey Konga:

First, everyone plays 3 songs in Street Performance mode on Chimp difficulty (medium). The top 4 scores advance to the semifinals; best of 3 in Battle mode with songs chosen on Chimp difficulty (tiebreaker chosen by me). The final is best of 3 in Battle mode with songs chosen on Gorilla difficulty (expert) (tiebreaker chosen by the judge).
  • Everyone plays with ‘Bongo’ sounds.
  • No unnecessary clapping or shouting.
  • No pauses/redos.

 

Guitar Hero:

Are you ready to put your Guitar Hero skills to the test? Join the Guitar Hero Competition and show everyone who the real rock star is! What to expect:

  • We start with Medium difficulty and gradually work up to the more challenging Expert charts, so both beginners and advanced players can compete.
  • Thanks to the YARG software, you can choose between Rockband or Guitar Hero notes, allowing you to play with the note set you feel most comfortable with.
  • Customizing settings? This is allowed, but try to keep them simple so the next player doesn’t face complex configurations.
  • The competition will be flexibly played based on the number of registrations and will be scored on a points basis. The songs are pre-determined, so everyone will play the same tracks. After a set of songs, scores will be tallied, and – – –depending on the number of participants, some players will be eliminated.

Time: The competition will run from 15:00 to 16:30, and we aim to finish everything within this time frame. Sign up quickly, test your reflexes, and compete for the title of the best Guitar Hero!
