Hello! Welcome to Losu!
What is it?
This is a project where I attempt to collect and recover as many beatmaps as I can. Many projects like this one existed before, but what makes this one different is that it continues to get weekly updates! So far, around 1000 maps can be found in the spreadsheet.
Warning! Some earlier posts are outdated with what I said as the project changed goals from remapping beatmaps to archiving them!
Some maps contain Explicit content and there isn't any filters yet for them, so be careful!
Also, for any mappers who want their maps removed from the spread, please contact me and ill do so, cuz maps are probably graveyarded/deleted for a reason
Lastly, if the maps ask for an update, it usually messes them up because of them being deleted or having different mp3 files, so don't update them!
That's all,
Thanks for reading!

The Spreadsheet and Maps:
It contains all the beatmaps that have been found, both those which are salvageable and unsalvageable. Some beatmaps might also have missing information because of the way they were found.
If you know something about any of these that we potentially don't, let us know by messaging me or joining the discord linked below. And in case you have any sort of maps like these, please let us know as well!

Would recommend downloading the spreadsheet as google doesn't like colour... xp

Inspiration:
Basically, I really like exploring old stuff on the internet, and when I got into osu! I decided to explore its thread, going from topic number 1 onwards. During that time, I discovered how much the site evolved and how much stuff was also lost in the process. One of which was beatmaps. Before a beatmap listing on this site existed, there was another in which they were uploaded. Unfortunately, that site no longer exists, so, all the non-ranked maps from there are forever gone in their original form...
OR ARE THEY??
Well, some still survive in some way. Some are still fully available through either their thread posts on alternate sources, some have their .osu files still downloadable, while others are still lost.
Since then, I've also been keeping track of graveyarded or deleted beatmaps, as well as Lost difficulties, unused storyboards and unsubmitted maps in mapsets, a lot of stuff basically. Both as ancient as the game itself, or some that are more recent as well.
Anyways, as much as people probably don't care about these beatmaps, either for being old, unfinished, shitpost or the fact that they don't give any pp, I find them really charming and some are honestly quite cool, so, that's why I'm making this (and also because I'm super bored!!)

Socials:
To make this more entertaining, I've decided to make a discord server for this server. Why exactly? Well, I can't do all of this alone, so, anyone who wants to help recover these beatmaps can help out!

Warning: Features in the server haven't fully been finished yet!
Wanna see others play and show how good you play some of these maps? Feel free to submit replays for our YouTube channel:
