Jesus fucking christ, this turned into a shitshow. Alright. Take 2. Not touching the easy to insane diffs because those seem to be alright for now.okextra
aka the "this should be 6 stars how the fuck is this 5.42" difficulty
00:02:061 (2,3,4,5) - I get that you try to make the mapping style unique and all but these patterns just look ugly and make me sad, might be better off doing a linear style pattern just so there's less cluster and confusion or something (because I mean you did basically what I just suggested here 00:03:728 (2,3,4,5) - so uhh??)2 was actually missnapped somehow, moved back to its proper place, also, fuck linear, and there is a bass hit on the first pattern that lets it work fine, the second pattern is different because the music is different
00:04:249 (6) - NC this to maintain consistency with 00:10:915 (1) Done
00:05:395 (1) - remove NC, or NC 00:02:061 (2) - and any other intro patterns like this to maintain consistency Added a new combo by re-organizing the pattern so i could get a bass click in there
00:09:665 (7) - NC might be better here to showcase the jump Done
00:12:895 (1,2,3,4) - I really don't like how tight the jump is between 00:12:895 (1,2,3) - it makes the entire pattern play really badly. Maybe increase the spacing between 1 and 2? Changed so that the 4 notes go over the next 7 stream's structure. inb4 people whine its not a square
00:25:186 (1) - yo why is this a NC as well as 00:25:395 (1) - ?? Emphasis on the single instrument used there. it's an aesthetics thing.
00:26:020 (1) - ^ I'm seriously confused by this ^
00:27:895 (1,1,1,1) - honestly this would be a lot better playability-wise as a 1/6 stream or repeat slider like in Comfort, because while this follows the rhythm technically it just aaaa it doesn't feel right with the emphasis on the synth; also I don't really think NC spam is needed here The nc was for pretty aesthetics to emphasize the 1/8 roll but i mean the ranking criteria has had 5 years to pin down a rule of "in cases where a 1/6 or 1/8 stream would be too difficult, you can ignore the exact timing to use a 1/4 or 1/6 stream" and hasn't so i dont know exactly what to do here.
00:34:145 (1,1,2,1) - NC's here are a bit fucky imo, could be better by removing NC at 00:34:457 (1) - and placing it 00:34:561 (2) - and removing the NC on the slider after redid the ncs
00:35:533 (1,1,1,1,1) - still don't think NC spam works here i dont either but i mean i take suggestions too easily sometimes. ncs removed and will leave it removed.
00:38:311 (6) - NC for downbeat? Ok
00:39:770 (3) - this might be better as a single note, and then putting the spinner on the blue tick I like the bass = slider general rule. it doesn't ruin the spinner either.
00:44:353 (3,1) - jump is a bit overkill for this difficulty imo, put 1 closer to the sliderend of 3 like this or something
00:46:645 (1,1) - basically same thing here although I'm not really sure that's an easy fix with how you designed the rest of the things following it
00:48:311 (5) - NC for downbeat? Ok
00:55:915 (1) - maybe extend this slider to the blue tick? I think it flows better that way Ok
01:04:978 (1) - I don't really get why you put a spinner here instead of just using the same rhythm you've used for the past two things like thisOk
01:09:561 (1) - this is actually really good sliderart tbh Ok
01:24:040 (2,3,1) - this pattern would flow a lot better by removing 3 and just having 2 be a 1/8 repeat slider imo Ok
01:25:186 (1) - remove NC since there's a spinner directly after (is this against the ranking criteria idfk) Ok
01:29:978 (6) - NC for downbeat? Ok
01:32:686 (4) - NC since this is basically an entirely new pattern separate from the previous one Ok
01:39:874 (1) - remove NC for the spinner again Ok
01:42:061 (2,3,4,5) - same thing that I said for 00:02:061 (2,3,4,5) - applies here too STAAAACKING
01:45:394 (2,3,4,5) - ^STAAAACKING
01:50:082 (3) - NC this since it's a new pattern Ok
01:52:895 (1,2,3,4) - again, I think this jump could be a bit more spaced in terms of the spacing between 1 and 2 Ok
comfort
00:20:395 (1,2,3,4) - this pattern plays really awkwardly in comparison to everything else, adding a curve between 2 and 3 helps a bit
01:09:978 (1) - remove NC cuz the spinner again Ok
01:14:561 (3,5) - NC these two? you did it in the extra difficulty and I think it'd work well here for readability Ok
01:19:770 (7) - why does the kiai end here and then start again??? there's no difference in beats fountains br000000
01:21:020 (2,4,6) - NC these and remove NC on 01:20:915 (1) - for the same reason as 01:14:561 (3,5) Ok
01:21:645 (1,2,3) - previous pattern like this didn't have 1/8 after it, so why does this one have it?
01:39:874 (1) - remove NC cuz spinner I'm starting to question my thought process behind removing these tbh
01:42:061 (2,3,4,5) - holy spacing this is a calm part man clam down Ok
Don't really have much to say on the Comfort difficulty, I personally enjoy the patterns but there's at least some things in there.

00:11:228 (2,1) - putting this downwards http://puu.sh/n86KM/77af9d0dc1.jpg, coz its a flowbreak worthy part and has similar rhythm as 00:10:915 (1,2) -

00:15:707 (5,6) - these notes are nearly touching lol which are an not-ok in my book. to fix this i moved 00:15:499 (4,5) - to 373:367. also grants extra emphasis for 00:15:811 (6) - http://puu.sh/n875y/ddf0baceab.jpg

00:17:270 (2,1) - maybe fix the blanket on sliderend? http://puu.sh/n878Q/fddeb9667c.jpg
00:20:395 (1,2,3,4) - maybe have these follow the same DS you used for 00:19:353 (1,2) - coz the part isnt very emphasized. like the beats are soft. heck, 00:19:353 (1,2) - this part is more emphasized actually lol. have a really bad fix http://puu.sh/n87mu/2e0d4444c2.jpg
00:20:811 (1,2,3) - honestly i cant think of any reason as to why you made the part... like this lol there are no beats to represent those 5/8 sliders. i choose to attack this part coz this a major part (and not minor either lol like those sliderends being hitcircles and shortening sliders). using this rhythm wouldve done just fine http://puu.sh/n87Gy/8a6d140228.jpg. you can do your fancy curve sliders using some SV altering but pls change this part.

00:22:686 (1) - ctrl g this lol i dont see a reason as to why you used a flow break. flow is extremely important in double bpm maps (but im sure you knew that)

00:23:311 (3,4,1) - i was wondering what was wrong with this part lol. use the same DS. i dont see why its different (lower even), especially when it has more sounds in it
00:24:665 (2) - if i were to put a flow break in this part i wouldve done it in 00:24:561 (1) - instead of 00:24:665 (2) - lol but since you did neither, ill just go ahead and tell you to make this part super flowy http://puu.sh/n888j/0dbde249f9.jpg
00:26:020 (1) - ctrl g this for emphasis (well it players better when i was simulating it) 00:26:228 (1) - also gives this the extra kick :l

00:28:832 (4,5,6) - 5 is in the wrong spot lol. do this instead http://puu.sh/n892L/d476e3034b.jpg
00:31:645 (7) - ctrl g coz it makes the other parts more fun to play imo 00:31:853 (1) -
00:31:645 (7) - also NC ths i dont know why this is continue combo
00:31:853 (1,1) - same goes for here. why NC :l http://puu.sh/n88AX/4931ca3994.jpg
00:32:686 (1,2,3,4) - if anything i would have this stream go down lol because theres nothing in the song that suggests a upward stream (and the stream is nearly vertical so this would be appropriate with some really strong increasing pitch)
00:40:186 (1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3) - i dont understand why people hate this part too lol i mean it creats pretty good buildup :l
00:47:374 (3) - i dont think its a good idea to use a sliderend to emphasize a strong beat.
00:57:061 (2,3,4,5) - id prefer if you ctrl g'd (as in reverse the position of slider start coz i dont understand why you put the flowbreak here other than the finishes. if you wanna keep this, okay but this looks really painful to play.
00:59:978 (1,2) - lemao overlap
01:03:311 (1,2,3,4,5) - this part is fine tho. its cool.
01:33:103 (5) - ctrl g this lol why flowbreak
Or maybe they did look at it and don't think you did a good job at it? Your patterns look like a mess from a purely aesthetic standpoint, where things are unevenly spaced and notes overlapping with other notes, making one combo bleed into another one and just making everything look like a jumble of notes in general.Shiirn wrote:

(incase you dont wanna redo these sliders, using SV 1.5x would do just fine (might be disorienting but hey this map is confusing as it is already LOLOLOL) Not doing this. These three sliders heavily emphasize the wubs and encourage the player to hold the beat very hard, as well as alternate. This map tries very hard to be single-tap friendly while trying to encourage alternating in places like this, where I want to have buttons held down for longer than just short taps. At 25% you might feel like they're not entirely accurate but at any higher speed they fit very well! Also, they're 3/8 buddy :U
00:22:686 (1) - ctrl g this lol i dont see a reason as to why you used a flow break. flow is extremely important in double bpm maps (but im sure you knew that) Gameplay wise there is literally no difference and i wanted the swap in clockwise-counterclockwise to emphasize the wubs, but if people start throwing that scary 'flow' buzz word around i better line the fuck up right?

00:26:020 (1) - ctrl g this for emphasis (well it players better when i was simulating it) 00:26:228 (1) - also gives this the extra kick :l Nope. One of the stringent rules of this track is that 1/8 = very close, overlapping or almost overlapped spacing. Not going to break it exactly once.
00:27:061 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - i dont understand all the hate in this part lol Haters should just be glad I didn't actually map every individual beat in the music here.
00:28:832 (4,5,6) - 5 is in the wrong spot lol. do this instead http://puu.sh/n892L/d476e3034b.jpg I'll do it but i mean im sure some idiot is going to say 'muh flow' or 'muh spacing'. I think either way works fairly fine due to how the synth and bass work out.
00:31:645 (7) - ctrl g coz it makes the other parts more fun to play imo 00:31:853 (1) - Don't see the point. if it's reversed then we have 'anti-flow' because the cursor has to go even more distance. idk don't ask me to explain what flow is ur just a bad mapper blah blah etc.
00:31:645 (7) - also NC ths i dont know why this is continue combo
00:31:853 (1,1) - same goes for here. why NC :l http://puu.sh/n88AX/4931ca3994.jpg I have always new combod the 3/8 sliders that emphasize the intermittent interjections of interesting instruments.
00:32:686 (1,2,3,4) - if anything i would have this stream go down lol because theres nothing in the song that suggests a upward stream (and the stream is nearly vertical so this would be appropriate with some really strong increasing pitch) The direction really doesn't matter. It really, really doesn't unless it's clear you're using volume as a model for where you're aiming a section. These are four notes and they just happen to go upwards. It's not implying that the pitch or volume go up or down. Not every note or pattern needs to have a deep underlying meaning behind it.
00:40:186 (1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3) - i dont understand why people hate this part too lol i mean it creats pretty good buildup :l I've only ever seen people think it's either "pretty good" or "fucking amazing". I've only seen people whine about it once it got qualified. That's mapping for you.
00:47:374 (3) - i dont think its a good idea to use a sliderend to emphasize a strong beat. It's not emphasizing a strong beat. The strong beat just happens to be on the end because here I am mapping that high pitched unidentifiable instrument rather than purely the bass.

00:59:978 (1,2) - lemao overlap palrevo oamel
01:03:311 (1,2,3,4,5) - this part is fine tho. its cool. this is literally the exact same as the other one except rotated 180 degrees
01:33:103 (5) - ctrl g this lol why flowbreak This is changing direction so that the impulse to leap to the next start doesn't lead to the player 100ing the slider. It's for gameplay. Sliderballs don't need to constantly go in the same general direction. That's not how flow works...
Not that I ever said you had to do any of those things. It's possible to make tasteful overlaps. It's possible to transition between styles without making it feel jarring (not that I even see that much of a style change in your diff in general). Doesn't change the fact that I don't think the map looks good though. But hey, since I dislike the map my input is completely useless anyway I guess? Yeah, I'm not modding it, because from the way you reply to these things I don't think you'd like/want my input anyway nor do I think you would agree with most of them. In the end it would just be me saying a bunch of things, and you rejecting it.Shiirn wrote:

(I dont care if you try to defend your map, just dont act like it's perfect)
Most pro player input I have gotten is that it plays very well for the most part and any parts that feel directly unfair as opposed to challenging are being found and weeded out.
The raw aesthetic rule of " you need to make sure no notes overlap and the map has the exact same style the entire map" is not going to happen here. If you want it to happen here, you're looking for the wrong map. Having a stringent rule of "sliders need to point directly at the next note or it is ugly" is just as silly. If you want to say "its all just a god damn mess" then have fun. I won't accept "change it because it looks bad" as a mod.
Most of the input I've gotten since the disqualification has been "shit from the thread, value from in-game". The people that are speaking their mind in this thread without giving specific advice (or are telling me I mapped a section wrong because they'd do it differently and refuse to see any sort of alternative) are completely useless. The people who chat with me in-game and discuss actual pattern shape and flow are far more valuable. As such, I'm going to give them the attention they deserve.
I'm going to go over Comfort with a very fine toothed comb over the next day while seeking (and going over already posted) input from people whom I know aren't just making shit up because they vaguely find the map disagreeable. After that, I'm going to work back towards qualification. If it gets DQ'd again, so be it. I will not be fillibustered out of ranking something I know is not just rankable, but pretty good. And Comfort is pretty good. It's nowhere near perfect, but perfect is unobtainable as there will always be people who think it should be different.
I've replied to every actual mod with thought-out responses and a lot of acceptance. I don't understand where you get the idea that I deny all feedback. I just don't accept feedback that doesn't have actual suggestions. It's easy to say "this is ugly". It takes actual work to say "this is ugly to me because...".CXu wrote:

General
- when i say the "slider points back towards where it came from" i think it's more of the problem that the slider body is in the way of the sliderhead, which makes it a bit harder to read and aim it (players might hit the sliderbody instead of the actual target)
Comfort
- 00:05:603 (3,4) - looks a bit cramped, perhaps move (4) to 404|281 for a parallelogram and ds fix? Moved and re-positioned the pattern slightly to accurately stack.
- 00:09:561 (1,2) - and 00:10:082 (1,2) - i think these two look kinda out of place, the low ds between them isn't consistent with the rest of the first 12 seconds Blanketted the first (1) and spaced out the second.
- 00:27:582 (6,1,2,1) - this ds is a bit wonky to me, it plays like a stream but it's kinda like a weird square thing, maybe something like this or something? Reworked. This was driving me crazy, this is the best suggestion I've gotten on it ever. thanks.
- 00:32:686 (5) - i think remove nc here and add nc here 00:32:895 (4) - would make it a bit easier to read Done
- 00:33:311 (4,1) - these nc's on the blue ticks are all a bit hard to read, but i'm not sure if you can really do anything else here :v i know right
- 00:52:270 (3,4,5) - this ds increase is really awkward to play reworked it a bit
- 00:52:686 (1,2,3) - the movement for this is doable, but it feels a bit unnatural Reworked a bit, hope it's more readable, the beats here are prime to be rather jerky but i dont want it outright confusing
- 01:05:395 (4,5,6,7,8,9,1) - this also feels quite unnatural/messy to play, it's also hard to hit, i think i get it 1 in 10 tries
- 01:08:520 (2,3) - whoa this is weird to play. additionally, 01:08:832 (4) - this is 1/3 as well, i think this rhythm would be a bit better done
- 01:14:040 (5,6,1,2) - this ds change is kinda weird, but i guess it's okay, it's hittable most of the time I actually fixed this just now after your playtest. Glad we both saw it!
- 01:17:478 (1,2) - not a big fan of this right -> left movement and the slider points towards where it just came from, perhaps something that'll keep the player moving like this? Rotated and turned
- 01:18:520 (1,2,3) - i don't hear a sound on 3, only the pitch raise from (1,2) I clearly hear three sounds even at 100%, although they kind of blend a bit together, it'd be far worse to just have a 1/8 double sitting around where the rest of the map never does that
- 01:20:603 (4,5) - kinda same idea with the slider pointing back towards where it came from, huge loss of momentum
- 01:27:061 (3,4) - ^
- 01:28:103 (3,4) - ^ Not entirely sure what to do with these as there aren't many other ways i can map them without putting them at a completely different location.
- 01:29:874 (4,1) - two things, one is ^, the other is that the following pattern is difficult to read-there's a pause and that stack with the round slider, iunno, not a big fan of that pause there This thing is ridiculously hard to map. I'm going to try to fix it, hold my beer.
- 01:30:915 (5,6,7) - i think (6) should be moved to 341|243 and ctrl j'd to keep momentum in this slider pattern done
- 01:32:374 (7,1) - slider points towards where it came from
- 01:34:353 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,5,6) - this is all very weird, 01:34:874 (4) - and 01:35:395 (4,5) - are probably the hardest to hit out of these Reworked it a little bit.

08:29 Shiirn: pishifat has given me carte blanche for changing his diff in any way
08:29 Shiirn: and ongaku is literally my student and we talk every day anyway
08:29 Shiirn: so that's all bases covered
08:29 Bakari: I didn't really mention renaming it to Beginner/Simple when we were discussing that

08:31 Bakari: 00:26:228 (4) - gets a little overlapped with the score-meter
08:32 Shiirn: http://puu.sh/olaLc/c07d6bd8f9.png
08:32 Bakari: cool
08:32 Shiirn: moved 4 up into a triangle with the previous notes
08:34 Bakari: let's see collab hard now
08:34 Shiirn: which is collab between me and ongaku
08:34 Shiirn: he mapped evens i mapped o- *shot*
08:34 Shiirn: nah i mapped the first half he did the second
08:36 Bakari: 00:18:311 - i feel like something is missing here. how about a circle?
08:36 Bakari: nevermind, I get the pattern now
08:36 Shiirn: sure
08:36 Shiirn: i mean
08:37 Shiirn: i mostly skip the bass
08:37 Shiirn: so im like "uhh if you say so it wouldnt ruin it but"
08:37 Bakari: It works your way
08:37 Bakari: So, let's keep it
08:37 Shiirn: ok
08:37 Bakari: Way better than trying to redo stuff and follow what I'd follow
08:38 Bakari: 00:27:061 (1,2,3,4) - probably a slider instead of a triplet
08:38 Bakari: I am worried about the spread, which is pretty edgy
08:38 Shiirn: let's face it
08:38 Shiirn: this song is not very spread-friendly
08:39 Shiirn: you're forced into multiple damned-if-you-do-damned-if-you-don't choices about which rhythms and instruments you follow
08:39 Bakari: 00:38:728 (4,5,6,7) - same here, sooo
08:39 Shiirn: that one has the chime sound i want to keep
08:39 Shiirn: the first i'll change cuz the noises aren't really there
08:40 Bakari: provided that stuff is confusing enough due to the rhythm alone, I wouldn't introduce such sliderstacks
08:41 Shiirn: what sliderstacks
08:41 Bakari: (4,5) being started at the same point
08:42 Shiirn: are we\
08:42 Shiirn: looking at hard
08:42 Shiirn: or normal
08:42 Bakari: hard
08:42 Shiirn: 00:38:728 (4,5,6,7) - these are all circles
08:42 Bakari: that's why I wanted a slider here :v
08:43 Shiirn: there's the chime that quite fits the mini stream though
08:43 Shiirn: the first one 00:27:061 (1,2) - i replaced with white tick -> blue to blue 1/2 slider
08:43 Shiirn: and it fits
08:43 Bakari: 00:56:645 (1,2) - 1/2 cool / 00:57:999 (5,1) - 1/4 not so cool, as it can be misread as 1/2
08:44 Shiirn: so space the first or second one you think
08:45 Bakari: the second one
08:45 Shiirn: kk
08:45 Shiirn: done
08:45 Bakari: there're more 1/2 stacks like this, and they are damn good
08:45 Shiirn: this is ongaku from now on so i'll just prod him with a log
08:45 Bakari: this is, the rest is alright
08:45 Shiirn: ongaku's already figured out a decent style for himself with stacking that i'd never be able to do
08:45 Shiirn: lol
08:45 Shiirn: it just needs some consistency work
08:45 Bakari: I'd try to tone down 1/4s a bit, though
08:46 Bakari: otherwise it might be a bit too much even for a Hyper
08:46 Shiirn: it's 144bpm and it's basically introducing alternation
08:46 Bakari: okay, now Insane
08:46 *Bakari is editing [https://osu.ppy.sh/b/908183 Camellia - Routing [Ongaku's Insane]]
08:46 Bakari: waitwaitwait
08:46 Shiirn: hi
08:46 Bakari: I forgot one thing, are you sure about tick rate 4 on hard?
08:47 Shiirn: yes
08:47 Bakari: alright then, now back to the Insane
08:47 Shiirn: the patterns basically require following the slider tracks
08:47 Shiirn: no ticks = players try to cheese it and ruin the rhythm for themselves
08:48 Bakari: 00:08:311 (1) - try to replace it with a single slider just like Extra does, seems to work better
08:49 Shiirn: k
08:50 Bakari: even though the slider makes it readable, I'd 00:39:770 (3) - still add a new combo here to stress the velocity change
08:50 Shiirn: actually i think nc would be quite important
08:50 Shiirn: the first and last ticks of that slider don't render during play so it looks like a 1/2 not a 1/1
08:54 Bakari: 01:40:186 (2,3,4,5,6,1,2,3,4,5) - can you listen to the stream here? I have a feeling it is somewhat off
08:55 Shiirn: yeah uhhh
08:55 Shiirn: don't bother trying to time the quavering voice
08:56 Shiirn: it's 1/12, 1/8 and 1/6 mix
08:57 Bakari: then I guess we'll just try a spinner
08:58 *Bakari is editing [https://osu.ppy.sh/b/877843 Camellia - Routing [Extra]]
08:58 Bakari: Now Extra
08:59 Shiirn: \o
08:59 Bakari: 00:17:478 - I'd rather have something starting here. The breat is pretty strong and a passive reverse-arrow doesn't emphasise it enough
09:00 Bakari: 00:27:999 (1,1,1) - is there really a need to use so many new combos?
09:00 Shiirn: agree. Bear in mind, Extra was mapped with Comfort being there, and thereby is intentionally "much weaker" than it
09:00 Shiirn: i'll have places where i can buff it wantonly
09:02 Shiirn: the new combo spam there is for the change in spacing and for thematic reasons
09:02 Shiirn: not really much else
09:05 Bakari: `00:55:395 - again, some clickable stuff wouldn't hurt
09:05 Shiirn: since the song is winding down i think it's fine
09:06 Shiirn: it's reaching near the end of the section there
09:06 Shiirn: before the 4 windup portions and then the kiai
09:06 Shiirn: god i know this song like the back of my hand
09:08 Bakari: tha's pretty much it

sorry for wasting your time. I appreciate the feedback, but I know we disagree fundamentally on the whole "everything must be neat und tidy" consistency issues. I've completely fucked the pooch as far as this map goes and I'd just scrap it and move on if it wasn't for Ongaku's excellent insane. It was plenty internally consistent before the DQ brigade popped in and I had to basically field two dozen conflicting opinions and interpretations and suggestions for Comfort, which trickled down into Extra due to it basically being a nerfed Comfort. And now the map is shit and I would totally remap it if not for the fact that people will fucking hate what I do with it as a matter of course at this point.Okorin wrote:
[Extra]
I'd like to see AR reduced slightly, after testing around the most comfortable thing i personally found is AR 9.3 or 9.4, 9.5 left too few objects on the screen for me to comprehend patterns correctly and i don't think it's necessary as i got much better scores with less ar on it I'm not really one to care specifically about 0.1 AR or so, but to begin with Extra was originally meant to be 'harder' to help bridge the gap between Insane and Comfort, and upon removing Comfort, I've lowered the artificial difficulty patterns and settings and may have missed one or two spots, such as the AR or OD. Lowered AR to 9.3 and OD to 8.5.
i mean isnt this thing based around blankets because then half of them are lol and could be easily adjusted slightly but whatever I'm sorry for being abjectly and utterly shit at making blankets. I'm trying to improve at getting used to these magic three points. I haven't had years to fuck around with them like you kids. Everyone can say "Oh he's just fucking lazy" all they want to whoever they want but I genuinely do have trouble getting these things perfect and I'm trying to work on that.
00:02:895 (1,2) - 00:06:228 (1,2) - 00:09:353 (6,1,2) - when you do stuff this differently like this i just feel like you took reasoning and threw it out the window k, i'll just copy+paste the click patterns for all 3. The only one that is distinctly different is the last one and can be considered an error. I distinctly remember flipping #1 because someone bitched about the back-and-forth patterning so fuck them, it's going back to reversal. these are now consistent,
00:16:436 (2) - is nowhere near as stressed as 00:16:540 - but gets equal spacing to fuck my brain The stressing starts at 1. The spacing is 1-3 with a note in the center.
00:18:103 (5) - judging by how you mapped 00:17:478 (3,4) - the end of 5 should be clickable and not something like a sliderend Comfort had this as a triple, so here I made it a slider because it's easier to play. Extra is already obscenely hard to play because it's basically a 288bpm map that's trying to be single tappable. I gave up consistency for a less dense map, because Comfort was the one that pulled out all the bells and whistles. This is fine. Screw perfect consistency, I'm not making a google translate robot map.
00:21:540 (3) - not sure but i think this would capture the sound better as an 1/4 slider I disagree. As a sharp bass hit at the end of the beat pattern, a circle is more accurate than a 1/4 slider as the players should simply be brief tapping the last bass hit, not holding down for it. And with 144bpm, the difference between tapping a 1/2 and holding down a 1/4 is very different, especially for more experienced singletappers. (Alternators wouldn't even notice)
00:21:749 (1,2,3,4,5) - seem to change around between mapping 2 different layers so i don't know what you're following anymore ? it IS following two layers, namely ones that swap in and out. 00:22:061 (2,3) - is the piano/carnival whine that only plays for those two notes, 00:22:478 (4) - is a connector with the bass, 00:22:686 (5) - is the wub, which unfortunately ends on OMG A STRONG BEAT who cares, 00:22:999 (6,7) - returns to the piano/bassline.
00:31:332 (3) - based on how you mapped 00:30:811 (1,2) - the end ot this should be clickable :// I disagree. If you want to be perfectly consistent and map nothing but a single layer, you're going to end up with a map that doesn't capture the music, especially since this is "only" 144bpm. The biggest issue I personally see with Camellia maps is that mappers get fucking lazy and map just the easiest 1/2 1/4 patterning when shit gets wubby and wobbly. That's boring to me, I don't care how it plays or what people think about consistency. There are a thousand boring ass weeb shit maps people can play if they want to play uniform and consistent beat patterns. Camellia does not bring those to the table and that's why most camellia maps suck, because while they're perfectly playable and functional they barely scratch the surface of the music.
00:37:999 (4) - there's nothing really dominant to be focused on this sliderhead, actually the sound you might want to emphasise in some way is 00:37:895 - as an 1/2 or something but i don't get why this gets a jump yeah, 00:37:895 - should be clickable. It was part of my "lowering density of comfort" setup and it made a lot more sense when Comfort existed.
00:27:895 - isnt this 1/6 or am i dumb You're not dumb but 1/6 streams are horribly out of place in this track and break far past the border of spontaneity.
00:46:853 (1,2,3,4,1) - while i personally don't struggle much with this in particular i can see how people ould hate you for that People will hate me even if I design a map that was literally able to suck their dicks. I like it how it is, 1/6 quads are functional in this map. Single tappers actually get a use for their other finger and alternators need to speed up a bit.
01:14:353 (1,2,1,2,1,2) - have way more energy than "semi-stack"-streamjumps, i'd consider more spacing here because right now this feels rather like a setback instead an intense part which is quite boring for me These particular streams are a big problem for me. They're the biggest single avenue of fucking with the star rating for this map. If I make these jumps, I can easily spike the SR to 5.6 or 5.7 but that's just stupid as hell. I really don't know what to do with these and to be honest at this point I really don't care. I tried reversing the pairs so even if the actual movements aren't as heavy, there's still the illusion of jumpiness. I did the same for the second chorus.
01:17:999 (4) - fuck you i expected this to go the other way around (so 4 and 5 being reversed in terms of direction) I think it's fine right now, as the movement provided is fairly smooth.
01:18:936 (3,4) - why do you mess around with emphasis on slidertails this much if you don't do it anywhere before in kiai I actually had this arleady changed into two triples on the advice of another BN who was checking it but didn't get around to doing the other difficulties.
01:29:978 - sounds more like 01:29:978 - 01:30:030 - 01:30:117 - 01:30:256 - so it's an 1/8 and an 1/3 ? don't even bother trying to make the quavering voice perfect. It's practically impossible and the gameplay will not change in the slightest as long as the player is simply holding down their button.
01:38:415 (4,1) - do yo ueven care about blankets in this at all i don't even fucking see them, fixed i think it's probably uglier because i'm fucking bad.
01:49:562 (1,2) - 01:50:082 (1,2) - nah i dk why you feel the need to stack these on ends just to mindfuck ppl in the end or something ? ? ? it was fine at the start but no fuck it at the ending?
[]
No idea i think this could be structured waaaaaaaaay better and besides if the diff is based on blankets you could have at least put some effort into them :/
I don't think my opinion whether i like this or not is going to change unless you do huge changes to the diff, because as it seems to me now the song makes way more sense within itself than your map within itself and that's not something i can fix for you or that mods can fix for you.
either want to reflect this in your map or you dont and if you don't, don't ask me to icon this because you can't find someone else because everyone is like meh

01:16:645 (1) - Ctrl+G is more friendly. Flow's better coming out of the previous two silders. I mean I guess sure but it'll purely be visual as any compotent player will simply wait-hold in the center of the slider after.
01:26:853 (2) - Not really getting this slider. I think it's better to shorten to 1/4 and add another circle on 01:27:061 - . Using a sliderend for that beat feels wrong for me haha. It doesn't give proper emphasis imo. ok
