Good Luck On Editing Beatmap Who Participate
Anyway, I think this contest is a great opportunity for many people who haven't tried mapping 1/3-songs yet.
Well, now doing something actually useful:
I agree with TGOC's complaint on Sonic Generations. The song is a bit repetitive and really doesn't work for a contest (unless you're trying to see who makes a less boring map out of that song, which... imo, isn't a good idea).
I also seriously don't like that 3rd song as it has an EXTREMELY repetitive beat, forcing people to map to the vocals, thus excluding any variation you could get.
Also, anecdotes from randoms in #modhelp effectively saying "wow that's odd" doesn't prove that the timing is incorrect. Moreso, if you actually knew what you were talking about, you would probably realize that it would also be incredibly unlikely for the tempo to be altered in this manner by an encoding error as you suggested.
First option isn't really an example of "you can variate" because it's the same song looped 4 times.
But I'm not complaining anymore.

Yesterday I was like, "Are they ever going to do another beatmapping contest? D:"
This timing is so awesome.
EDIT: ...Is Rooftop Run really 4:38? Why no cut?

awesome
Good luck to all mappers. (maybe include me, because i might be here, not sure yet)
Very surprised to see the HotD song in there! If only I had the time to map lately... The rules describe exactly the type of maps I always make, three diffs. with no special types for Taiko or CtB or Mania. Plus, the one song I recognize is nice and short. Shame the timing isn't up to snuff right now. That furthers makes me think I shouldn't try to join this. xD But good luck to the other participants! Can't wait to see what these judges consider as good maps... Heh! No pressure. B)
Ahh~
Good luck to all ^^

Isn't the Sonic track a bit long? It's awfully repetitious as well. All of these songs almost make me want to have a shot at this, but I'll probably become unhealthily stressed. Really not sure if I want that.
Oh no

Why do I get the feeling that despite Fuss Fuzz's default snap divisor being 1/3 we'll get some entrants shoving 1/4 streams in there anyways? >_>
not the best choice for videogame song

Concerns From the Community and Me
As you can see, even the judges agree with this.
"Rooftop Run" is the longest song in this whole collection we have to choose from and its the most repetitive.
It should be cut like all the other songs.
Link to Full Song here.
In the editor the song was timed as "144.993" BPM. How lazy can you get. This song is created by a computer. It's 145 bpm but it seems like whoever retrieved this song was too lazy to get a correct encoded version.
Artists don't just put decimal bpm. Especially 3 places out.
Maddy agrees.
Maddy agrees again.
I expect this to be changed. (And that shitty fade out.)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So in all honesty:
Based on the posts of this thread and the people I have spoken to. All of them have agreed. Out of the judges I spoke to. All agreed. that's 2/4 judges though. Couldn't contact the rest. Maddy a well known mapper and an amazing one at the also agrees. D33d an avid modder and speaker in #modhelp agrees.
It feels like this competition was made just to be difficult to the mappers and stressful. "See who can make the better shit."
Please take this all into consideration. Goodbye. Thanks to all for the support.
Rooftop Run is from a game called Sonic Generations. Now as most of you know Sonic uses songs that are meant to be a tad bit repetitive so they can repeat sections and have it still work. This does not work when in a mapping competition for a song. Repetitiveness is something that isn't liked by every mapper. So it would be a very biased vote. It's already a known fact that anyone who does "Rooftop Run" will not win this competition.ztrot wrote:

"Pink Nightmares", is a song by Infected Mushrrom and when listening to the full song and this cut version, you will realize that whoever shortened this clip, cut out the least mappable and worst parts of the song.ztrot wrote:

"Fuss Fuzz" is also a very repetitive song but the vocals save it. Have fun mapping on vocals for a 2 minute anime song that was apparently shortened. Pick a better song. It was timed wrong originally too. This has been brought up.ztrot wrote:

Its all Maddys fault
On topic though some suggestions:
Nice having three categories, but what about a vote with 5 songs from each category to let the community decide what to map?
With all the drama about timing, what about letting the mappers time the songs? Feels like an "Elite Mapper" should at least be able to time the song. Unless you pick some Roze-level track.

I haven't thought about all the stuff that got mentioned, but as I see it I can pretty much agree. I first started to map the Infected Mushroom song, but I stopped it pretty early already because it would even take me too much time to map the part as it's hard too map.
Wow, you didnt even start mapping and you already complain. What a mess.

Hey, I already finished a diff on Pink Nightmares :<
Eitherhow, yeah the BPM looks a bit weird and the Sonic song may be cut because of the repetativeness (if there's a good point to do that) but w/e, 2ct right here o:

Aside from Rooftop Run having too many loops I love these picks to death.
And BTW, people who map Rooftop Run will only be competing against other Rooftop Run maps.

Yeah but if you actually listen to it or play it you can tell that 145 BPM isn't proper. It's theoretical versus reality.TheGrimOfCrazy wrote:

There is a video version of Pink Nightmare, which the length is 4:15
This will not require any cuts and the fade out issue

I'll try my luck at Rooftop Run. I like the track and it isn't as repetitive as everyone's saying, just involves more creativity It's pretty much the "Marathon" category of this contest, as it's going to be hard to get 3 diffs done by the deadline.
It's pretty much the "Marathon" category of this contest, as it's going to be hard to get 3 diffs done by the deadline.Disregarding the song itself (I haven't actually checked it), you're wrong about this at least. It isn't that uncommon for electronic music to use BPMs like 120.5, not to mention that any DAW worth its salt will have access to fine tempo adjustment to at least three decimal places to be used at the artist's discretion. It does happen and can't really be considered an error.TheGrimOfCrazy wrote:

ztrot, you're using Rooftop Run (Classic) and it's not the Slam Jam version? Shoot, I already have 3.25 maps of that track done
I'd like to join, but these songs just... meh. Well, I'll be waiting for the next contest. Good luck to all mappers!
Didn't spot this when reading that post, but this is correct. IIRC even the Pokemon devs sometimes use some really... weird... timings.Jarby wrote:

[insert something here along the lines of "a good mapper should have the ability to map any song blah blah"]
A good mapper should have the ability to map any song, but why should he map something he don't like and won't enjoy mapping?
Then don't join ? I don't see the problem here. This is a free contest, which means anyone's free to enter - or not to enter. I have the feeling you're just here to complain about the songs. A bit more detailed feedback about what's wrong with these songs apart from personal taste would be welcome.
It was just a comment about the songs. Why feel offended like that?
By the way, the songs need a bit more variation. Most of them are really repetitive and are just the same beat over and over.

I have double-checked timing and while it is not what I would have used, is amply accurate (within 3ms throughout the song).

You can see and example for the 1st option.
Yep, like in the third song, where everyone will map to the vocals because the beat is extremely repetitive. What's the point on that?_tear wrote:

First option isn't really an example of "you can variate" because it's the same song looped 4 times.
But I'm not complaining anymore.
The first one is actually looped 2 times. Surely if it's possible to map crossing field 6 times, it should be no problem to map this just twice?
