Not sure if there's a thread about this yet, no really specific keywords I can use to search.

Yup sometimes your combo always seems to break at that exact same spot.
Or maybe you keep failing because you can't get the pattern right.
What do you do in these situations

come back to it after you've improved

or just keep playing

edit: this should go in gameplay and rankings

Sorry I wasn't really sure where to put it...

Try until I succeed
Swearing if I miss at the same place too many times
Come back to the map when I've improved
Also sometimes I just press alt-f4 twice

find another map to play

simple as that ):

Try it again and again and again and again...
until I pass or 'till my hands tired.. :3

It depends on the map. For maps I hate, I just go "fuck it this map sucks anyway", play another diff, rate 1 if I'm really angry or if I think the map shouldn't have been ranked, then play something else.

Should have added downvoting to the poll, don't wanna change it already lols

if i cant FC it because its just too hard i leave the map and come back when im better
if i keep having like 1 or 2 stupid misses or sliderbreaks i keep trying untill i succeed, or if it takes too long ill just try an other time.

Forget about it for now and come back after a random period of time.

Exactly what it says on the tin

I'd say, leave it for now and come back later when I improved. The very first map I played (Hartmann's Youkai Girl on easy) was like that, which pretty much discouraged me from playing osu! (thankfully, not enough to prevent me from trying out more beatmaps, which were easier and got me into it). Just now, I finally passed it.

Me2, if i love the map, i play a lot a lot and when im tired i play other diff xD, and if its a song that i dont like, i go play another xD

I wanted two options :v
