2. Found unused .wav files: "soft-slidertick3.wav" and "normal-hitwhistle2.wav". You must delete them. Fixed
3. Inconsistency in combo colours: Easy diff is different from other diffs, so you might want to unify this combo colors. Fixed

Sorry for short modding ;w; Either that means that you did not find anything wrong with the rest of the beatmaps, or there were a lot of problems and it would have been a pain to go through all of them. I hope it is the former lol.
Good luck! Thanks.

Hey, I got bored xD
originally coming from your modding Q...
Maybe you can mod my map in return : https://osu.ppy.sh/s/322414

[General]

1. I don't think you really need to add kiai here 03:16:090 maybe if you want, you just have to turn the kiai on and turn it off again after that so the stars would just pop up to avoid too much kiai. I did quick bursts of kiai for that moment. Thanks for that.
2. Maybe you better put the audio preview before the chorus like here 01:02:705 or here 02:01:782 but it's up to you. Changed to the former time.

[Easy]

1. There's a DS problem, maybe you can fix it.
2. 00:09:166 (2,5) - Stack them? for neater look. For easy difficulties, there is no stacking
3. 00:11:474 (1) - Actually, ending this slider on blue tick causing a polarity problem... I think it can't be helped since you are following the vocal, but maybe you can change it by following the background sound instead... Fixed
4. 01:34:551 (2) - Adjust the shape more so the tick would fall on the pointy part...
5. 02:11:936 (3) - Same polarity problem, maybe just end it on white tick just like what you did on the previous part, like this 01:05:474 (3) - or 01:12:859 (4) - will do just fine. Fixed
6. 02:12:859 (1,4) - Stack the heads properly, again for neater looks. For easy difficulties, there is no stacking
7. 02:55:782 (3) - Again, just end it on white tick Fixed
8. Basically a good map, almost nothing to mod because you actually follow the rhythm well. But I think you must improve your blanket for neater looks, use approach circle as a guide. Most of your blankets, like this 00:20:243 (2,3) - or 00:27:628 (2,3) - or 03:21:628 (2,1) - and many more are imperfect, so you better fix them. Fixed

[Normal]

1. Almost look like Hard in first glance o-o maybe this should be Normal+ I do not know why this difficulty is rated so high.
2. Still, a DS problem, fix it. Fixed
3. 00:07:320 (1) - Why the lonesome combo? You don't change the SV right? don't need to NC right after. Oversight. Fixed
4. 00:11:474 (1,2) - Switch these two places. http://puu.sh/ilK73/7b29deb6eb.jpg Would follow the rhythm better. Fixed
5. 00:29:936 (1) - Extend the spinner here 00:33:166 and add a clap hitsound maybe? According to a previous modder [SoGa], he said that there should be at least a break of 2 beats for a spinner. Therefore there is no change.
6. 00:39:397 (5) - Move this to behind 00:40:090 (7) - so it looks like this http://puu.sh/ilKfR/c70daf142e.jpg it'll follow the vocal better. Fixed
7. 00:44:936 (2,3) - Switch place again, follow the vocal. http://puu.sh/ilKiT/7cd32ebd1c.jpg Fixed
8. 00:45:859 (4) - Move this behind 00:46:551 (6) - http://puu.sh/ilKlR/d8790dcb2e.jpg Fixed
9. 01:44:936 (1) - Unnecessary spinner, kinda out of place, just map this part.
10. 03:03:166 (5,6) - Delete (5), move (6) 1/2 tick forward and add a reverse, will fit better I think. http://puu.sh/ilKys/fd56340700.jpg
11. 03:09:859 (5) - Add a reverse? there's a pretty big sound here 03:10:320 Fixed that area. This area is probably the reason why my star difficulty is overrated.
12. Pretty good as well ^^, just need some improvement, again, in placing. Ah, and some note: I know it's better to start a slider on white tick, but if there's vocal that support, you can add slider at red tick to follow it; there are plenty in this song.

[Hard]

1. Circle size from 3 (in Normal) to 4.5 is a pretty big jump in diff, why don't just use CS 4? It's not comfortable to play with too small CS as well. I started with cs 5, because with cs4 it felt too cluttered and really easy. Cs 5 was too much of a hassle so I decided to settle on cs 4.5.
2. 00:06:859 Add a note here for better polarity? :3 Does not fit
3. 00:20:936 (8,12) - Stack properly~ Changed in remake. There is no stack there.
4. 01:25:320 (1,2,3) - This don't seem to fit well at the part, just keep the notes on white and red tick for this instrumental part. Changed in remake.
5. No break? A break here is actually pretty good 02:17:013 You need some break to adjust position, especially for mouse player (like me x-x) Did a break at 01:17:936. I did not put a break at 02:17:013 because this is mapped differently to the rest of the song, and I really wanted to map it.
6. Yeah, you're right, this is almost like old map, but better. I don't really like this kind of map so I can't really mod it; but that doesn't mean your map is bad, it's good, I have to say but you need to improve your placement, again ^^ Fixed a lot of stuff.
   I did a full remake of hard, so most of the stuff you mentioned does not apply here .

I'll end my mod here, I think the other Hard is not my type as well xD
Good luck~ :3

Damn score

uhh, dat misses >.<

1. I don't like small circles (CS>4)
2. I can see that sometimes the blankets are imperfect and there are some overlaps, it looks untidy
3. I don't really like double triplets. Like this http://puu.sh/iqDwV/09cab373a9.jpg got a lot of 100 there.
4. A slider like this 00:58:321 (8) - don't seem to fit the vocal. Use it for wiggle sound.
5. 01:02:243 (7) - This slider sounds weird... A note here 01:01:090 followed by a spinner would be better...
6. And I don't like this kind of rhythm 02:17:705 (5,6) - nothing wrong, just disliked it. Missed there.
7. And damn that speed up at end >.< Missed a lot there xD
8. 02:54:743 (5,6,7,8) - Combo breaker for me. The rhythm is kinda weird, four time stream, tricky for me. Plus the shape make it even harder.

Hi, requested test play

Damn score

uhh, dat misses >.<

Asking me to testplay is like telling me to mod according to my taste, so this is what I think

1. I don't like small circles (CS>4) I like small circles. The return of CS4+ Hard difficulties are imminent.
2. I can see that sometimes the blankets are imperfect and there are some overlaps, it looks untidy Fixing that at the moment.
3. I don't really like double triplets. Like this http://puu.sh/iqDwV/09cab373a9.jpg got a lot of 100 there.
4. A slider like this 00:58:321 (8) - don't seem to fit the vocal. Use it for wiggle sound. Extended the slider by 1 tick and it seems to be better than before.
5. 01:02:243 (7) - This slider sounds weird... A note here 01:01:090 followed by a spinner would be better... Fixed and applied it at another location. Amazingly all my difficulties have the same amount of sliders now.
6. And I don't like this kind of rhythm 02:17:705 (5,6) - nothing wrong, just disliked it. Missed there. Tried to employ variety between double notes and the slider.
7. And damn that speed up at end >.< Missed a lot there xD I did that on purpose, since I like to speed up the slider velocity around 40% from the finish.
8. 02:54:743 (5,6,7,8) - Combo breaker for me. The rhythm is kinda weird, four time stream, tricky for me. Plus the shape make it even harder. Changed Shape

That's all, no kudos. Thanks for testplay. It seems to me that the rework has worked.
Good luck

1. 00:06:397 (4) - copy paste next slider shape, doesnt really look that good with two sliders side by side with different shapes. would also blanket which looks cleaner.
   00:07:320 (5) - nc
2. 00:11:474 (1) - I don't think it's any different from previous verse, I think you should map this instead
   00:14:705 (2,1) - swap nc to follow vocals, I think thats better because easy-normal generally map after vocals over percussion so might aswell nc accordingly. there are more like these but you can find them
3. 00:26:243 (1,3) - these are curved a bit too much, the blanketing is weird because of it and i think it'd look better straightened out just a little little bit
4. 00:39:628 (5) - fix like this http://puu.sh/iNMwk.jpg
5. 00:46:090 (3) - also excessively curved, you should try to make the borders of the circle have equal distance to the sliderborders http://puu.sh/iNMyZ.jpg
6. 00:56:705 (2) - might be hard to play for newer players, sliders that pushes the flow so much like this is generally only used in insane or higher
7. 01:05:013 (2) - move up one box (4 pixels)
8. 01:06:397 (4) - move this one up a bit looks better imo
9. 01:14:705 (1) - unnecessary nc
10. 01:56:243 (3) - clap

1. 00:09:166 (3,4) - doesnt flow well from previous slider, try this 00:09:166 (3,4) -
2. 00:11:474 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - this whole rhythm is too difficult compared to previously imo, you had mostly 1/1 and 3/4 before and now theres a lot of 1/2 which can be overwhelming, or map the beggining with this rhythm, as long as its consistent
   00:14:705 (7,1) - excessively curved
3. 00:16:551 (2,3,4) - try placing like this, flows nicer and (2) isnt so close to previous slider http://puu.sh/iNNc3.jpg
4. 00:53:705 (6) - can place 1/1 slider here instead to follow held sound of vocal
5. 00:24:628 (4,5,6) - ctrl+h flows better, but you need to adjust next objects a bit
6. 00:34:782 (4) - center red anchor point and curve less looks better
7. 00:53:705 (6) - can place 1/1 slider here instead to follow held sound of vocal
8. 01:08:705 (4) - curve less
9. 01:12:397 (4) -
10. 01:56:243 (4) - clap
11. 02:57:166 (7,1) - swap nc
12. 03:21:628 (6) - you should never have more than one repeat unless its 1/4 sliders in hards or higher, no one ever uses more than 1 for longer slider in modern maps, so players naturally move away from the slider after the first repeat and so they will break.
13. 03:27:859 (4) - previous pattern doesnt flow well into this, you can just ctrl+h 03:27:859 (4,5,6,7,8,9,10) -

1. 00:03:628 - I think you should map this whole section with a slower sv, and slightly smaller spacing, because right now its keeping the same momentum as 00:18:859 - even though is a lot calmer.
2. 00:08:243 (2) - curve less
3. 00:13:320 (6) - not very good blanket
4. 00:14:705 (9) - copy paste 00:15:628 (2) - slider shape and ctrl+h+j
5. 00:21:166 (9) - curve less
6. 02:09:166 (10) - kinda confusing stacked under triplet, easier to read if you stack under previous slider
7. 02:17:705 (5,6) - stack looks better and more comfortable to play, i dont think there should be movement like this on doubles. doubles are actually difficult enough to play because its harder to keep rhythm on them, and doubles are pretty new to people playing hard diffs, so make them moving only makes them more annoying. there are more like these that i think you should fix.
8. 02:17:013 - same as first point, this section is a breakdown and should be slower
9. 02:54:166 (2,4,5) - overlap, move up 02:54:628 (4,5) -
10. 03:12:397 (1,2,3) - theres too much momentum in this pattern, notice how your cursor moves at pretty constant speed until you come to this where it has to speed up a lot without any change in music I think you should just follow the rhythm and melody.
11. 03:19:782 (1) - stack sliderend on previous slider looks better
12. 03:29:705 (10) - move this to x413 y122 and it flows better, move everything else down with it.

The map doesn't have many patterns, everything is basically in a line. You should add some patterns like zig zags or stars or doubles or something. I wanted the hard map to be a linear style. I did add zig zags though. I will perhaps add stars and stuff.




Overall the two Hard difficulties are over mapped and feel awkward to play . I don't like all of those sliders that end on the blue ticks, they feel really awkward and out of place. Even though there may be a beat on some of those blue ticks it feels much better when you end on a red or white tick.

Based on your hard mod I decided to make a Hard- Diff. It is much simpler than the current hard diff and involves a lot more patterns. I am making a few changes to the current hard diff so its more fun to play.

Good luck with the map

1. 00:53:936 (1) - nazi blanket things
2. 01:45:166 (1,2) - you can move the 01:47:936 (2) - to avoid overlaps.
3. 02:36:859 (1) - blanket

1. 01:09:859 - missing clap note?
2. 01:16:782 (2) - better pattern.
3. 03:05:013 (1,2,3,4) - convert it to two 1/2 sliders, this may too extreme for normal which is more than 4 1/2 circles in a row with this diff (2 star below).
4. 03:08:705 (1,2,3,4) - ^
5. 03:10:551 (1,2,3,4) - ^ and so on...
6. and maybe remove some spinners like 00:29:936 (1) - and 02:14:705 (1) - that can obviously map by 1/1 and 1/2 beats.

1. 00:09:397 (3,2) - nazi stack.
2. 01:15:397 (1) - you can map this part ;w;
3. 01:46:436 (1) - I can understand about following the vocals but there's stronk beat like 01:46:782 - and 01:47:013 - so ye consider to remove spinner
4. 02:02:474 (2) - remove it or add note in 01:03:397 -
5. 02:06:397 (3) - Slider's curve is out of the area.
6. 02:11:013 (2) - nazi parallel
7. 02:17:013 - you can add note here already since it's hardddd

1. 00:29:705 (6,7,1) - unstack it from 00:29:474 (5) - since beat-gap is changing
2. 03:14:936 (3,4,5,6,7) - polish the zig-zag
3. 03:19:320 (7,1,2,3,4) - polish the star

1. 00:10:320 (3,5) - you can avoid touching them.
2. 01:00:397 (1) - remove this? previous finish sound was covered and it's hard to hit
3. 01:16:782 (4) - not snapped in white tick
4. 01:32:243 (12,2) - stack them may better.
5. 01:47:243 (1) - convert it into two circles since 01:47:474 - as slider-end is weird
6. 01:54:628 (1,2) - swap NC
7. 02:17:013 - you can add circle here ;w;

   The reason I won't change that is after the final chorus, the rhythm represents what you may expect in the next difficulty. This is preparation for that.
6. and maybe remove some spinners like 00:29:936 (1) - and 02:14:705 (1) - that can obviously map by 1/1 and 1/2 beats. Every diff of mine has 7 spinners. Osu needs more spinners

3. 01:46:436 (1) - I can understand about following the vocals but there's stronk beat like 01:46:782 - and 01:47:013 - so ye consider to remove spinner 7 spinners.
4. 02:02:474 (2) - remove it or add note in 01:03:397 - I did not change that, because this is a progressive increase in the difficulty.
5. 02:06:397 (3) - Slider's curve is out of the area. Damn. Well fixed that and changed successive pattern after that.
6. 02:11:013 (2) - nazi parallel Fixed it
7. 02:17:013 - you can add note here already since it's hardddd. Reason for not adding the note is because I wanted to start the break there and then I could drag the green thing to have an effect.

[Hard]

1. 00:29:705 (6,7,1) - unstack it from 00:29:474 (5) - since beat-gap is changing Fixed.
2. 03:14:936 (3,4,5,6,7) - polish the zig-zag Fixed
3. 03:19:320 (7,1,2,3,4) - polish the star I used ctrl+shift+d as a guide so it should be perfect. Moved some notes a bit anyway.

I need more ClariS aaaaaaaaaaaa I like ClariS, not ClareN imo. ClariS were ying and yang but with ClareN there is no balance. In addition songs in the past had meaning and emotion.

   1. 01:15:171 - snap to 01:15:166
3. The "Combo 2" in Easy didn't have exactly the same colour as the other diffs.
4. You used different BGs. Try having the same size for all BGs. And the recommended size is either 1024*768 or 1366*768.

1. 00:34:551 (1,2) - 00:39:628 (2,1) - 02:53:936 (1,2) .
2. 02:58:782 (1) - I think the spinner should have started here 03:00:166 and ended here 02:58:782 (1) instead.
3. The diff overall looks fine, but sometimes you just emphasized the patterns and blankets so much that it ruins the flow, not that's a big deal but it would be very nice if you can do sth about them. Like 00:26:243 (1,2,1) for example, in my opinion you're trying too much to make this a pattern, so this ruins the flows on 00:27:628 (2) . Also you can see that the flow here 00:25:320 (2,1) isn't perfect compared to 00:28:090 (1,2) . So my opinion is sometimes you just have to give up the pattern and focus on the flow for the sake of beginners, like what you did in Normal.

1. 00:24:859 (3,4) - Stacked objects here would ruin the flow imo. Same applies to 00:27:859 (5,1) -
2. 00:59:474 (1) - Change this into a 1/2 slider so it would fit the rhythm.
3. 01:14:705 (2,3) - Weird flow imo.
4. 03:12:397 (1,2,3,4) - LOL this will confuse beginners, try some easier patterns please.
5. 03:16:551 (3,4) - These should be unstacked so they would emphasize the strong sound better. Same applies to 03:29:474 (3,4) .

1. 01:07:320 (2,3) - Weird flow. Mainly because you're trying for a symmetry on 01:06:397 (1,2) .
2. 01:08:705 (1) - Try rotate this a bit(anti-clockwise) for a better flow.
3. 01:59:473 (3,4,5,6) - LOL, feels weird because you mapped these 01:59:705 (4,5,6) on vocal but I'm not sure if 01:59:473 (3) matches anything. Similar case applies to 02:01:782 (1,2,1,2) . When you're trying to do a pattern, make sure that every objects in that pattern are emphasizing the same thing to avoid confusion.
4. 02:24:628 (2,3) - Weird overlap lol, try spaced them more because it's almost stacked.
5. 02:40:782 (4,1) - I would suggest something similar to this for a better flow.
6. 02:56:243 (3) - I wouldn't recommend to end this on the blue tick because it can cause a confusion to players.

All of things above were last checked on 31 December (9:00 UTC) . I'm mentioning this just in case you already changed something after I checked all those things.

For now I am still thinking about BG choices, whether I go with one or many. Most likely my new upload will only have 1 background, because in case I do go for a storyboard it is much easier to design everything when you only consider 1 background.
[Easy]

1. 00:34:551 (1,2) - 00:39:628 (2,1) - 02:53:936 (1,2) . Is this about distance snap?

I do agree with the above part. Made it into a different pattern that should be a lot easier to read.

Also fixed missing hitsounds and did some touchups.

[Normal]

1. 00:24:859 (3,4) - Stacked objects here would ruin the flow imo. Same applies to 00:27:859 (5,1) - Fixed, but at the same time the map looks nicer with stacks. I will leave some stacked notes and fix others.
2. 00:59:474 (1) - Change this into a 1/2 slider so it would fit the rhythm. How did I not catch that? Thanks. It sounds better.
3. 01:14:705 (2,3) - Weird flow imo. Fixed, rotated the previous slider because
4. 03:12:397 (1,2,3,4) - LOL this will confuse beginners, try some easier patterns please. Easier Pattern
5. 03:16:551 (3,4) - These should be unstacked so they would emphasize the strong sound better. Same applies to 03:29:474 (3,4) Done.

[Hard-]

1. 01:07:320 (2,3) - Weird flow. Mainly because you're trying for a symmetry on 01:06:397 (1,2) . I understand your point. Even if the note is distance snapped, because there is a beat at 01:08:013 it would be much smoother to have a note at 01:08:013. I made 3 into a 1/2 slider because I want 444 objects.
2. 01:08:705 (1) - Try rotate this a bit(anti-clockwise) for a better flow. Edited the shape so it flows better
3. 01:59:473 (3,4,5,6) - LOL, feels weird because you mapped these 01:59:705 (4,5,6) on vocal but I'm not sure if 01:59:473 (3) matches anything. (3) is mapped to a beat and without 3 I do not have a star pattern. I know that may not hold well, so I have added hitfinishes to 4 5 and 6 to make the vocal bit more prominent.Similar case applies to 02:01:782 (1,2,1,2) . When you're trying to do a pattern, make sure that every objects in that pattern are emphasizing the same thing to avoid confusion. I do see where you are going with this. If I make 1 2 into a 1/2 slider I do lose the pattern and (444) hitobjects. However if someone else picks up on this then I will fix both points.
4. 02:24:628 (2,3) - Weird overlap lol, try spaced them more because it's almost stacked. That is due to slow slider velocity and distance snap. And the vocal bit is at the blue tick, so you have to play it as a double.
5. 02:40:782 (4,1) - I would suggest something similar to this for a better flow. Fixed
6. 02:56:243 (3) - I wouldn't recommend to end this on the blue tick because it can cause a confusion to players. I did that same pattern throughout the song, so I assume players would be used to that.

Well, I guess I will stop here because I'm not good with CS4.5 / 5 things. I will come back to mod higher diffs later tho.

[easy]

1. 00:12:859 (1) - I think this would play better as a 1/1 slider, for an easy diff anyways Fixed. It makes sense considering it is the beginning of the song as well.
2. 00:47:013 (2,3,4,1,2) - I feel like 2 of these circles should be made into a slider, but thats just me I do understand that sliders would be good for an easy diff, but I will lose the pentagon.
3. 00:56:705 (2) - copy and paste this slider 00:55:782 (1) and rotate 180 degrees. I copied the slider and flipped vertically already, so there will be no change here.
4. 02:12:859 (1) - would play better if you made into 2 1/1 sliders like you did here 01:13:782 (1,2) . If you choose not to do this then I recommend you change the shape since isnt the prettiest one imo Did the former. 2 1/1 sliders are much better
5. 02:15:166 (1) - extend to 02:17:013 ? I lose that green bar, but extending the spinner is much better as newer players will probably not spin that fast, and may fail if the spinner is too short.
6. 03:21:628 (1) - ds How did I not catch that?
7. 03:21:628 (1) - I recommend extending this to 03:22:320 and deleting 03:22:320 (2) See the below point. Will keep this in mind though.
   
   you started using more complicated rhythms towards the end of the map, I think it would be better to stick with the rhythms youve used before since there isnt really a need to make it harder than it needs to be, I mean after all, it is an easy diff. A true beginner wont get bored of playing the same rhythm if thats all hes capable of.
   
   My idea is that for the last part of each of my difficulties, I use a pattern that the person might expect in the the next difficulty. The 1/2 sliders you see at the end are what you are going to see in the normal difficulty; this prepares the person for the next difficulty. If someone else picks up on this I will just revert to an easier rhythm.

[Normal]

1. 00:11:013 (2,3) - have the 2 patterns shaped this way?
   
   Looks a lot better
2. 00:18:859 (1) - curve this slider a bit like you did for 00:12:282 (2) Did a small curve.
3. 00:23:936 (1,2,3,4) - this would flow better if you changed the positions slighty
   
   I understand what you mean; the current one looks too cramped. Spaced that out a bit, while still having 0.9x distance snap.
4. 01:42:397 (2) - tilt the slider this way maybe?
   
   Fixed
5. 02:14:705 (1) - same as easy - extend to 02:17:013 ? Fixed
6. 02:35:936 (2) - would look prettier if you moved it up a bit imo
   
   Fixed
7. 02:55:320 (3) - I really think the overlap looks sloppy; rotate it this way (or somewhere similar)?
   
   Tilted it in a different way.

Thats all from me for now. I just finished watching the anime and visual novels to this song and I must say, Ayase is best girl! Mecheman also likes Ayase as well, though he rotates between Kanako (Meruru), Kirino and Ayase. I say Ayase is a close 2nd and Kirino is bae.

GL going for ranked! Thanks

   SPOILER

   
   
   I used slider tick rate 2 before, but the reason why I used tick rate 4 was because as my hitsounding involves adding a clap every 2 ticks, and sometimes they land in the middle or just after the middle of a slider. That means I have to use the tick method for having a clap sound. The problem with that though is that with slider rates of 2 or less, is that there is no tick for me to make a clap sound on. This only happens in 4-5 instances, but I cannot accept that.
   
   If someone else has a complaint with this then I will fix it.
   
7. this mapset why need 'hard-' diff? i think spread fine

A modder named Hendrix89 played my Hard and Mecheman's difficulty, and he/she said that the map felt quite overmapped. Rather than destroying the rhythm which I liked in my difficulty (this was 3-4 months ago), I decide to to make a Hard- (you guys will probably call this hard actually) difficulty which has fewer hitobjects, a slower slider velocity and much more player friendly. I also use rhythm patterns that you will find in the Hard difficulty, so people are prepared in advance for the much harder difficulty on hand.

• Easy

1. Use 2downbeat NC term Fixed
2. 00:22:551 (1) - this slide end here 00:23:474 - and put in 00:23:936 - here
3. 00:41:013 (1) - ^same 00:41:936 - end here 00:42:397 - here put in circle
4. 02:07:782 (1,2,1) - blanket you can be better Removed blanket
   
   SPOILER

   
5. 02:26:243 (1) - red anchor move on tick Fixed
   
   SPOILER

   
6. 02:32:243 (2) - just make curve slide Fixed
7. 02:36:859 (1,1) - avoid stack

Shortened the blanket slider so I will have to place the blanketed note elsewhere. This will fix the stacking problem.

• Normal

1. i dont agree not same DS ;w; 00:15:628 (2,3) - like here Probably will make a change in DS for the whole map.
2. and try drum mapping because your vocal rhythm something part so hard Here when vocals are more prominent it seems like a waste not to map them. However, I do map to the rhythm part as well.
3. 00:20:243 (4) - put in circle ;00:18:859 (1,2,3,4) - 00:20:705 (1,2,3,4) - that's same music so just use same rhythm Problem is that slider 4 links up with the next pattern, and so changing it to a circle will destroy the flow.
   - Case 1: I keep it - Improves flow and sounds nice, but is not consistent.
   - Case 2: I do not keep it - I lose some flow and when that is a strong beat, why waste it? However it is consistent.
   If I do a huge change in distance snap, then I may apply case 2
   
   
4. 00:41:013 (1,2,3,4,5,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4) - rhythm train too long; empty something point Removed 43:782
5. 01:05:013 (1) - suggest ;like this
   
   SPOILER

   
6. 02:39:974 (2,3,4,1) - avoid square flow and 02:39:974 (2,1) - here overlap too Yes it looks really cramped.

So 0.9x distance snap will still be fine, but I need to fix up the patterns.

• Hard

1. Do not triple spam that's strange to me
2. Inherit (green) timing line is unsnapped:
   01:15:171 {75171}
3. 00:31:551 (6) - this note 00:31:782 (1) - stack here ;that's flow better
4. 00:44:936 (2,3,4) - that's overmapping;00:45:051 (3) - here is no sound You are right, although the triplet sounds nice.
5. 01:53:359 (3,6) - ^ Applied.
6. 02:44:705 (1,2,3) - do not stack 02:37:320 (1,2,3) - i recommend like here Ok
7. 02:58:782 (1) - avoid 3reverse Avoided
8. 03:16:090 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) - add some slide Sure.
9. 03:24:628 (5,2) - stack I think I did that, probably the stacking thing is osu makes it look weird.

Thanks mod my map Well 2 maps when combined have a higher drain time than my map. However this is a small thing.
but i think this mapset need so many work

01:50 Taeyang: Good luck have fun mapping~!
01:51 RVMathew: Sure. Remember though that we have two very different mapping styles (I look at older style maps, but have the rhythm you find in todays maps).
01:51 RVMathew: Take care

1. A silent sliderslide is better than a silent slidertick on this music, try this out... (if you adjusted slidertick to 1)

1. 00:04:090 (1,2,1,2) - You should use less frequent new combos on this diff. I see on some parts that you use NC on every 4 white ticks. It should be on every 8 white ticks. Frequent NCs defeat the usage itself.
2. 00:12:859 (1) - This is Ez and you shouldn't be using 1/2 sliders and makes it complex...
3. On most part of the song, there is only 1/1 breaks and it is tiring for players who can't handle this. You should "leave plenty of recovery time."
4. 02:58:782 (1) - Spinner too short on this part (and also the recovery time)

1. 00:16:551 (3) - Delete note, there is no beat.
2. 00:24:628 (2) - Delete note, because of the high piano note at 00:23:936 (1)
3. 00:43:782 (2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4) - 1/2 notes are very spammy on this part. Adjust some to 1/1
4. 01:53:936 (2,3,4) - Too hard imo. Make 01:54:166 (3,4) into a slider or something similar to that.
5. 03:08:705 (1,2,3,4), etc - ^

1. The diff name should be Average, Medium or something like that. I'll be asking BN regarding this.
2. 00:23:936 (1) - A slider point is out of the editing screen.
3. 01:49:090 (1,2,3) - This slider needs to be blanketed
4. 02:44:705 (1,2,3) - Stacked sliders this way are very confusing for some.
5. 02:58:782 (1) - Two 1/2 sliders would be better on this part imo.

1. Circle size should be 4.5 or 4 for the diffivulty spread (Mecheman Loves Meruru Now has CS of 4.5)

I wasn't even asked by Neil, but yeah I agree that there are more meaningful ways to label an easier hard
Average, Medium, Advanced, Intermediate are probably going to be all right.

6. Use one slidetick; sound better
   
   SPOILER

   
   
   I used slider tick rate 2 before, but the reason why I used tick rate 4 was because as my hitsounding involves adding a clap every 2 ticks, and sometimes they land in the middle or just after the middle of a slider. That means I have to use the tick method for having a clap sound. The problem with that though is that with slider rates of 2 or less, is that there is no tick for me to make a clap sound on. This only happens in 4-5 instances, but I cannot accept that.
   
   If someone else has a complaint with this then I will fix it.
   
7. this mapset why need 'hard-' diff? i think spread fine

A modder named Hendrix89 played my Hard and Mecheman's difficulty, and he/she said that the map felt quite overmapped. Rather than destroying the rhythm which I liked in my difficulty (this was 3-4 months ago), I decide to to make a Hard- (you guys will probably call this hard actually) difficulty which has fewer hitobjects, a slower slider velocity and much more player friendly. I also use rhythm patterns that you will find in the Hard difficulty, so people are prepared in advance for the much harder difficulty on hand.

• Easy

1. Use 2downbeat NC term Fixed
2. 00:22:551 (1) - this slide end here 00:23:474 - and put in 00:23:936 - here
3. 00:41:013 (1) - ^same 00:41:936 - end here 00:42:397 - here put in circle

1. i dont agree not same DS ;w; 00:15:628 (2,3) - like here
2. and try drum mapping because your vocal rhythm something part so hard
3. 00:20:243 (4) - put in circle ;00:18:859 (1,2,3,4) - 00:20:705 (1,2,3,4) - that's same music so just use same rhythm
4. 00:41:013 (1,2,3,4,5,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4) - rhythm train too long; empty something point

5. 01:53:359 (3,6) - ^
6. 02:44:705 (1,2,3) - do not stack 02:37:320 (1,2,3) - i recommend like here
7. 02:58:782 (1) - avoid 3reverse
8. 03:16:090 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) - add some slide

Thanks mod my map
but i think this mapset need so many work
First,improve your mapping skills, and find mapping teacher
second, see more BNs,QATs,best mapper's map that's help for your mapping ability
Good luck~!

I map with a ruler, also known as the distance snap tool.
Once my main computer is fixed I will apply these.

A nice chat with Taeyang

15:56 RVMathew: You can ignore the final diff, as it has some pending mods
15:56 Taeyang: ok
15:56 RVMathew: Thanks. And i will mod another map to make the drain time fair

Hi, ordinary modding from my queue
[Overall]

1. A silent sliderslide is better than a silent slidertick on this music, try this out... (if you adjusted slidertick to 1) I actually like the slider slide. Anyways if I change slider tick, it will be to slidertick rate 2 (still fine) and then add sliderslide.

[Easy]

1. 00:04:090 (1,2,1,2) - You should use less frequent new combos on this diff. I see on some parts that you use NC on every 4 white ticks. It should be on every 8 white ticks. Frequent NCs defeat the usage itself. Fixed in Taeyang's mod.
2. 00:12:859 (1) - This is Ez and you shouldn't be using 1/2 sliders and makes it complex... That is a 1/1 slider I am using it currently. It does look short so I understand why someone may think it is 1/2 slider.
3. On most part of the song, there is only 1/1 breaks and it is tiring for players who can't handle this. You should "leave plenty of recovery time." The settings should compensate for that, and if I tried doing 2/1 or 1/1 everything goes upside down.
4. 02:58:782 (1) - Spinner too short on this part (and also the recovery time) Will map that bit.

[Normal]

1. 00:16:551 (3) - Delete note, there is no beat. Fixed
2. 00:24:628 (2) - Delete note, because of the high piano note at 00:23:936 (1) That ruins the rhythm. However, you mentioned about the piano note, which is a strong beat; I changed that area into 2 1/2 sliders, instead of a 1/2 slider with a repeat and a note. It sounds a lot better.
3. 00:43:782 (2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4) - 1/2 notes are very spammy on this part. Adjust some to 1/1 Instead, changed the rhythm to 2x 1/2 sliders with 1 repeat and removed 2 notes.
4. 01:53:936 (2,3,4) - Too hard imo. Make 01:54:166 (3,4) into a slider or something similar to that. Fixed.
5. 03:08:705 (1,2,3,4), etc - ^ Prepares you for the next difficulty.

[Hard-]

1. The diff name should be Average, Medium or something like that. I'll be asking BN regarding this.
2. 00:23:936 (1) - A slider point is out of the editing screen. Removed the repeat so I could do a different pattern and avoid this problem.
3. 01:49:090 (1,2,3) - This slider needs to be blanketed I did do that, but refined it more. It does introduce new problems though such as overlap, but some sacrifices have to be made.
4. 02:44:705 (1,2,3) - Stacked sliders this way are very confusing for some. Will fix it.
5. 02:58:782 (1) - Two 1/2 sliders would be better on this part imo. Fixed to 1 1/2 slider and 2x notes from Taeyang's mod.

[Hard]

1. Circle size should be 4.5 or 4 for the diffivulty spread (Mecheman Loves Meruru Now has CS of 4.5)
   I will probably keep cs5; if I do 4, it will be cramped. I have tried 4.5 but not in this iteration before. I only kept 4.5 until Hendrix89's mod, in which I redid everything and used cs5 while reworking it.

That's all I can mod for now. I recommend that you look for some BN-made or recently ranked beatmaps for you to have a guide on mapping. I did this on my 1st beatmap.
MLMN diff should have neat slider placements btw. Good luck on mapping!

1. SKINNING ELEMENTS: While skinning, try to use the whole elements which belong to the nature of each element. This means if you skinned hitcircle.png, then add all the elements that relates to it. Here's a list of them. Please, refer to this for further information.
   1. approachcircle.png
   2. hitcircleoverlay.png
   3. hitcircleselect.png
   4. followpoint.png
   5. lighting.png
   The same goes for section-fail.png there are few elements which must be added too:
   
   1. play-skip.png
   2. play-warningarrow.png
   There's a problem with naming your combobursts because comboburst-2.png isn't appearing anywhere. This is because your first comboburst doesn't refer to "one" so the second comboburst would never appear unless you rename it to:
   
   l comboburst.png must be renamed to comboburst-1.png (In this way, comboburst-2 will appear naturally while playing.)
   
2. BG FOLDER SIZE: It's not a bid deal but it would be better if you convert Stardust_Witch_Meruru.png into .jpg for reducing the overall weight of the set. Since you added some .png images, it would hurt no one if the file were .jpg instead of .png.

1. 00:47:013 (4,5,6,1,2) Over Easy difficulties, placing many circles together would get hard for beginners to click them properly because of the density of them. It would be better if you change some of them for 1/1 sliders which would fit awesomely in this part.
2. 01:36:859 (2) Please, remove the whistle of the slider-head to let the clap sound stronger here, just as well as you did here 01:35:013 -
3. 02:37:320 (4,5) Here I was waiting the double clap you used in the previous kiais which sound greatly here. Please, consider doing the same here too 02:44:705 (4,5)

1. 00:06:743 (2) Add a note here for consistency with the following patterns.
2. 00:36:628 (5) Ctrl + G here to develop a more readable flow. Consider doing the same here 01:48:628 (3)
3. 02:10:090 (1) Remove NC here. It's not necessary.
4. 03:08:474 (5,6,1) Oh please, don't do this kind of triplets on this diff because they would make more sense if you replace them for 1/4 sliders with one reverse. Consider doing the same here 03:23:243 (5,6,1) - 03:27:051 (4,1) -

Hai from modreqs. I liked the song so here I am.

POSITIVE ASPECTS I can't deny how awesome the hitsounds fit with the song over all the difficulties, even in the easiest one. You did a great job there and seems you improved since the time you submitted the map. I love the first comboburst.png so bad so you should teach me to use transparent images like that on my maps. Keep working on it and never give up! Thanks. I have renewed vigor for completing this map.

Changed. I manged to reduce the size from around 1.63mb to at least 468kb. That should help a lot with download.

[Easy] No major issues find. This diff is really great. Thank you.

1. 00:47:013 (4,5,6,1,2) Over Easy difficulties, placing many circles together would get hard for beginners to click them properly because of the density of them. It would be better if you change some of them for 1/1 sliders which would fit awesomely in this part. Changed 2 notes to a 1/1 slider. Also managed to make it symmetrical with 00:47:474 (5) - so it looks a lot better.
2. 01:36:859 (2) Please, remove the whistle of the slider-head to let the clap sound stronger here, just as well as you did here 01:35:013 - Fixed

[Hard-] First at all, this diff plays well but should be renamed to Advanced because of the overall patterning you manage. Thank you. Regarding the name, this has been the subject of controversy, but the reason why I put Hard- is because this is the hard difficulty, just with most of the hit objects simplified.

1. 00:06:743 (2) Add a note here for consistency with the following patterns. After asking Happyrocket for clarification, this is regarding a different note which I have added.
2. 00:36:628 (5) Ctrl + G here to develop a more readable flow. Consider doing the same here 01:48:628 (3) I like the current one for now.
3. 02:10:090 (1) Remove NC here. It's not necessary. Oversight. Fixed
4. 03:08:474 (5,6,1) Oh please, don't do this kind of triplets on this diff because they would make more sense if you replace them for 1/4 sliders with one reverse. Consider doing the same here 03:23:243 (5,6,1) - 03:27:051 (4,1) Removed those triplets because it does not make sense to have it. Even if I did your 1/4 slider with repeat, it does not make the music sound any better.-

[]
Overall not a bad map, but consider asking for more mods. There are still issues which could improve in all difficulties. Good luck!

Now that the map is actually complete and not pending major changes, I can go ahead and mod it

Let's hope it was worth the wait

1. Very hard to mod (for obvious SP reasons), so this will most likely be a Suggestion or very, very fine adjustment mod
2. You stick to Distance snap 1.0x pretty strictly
3. All parts where are only coordinates or not any explanation why, are all for flow
4. 00:31:666 (7) - I'd put this to x:160 y:324 for cleaniness
5. 00:41:013 (1,2) - I'd put x:469 y:1 and 00:41:936 (4) - y:100
6. 00:45:628 (4) - x:332 y:36
7. 00:54:628 (5,6) - I'd NC one or other from these
8. 00:55:782 (1) - Middle anchor x:164 y:200 and first anchor x:200 y:264 after adjusting this you can go to timing point 00:56:128 and you see that next circles approaching circle follows sliders line perfectly
9. 01:09:859 (4) - x:92 y:308 and 01:10:090 (5) - x:40
10. 01:12:397 (1) - Last anchor to x:328 y:336 then move 01:12:859 (2) - to x:240 y:336
11. 01:36:397 (1) - better blanket if x:416 y:16
12. Pure suggestion 03:02:243 (5,6,7,8) - rotate these as whole first 45 degrees then 90 degrees anticlockwise and I think you get what I'm after here (Ofc there will be a lot of fine adjustment but it plays more nicely atleast for me)
13. 03:20:474 (4) - y:94 (being on same height as slider 7)
14. 03:25:320 (1,2,3) - Nicely added own sounds to song, I didn't even notice that these whistles were your made before I deleted those and played again

1. 00:06:397 (1,2,3) - Use same distance between these notes
2. 00:10:320 (3,5) - Overlap
3. 00:12:166 (3) - x:389 y:136 for flow
4. 00:14:013 (9) - No sound here, delete
5. 00:17:013 (8,9,10) - Make these blanket each other better
6. 00:18:397 (1,2,3,4,5) - Use same distance between notes
7. 00:18:859 (5) - NC
8. 00:20:243 (8,10) - stack 10 to sliderend
9. 00:20:705 (9) - NC
10. 00:24:397 (9) - ^
11. About all New Combos, you have way too long combos, it's not usual to <4 star map to have like 15 long combo, it's stream songs thing. Do something to every combo going over 10
12. 00:32:013 (10,11,12,14) - Overlap
