We slightly adjusted the promotion process, as we revise mods now. Every applicant or nominated person comes along with 3 mods that shall be their "most significant ones" in latest time. Internally, we are revising this mods, albeit anonymized. If the mods, unknown who did them, were of sufficient quality, they passed and get promoted.

Quality mods were defined as: explanative enough, conclusive and solution oriented, attitude seemingly fine, finding errors and expressing them appropriately, sorta broad skill field (e.g. not only focussing on hitsounds, combos and aesthetics, but also trying to revise gameplay elements) and capable English skills. We did not know what map the mods were connected to. Therefore, we were unable to determine if the mods actually turned out helpful in this specific case. This is a loss coming along with the anonymization. But we could at least assure that all promoted BNs were somewhat able to perform helpfully looking mods that are expressing their intentions sufficiently - so we want to also let them try nominate beatmaps.

Everyone who did not fulfill the expectation received a personal message, explaining what they lack of. If they are able to fix that, they can reapply and will most likely get promoted, too.

Hi cuties, my nickname is Krfawy and it's kind of a huge problem for non-Slavic guys to pronounce it and I LVU it and I was trying to join BAT (also known as Blonde Ambition Tour), now BNG (Blonde Necromancer Group). I am really happy I could finally do it and I feel so blondful. >3< I LVU writing 'LVU' instead of 'love' and 'cowgratulations' instead of 'congratulations' because it's very fab and I'm a cute little blonde. Huehuehue! >83 I am known as the Master of Disaster in #polish and Polish community since they know me as a dream breaker and IDKWM but still cool. #ThePowerOfTrollness

OMG Krfawy is a Blonde Necromancer www

BTW I'm sad I'm the only Polish BN at the very moment #SummerTimeSadness ;__________________;

I saw somebody before doing it :p huehaha

I would suggest to some of new BN to not placehold everything that you see and like, specially when you can't bring what you want to do to end

  1. Do not pop bubbles with unsnapped blue lines.
  2. Do not placeholder in every map.
  3. You don't have to tell everyone you are a BN.
  4. Do not deny kudos from mods which are helpful to the mapper.
  5. Give KwaN a ticket every time you reply here.

You forgot rule #6 Kwan (*´︶`*)
6. I invalidate Kwan's rule #5
Krfawy
Hi Kurai! \o3o/

BTW#1: OMG so many rules #TooMuchForCuteBlondes

BTW#2: I have a question and I don't know where to write it, so - is there any thread with QAT's ranking criterias (where every QAT would write what he/she/it hates and loves and approves and stuff) so BNs would get less and less DQs? Because I don't think every DQ is caused by wrong timing and too big gaps but more of them "lack in quality". However, that is a very subjective word and I know everybody here is aware of that, so... Is there any thread like that? D:

EDIT: I can give a ticket to Kwan if only he qualified this: *CLICKIE*
Flask
Afaik there's nothing like that D: (or there is but we cant see bcz we arent powerful enough to see that)
But we probably could see it somewhen in the future!!!!1 (see this post, if you have any question while bubbling/qualifying a map, dont hesitate to ask other BNs or QATs for some opinion o3o/
Kodora
some another issues what I see very often in mods:

  1. Do not pop bubbles with unsnapped green lines unless they trigger kiai or not affecting notes correctly
  2. Do not mod useless green lines unless they're doubled at the same spot
  3. Do not suggest to delete single .osb file, it's unnecessary
  4. Do not mod widescreen support, it's completely unneeded and won't affect anything if map don't have any sb
  5. It's pointless to suggest disable letterbox during breaks if map doesn't have any breaks
  6. Decimal values for SV (e.g. SV being like 1.99999999876678) is fine
  7. Make sure your mod will be useful for mapper and will improve his map. Do not suggest something what mapper is going to reject for sure, try to understand mapper's mindset and focus on improving map at the most preferrable way for mapper. Wall of "blanket modding" which in 80% cases won't be even readed isn't going to be any useful either. Long mod doesn't always means that it's quality mod

just some my thoughts~

Afaik mode specific icons don't mean much anymore, since giving them out is 0 risk for the BNs who do as they don't get any punishment at all for the map being dq'd for the icon they gave. Doesn't make much sense, but as far as I'm concerned it's that way atm.

So currently a mode icon means "some BN of this mode thinks it's fine", so i personally don't know how much i can trust these icons anymore lol

4.) If a BN bubbles a map and it gets self-popped. Any BN can rebubble. Do not rank.
I don't think anyone cares about this. Like if the map has been self popped for a few days and you mod it and everything checks out fine why not qualify it lol.

never trust blue circle icons :c

Oh yeah, I forgot about such case. I typically re-bubble map if the map been self popped unless if I'm irc modding/forum modding to fix minor issues. Only then I will rank the map.
