Hi Blocko!

Evening gave me a BN check, but there is one issue he and I are both not sure about. He asked me to ask you to check out this one issue and provide some feedback on it before he bubbles, since as far as we both know you're probably the most qualified for this task. Here's a link to his check: >click< and specifically the issue we are looking at is the one which he brought up at 05:06:679 (306679|1,306679|2,306679|0,306968|0,306968|2,306968|1,307064|2,307064|0,307064|1,307352|1,307352|2,307352|0,307641|0,307641|2,307641|1,307737|1,307737|0,307737|2) - .

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Hi Level 51!

Well, those chords are rather faint but they're still pretty audible to me. If you wanna keep things consistent, you can keep that current pattern.

Though, if you wanna be more correct with those piano chords in the end, see this:
05:01:775 - http://puu.sh/pnTro/981c933e66.png
05:04:852 - http://puu.sh/pnTtn/724c37ab18.png
There's a piano chord that's in between those two big chords from what I'm hearing.

05:07:544 - http://puu.sh/pnTCE/b0b40cb0fa.png
This one is to accentuate the louder chords there.

Hope this helps your map overall! Good luck.

Timing

I see the timing corrections you and Evening did, but I hate to see a map approximating the rhythm with 1/12 adjustments and odd offset changes. I went through and timed the weird part more rigorously for you. Here's my version of the timing points + resnapped notes: http://puu.sh/pSHMJ.osu (right click > save link as)

You can choose to stay with the old timing if you'd like. My version may have the advantage of being slightly more on-sync (I hope) and having more sensible snaps, but it also clutters up the playfield with measure lines. I'm pretty sure the old version is synced well enough to be rankable, so if you don't like the measure lines that's cool Added the new timings, thank you so much! I'm not good with timings which is why I couldn't do it myself also measure lines are cool

04:38:025 - can I ask you to reconsider this kiai start? Unlike 00:18:224 - , 01:57:452 - , 02:09:760 - , etc, I don't hear a significant buildup to the second beat of the measure. The kiai start might fit better at 04:36:006 - which sounds like the culmination of the buildup or 04:37:641 - at the start of the measure Agreed! Changed the start of the kiai to 04:36:006 -

Metadata

I suggest you add the album name AD:PIANO 2 (source: http://diverse.jp/dvsp-0107/ ) and marathon cus why not, maybe people will be searching for marathons Added both!

Can you explain what the tag world fragments means? I need to know before I bubble World Fragments is what I assumed the name of the album or something was. Of course I'm just inferring this off contextual clues, so I could be very wrong about this. Source: http://diverse.jp/dvsp-0145/

Nucleic

hahaha because DNA is in the nucleus hehehehe ok Technically DNA is a subset of the wider range of nucleic acids. Of course I'm always up for changing it to the Gradual Intensification of an Incomprehensibly Complex Deoxyribonucleic Structure.

00:26:750 - did you mean to put the two-note chord here for the drum? the only sound at 00:26:782 - is a hi hat i think fixed
00:42:070 - no 1/6? (you mapped the corresponding 1/6 at 00:54:378 - ) uh, the 1/6 here is significantly softer, which is why I missed it out to begin with. Nonetheless I've added it
01:32:455 (92455|6,92519|5,92583|4,92647|0,92711|1,92775|2) - I only hear 1/4 here oops. fixed!
02:07:741 - chord pls chorded
03:31:183 - shouldn't this all be 1/6 correct! not sure what I was hearing the first time
03:44:516 (224516|0,224804|0) - I think these both go on the 1/12 before it oh ok cool. wasn't sure about that myself.
04:59:083 - I don't hear a piano here oh ok. changed to [4][5][3]

I just had the best idea. Pattern suggestion: http://puu.sh/pSNl6.osu
note that I added notes at 02:53:894 - and 02:54:535 - to preserve the pattern. I think there are quiet piano sounds there, but you can get rid of them if you want
don't feel pressured to change it but please, it would be LEGENDARY added. something something legendary

My two cents:

I think the other modders were on to something when they said the patterning was *too* consistent. Just look at the 1-2-3 and 5-6-7-esque patterns everywhere. However, what they failed to point out is that it makes the map feel more cohesive and distinct. It gives it more personality. You can even consider 1-2-3 to be a sort of motif

(Of course, if all your maps end up looking like that then it can get tiresome) <-- oh no

This song is great for mapping and you really did justice to the nuances of rhythm, pitch, and structure. The streams are fun too. I'll be glad to bubble this set once you respond to my suggestions. Note that if you implement any of the larger changes then we'll need Evening to re-bubble as well. Cheers thanks! I implemented like everything so I assume that means I need Evening to rebub this ;_;

I think you forgot to add the tags, if you wouldn't mind doing that. small change so we don't need a re-bubble from Evening

You noticed what the pattern I suggested resembles, right?

[7:24 PM] Evening: 03:50:974 (230974|5,230974|0) -  pretty sure this is 1/8

The map honestly plays amazingly but I have a problem with hitsounding. The sampling has been done well, but the hitsounds are pretty much inaudible apart from some places where you have 4 of them at the same time and the calm part. You absolutely need to up the hitsound volume by like 10-20% overall and while you're at it, make sure to increase the volume of all timing sections to at least 20% so you can hear hitsounds if you disable the custom samples.

Call me back when you've made the hitsounds clearly hearable and we can get it going to qualified

I actually thought the background melody was probably 1/6, but these are kind of just here to quicken the pace of this section. Kinda dumpy I suppose. If you think it shouldn't be 1/6 I can change it to a 1/4 though

-Kamikaze- wrote:

Yeah, you should change it, dumpy is kinda bad ranking wise still 1/4'd it

As for hitsounds, they are fine overall now, but some chords sound unnaturally loud (imballanced with rest of the chart) like for example stacked crashes on 00:23:993 - or 01:07:263 - . Go through the chart on autoplay and lower volume of some of them to make it more ballanced

00:58:224 - Same situation as 1:10 if you're referring to hitsounds I lowered this volume
03:03:318 - Kinda weird that there's that little break here, single 1/4 notes for background piano would flow better into the doublestair up ahead added!
03:31:204 (211204|6,211270|4,211337|2,211404|0,211404|5,211470|3,211537|1) - Man this sounds more like a reverse stair '_<>' changed to Blocko's 1357531 pattern
03:56:294 (236294|4,236294|5) - Would move that to [67] just to avoid the anchor on 5th (03:55:846 (235846|4,236038|4,236166|4,236294|4) - ) done
04:44:179 - Lack of crashes/finishes for some reason?
04:50:333 - Here too fixed these

05:02:448 (302448|1,302448|5,302448|4,302448|0,302544|3,302641|5,302641|1,302641|2,302641|6) - Small bracket would be fitting here too
did a [1267][35][1267]
This should be all
