Information: Scores/Beatmap Listing
---------------
-Added Hitsounds (Custom)
-Redid my Insane Difficulty and changed some of the other ones as well
-Fixed the BPM/Offset to better fit.

Very nice map. I could play to this song all day.

I totally agree. Some parts are pretty hard to get the timing right though, and its a pretty long spinner at the end. But seeing auto do it makes perfect sense to me.

WOO I Actually beat it!

it's a fun beatmap with challanging parts for the most Seasoned Player soo Download and Enjoy

Wow...thank you guys.

Any changes I should make?

Thanks to AwesomeLemon for making me my 'Easy' mode ;3

Fix the video. Lul

Will do...what did u do again?

Timing:

Bpm: 100
Offset: 8.656

After them resnap all notes and use grid lvl 3 to re-map some parts.

Insane

00:24:256 : unrankable spinner.. too short


I dunno what i should mod here... its to much to mod...

Use Grid lvl 3 and my time and re-map the map... ask me for me re-check after re-map

Did you update within the last day? I have indeed changed it alot.

Same shit before update sorry... the beats does not fit with the music...

...you gave me false bpm/offset?

IRC mod

Star, but keep working :3

Dammmmm moon your help is like...awesome.
Redoing all of the difficulties now :3.

General:
The song is very epic
A lot of Osu! players do not play with background videos,... any chance of a background picture?

AwesomeLemon's Easy:

0:11:642 - Make this slider go 2ice
0:13:742 - Make this circle a slider till 0:14:142
0:14:342 - A circle instead of the slider
0:14:642 - A slider till 0:15:242
0:16:142 - Delete that circle. Instead,...
--> 0:15:842 - A slider till 0:16:442
0:23:342 - Make that circle be places on grid where the circle before is
0:23:642 - This circle should be a slider ending on the next circle you've placed.
0:23:942 - Delete this circle if you've done the above.
0:35:042 - Delete circle placed there.
0:35:342 - ^
0:35:642 - ^
0:35:942 - ^, Instead...
--> 0:35:042 - A slider till 0:35:342, then <-> twice.
0:38:342 - This slider should go only till 0:38:642
0:39:242 -Add circle
0:39:542 - ^
0:39:842 - ^
0:40:742 - This circle should be a slider ending on the next circle you've placed.
0:41:042 - Delete this circle if you've done the above.
0:42:242 - ^
0:43:142 - ^, and no new combo.

0:44:042 till the end of chorus - Would you repeat the sequence with my fixes of the previous chorus..? Becouse i really don't feel any kind of beat of what you've placed there...

Dunnoe if you will do all of them, but I think the beatmap sounds the best with the above fixes,...

Normal:

- I think you'd better like to change the offset for 242. That is the offset AwesomeLemon has used, and it sounds perfectly on time, opposite to the offset you've put in. Then, resnap all notes (Timing --> Resnap All Notes).
- Add more sliders if possible..?

Insane:

- What i've said for the offset below Normal.
- Is the song a Kiai song..? Kiai is to make epic part epic, with no exceptions. Most of mods will tell you, that Kiai time should not be longer than 40s. So please chose only max 40s of this song to be the Kiai Time.
Apart from the above, this difficulty is quite good ^^

The deed is done! I did all that you have asked :3. And to be honest I didnt notice that insane was set to all kiai LOL

Hey! I'd put in a preview point so there's a thumbnail on the website.

How can I do that? I've always wondered how D;

in editor, go to the timing tab and go to the bottom- "set current point as preview".

Hm, I tried setting the preview point, but... the picture aint changing D;

anything else I should mess with..=? D;

nice map, just need the background image :p


star

Got the preview point working

Oh...wow its been 2 months since I updated this?? I thought its only been like..1 week D;!
Wish I could get this out of the graveyard

hi!

[General]
-in one beatmap, there must be one beatmap below 3 star.
-use distance snap to keep it tidy and perfect snapping except for jump.
-I suggest you to use grid snap small. it will make your slider more beautiful.
-start kiai time from 00:33:842 end it here 00:52:742
-start kiai time from 01:17:042 end it here 01:36:242
-start kiai time from 01:45:842 end it 02:05:042
-preview point at 00:33:842

[AwesomeLemon's Easy]
song setup>difficulty :
HP DR : 2
CZ : 3
AR: 2
OD : 1

timing> slider tick rate 1

-your easy is too hard for newbies.
to make an easy diff, u should use 1/1 or 1/2 for the beat snap divisor. i suggest you to use 1/2 for this beatmap.
-please dont ever place many circle for an easy map.....

00:10:442 (3,4) - better if it look like this. http://puu.sh/7bny
00:12:842 (5,6) - ^ http://puu.sh/7bnL
00:15:542 (2) - delete this.
00:18:842 (5) - ^
00:16:742 (4) - move this to 00:17:042
00:19:442 - add slider and end it 00:20:042
00:20:342 (1,2) - delete this.
00:20:942 (3) - place it 00:20:642 and make it as slider reverse.
00:21:542 (4) - delete this.
00:21:842 (1,2,3) - ^ then change it to a slider reverse.
00:23:042 (3,4,5) - ^
00:31:442 (1,2,3) - delete this and change it into 1 slider.
00:32:342 (4,5,6,7) - delete this

00:44:042 (1,2,3,4,5,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) - same like from the above from * to *
why is this doesnt full? can you compose it untill 02:18:542 and remember to add spinner. ;D

[Normal]
a bit lazy to mod this. i will only tell you the major mistake.
dont use 1/6. just use 1/4 or 1/2 for the beat snap divisor.
you may not add many circle like this 00:09:842 (1,2,3,4,5,1,2,3,4,5,6,1) - this is too hard for a normal.
00:16:442 (1,2,3) - something like this is just so random. maybe put a reverse slider?
00:48:542 (5) - slider like this is unrankable. the end of the slider replace the star of the slider.

[Insane]
resnap all notes first, then i'll remod it for you.

thats all!! Good Luck

Editing Lemons easy.. I told him I wouldnt touch it a long while back, but now I'm doing it anyway xD. Thanks for the mod . By the way...I never really tried this difficulty much, but I did some changing without Looking at the mod you posted for this difficulty. It seems to work close to what you posted (Infact most of the delete this and that stuff I actually did do with common sense xD). Again, I'm following some of your advice for this difficulty, and also going to do the same with the other 2 . It should be done being edited later or so... thanks again

Alright so I edited everthing pretty much like you said. I even did some retiming for normal after I noticed it did'nt fit.

Bump, need some mods plz ;_;

BPM: 99.97

Insane

hhnngg

Edited a little bit of normal at the end for you take a look at, if it's good you can implement it in. ^_^

Also..

===================

Mods:

[Normal]

Kinda feels out of beat here, my recommendation would be to emphasise on 'girl i'm reading' to make it at least sound more sync-ed.
00:15:22 | Add beat 2(circle)
00:15:82 | Add beat 4(circle)
00:16:12 | Remove beat 5(circle)

00:27:52 | Add beat 4(circle), merge next combo to 5, 6 and 7.

01:36:22 | Awkwardly shaped(slider), make it look nicer? http://osu.ppy.sh/forum/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=37194

===================

Sorry for not having .001 accuracy on timeline o_o, cant seem to find it, but i guess you'll figure it out. Great map ^_^

Oh thank you! I thought people forgot bout this map... glad you found me <3 lol xD
I will implement them soon :3

Easy Mode:
In general, I don't think you should use smaller notes and longer jumps for an easier difficulty.
01:56:630: This spinner might be too long, accordiing to the guidelines.



Normal:
00:35:627: A note is covered by another note. Perfection would require memorization here.
01:09:527: You've got a difficult series of beats placed immediately after a spinner. Someone might get annoyed at having his combo broken.

Your map looks good so far.
