Can I press the importance that we are literally just out the gates with this project and the biggest reason we can't support an extended community at the moment is the lack of systems in place to manage it. As of now, our Dear Leader, who is a perfect incarnation of the appearance that a leader should have, is responsible for the management of around 1 (soon to be nearly double that amount) or so mappers and making sure they're on track.

More interest in mapping for commissions is the goal, and there's no way that having more people on board isn't good for the ecosystem.

So you're looking for extremely elite mappers, but these elite mappers are still only part-time?

Monstrata My Leader wrote:

And out of this selective group of people, you don't even have permission to map your own set for it unless you're really active in the group?
to use some examples (no offense to them), one mapper last round hadn't finished a guest difficulty he signed up for by the deadline. after a week or so he hadn't made progress, so the difficulty was turned into a collab. if a new member signs up and can't uphold their guest difficulty responsibilities, it's not a huge problem because they can be easily finished by other means.

the same isn't true about hosting a mapset though. one unnamed member last round (okorin) was assigned a mapset and by the deadline for mapset completion, he hadn't completed any difficulties on his set. 2 weeks after the deadline when maps were being prepared for rank, he still wasn't done, and filling the set with guest difficulties could only go so far.

so basically if someone can show commitment to their tasks in their entry round, they'll move up to full-time. if they can't, they'll stay at part-time where not following through with responsibilities doesn't have the same impact

for those interested in numbers, there's been 30 applicants so far!!

this is a horrible idea that heavily encourages sucking eachother's [censored]s rather than making good or interesting maps, and the way you have points set up even further hammers in the fact that nobody gives a [censored] about lower difficulties and apparently neither should any "respectable mappers" - why even bother pretending at this point?

i'd write some more but that'd involve putting more thought into this post than went into the original mafia idea and i don't like spending more time thinking than the thing i'm trying to discredit. tho this does seem like a bunch of self-congratulatory bull[censored].


EDIT: SEEING THAT MONSTRATA'S None yet :(. IS PART OF THAT PACK REALLY MAKES SENSE NOW, NO WAY WOULD THAT BE RANKED NORMALLY LOL

Could we get some clarity on the commissions system?

Is it possible to give enough commission for a badge simply from contributing directly to your paypal account? Or is meming also a requirement? Also, if meming is a requirement, does it also require you to be a weeb, or can you also get the badge just from participating in circlejerks?

And of course, what is the differentiating factor for each badge, seeing as there are three copy-pasted?

Also, can whoever designed the logo remove the white M?

I keep thinking I have a cracked Dorito on my screen :(.

not really sure about that ranked maps requirement. usually by the 125th map, people have a grasp of the process.

Monstrata isn't so great? Are you kidding me? When was the last time you saw a mapper with such 60° ability and Naruto openings with pp? Monstrata puts his maps on another level, and we will be blessed if we ever see a mapper with his skill and passion for Bioshock Infinite again. Hollow Wings breaks SV. ProfessionalBox breaks the editor. Monstrata breaks the pp system. You can keep your Sotarks maps. I prefer CBCC.

I don't get it. So is the implication here that, if you make a good enough shitpost, then you get pinned?

That kind of rule would be fair. But I don't think that's the case. After all, monstrata is a big name in the community. I feel there is some backdoor bribery going on here.

Consider: All the shitposts made by everyone else on this forum haven't been pinned ever. How can the work of one man outdo so many so quickly, so fiercly, and so... handsomely? Such a powerful shitpost, admittedly, but unfair that it is pinned because of...

Because of monstrata. Not the person, the name. This is the case of the upperclass having all the privileges over the middle and lower classes, we get abused at the mercy and pleasure of people like monstrata. In this case, monstrata is the face of the enemy. He is the person that represents all that we have been fighting against, our eternal nemesis - the aristocracy.

Down with the corrupt mods! Off with their heads! Burn the forums! Let us build from the ground up, a new Off-topic that will be free of moderation! Unshackle the chains, break their barbed whips upon your renewed body and seize the day! In the new forum, everyone will be equal, there will be no aristocracy to exploit you, no lower class to be taken advantage of.

This thing discouraged people to create their own maps. If you really like a song but it hasn’t been mapped in osu yet, then map it yourself. Then work on introducing and popularizing that type of music YOURSELF. It would be a little boring to see only monstrata (and other well known mappers).
Another concern is how many people are willing to pay money to have someone map a song they like? Maybe it’s a lot of people, but I certainly wouldn’t.

This also discourages new players from venturing into the mapping world themselves, I think a big reason a lot of players try mapping is because they want to make an impact, they want to introduce new songs and styles of mapping to the community.



Again, I’m not sure if this applies for everyone, but i would not like mapping a song genre I’m unfamiliar with. Monstrata for example, I’m sure he’s capable of mapping tons of different genres, but he primarially maps his little anime songs or whatever. If someone payed him to map a genre or song that’s uncomfortable or that he didn’t like, the map probably won’t be however the person paying for it visioned it. Which ultimately means whoever payed just wasted some money. Maybe a little more selection than just handing over a song? Like, “do you want this map to be gimmicky, if yes how so? Do you want this to be mapped in my own style? Do you want this map to have challenging rhythms?” Which means whoever is being payed must have a large amount of skill and can adapt to whatever the commissioner wants.


Of course, this is just speculation. Maybe the mappers who applied are ok with mapping songs out of their comfort zone. Maybe there are people who’d actually pay. But my biggest concern is that it will discourage new mappers.

It’s like doing commisionary art, you can set rules, but that might lower the chances of business. You could say “art commissions - only fan art of attack on titan” or say “art commissions - anything’s fine!” The second one would increase your chances of selling, but you might have to work uncomfortably.

All in all, I hope whoever does make it on the team can bring a wide variety of mapping styles to the table.
