Hmm.... That would be cool. Though I just hope it doesn't get blocked by hitnotes and that I could fit it into the file size...

Just about ready for pending then.....

Here's my updated difficulty

Changes:
*Fixes to the storyboard
*A few hitsound changes

Download: Inoue Marina (Yoko Littner) - Pieces Of Sweet Stars (whymeman) [Azure's S.t.a.r.S].osu

Hi whymeman ! Don't be down ! Here's a kudosu star for ya to encourage you. =D It's a very nice song and map, and yea, I really like it. *You're my star~~*

General : There's some stuff on video. Yea, some stuff. Maybe you should add a notice warning that there are some stuff there.

TASTY STARS
00:44:33 (10) - A clap amongst the sea of no claps sound really weird to me. If you wanna make that clap-at-the-end-of-every-lyric pattern, claps should be on 00:47:96 (11). Also consider add notes with clap at 00:40:694, 00:51:603. If you want to be consistent, you can also add notes with normal hitsound at 2 tick earlier to these 2 places too. =D

Extra point : I realize you do that on here, 01:55:01 (11,12) , so I think you should fix above for consistency.

00:48:194, 00:48:648 - This is just purely suggestion, because this part that doesn't have notes with the lyric is kinda weird and contradictory with earlier parts.
00:49:78 (5) - This clap is very random. XD
01:55:23 (12) - Clap ?
02:02:51 (10) - ^
02:05:921 - 2 notes here ?

AZURE STARS
00:52:05 (2,3) - I suggest changing these 2 sliders' type to linear type for a better cosmetic effect. XD (Notice that just change TYPE, not the slider itself)
00:52:05 (2,3) - Is out of grid a problem ?
02:33:87 (8) - Change to linear slider type ?
03:49:33 (1) - I think this spinner breaks the feelings of stream, but again, there's this score limit thingy D:
04:04:78 (1) - ^
04:08:194 - Add a note ?
And as always, I suki those cute star sliders. <3 :3

STARS
03:42:975 - Well done.

Not going to touch SWEET STARS since I believed I modded that already last time. XD

01:55:23 (12) - Clap ?
02:02:51 (10) - ^

SPOILER

Well, my opinion on how to make the song not exceeding the score limit. (Stars)
00:37:285 - Start the map here. (Can't.... that would kill the point of the map itself.)
03:27:681 - Remove this part ? But then the break would be too long. D: (Yeah...)
I kinda understand your dilemma and feelings. *gives cookies*
*sigh* I hope these part won't needed to be cut off though, but... *sigh*

You also have support from this as well :

I'll just stick with how [S.t.a.r.S] is for the time being.

This map has been deleted on the request of its creator. It is no longer available.

Haha! A bouncy map~

Starry! <3

I strongly urge Azure to map the other 20 secs of the map. Feels very unfit where you previously ended it. :s

modded more in irc..

Skin looks beautiful, hitsounds sounded great, timing was spot on to me.

So far as playability issues go, my only concern was with the 01:21:14 (1,2,3,4,5,6) pattern on Azure's. I just think it's a bit hard to read. (Though it is true there's a very small spot you can keep your mouse to hit all 6.) I think those 2 'Star Slider' patterns could use a little more star shape to em too. I can't say I was able to play 'S.t.a.r.S' difficulty, so that's about it.

whyme, please don't kudosu this post, lol.

*'star this map' joke goes here*

*_*
Star~

Thank you for the support

Also, to anyone having an issue with the fail-background.png: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=17676

I love the skin on this, all great maps, here are my suggestions, feel free to ignore them:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sweet Stars:

00:28:87 – Adding a beat here makes it easier to follow the beat I think.
01:07:73 (1,2,3,4,5,6) – This beat is a little hard to follow, there’s nothing wrong with it, but I think the way you mapped it at 01:22:28 (1,2,3,4,5) – was easier to hit.
01:15:01 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - ^
01:25:92 (1,2,3,4,5) - ^
02:22:28 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - ^
02:29:55 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - ^
02:41:60 (5) – Add a beat?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tasty Stars:

01:07:73 (1,2,3,4,5,6) – Same as easy.
01:15:01 (1,2,3,4,5,6) – ^
03:51:37 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - ^
03:58:64 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - ^

Even though the same type of beat appears in the song at these places it was hardest to follow, again there’s nothing wrong with just difficult to hit at these times.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Azure’s S.t.a.r.S:

I like this difficulty, even managed to pass it.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

S.t.a.r.S:

I didn’t pass this though, but I watched osu and it seems fine, I recommend:
00:38:42 (4) – Add a clap on the third beat.
00:41:37 (3) – Add a clap on the second beat.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That's all, great map, star.

That's all, great map, star.

My mapping style may be confusing but its because I tend to map at both the beats and the lyrics (in this case). But, i'll check into the hitsounds in [S.t.a.r.S] to make sure its in sync. Thanks for checking into the map though.

Offset -10

THIS IS SO LONG
Honestly, I reallllly don't think it would hurt to cut this shorter...

Sweet
00:42:96 (5) - Repeat sliders like this are tricky for beginners since it isn't obvious how many repeats there are. (I only point this out because it's the easiest difficulty)

Tasty
~

S.T.A.R.S
16M high score, but it's freakin hard so ok

Azure
00:57:28 (10,11) - when this came up I was like "wait, what??" It's pretty easy to mistake 10 for a slider
01:20:01 (5,6,1) - Doesn't flow well from the previous combo
01:21:14 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - REALLLLLLY MEAN AND NASTY you can't even see 6 coming
01:24:78 (4) - This slider's endpoint backtracks a tiny bit, fix?
01:29:55 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - The increasing distances don't really fit imo
01:54:78 (1) - I would move this a bit closer to 6
02:02:05 (1) - ^
02:28:42 (6) - Same star thing
02:35:69 (4,5,6,7,8,9) - RAGE AGAIN
02:54:67 (8,9,10) - Move these ahead 1/4
02:56:26 (4,5,6) - ^, then add a hitcircle where 4 started before
erg, the whole part until the break here could really use some work, it sounds/plays pretty awkward. Try to stick to an intuitive rhythm/beat
03:42:96 (1) - This star isn't as pretty and symmetrical as the other ones ;_;

My only other complaint is that difficulties jump from a hardish-normal to two crazy Insanes; it doesn't have a real "hard" level difficulty, where a large percentage of players fall on.

Well.... its going to be difficult to add in any other difficulties.... especially since the Credits was already completed...

Plus I took a look into the difficulty and there are plenty of errors/issues to work out like the note placement and the jumps. Also, I already have 3 full lengh hard maps......

I do wish I got this request sooner to make things much easier but like I said, the credits was already done plus the deadline at the overdue point... not trying to sound mean about it though....

Oh dear... (; ._.)

I'll make sure to fix that right now then.

All difficulties checked out. *yawn* Sorry, it's late. Have a star.

Looks so far just a reminder you need to pick what you want this map to go for approved or ranked.
IMO the map plays like a ranked map but it's score is way over the top.
Star worthy none the less( too bad I'm out of kudos ._.) Great work on this map I just hope it finds a home in the ranked/approved fourms soon

Hmm, while there's nothing too technically wrong with the beatmap, I can't help but getting the feeling that the hardest difficulty is a bit overmapped. And I guess the mapping style is a bit too linear for my taste I'll star this for now and see what other mods have to say about this map.

Thanks for checking into the map. I know my insane seems a bit intense, but I feel that it has to be really hard to make the score reasonable as well.

Or2......
[S.t.a.r.S.] : the distance are tooooooooo long! and the normal audio is too loud,turn down a little will be batter
and why don't you add Ex Boy's map? his map are good I think.Though some jumps are not very good \o/
~Give you a star for this good song~

Got the hitsounds adjusted but also, i'm not accepting anymore collab difficulties now. I'm trying to get this map ranked at this point.

pure love this song and all the maps for it,

epic work on this and i hope its ranked soon so take a s.t.a.r

Stop it, too much boobies of Yoko. <3

[Azure's S.t.a.r.S]:
01:55:69 (2) - Nazi: Move 1 up on Grid Level 3?
02:06:94 (4) - Nazi: Move 1 right on Grid Level 3?
02:35:69 (4,5,6,7,8,9) - Is one able to even see that (9) is actually 1/2 apart after bamming through all of those 1/4s earlier?

[S.t.a.r.S]:
03:50:23 (1,2,3) - Just for safety, check the hidden-ness of the second slider?

What's up with the Template Skin-esque elements in the song folder? If you insist on using those elements, then you might as well force the Default Skin by going to Song Setup > Storyboard > Preferred Skin > Default. oxo

Oh wow, I didn't notice that speed warning ever existed. Niiice. xD

I'm very unsure about the maximum scores here. This song is definitely challenging and is around that though, but Azure's is easier than whyme's, though the score difference is only a meager 40,000 or so.

Lol, silly me for not seeing the default skin selection (; ._.)
