So, um, what's with the extremely short sections with breaks in between in the hard version?

For example this one section only has a spinner and then there's a break. You might as well omit that short break. You might as well omit that.

Another thing that's bugging me is the length. 5 minutes is sort of pushing it.

Technically it's all fine though, so I might just wait what others think of it.

Ah, I went ahead with the break correction anyway. It makes things more fluid and fun to play I think, so thanks for that!

Very good, the only thing I can complain about is the length, really, but being a metal song, it sort of deserves some space, there's not many out there

Must've been a pain to map this 5 minute song 4 times...

I almost thought that

but the song is just so fucking awesome that it was worth the ~8 or so hours.

Also I believe the playtime listed is incorrect; the song itself is 5:06 and every difficulty has plenty of breaks. It's likely closer to four minutes of play.

EDIT: Also, if you think mapping a five minute song is a pain...

...you have no idea what I'm planning to do in the upcoming weeks.

I do not mind long songs at all

I've played hard and insane, and find no flaws. This map is excellent and is great fun.

Beyond rank quality imo.

Crazy beatmap, very well done. The music's not my cup of tea, but the polish on the beatmap can't be denied.

This falls into the 'I need to mod' category, but there's two things I noticed about the Insane beatmap:

1. I believe the slider at 21:65-21:85 is going to wrong direction. It's backwards compared to all others in that section and breaks the pattern. It was probably just overlooked. *EDIT: Seems the set of sliders immidiately after this one is also this way, now I'm not sure if this was intentional or not.

2. The slider at 4:14:90-4:15:17 is basically impossible. I don't think my mouse can even register that fast. >>

Loved it otherwise.

Yes it is kind of ridiculous - the premise behind it should be obvious, what with the shotgun and all.

However your mouse only needs to be at the end points at the right time, because there's no tickers in the slider. It's still an insane jump though, yes, so I'm wondering if maybe I overdid it.

I've never had wrist pain from any osu song until now.

Thanks, asshole.

ps - I'm coming for you on this one, saturos.

True story. The impossible is possible, and is available in the replay...though the rest of the last 2 minutes isn't exactly great. Lawl.

Good luck, Rolled.

Got 300 on Shotgun cock twice now (the one with the S Rank and another with Hidden A Rank).

A lot of people are asking me to do SH SSI, and I'm working on it now.
Third attempt!

Yes, he could. I say this with confidence because I'm pretty certain (that with enough effort, profanity and grief) that I could. So it'd be no problem for him.

also @burai you have the uh "leaked"-ish version lol there is currently no publicly available version of the skin it will be out in the next couple days, promise =< (MD's busy with irl at the moment and any second he'll fly into the thread with some images for me to download and append to the skin)

ugh! ... lag keeps messing me up.

And yay, my third play-through getting 300 on shotgun cock!

My timing went off at the end though.

Shotgun Symphony is back with a vengeance.

This time, it wants your blood.

A completely new, and much more intense difficulty (even though I've dumbed it down TWICE from its original file), is now available for anyone brave enough. Clocking in at 5.13 peppystars is Shotgun Symphony: Impossibly Intense with a max score of just over 39 million and a difficulty rating to live up to it.

First person 1,337 enough to fullcombo this badass mother fucker will get some kind of award, I guess (possibly monetary like an osu! T-shirt idk).

And before you ask, no. I can't clear this map. After a bit of persistence I was still failing with Easy AND Relax on, so I'm probably never going to get an honest clear of this map. But hey, maybe you can. The map is SS-able, though. Some of the spinners are really hard to 300 but they're all possible, as I've done them myself.
