Hi guys~ Today I want to find out how you all came to know Osu! (and maybe how it changed you >w<) Ne~ Everyone has a story, so let me hear it!

I guess me first...
I came upon Osu! when I was trying to find Hayate no Gotoku's Movie, "Heaven is a Place on Earth". Instead, I found a videosu of the song! I thought it looked like a really cool game (considering that it included J-Pop) I found osu.ppy.sh and started playing! ^^ Because of Osu! I have come to know a lot more J-Pop artists like KOTOKO, fripside and LiSA. Osu! made my try watching Sword art online, fan vocaloids and learn how to use GIMP (don't ask). I remember my first 2 songs were Heaven is a Place on Earth and Silky Hearts. So that's how I came to know Osu! Let me hear your story~ <3

There was a thread on another website. I came here because I remember someone mentioning how cool it was that the little sparkly trail thing from the cursor bounced off the edge of the game window.

So long as people are posting at a steady pace and staying on topic nobody ever seems to care if it's a duplicate topic. I've made a few that got copied and still get bumped occasionally while mine collects dust. C'est la vie.

I was addicted to Elite Beat Agents when I was in third grade (lol), even dressed up as an agent for halloween (double lol), so after playing EBA for the 2153th time (Triple LOL), I got on to youtube and was looking at videos of EBA (Quad LOL), and I found osu!. I eventually made an acct., I think it was flowerman or something (Multi lol, what a gay user name), and I downloaded osu!. I eventually got banned for being immature (SUPER MEGA NEO COMBO LOL), and years later, I found osu! on my friends PC. Total nostalgia, I had to play. I found out that I was better at it then he was (his whole family, In fact,) and I let it go. The next time I went over, I could only beat them on one map.(Cave Story map, Escape Route OC Remix) They owned me on the rest of the maps. I was furious. So, a couple of monthes ago, I got a new acct., started over. And here I am. :D

A friend introduced the game to me, then I decided to give it a try since I've seen another friend play Ouendan/EBA on her Nintendo DS before.
What got me even more absorbed into the game was the insane replays of top players; I thought maybe one day I could manage feats like that :o .

I saw a YouTube video of someone's replay, and I decided to try it as it looked fun. I raged on my first attempt though, and ended up forgetting about the game for about 3 months. Then, my friend convinced me to play it again, and I got addicted :')

I can't even remember... I think I saw a video on YouTube. I was looking up Queen's "Don't Stop Me Now" and that's when I found the old trailer to osu!, but I'm not entirely sure if that was the first time I found it...

In 2009: Played Ouendan, then my DS broke. Google searched, found this. Gave up after 1-2 days due to crappy PC + crappy old wireless mouse + the mapping style back then.

3 years later: Found osu!droid, then my phone broke. Google searched, found this again. Kept playing because the game was kinda playable with an i7 ultrabook + crappy-ish wired laser mouse.
...then I spent the next few months saving money to buy a desktop PC + better mouse + mechanical keyboard + graphics tablet :roll:

Regional moderator of not existing AlterIWNet (oh, good old memories) was playing it and introduced me to it (inb4 what is alteriwnet - it was way to play Modern warfare 2 on illegal copy, it had pretty nice community similar to osu!, and it was just made to make people play on illegal copies - game was actually DEVELOPED, and was ALOT better than original game. It even had non-existent-on-legal dedicated servers).

My friend briefly introduced osu! to me first. He said that it has a lot of anime songs, etc. So I searched for videos on YouTube and found this.
