Hey mappers!

I'll be hosting osu!'s first Reverse Mapping Contest!
To participate, download this osz and begin mapping the minute of silence after the short intro.

You can make it as crazy as you want.
squirrelpascals and I will both choose a map and compose a song for it.
Entries will be accepted from today till May the 6th

Please send me your diff "[your username]'s [your difficulty].osu" over forum PM
Happy mapping!

I will be judging based on:

- Creativity, originality.
- Gameplay, flow etc.
- The ability of creating a good song for it.

FAQ:
What does reverse mapping mean?
In reverse mapping the map is made before the song.
This means you aren't mapping to any music, but to silence.

Can I change the map settings to my own?
You can change any settings you want, but you cannot change the timing. BPM is locked at 210

What difficulty do I make?
Anything between 4 and 6 star I think. You are free to make it as hard as you want though.

Do I have to hitsound my map?
Absolutely!

What can I expect of your song?
You can check out this or look up songs on my youtube channel. But it will of course depend on the entry as well.

Why isn't it anonymous like other mapping contests?
I don't have the tools for that at the moment. This way I can also know who won, lol. Also I can look up this person's maps to see what kind of music style they like.

Which gamemodes can I map?
Only standard

Any other questions? post in this thread please! :)

A bit too epic...

Question, can we map the start or do we have to map past the bookmark? I like to have slow buildups <3

I guess it's also a huge challenge for yourself to compose a song in different genres lol
And btw should the entries fit the ranking criteria perfectly or not?
I'm not quite sure what you're going to do to the maps after this contest though

It's gonna be a challenge indeed.
Only the winning map will receive the song though, and I'll pick something that's fun to play. That's probably going to be a rankable map.
It's why I kept it really short, ~1min. because maps that didn't win are kind of useless after the contest i guess....
