Thanks to Xiaounlimited for letting me use his awesome Xi-Style Skin for this map! You a cool dude with awesome skinning powers!

A freaking awesome song mapped by a freaking awesome ghey dude. The insane on this is probaly the hardest map I've ever made and I hope it's rankable.

Resubmitted after the download wasn't working.
blissfulyoshi noted that I forgot a BG, if you already downloaded it and care about having the Comatose Album there while you play, please redownload.

Edit: blissfulyoshi and Inozuma suggestions.
Edit: Redid breaks as Alex0686 noted.
Edit: Took James's, Gladi's and Gens's suggestion and added Alex's normal, but is imcoplete so I'm moving this to the WIPs.
Edit: Took some of ASH's suggestions.
Media Change: I changed the mp3 because ASH noted it was crappy. But now the offset needs to be checked again because I suck with offset.
Edit: whymeman's suggestions and the Xi-style skin taken out because I fogot to ask if I could use it, if I get permission I will put it back.
Edit: Put the Xi-Style back in after getting permission.
Edit: blissfulyoshi's suggestions and added Alex's completed diff, now is in Pending.
Edit: Added Remmy's offset.
Edit: Animask's suggestions.
Edit: Vexed's suggestions.
Edit: tieff's suggestions.
Edit: Takuma's suggestion.
Edit: Mogsy and Starrod suggestions.
Edit: More from Mogsy.
Edit: 0_o suggestions and diff, more Mogsy a little from vytalibus Alex modded it again and Breeze provided a warning for the 2x slider in Insane.
Edit: minyeob noting out my mistimed note on Hard.
Edit: Once more Mogsy suggestions.
Edit: Hey guess what? More Mogsy suggestions, it's not like it's a bad thing but I wish more people would mod this.
Edit: Resubmit after peppy told me to, and part of the solo now is mapped by 0_o
Edit: EEeee and Cheesewarlock mods.
Edit: tieff's suggestions.
Edit: Changed 0_o's diff back to what it orignally was.

Should be fixed now, please try again.

You are going to need an easier diff to rank this

The offset sounds pretty off, but after talking in irc, I am not very confident in my offset skills.

Besides irc stuff:
Hard:
00:20:68 (4,1) - align?
00:21:32 (4,5) - " " same applies to the reflection)
00:22:12 (1,1) - the overlap of these sliders look very ugly
00:41:57 (1,2,3) - make a straight line?
01:25:61 (3,4,5,6) - this breaks the flow of the map
get rid of extra inherited timing sections at the end.

Insane:
00:24:82 (2) - align with 1?
00:26:25 (3,4) - make parallel to 1,2?
00:44:76 (2) - restack under the ending of 1
00:46:04 (4) - restack under the ending of 4
00:56:57 (1,2,3,4) - change these so they form a clean rectangle
01:01:04 (5) - align wtih 4?
01:25:61 (3,4,5,6) - since you have to stop an hit overlapping notes in the same location before going reversing direction, these set of notes are very confusing
01:31:04 (5) - align with 4?
01:39:02 (1) - make a horizontal reflection of the green 2
01:58:81 (1,2,3,4) - keep the spacing consistent in the combo
02:04:87 (5,6,7) - another set of confusing notes
02:14:68 (5) - align with 4?
02:32:80 (4) - align with 5
I really think you should fix the alignment issues in this difficulty.

I think this map needs to be cleaned up, but have a star for now.

00:28:242 - Reinsert the break in this area.
01:14:279 - ^
01:19:625 - ^
02:21:221 - ^
A little more symmetry could help, but it's up to you. Some things feel kinda thrown out there. :\

[Hard]
Breaks, breaks, breaks~


Not finding much cause I'm being lazy, I think it is a pretty fun map. :D Just throw in a Normal or Easy for the noobies, Hard is a little bit too much for them. :P

*agrees that you need an easier diff*

hard:
00:25:76 (4) -make this aligned with the rest of that row
01:57:84 (1) - don't like it under notes >_>

insane:
I kinda feel like its over mapped at the end but awesome anyway :P
have a star :)
GladiOol
Offset 18287

Insane
00:46:05 (4) - Not good stacked.
00:47:64 (1) - Make this end on the same line as it started.
00:56:58 (1,2,3,4) - Off screen, looks ugly.
01:31:99 (7) - Move on grid lvl to the left to make 'perfect line'.
01:37:73 (1,2) - Off screen, looks ugly.
01:39:01 (1,2) - ^
02:00:39 (2,3,4,5,6) - ^
02:10:60 (1) - Look at 00:47:64 (1).
02:14:12 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - Kinda impossible, with sudden stacks in between. You might want to change that to make it a whole clear pattern which continues in one line.
02:16:99 (1) - Spacing.

Needs easiër diff.

Maybe it's just the song, but this mp3 sounds pretty awful.

alex's normal
Notes aren't snapped. To fix this, press Timing - resnap all notes.
00:38:77 (1,2) - Get rid of 2 and lengthen 1 by 1/2
00:41:34 (1) - Why blue tick?
Uh, this isn't finished right? It's so short.

Hard
00:41:34 (1) - Bad spacing is bad
imo, there isn't really a need for this difficulty. It isn't very good, you'd be better off with just Normal and Insane.

Insane
Don't put notes on the very corner grid, it looks fugly.
02:36:15 (1) - Take that kiai off the beginning of this slider >:(

00:20:41 ~ 00:30:14 (Sec.) - Starts off a bit roughly, making it hard to grasp the beat for those just trying out the map. Maybe a slight tone down would help.
00:28:55 (1) - The slider sounds okay before the repeat, but after, it sounds sound good at all. Cut the repeat and insert a note at 00:29:98.
00:40:92 (1) - The timing placement of the slider is incorrect (1/4 late). Also, its a bit too long by 1/4 after the adjustment.
00:43:47 (1) - ^ (Also 1/4 late, but after the adjustment, its 1/4 too short.)

Notes: The map is okay, but needs just a little work. The start of the map played a bit roughly for a [Normal]. Also, for scoring reasons, you'll need a spinner for this map at a decent length or else the scores are engraved in stone.

00:21:53 (2,3,4,1,2,3,4,5,1) - Honestly, it looks a bit cluttered there...
00:24:24 (1) - Don't think this should be a new combo...
00:25:52 (1) - The placement of this slider is messy. Please try to make it more neater.
00:25:52 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,5,1) - ^^^ With an addition to that, it looks a bit cluttered here as well. And for that last slider, it sounds odd when it ends past 00:29:98.
00:48:82 (5,6,1) - The placement looks messy, and also, why is that slider set as a new combo?
00:49:77 (1) - Could look a bit more neater and sounds like it should end at 00:50:41.
00:56:16 (1) - Why as a new combo?
00:57:11 (1) - Not even with slider end.
01:14:11 ~ 01:17:86 (X) - Maybe instead of a break, a few notes could be here?
01:33:82 (5,6) - Not even under the slider end.
01:35:89 (6,7,8,9,10) - Just my thoughts on this, without stacking the (6), it makes the whole row look a bit odd and it pushes (10) all the way to the left of the grid.
01:38:44 (6) - Looks a bit odd without stacking.
01:43:39 (5) - Sounds like it should end at 01:44:03.
01:58:39 (1, 4) - Slightly uneven under the slider.

Notes: Honestly, the map could have been made a bit more neater with some more work. Sorry, but that's how I see it so far.

00:44:99 (7) - Looks a bit cramed into the corner...

00:49:77 (1) - Could look a bit more neater and sounds like it should end at 00:50:41.
00:54:88 (2) - Don't look right under the slider end.
00:58:71 (1,2,3,4) - .......... Okay... you'll really have to do some adjustemts for that. Cramming the notes up every corner as far as you can doesn't look right. Especially with 2 of the hitnotes bottoming out and the jumps itself is not equal.
01:06:05 (5,1) - Bottomed out....
01:14:11 ~ 01:17:86 (X) - Maybe instead of a break, a few notes could be here?
01:24:56 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) - Doesn't feel neatly placed...
01:27:75 (3,4,5,6) - That was kinda confusing...
01:30:30 (2) - Not even under the slider end.
01:39:88 (1,2,3,1,2,3,1) - Once again.... make sure the jump is proper.
01:43:39 (5) - Sounds like it should end at 01:44:03.
01:51:05 (2) - Doesn't look right under the previous slider.
01:52:33 (1) - The end point almost bottomed out.
01:56:16 (2,3,4,1) - Could have been done a bit neater...
02:02:54 (2,3,4,5,6) - Another crammed jump....
02:12:75 (1) - Could be a bit neater...
02:16:26 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17) - Holy....... that's a bit overkill for an insane map.
02:38:28 (1) - Long & Fast slider... :o
02:39:24 (1,2,3) - Close to the bottom...
02:43:39 (1,2,3,4) - .... Another crammed jump.
02:54:24 (1,2,3) - ^
02:56:79 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - The line up is not horizontially even and the middle section is not even with the slider end.

Notes: ..... This needs alot of work.

Overall: This map overall needs plenty of work. The shapes, the jumps, and some timing issues with the notes. Also, PLEASE listen to everyone about adding an [Easy] difficulty. You don't want a BAT being pissed off saying the same thing after everyone already told you. I'll star the map, but please make sure to get it fixed up more neatly.

Light modding:

alex:
00:28:55 (1) - I think for consistency, take out this new combo
need a spinner to break ties

Hard:
I still don't like how the beginning looks
01:35:89 (6,7,8,9) and 01:38:44 (6,7,8,9) - looked messy in my opinion, the second one was a little annoying to read too.

Insane:
02:02:22 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - inconsistent spacing within the combo
02:07:01 (5,6) - this breaks the flow esp since it is right before a large stream
02:38:28 (1) - this 2x slider feels random, esp since I went from a slightly boring repeat slider

That is all this time.

Okay, back from being off. And just updating. :D Extended it, because rust requested that.

Offset seems great. Easy SS for me.

Alex's Normal
00:29:663 Add note here. Center between 11 and 12.
00:29:982 Add finish.
01:13:865 Add Note here and stack on 4. Remove 5.
Above mods sound good and work well. Seems better than what is there. Just Try it.:]
Only other thing about this diff is that it seams a bit easy. I would turn up the Over all Difficulty to Midway mark. Normal.
I played it that way and it is more fitting.

Hard
Hp Drain rate up 2 notches
Overall diff. Up 2 notches.
01:32:05 (1,2) - this does not sound or feel very good. I would strongly recommend a change there. Mebbe to half tick.

Insane
Seems well done. Very playable.

LIke the song.

Cool map, star.
Takuma
Not going to mod this sorry. I personally don't like Insane at all - I know people have their own style, and if I mod Insane I'm probably going to ask you to change it so much that it wouldn't even be your style anymore, sorry.. Perhaps I'll mod the other difficulties when I come back.

Hard:
00:25:51 (1) - Too close to the previous (1) - other than that it looks good.

Normal looks fine. Starred.

Well it sucks that you can't bubble it because you don't feel like you should mod insane. But I'm happy with a star anyway since it better then nothing, put the change in and thanks for even bothering to look.

-02:12:42 (5,6,7) - Whistles go here.
-02:12:74 (1) - Tidy this up and add a Finish.
-02:16:25 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17) - What in the world is this crap. Remap this, it plays like a river of bricks and looks even worse.
-02:33:094 - Soft inherit section goes here.
-02:33:65 (2) - Whistle goes here.
-02:34:92 (4) - ^
-02:35:647 - Go back to Normal sounds here, but a reduced volume.
-02:34:45 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - Keep up the New Combo every two beats trend here.
-Look, the chorus again. Remember what I said.
-02:58:54 (7) - Finish goes here.

I definitely would not have bubbled this just because of Insane, sorry. ):

Good...Good...=w=

[alex's Normal]:
00:22:64 (4) - I think you should add more Whistles if you plan to keep this.
01:13:38 (3) - The inherited timing section here actually felt a bit odd. Perhaps you should move it before (2) instead?
A solid difficulty. Good work, chap.

[Hard]:
00:29:34 (1) - Add whistle on startpoint?

Those are really just hitsound suggestions. The map doesn't possess much other technical errors. I'm not touching [Insane] yet...Unless you already finished what Mogsworth stated.

Now the issue I'm noticing here is the way you used Fountains on [Hard].
Do not overuse kiai time (general rule is one toggle per minute of playable length). Do not use kiai time just for fountains unless you are doing this extremely rarely. Kiai time is meant to accent chorus sections. You can toggle it off and on halfway through the chorus if that looks good, but using it constantly every 4-8 beats is just stupid.
The most valid kiai section would be the area at the end. I'm not quite sure where to go from here, but if it doesn't hurt, reduce the Kiai please? ^^

Insane:
SPOILER
-00:53:599- That flash fades out too slowly. Fade it out faster.
-01:07:32 (1,2,3) - Remove the Whistles.
-01:47:216 - This fades out too quickly. We need to find a happy medium here.
-01:57:429 - I'd say to remove this one entirely or make it start 1/2 a beat earlier. Having it start in the middle of a slider, even if it syncs up with the vocals, looks awkward as crap.
-02:16:81 (5) - Clap goes on the last point.
-02:17:69 (10) - Clap goes here.
-02:20:40 (1) - This looks ugly. Fix it.
-02:22:96 (16) - Finish goes here.
-Remove the flash in the break, it's not pretty, it's ugly.
-Random kiai. .-. If you're going to turn on/off kiai once, do it the next time.
-Remove the next random flash in the chorus.
-02:50:72 (5) - Clap goes here.
-02:53:28 (5) - Clap goes on the starting point.

Didn't want to leave you hanging, sorry. I need to head off to bed soon, I'll do the other two tomorrow morning before my family drags me elsewhere.

General
The single strobes felt kind of weird since there wasn't many of them. I would either
a) replace strobes with kiai fountains
b) remove them alltogether
c) do more of them ;)

Alex's Normal
00:28:70 (11) - Start this 1/2 later
01:25:51 (3) - delete
01:29:34 (1) - just make this a hitcircle
01:32:05 (2) - delete
02:00:62 (x) - add a beat here?
some parts are pretty difficult for Normal, I would take out some more of the 1/4 streams/stacks.

Hard
00:20:40 (1) - This sounds sort of awkward. Shortening it a white tick then adding 2 hitcircles to fill in the blank works pretty well imo
00:21:68 (5,6) - Shorten by a white tick and delete 6?
same for the next pattern
00:49:76 (1) - Make this symmetrical?
01:27:42 (2,3,4) - ugh, ugly/confusing pattern =/

Insane
00:58:70 (1,2) - Partially off-screen
01:03:65 (1,1,2,3,4) - Can you move this stuff around so it's symmetrical (ie the straight line lines up with 5). The slider is kind of ugleh too
01:39:87 (1) - Partially off screen
01:41:47 (2) - ^
01:42:42 (1) - ^
02:03:17 (2,4) - ^
02:16:25 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13) - ...wow. yeahhh I would remap this part =/
02:38:28 (1) - unpredictable, therefore kinda cheap (i don't think this can be ranked)
02:45:30 (4) - offscreen
02:54:23 (1,2) - ^ -_-

Also I don't think stacking is allowed to be disabled, but idk

there, tis modded :D

My general suggestion would be to place the kiai sections at the start of the chorus. It's weird to see a short kiai section by the end.

[Insane]
00:49:76 (1) - If you're looking for symmetry, the right part's a bit off.

So far, so good. My only issue is the kiai, which could've been improved a lot.
Mogsy
I'd hate to pop in and give a general comment, but I'm being pulled left and right by my family to go places. So here's a suggestion:

Make Hard's hitsounds more consistent with those of Insane's. Honestly, they make more sense that way.

I APOLOGIZE IF IT SEEMS LIKE I'M SHIRKING MY DUTIES. I'm just trying my best to do what I can in whatever amount of time I have.

It's just me maybe, but I like a little more challenge in Normals/Easy difficulties, how is the player going to ever get better? :D

btw, all changes done
oops, posted and forgot the .osu again. D:

Maybe what I meant was that it's too hard for the easiest difficulty in the map. If there was an Easy then the difficulty level would probably be acceptable, but I think every map should have a difficulty that's suited for beginners.

hmm, maybe I'll make an Easy...
Go right ahead I suck at easys.

Alright, remod mostly for Insane.
All the following are suggestions.

MODDING STARTS HERE! :D
[Insane]
--[General]
Turn stacking up one or two ticks?
[/General]

--[Kiai]
02:48:333 - Why not start it here?
[/Kiai]

--[Strobes]
They feel awfully short. >_> And because they are so short they don't feel bright enough.
Strobes to add:
00:56:152
01:06:365
01:49:769
02:12:748 (?)
02:20:408 (?)
02:21:684 (?)
02:22:322 (?)
02:22:961 (?)
02:40:833
02:48:333
[/Strobes]

[Beatmap]
00:58:70 (1,2) - Each too low, and (2) is covered by combo multiplier.
01:30:93 (3,4) - Covered by combo multiplier?
01:39:87 (1) - combo multiplier covering it
01:41:47 (2) - Too low.
01:42:42 (1) - ^
02:03:17 (2,4) - ^ & Combo Multiplier covering it.
02:45:30 (4) - Too low
02:54:23 (1,2) - Low & combo multiplier.
[/Insane]
END OF MODDING.

I'll get the 2x warning up soon. ^,^

I checked your "last battle" before...... Your beatmapping skills have improved a lot!

[alex's Normal]
Change lower case a to upper case A

[Hard]
01:13:14 (4) - This circle is placed on bad timing. Make it 1/4 beat faster(To white tick)

0_o that's easy:
SPOILER
-00:44:02 (1) - Remove the Whistle. It doesn't particularly fit there.
-00:47:85 (2) - Make the hitsounds of this mirror those of 1.
-00:54:87 (2) - Endpoint should have a Finish.
-00:56:79 (1) - This should have only a Clap.
-01:02:53 (2) - This looks really messy. But it fits I guess but if you could clean it up that would be grand.
-01:06:36 (3,1) - Finish only, Clap only.
-01:27:42 (1) - Again with the whistleslider. It sounds...not good. Please remove the Whistle.
-01:32:53 (5) - First two points should have whistles.
-01:56:15 (1) - Make this symmetrical.
-01:57:429 - Flash should go here, instead of where you had it after this.

alex's Normal:
-01:35:72 (3) - This beat seems really random considering the fact that you were syncing to the vocals. Randomly switching what you're syncing to for one note is just not good/it doesn't sound right at all.

Fix and I'll give this a bubble.
