Why do you map?
Total votes: 161
Polling ended
it has come to my understanding lately that the true reason I map is that I'm a sadist who enjoys watching others suffer
that is, play my maps
that is, play my maps
Both for fun and for ranked :3
I want to share the music with others, enjoy it together.

I map because... well, usually when I listen to the song, I can 'see' the notes mapped to it
And when I see it can be a good map, I usually try mapping it
Sometimes it's just for fun and nothing else (e.g. big money, rainbow tylenol)
yeah, this, probably the best reason why i'm mapping too lolBlue Dragon wrote:

Maybe this can explain one of my reasons why i'm mapping too.Blue Dragon wrote:

I map for the sake of mapping. I enjoy songs I map, and I enjoy the maps I make.
It's fun, and that's what matters.(I picked other)
When i think i was bad at mapping at the start..
Now i'm mapping real insane and cool maps, but i don't officially upload them until they're fully done.
Wich is better.
Getting ranked will be good, and getting known as a good mapper is a dream i will realize.

I try to map songs I like that aren't ranked, get so far, and then just give up after a while :/ Part of me also wants to become known for mapping lol.
Perhaps one of these days I'll actually finish a map.

answer : Because I have nothing to do
Other : Making osu! to become more popular with famous songs playable on the game 
I should've came here early... It's exicting to map in first time, but it gets bored when you map too much. It gets exicting to map again when you haven't mapped for ages.
other:
I got nothing to do...
and no one mapping music/song I like, so I try to make them and failed

I just want my favorite songs ranked, at least I try to do it.
i want to increase the difficulty one player can pass through making super hard maps.

To troll people by making as many shitty maps of shitty Digimon songs as I could. 
Because i want a Ranked map of a song i like and other.
That wasn't really necessary, you know what I mean.
That was just a way of saying "for fun". There is absolutely nothing wrong with it.

Mapping is a great way to remove stress
the reason why i'm mapping is to make people happy, well i don't have many experience about mapping. but i will try harder
i don't like to be popular just because mapping, i just want my creation will make people happy.
not aiming to be famous
not aiming for ranked maps
always be happy for mapping

Because i want to express myself artistically. And because i want to challenge people
A Tame Wolf
i just do it so i can make my own beatmaps, wish i knew how to use my own music instead of the music made my suggested artists
a little late to add my opinion
I have mapped songs because I am sure there might be other people that like the same songs I like
I map songs for everyone not just myself
I want people to be able to enjoy their favorite songs
that is why I map songs
all of mine are japanese songs or korean

i map mainly for expression, and for the songs i love.
as of now, i'm mainly mapping one artist (though i guess im beginning to open up to other artists now). the artist uses themes which i appreciate, and i try to incorporate them into my mapping. for instance, their latest album laments on the practice of literary and musical plagiarism. i express this by looking at the famous maps when osu! gained popularity such as Highscore, a few modern maps, a few graveyard maps, and a few of my own maps. i copy ideas from those maps and blatantly copy then into the maps of the album.
i've done this two other times (one is a double-album with references of my own accross mapsets, and the other is a loosely selected set of beatmaps which try to relive my experience as a player by replicating styles from 2 years ago, but that last one is still pretty fresh with just one song on the list) but all of them are incomplete, because i cannot push myself.
this looks so self gratifying of a post hahah... if it comes across like that, nothing i can do to change your mind
anyway, that's my idea of expression. it's reliant on reference and context, so i doubt if all of them become appreciated, more so for the same reasons. also, i don't strictly implement this as i sound. i'd say it's an expression for mappers rather than for players. actually, maybe it's all just for myself.

I map, or at least attempt to map in Catch so that I can create something that other people could play and enjoy.
I think I'm actually close to finding that spark that makes me competent in mapping enough to get a Catch map ranked.
