Celldweller? Sweet. Starred because I want more people to make celldweller stuff.

Decide on how long you want the map. I recommend cutting the song at 02:37:138 - and add a bit of fade to the end. Don't forget to re-encode from a high quality version. I think 160 kbps is the best compromise between quality and size. If you want me to do this for you, pm me.
I'm a bit disappointed you didn't map the
klayton edit; I'm pretty sure that one's free and it's a heck of a lot faster.
your kiai time is off. Kiai usually highlights the chorus, which is right AFTER where you have your current kiai. Save it for the last chorus of your edit of the song. Insane has it almost right, except it needs to start on beat 1 (long white tick).

you need one. Can I make it?

total play length: 56s is too short. Start from the beginning, like insane does and map the whole thing (up to 2:30)
00:26:959 (4) - Curve your sliders some. 0.8x spacing means you have to curve the sliders to make them the same "spacing" as the regular notes, and they look better.
00:30:174 (1) - don't put sliders under other sliders. Overlapping sliders is ugly.
00:34:995 (1,2,3,4,5,1,2,3,4) - boring. Follow the lyrics or the background.
00:41:424 (2) - bad slider
In general all the notes are on the beat, but there's a lot of offbeat stuff in the song you're not bringing out.

this name is ambiguous
map would be better with a higher slider speed and careful attention to your sliders. More Hitsounds are a must as well. I'm sorry you won't increase the slider speed, since maps are a lot easier to read if they are more spread out.

I'm tired of telling you what to delete. Hopefully you get how to map to the song and not your own rhythm you made up.
Making a beatmap isn't easy, and there's a lot of things you have to do in order to make a good one. Please listen to the song on 25% to double check if there is a note in the song where you have a questionable beat. Make your sliders symmetrical and curved. Listen for the drums in the background for queues on what hitsound to use. You'll get better at mapping as you play more good maps. This isn't even close to being ready for rank. Put it back in WIP until you have mapped the whole thing and cut the song properly.
