I'm probably going to be more grief (read: to the staff) than assistance but it's probably due to the @ in your username. I have faith that peppy can set you straight, though.

though I thought the issue was addressed, perhaps not for every scenario

Have you tried removing that beatmap from your Songs folder? Looks like BeatmapManager, which is being called at Initialization is throwing the error when trying to parse something, so I'd suspect something in the Songs folder.

ok osu has started!
now for the uploading, firstly i get an upload error message, and click retry, and it says uploading, should i then click submit whilst it's still uploading?

Submit will be grayed out while the beatmap is uploading, and should become enabled once it's done uploading. A status message should also be visible saying "File uploaded! Ready to submit!" or something along those lines.

So, yes, click button.

I think this is the same error as this guy's thread.
