1) Great song, nice timming and note placement
2) Need some extra circles in advanced
3) We need Insane dif!!! thanks! the insane diff is in progress.


>>>> ADVANCED <<<<

--> I think the map is ok, but i added some rhytm with some extra-circles, i hope you like it (it does not affect to the map's difficulty at all)

00:24:303 - Add circle okay
00:23:881 (3,4) - Move correctly to the new pattern:

SPOILER

okay
00:26:838 - how about circle here? okay
00:27:683 - Another circle here okay
00:27:895 (5) - Add finish nah, but i added whistle
00:50:500 - Add circle here to change the pattern okay
00:58:317 (9) - add finish okay, added on all diffs
01:18:388 - Add circle okay
01:18:599 (1) - Move down to follow the pattern yup

SPOILER

01:28:529 - Add circle here (you will understand with the next change why i did this)
01:31:909 - Add circle. After this point, go back and test the map from 01:25:360 to 01:37:191 (i specially love this change) i like it
02:09:514 (1) - end this spinner at 02:12:261
02:12:683 - Add circle i dont like this, sorry


>>>> AVERAGE <<<<

01:14:796 - Add circle nah
01:45:219 (3) - Remove finish? okay

02:12:261 - Same suggestion that i tell you in advanced dif. nue

>>>> AMATEUR <<<<

00:40:993 - Add circle done
01:38:458 - you can add circle here and add NC (if you do this, remove NC from 01:38:881 (1) ) nah, id rather start at 01:38:881

That's all good luck with your map, i want to play this ranked

- Drianel -

1. Your hitsounds seem too quite imo. I suggest raising the volume by 10-20% for all timing sections.
   
   
2. From 00:31:275 to 00:58:317 and during your kiai times, I suggest using the normal default finish instead of the soft finish. I think it fits much nicer with the music during those sections where it's louder and the bass is more active.
   
   
3. I don't think the default soft cap fits very well...You could try to use a custom clap that might fit better with the song. Try this one: http://puu.sh/2F7Vs.wav
   All you have to do is put that in the song folder, and then change all of your timing sections to soft sample set custom 1, or SC:1.
   Also remember you can find lots of hitsounds here: t/15407
   If you feel adventurous in the future, you can try and find some custom hitsounds that fit your song really nicely.
   
   
4. Lots of your combo patterns in the two easier diffs feel strange. Try to make the patterns in each diff the same. Check the hard diff and see where you are placing new combos, and then check the other diffs and see if they coincide for the most part. It would be nice to have new combos starting when the music has a strong downbeat.

1. 00:19:444 (1,2) - The blanket really doesn't look very nice. Try to make the 1 more curved so that the 2 can rest perfectly inside of it while maintaining distance snap.
   
   
   
   
2. 00:27:050 (3) - Try using CTRL+G on this slider. I think it makes a little nicer flow than what you have.
   
   
3. 00:28:106 (1) - I really suggest ending this spinner at 00:30:430 and starting the section with a slider there like you do in the Average diff. When you have this powerful downbeat that starts the section at 00:31:275 be on the end of the spinner, it takes a lot of power away from your beatmap and the player cannot appreciate how it's representing the song. It feels much more powerful to smash a slider with a finish on the head at that point to start the phrase off.
   
   
4. 00:44:796 (1) - This slider is really unfitting. I suggest trying a more defined shape, like the ones you used in the other diffs. The one used in the Average diff is quite nice, try to make a similar shape here instead of this slider.
   
   
5. 00:58:105 (8) - This feels overmapped because the hits in the music stop right here. For that reason it would be better to have a slider at 00:57:895. Try having a 1/2 slider there and then a jump to the 00:58:317 (1). So this rhythm:
   
   
   Keep in mind that you don't have to stick strictly with your 1.1 distance snap here. This would be the perfect spot to add some nice jumps.
   Just a sample placement that I found to be pretty nice:
   
   It's just an example, please create a placement that fits with your own style and intentions.
   
   
6. 00:58:529 - This timing section isn't doing anything because there is a break, you might as well remove it.
   
   
7. 01:19:444 (4,5) - To me it feels a bit nicer if you extend the 4 to end at 01:20:078. That fits nicely with the melody in the song and is a similar rhythm that you've used thus far like at 01:16:910 (4,5).
   
   
8. 01:32:120 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,1,2,3) - Honestly you can do something much more exciting in this section. Add some jumps. Consider increasing spacing at intervals throughout the section leading up to the finish at 01:37:191. Maybe have an increase at 01:33:810 and 01:35:500 and then a jump to the 01:36:345 (3). Also I suggest having all sliders until 01:35:500 because that's actually what the music is calling for. So here's a sample rhythm and simple placement idea to get you started.
   
   
   
   Please don't just copy that example. It's just to show you what might work well here. As you can see the 01:36:345 (1) is right in the center of the grid and we have these jumping patterns around it before we hit it. That makes for a much more intense transition, just like what's happening in the song.
   
   
9. 01:36:345 (1) - To me it sounds much nicer if you remove the finishes from the head and from the middle repeat and to just have them be normal hits. Then add a soft finish on the very end of the slider. That means we have all normal hits in the section leading up to this epic lone finish at the end. Try it, it sounds very nice. If you do so here, then do so in the rest of the diffs also.
   
   
10. 01:52:402 (1,2,3) - Try to make a rhythm that follows what the music is doing more closely. The music calls for a repeating slider here. Try to use one like this:
    
    
    
    
11. 02:05:923 (1,2,3,4) - A bit dull for the hardest difficulty. Try using a larger spacing here.

1. 00:23:247 (2) - Imo, it seems that a simple curve would be better than the sharp jointed slider. It would match the 00:21:979 (3) better. Try it:
   
   
   
   
2. 00:40:571 (1,2,3,4,5) - Try to make a more smooth curve that leads into the 5. Right now we come into the 4 at a sharper angle and it breaks flow imo.
   
   
   
   
3. 00:44:796 (1) - It might be nice to have this centered on the grid. Try having the 00:43:106 (1,2,3) curve into it and have it centered:
   
   
   
   
4. 00:58:529 - Useless timing section, go ahead and remove it.
   
   
5. 01:19:444 (1,2,3,4,5) - Just a minor flow/placement suggestion:
   
   
   Have a slightly more interesting flow between the 01:19:444 (1,2,3). Also it flows nicer to have the 01:21:979 (5) pointed downwards as shown because you continue the downward flow from the 01:21:557 (4) and have it reset with the repeat on the 5 so that the player can then move to the right.
   
   
6. 01:49:867 (3,1,2,3,1,2) - The rhythm was kind of hard to follow. The reason is because you have a lot of upbeat sliders here with their ends landing on downbeats. I suggest trying to avoid that for the most part. When you repeat it like this, you can end up with a confusing rhythm. Here's my suggestion for a different rhythm:
   
   
   01:49:444 (2) to 01:54:514 (4)
   This way you have objects to hit on the downbeats where important new ideas are starting in the music.
   
   
7. 02:06:768 (1,2,3,1) - I suggest placing them in a nice triangle pattern that's centered on the grid instead like you do in the hard diff:
   
   
   With the 02:09:303 (1) stacked on the head of the 02:06:768 (1).

1. 00:44:796 (4) - Try to make this slider stand out a bit more like it does in the other diffs. Maybe add another red anchor on the right side.
   
   
2. 00:58:529 - This timing section here isn't doing anything because you have a break there, so you might as well remove it.
   
   
3. 01:06:768 (1) - I suggest remove the NC from the 1 here and add it to the 01:08:458 (2) instead to even out the combo pattern here. The 01:05:078 (1,2) is too short of a combo imo.
   
   
4. 01:19:022 (4,5,1) - The rhythm isn't fitting the song very well imo. Try moving the 5 to 01:20:289. Also I suggest a NC on the 01:19:022 (4) and to remove the NC from 01:21:134 (1) and add it to the 01:22:824 (3).
   
   
   01:19:022 (1) to 01:24:514 (3)

1. HP and OD seems too low, at least put 2 or 3 or something.

1. 02:05:923 - End the spinner earlier and add the repeat slider back? Feels like lacking

1. I think you should generally follow the bass notes when mapping, that's probably the right thing to emphasize in such a genre.
2. 00:44:796 (1) - Actually expecting a larger slowdown here, like half the SV and 2.0x everything but that's too much work anyway...
3. 00:46:486 (4) - Better end here 00:46:698 and add circles at 00:46:803 00:46:909
4. 00:48:071 - Circle here?
5. 00:49:022 (2) - End 00:49:233 and repeat sliders at 00:49:444 ?
6. 00:50:712 (6) - ^
7. 01:13:529 (4) - I can't get what you're following. I would use the guitar sound here.
8. 01:37:191 (1) - Maybe put a really slow slider here?
9. 01:48:176 (1) - The slider ticks don't really go with the music, maybe just use plain repeat sliders.
10. That looks like a normal btw orz. I don't think one DS all the time in a typical Hard

Hi~ From your M4M queue!

These are all suggestions.

EDIT: I just realized I wasn't clear on what "back" and "forward" meant with relation to moving sliders/notes back and forth on the timeline (and I dont think I was consistent at all when I used those terms), so instead I've edited everything to just be "right" or "left" on the timeline

Amateur

00:16:064 (3) - Clap on slider head nah
00:17:754 (1) - Finish okay
00:19:444 (3) - Clap on slider head nah
00:21:979 (3) - Clap on the repeat arrow sounds good
00:54:937 (1) - Move this slider so it's more spaced from the previous combo, right now it looks like it's all part of the same combo (even just turning the slider end away would be fine - and doesn't mess with the overall spacing here) fixed

Average

00:15:219 (2,3) - This 1/2 pattern is neat, but I think should be consistent throughout the section - when I was playing it, I was expecting the 1/2 notes after this, but didn't get any - throwing me off in this entire section. The following suggestions will try to make it consistent. If you don't want to add all the 1/2 patterns, then you can ignore the following ~ but in that case, I'd suggest taking the pattern out altogether, again, for consistency.
00:16:486 (4) - Move this slider 1/2 right on the timeline, put a note here instead.
00:18:599 (2) - ^
00:20:289 (5) - Move this slider 1/2 left on the timeline, put a note after it.
00:23:247 (2) - Move this slider 1/2 right on the timeline, put a note here instead. most done

00:50:078 (1) - This feels better as 2 circles instead of a slider okay
01:12:683 (2) - This feels out of place. I suggest just removing this and extending the slider to here. done
01:14:374 (5) - Move this slider 1/2 left on the timeline, put a note after it did something like this
01:15:219 (7) - Shorten this slider 1/2 i think its fine, did this in the beginning
01:17:965 (3) - Add note okay
01:20:712 (3) - Move this slider 1/2 right on the timeline, put a note here instead okay
01:46:698 (2) - Add note nah

Advanced

00:56:627 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - I'm not sure a star is the best pattern here - It doesn't split into 5 nicely and the slider feels awkward. There are 8 beats here with the emphasis on the 1st and 5th, so 2x4beat patterns (like 2 squares or something) would probably work best. 4x2beat patterns could work as well. removed the slider and last note, i think the star is fine now.
01:06:345 (3,4,5,1,2,3) - This section is hard to read, The circles seem to be following the bass synth thing in the BG, but the circles end before the synth ends. I suggest a pattern like the following:
http://puu.sh/2MVEh.png did something like this
Be sure you space notes out appropriately and add hit sounds so it's easy to discern the musical lines from eachother (otherwise it will just be a long jumble of notes that will probably just be even harder to read and understand).
01:13:529 (4) - Shorten this slider 1/2 and add a note after it
01:14:374 (6) - Make this a 1/2 slider
01:16:910 (5) - Shorten this slider 1/2 and add a note after it
01:24:726 (5) - Add note all above done

Nice mapset- though I think it would be nice to have an Insane difficulty for this song - there's a lot in the music that wasn't touched on by the Advanced diff, so there's still a lot of potential to exploit in here. thank you - someone is working on an insane guest diff atm

hiiiiiii just here cause i love Blue Stahli XD
Let me just say it was awesome to receive a mod from you, one of my favorite maps is your Shinjitsu e no Requiem

[General]

1. According to Wikipedia the album name is "Antisleep Vol. 03" here. Right, fixed
2. Add some more tags! "FiXT Music" the record label, for example. I was thinking stuff like this wasn't necessary, but I'll try adding anyway :3

[Advanced]

1. 00:27:895 (1) - Better if you finish this spinner at 00:30:853 - to match the music and add a finish sound. I want to keep the spinners the same in all diffs, and if i extend the spinner to here it will be too hard on normal and easy. Plus, it doesn't sound too good to me, but I agree that it doesn't fit the music very well. Maybe I'll find some other solution in the future.
2. 01:13:740 (4) - Probably better to delete this note. Done.
3. 01:44:585 (2) - The music has a 1/8 sound here, maybe you could add a return slider to match the music? I like the current pattern though ;_;

Pretty nice, good work :3 Thank you!

• General

1. You should add a kiai time at 00:31:275 too. It's the same melody as at 01:38:881 imo.
2. Also, you should remove the kiai time at 02:05:923. Really, it's unnecessary. The chorus ended already. It's a very calm part compared to the chorus so please remove it!

• [Amateur]

1. 00:15:641 (2) - This note would flow much better if you place it down instead of up. Over here, please try it! you'll notice the flow is better.
   
   SPOILER

   
2. 00:19:444 (3) - Similar as above. This would flow better (speciallywit h 00:21:134 (1)) if you change the curve like this:
   
   SPOILER

   
3. 00:24:937 (2) - This hitfinish sounds too noisy, redundant, unnecessary imo. Please consider removing it. This part would sound much better without it.
4. 00:39:303 (2,3) - These notes look oddly placed imo. I think you can try something smoother, like this:
   
   SPOILER

   
5. 00:43:106 (2) - Again, for better flow please consider flipping this slider horizontally so the curve flows better with the rest of notes.
   
   SPOILER

   
6. 00:54:092 (4,1,2,3) - How about trying a more organizated placemet of these notes? I know it isn't necessary but, it would look better imo. Something like this would work.
   
   SPOILER

   
7. 01:20:289 (2) - Sorry for being nazi but, I think you can improve this blanket more.

• [Average]

1. 00:35:500 (4,5) - How about adding whistle at the end of (4) and to (5)? Sounds good with the dubstep sound. If you do this you should add whistles to notes such as 00:40:993 (2,3), 00:44:796 (1), etc.
2. 00:43:106 (1) - To make this pattern look better you can align this slider with the previous one. Like this. If you do this you can do it as well at 01:55:782 (5,6).
   
   The slider looks offscreen but it isn't

   
3. 01:11:838 (1) - In this part the comboing is kinda screwed up imo. They don't follow the guitar correctly imo. To follow it properly, you should add nc to 01:15:219 (6), remove nc of 01:16:064 (1), add nc to 01:18:598 (1), remove nc of 01:19:444 (1), remove nc of 01:23:669 (1), 01:27:050 (3), 01:30:430 (1).
4. 01:50:500 (4) - Add whistle to follow dubstep sounds again?

• [Advanced]

1. 00:41:416 (1,2) - The jump here isn't bad imo. The problem is the way this curve is like. It ruins the flow. For better flow you should make the curve more like this. It will feel good to click 00:42:050 (2) after because this new curve goes to that direction. Sorry if I'm bad explaining, I'll leave you a screenshot so you can understand what I'm trying to say:
   
   SPOILER

   
2. 00:43:740 (2,3,4) - Why is this triplet over here? It doesn't flow good! Please move it over here for a better flow.
   
   SPOILER

   
3. 00:53:458 (2,3,4) - Similar ^. If this triplet is curved down it flows better with 00:53:881 (5) and that's better imo.
   
   SPOILER

   
4. 01:35:503 (1,2) - These two notes aren't snapped. Please fix this.
5. 01:41:416 (6,7) - This flows very bad. Look at it closely. You made a forced jump just for a blanket 01:42:050 (7). Try to focus more in flow rather than in aesthetics. IN this case, you can stick with distance snap and it will play much better. This is a Hard difficulty, you don't need to force unnecessary jumps!
   
   SPOILER

   
6. 01:43:106 (3) - And here, this curve would flow much better if it's like this instead of the current way (flipped vertically). I'm reffering to this:
   
   SPOILER

   
7. 01:47:331 (1) - Same thing about forced jumps. This plays bad specially because it's on the opposite direction of 01:46:698 (5). Please consider trying something with better flow here. If you want make a jump with this note (1), but do it in a way that flows better.
8. 01:49:444 (3) - ^ In this case, it would be much better to ctrl+G this slider. Unnecessary forced jumps are unwanted~
9. 02:02:543 (1,2) - Here the flow is a bit screwed up imo. These sliders dont flow good with 02:03:388 (3) since that note ends up being in the opposite direction as 02:02:965 (2). For better flow and to improve this, try ctrl+G'ing these sliers like this. Changes of direction are good, but only if they're properly used. I think you overused them and that's why it ended up being not good.
   
   SPOILER

   
10. 02:04:444 (1,2,3,4,5,1,2) - Hmmm a star pattern here doesn't fit with the previous pattern. They flow awkward together imo. Please consider doing this: ctrl+g 02:04:655 (2,3), then 02:04:866 (3,5), and then 02:05:078 (4,5). Muuuch better flow and fun-to play pattern imo. It's more interesting.
11. 02:05:923 (1,2,3,4,5,1,2,3,4,5,1,2,3,4,5,1,2,3,4,5) - The hitfinishes here sound quite loud, consider adding a green line to decrease the volume of them a bit.
    
    This difficulty has, like I said, forced jumps that ruin the flow and make the difficulty less enjoyable imo. Consider what I wrote above for a overall improved flow. I hope it helps you!
