I modded this because it got DQ'd and pointed out everything I thought could be improved taking what I think koreapenguin was trying to do in mind. I wasn't "forcing the mod to be longer than necessary". I can play this and I listed what bothered me while playing. I know my mods are lengthy and I still try to keep them as short as I can, but no, I was not "overmodding". There are things I disliked in this map, and I did not point them out because they didn't bother me while testplaying and are not actual issues. What I pointed out are things I considered to be issues, and it's up to the mapper whether or not he agrees they can be fixed. If he doesn't change them I'm not going to hunt him down to force him to.CXu wrote:
@Shiro: A lot of things you point out are very minor issues that mostly won't affect playability. While it's certainly good to fix some of them now that the map is DQd anyway, some issues seem like you're forcing the mod to be longer than necessary. For example, the background instruments kinda repeats at 00:19:757 - , so both NC and no NC works fine. Also, 00:27:681 - clearly has drums in the background and isn't overmapped. both 00:27:823 - and 00:27:893 - are harder to hear, but they are there, and starting on a blue tick is really not an issue at all when you're up towards 6-7 star maps. I mean, do you really think people that are capable of playing at this level will have issues with something like this? Well, I'm not actually going to go through your whole modpost, and koreanpenguin has probably already gone through it anyway, and I'm sure there are a lot of valid suggestions in your post, though I do think this is more a case of overmodding than anything else. You talk a lot about a lack of structure, but I'd say that "lack of structure" is the structure of the map, and while some people might not like this mapping style, it is a valid one and forcing another type of structure would make the map worse off than before. Also just as a sidenote, 00:32:351 - plays completely fine.
I won't check this map again unless the mapper wants further feedback or clarifications. I've done what I could to try to help this improve and get reranked, now it's not up to me to push this forward and keep trying to help.
EDIT: I misunderstood what you were saying = =
