Hey!
So with Catch Mapping World Cup #2 reaching its final stages, I've come to realize that catch really only has 2 mapping contests which are CMWC and Olympiad, both of which being very large when it comes to scale and exposure. Because of this, it feels like there are really long stretches of time without a notable contest for mappers which is why I wanted to organize a seasonal mapping contest.
If anyone's interested, please join the discord for updates
Signups will be announced in the discord at a later date when things get finalized!
The Plan:
if anyones interested in judging contact me on discord at wonjae#2846
suggestions, thoughts, and feedback are strongly welcomed/needed since its the first time I plan on organizing something like this!

The Plan:
Contest Overview
- There are no mapping pre-requisites required for participation!
Anyone can participate as long as their osu! accounts are not restricted. - Contest will consist of 1 round where contestants will map a song from a Featured Artist that has been released within the season (within 3 months of contest start date).
This hopefully makes the contest feel more like a seasonal contest instead of something more yearly like o!cMWC. - Each contestant has to submit two difficulties, with one being an Overdose or Rain, and the other being a Cup, Salad or Platter.
Idealy, I want the winner's content to be uploaded and be accessible for across multiple skill levels to enjoy for that season. - All submissions must be rankable.
No mapset submitted must be intentionally unrankable. Mistakes happen and points will be deducted for them, but this is a regular mapping contest, not aspire. - Maps must NOT be uploaded before judging and results are announced.
- Submissions will not be accepted after the deadlines.
Just don't procrastinate
