it usually takes me about 2-3 minutes to pass an insane song

4 months to pass. Another 4 months to 95%+ acc some of the easier ones.

Some pros in some older FPS games used to occassionally use third party drivers to add very minor acceleration to their mouse movements, but it was only a fraction of the acceleration added by EPP.
Pro quake players still use minor acceleration values today, but you can't believe anyone's settings at face value until you know what hacks they've made to their drivers. Also nearly all mouse sensors cause +/- accel to some degree, with the exception being a few tried and tested mice. And 'back in the day' there were no 100% reliable sensors, so players added a comfortable level of accel to counteract it, and if mousepad friction bothered them slightly.
Preference, preference, preference.

Simply un-checking the "Enhance Pointer Precision" box in your mouse settings does not completely remove mouse acceleration. If you want exactly a 1-to-1 mouse to pointer response your going to have to edit a registry in most cases.
Windows 7 is the first in the Windows line to have fixed this issue. You need only run the registry fix if you play ut99 or cs 1.6, etc.
i.e. Old games that call on the old name for the function that was replaced with EPP since Windows XP.

Osu!'s mouse sensitivity option is a correction of the formula used to calculate mouse movement. It simply calculates the movement more accurately where the old formula apparently rounded some values, as stated by Peppy. They are not related in any way.
Yes, osu!'s settings simply allows for decimal points on the cursor's position, making the use of values other than 1.0x more accurate.

I'm not sure since I still fail them

When I started osu!, I played a small amount of easy maps before moving to hard maps. I remember the last hard map I ever played was Nehanshika. After that I swapped to tablet + keyboard and my accuracy started going down, but eventually I became better and reached my current (93.39%) accuracy. I guess if I were to estimate, it would have taken me about 1.5-2 months before I started insanes. I mostly stick to insanes which I can pass in an effort to raise my PP though, and I'm currently playing barely passable songs (at least for me), so my PP is dropping fast.

got my first S on Insane the day I got my tablet... lol

But did you play like Cookiezi?
enik
Bought a tablet, now I play like Cookiezi. With a mouse.

I rarely aim for passes :I

I mostly aim for FC's which take me around 1-*** amount of retries to achieve (Insanes & stuff on DT)

Current avarage for me is 41 retries
G0r
If it's not FC, then it's not good enough. *hits retry*
Valentiino
I really should try to get rid of that mentality. It's quite hard since I'm a bit of a obsessive perfectionist :x
Aqo
Look at it the other way
If you can FC, then it's too easy for you
Valentiino
No. Most of the time I have to retry so many times, coz I'm not easily able to FC that song with a decent accuracy.

And getting accurate results is quite important for me.

Besides, most of the map that yields a non-pass try for me are maps with ridicilous bpm & long streams. I suck at those, therefore I mostly aim for FC's on every map
silmarilen
if you can FC something means nothing, if you cant FC it, no matter how much you try its too hard, if you can fc it with less than 9x% acc its too hard
if you can fc it with 98+ acc its good.
ofcourse this is purely subjective, and there is no definition of when a map is too hard or too easy for you, which everybody knows ofcourse.

I use this exact scale.
AWESOME-SAMA
I don't even bother playing insane man.
I only get like, the first 10 notes or so.
aggums
I still can't pass most of them, but hey, I'm working on it.
Mints
I think I started passing insane after a month of playing, and fcing it half a month later. Guess I'm average?
Bweh
Within the week. Though it was much of an easy Insane, so not much pride in that.
Starry-
Around 2 weeks with the tablet I started to pass insanes (before I was getting nowhere using mouse only a week before), and I started to FC (easy) insanes around 2 weeks after that.

how you guys can adapt so quickly
Took me an entire month to get used to tablet
Took me 2 hours before I could play tablet better than mouse and I thought being left handed would make things harder :) .

OT: My first "insane" took me about a month seeing as I played little during the first few months I started.

Finnish masterrace, good mate.

I could pass it mouse only in the first 6 months iirc, first B replays are in 9 months.

edit oh it was lesjuh I meant BD's diff, didn't play lesjuh's at all :p
Van246
pretty much right after I got used to my tablet :3
dat magic
[Luanny]
after 2 months playing standard "seriously"
and it was 1 year after I joined this game
-Dreamy-_old
It took me like half a month to get to the songs at Insane difficulties they still seem pretty hard for me though :p
Kanye West
A long time. I don't think I could pass most of them even at 10k play count.
heart_old_1
It depends on the BPM of the song for me. I didn't start passing 200+ BPM songs on Insane until last week ... Which was 3 months after I got back into osu. Just keep playing songs that are too hard for you but not impossible and you will get there :3
[ Talon ]
It took me a week,and you have to change your mouse speed and adjust to those speeds
LampaN
You iz doin' fine.
No idea how long it took me. Maybe, 3-4months ago was when I started getting past em?

i can't even pass it
-Soba-
about a year



I still can't play the hard ones
Disso-
About 3k playcount for easy insanes, 5k for med-hard insanes. I'd say in months but I randomly quit for months at a time so that's not really a good estimate.
Yakuyan
(Constant Playing)
From (I Suck) to Easy: 2 Weeks
From Easy to Normal: 1 Month


(Played Not So Very Often For A While)
From Normal to Hard: About 4 Months

I then stopped playing for months (Didn't stop playing completely but just not much...)
Then December and January 2013 I became really active.

So to my point:
Hard to Insane (not all insane songs): 7 Months

Right now though im practicing on my skill for a week now and I started to then play more and more insane songs....
But I don't save them because I'm offline :P
I do though save easy and normal songs because I play with my friends on multiplayer and they can only play easy and normal :P

What's so hard about it besides low AR? I've always thought most people could easily pass it, but just couldn't FC.
If it makes you feel better, I haven't passed keyboard cat zone, or got even close to the second break on Scarlet Rose...
It's difficult to read the damn thing and the amount of stamina you need to clear the beginning of the map is high. Even on the off chances I manage to pass the intro, my accuracy is already in the low 70s.

can't stream 170 bpm sory

i quit

220 bpm triples :( the AR isnt even what makes it difficult, its way easier than the same map on ar9
