It is very clear what the votes where based upon and it is clearly not the quality of the map itself, nor the interaction with the storyboard.
Can't agree it. Top 100 of 2012 is still dominated by Touhou, anime op/ed and Vocaloid. However there are still additional cases so we saw FD, big black, dragons and so forth on the listBlue Dragon wrote:
The votes were clearly made for the remarkability of the map, and not the song. If it were the song, we wouldn't have maps like Big Black or Freedom Dive, which redefined the standards for extremely tough maps in 2012.

best solution: remove gangnam style and all val/nakagawa/bd maps and re-do it.

Yep, this pins it down perfectly. People forget about maps which are older than 2-3 months unless they were blasted away by the map or the song is particularly good for them. One just doesn't have a good overview about every single map they've played. even when I voted I forgot a few maps which are actually amazing, yet failed to remember them (coz I got bad memory mb ? ._.).LKs wrote:
so the order people vote is basically:
1. songs' popularity
2. date of maps being ranked (Dec→Jan)
3. map's difficulty (Extra→Insane)
4. who's the mapper
5. maps' quality
Lol I mapped it cause I liked the song not so it can win best of 2012. Happy30 and I mapped it just for fun.how the fuck was I supposed to know it was going to become so popular? I guess I'm psychic.chaotic_iak wrote:
FREEDOM DiVE gets the second place. Mostly because it's a hell map? (Considering Scarlet Rose and Mythologia's End are tying for third, this makes sense.)
So most votes fall to popular songs and/or hell maps. A good look at osu!'s demographics.
Congrats for the mapper of Gangnam Style for seizing the opportunity of, well, making the Gangnam Style beatmap so it can win Best of 2012.

dear andrea, you know it's not easy for every mapper to rank a map. this game has an incredibly rigid ranking system, which is not quite enjoyable to get that shit done.Andrea wrote:

we love this game and we respect all the mappers who work hard to create the awesome maps that make this game funny enough to play with. you'd better not to tell people they care too much because you don't care, andrea can get a map ranked within 48hrs, but normally, they CAN NOT

Map insane stuff (=we have 8+ nhyperinsane maps in top30) then boom there goes your best of 2012
I do understand ppl who votes for gangnam style. but honestly why the bigblack fd? can even ppl pass it?
especially freedom dive, not even 10 ppl in this game can pass it nonemod. I'm not saying that the map is bad but i just cant understand.
ppl votes for something that they cant even play and call it a best of 2012. great job guys
Reposting that. Also wouldn't it be more interesting to have the full results ? I suppose everyone wonders how many votes their maps got.Shiro wrote:
None of my maps made it top 100 as expected. I'm still curious to know how many votes they had. Would it be possible to have that information ?

Yes because being #16 in a ranking where Gangnam Style is #1 definitly says something about the mapping qualityBackfire wrote:
Well, Bangarang got in there. Good for Tic.
I think if Gangnam Style was just inelligible, the list would have been 50% better. That said, the rest is mostly anime and "lmao super hart" stuff.BrokenArrow wrote:

Some of you guys are taking this shit wayyyyyyy too personally .
Grats to all mappers of 2012, some great maps I enjoyed this year, looking forward to some good maps this year as well.
uhmm i think you should re-read everything, we are mad because the best mapped stuff didn't even get a nice ranking. And the HOLYSHIT500BPMSOFUCKINGHARDCORE that you talk about actually made it really high.Glass wrote:

congrats bro
btw I voted Gangnam Style for the madz, and I don't think there's anything bad about the map itself
no, most of you are mad because GS got #1.Snepif wrote:
