In these special cases, contact a BAT to move your beatmap to pending. This will be how it will work from now on. Besides - approved maps are generally very very special cases and aren't decided by the mapper, but by the BAT team as a whole.

Well it only broke because of inherit + bpm multipliers :<.

Would it be possible to remove the circle-size-difficulty-setting-slider-bar-thingy and replace it with a text box allowing you to change the radius of circles in centimetres? I agree with your decision to remove the useless oversized/undersized selections, but the middle ground has quite largish jumps in circle sizes.

No I have no plans on making the settings more precise. Personally I don't see the point.

Some people (Am I the only one?) would want to have the freedom to adjust precision more carefully. Regardless, it isn't a particularly important change that could be made, anyway. I would like it if overall difficulty was broken down into three subcategories. Wait, that is an important and viable change!

(+) New tapping algorithm.
(*) Fixed test mode not starting from requested time when lead-in time is present.

I know here's a few pending bugs I said I'd fix tongiht, but I spent too much time on the new timing algorithm. Please give it a try by resetting and tapping along to any map. Here are a few of the (awesome) specifics:

  1. You must click 16 times for timing to be calculated. This provides a minimum level of accuracy.
  2. If you click more than 32 times, the precision of the BPM wil be extended to 1 decimal place.
  3. If you click more than 64 times, the precision of the BPM wil be extended to 2 decimal places.
  4. The more you click, the more accurate the timing will be. If you click through the whole song (and it is constant BPM) you can almost be guaranteed to have perfect timing.
  5. If you stop tapping to listen to the metronome and realise it isnt quite perfect, simply start tapping again in time to the beat and the song will rewind to the last point you stopped tapping. Tapping will always been in sequence from the first tap moving forwards and you may not seek and tap at a later point (without resetting first). This is one of the criteria in order for this algorithm to be accurate.
I managed to time 7/7 whole-BPM songs with under 20 clicks. I also tried 3 2d.p. BPMs and had them within 0.01bpm by 50% through the song. I find this pretty impressive :).
Feedback very welcome.

Holy crap, that sounds awesome. Not a substitute for others' consensus, but still.

Cool.
But i was thinking: what about leaving the logo of the play mode (osu, friut, taiko) that follows BPM?

I mentioned that to peppy, and he said he tried it and it was ugly

I had my doubts on this when it was first suggested, but I feel the change actually works. I'm not sure if this small lag is caused by the bg-image loading or not, but it's so small that I can live with it. :)

(Also, this is far superior to the banner system which dance games use, no need for a second image file)
