17:53 Leader: oioi
17:54 Stefan: oioi
17:55 Leader: when will we do irc
17:55 Stefan: how about now
17:55 Leader: yay
17:58 Stefan: so
17:58 Stefan: let us start
17:58 Stefan: the first thing I want to check before I go in detail is the spread
18:00 Leader: is that wrong
18:00 Leader: because i tried to keep
18:00 Leader: 100 notes difference
18:00 Leader: between diffs
18:00 Leader: and mmm stars are okay but I don't know how much they are useful for this
18:00 Stefan: Star rating isn't the issue
18:00 Stefan: unless you skin an icon
18:01 Stefan: But there should be a good gap if you jump from Difficulty to Difficulty.
18:03 Stefan: so currently it's quite high
18:04 Leader: oh
18:04 Stefan: While Muzukashii provides some Triplets (four or five) Oni use ddkdkkd
18:04 Stefan: or kkddkdk
18:04 Stefan: that isn't a good transistion
18:05 Stefan: because players will be - for sure - overrun by this
18:05 Stefan: I am kinda divided about the Oni tho
18:06 Stefan: Some parts looks fine compared with Muzukashii while others aren't.
18:06 Stefan: And imo I'd suggest to nerf Oni for a bit
18:06 Stefan: Else a 5th Difficulty (between Muzukashii and the current Oni) would be needed
18:09 Leader: nerf Oni?
18:09 Leader: mmm
18:09 Leader: that could be done
18:09 Stefan: Let me point out what would you need to make easier:
18:10 Stefan: 00:51:706 - 01:17:452 - there is not a single 1/1 break here. I understand the intention of mapping... continous? idk the corret word
18:11 Stefan: anyway, having small breaks sometimes really won't hurt but cause a huge effect in the gap
18:11 Stefan: Because this kind of mapping is more used in harder Difficulties - such as Inner Oni.
18:11 Leader: But I feel like kiai deserves to be like this
18:11 Leader: ;_;
18:11 Leader: it floooows
18:12 Stefan: I know
18:12 Stefan: and I understood why you decided to map like that
18:12 Stefan: but it's causing this problem
18:15 Stefan: 01:00:213 - 01:06:258 - 00:53:497 - 01:10:512 - 01:15:885 - 01:02:676 -
18:16 Stefan: These notes could be removed since you work a lot with the vocals here and make the short breaks in the singing useful for small 1/1 breaks
18:17 Leader: mmm
18:17 Leader: sure
18:21 Stefan: let me know when you're done
18:22 Leader: oh updating
18:22 Stefan: ayyy
18:22 Leader: done
18:23 Stefan: Set the SV to 1.40 (in Oni)
18:23 Stefan: 1.60x is used for low BPM
18:23 Leader: isn't 134 bpm low?
18:23 Leader: especially for taiko
18:23 Leader: lool
18:23 Leader: you guys can stream up to 300bpm
18:24 Stefan: 120-110 would be
18:24 Stefan: and everything below
18:24 Leader: o
18:24 Stefan: however, people still use 1.40x for 130 BPM songs
18:25 Leader: kk
18:25 Stefan: it's more or less a rule to use it in this way.
18:25 Leader: didn't know
18:25 Leader: :0
18:25 Stefan: 01:27:527 (12) - unrankable Finisher note
18:26 Stefan: Either remove the previous note or remove the Finisher here.
18:26 Leader: 01:27:527 (12) - a dD is unrankable, to make it rankable, you should delete the d, or use a kD.
18:27 Leader: from previous mods
18:27 Leader: that sounds weird
18:27 Leader: I thought I couldn't make dD so i did dK because it felt better to me
18:28 Stefan: wait
18:28 Leader: deleted (11) btw, better have a K or a D at the end, in your opinion?
18:28 Stefan: let me quick ask something in #taiko
18:29 Leader: it's not a big problem to me, i was just wondering
18:29 Stefan:
t/251894/start=018:29 Stefan: since this is bubbled and going to be changed I better ask first
18:29 Stefan: because basically dK is fine
18:29 Stefan: but it's not dk here but kdddkdkdK
18:30 Leader: oh ok!
18:30 Stefan: let's say removing 01:27:302 (10) - makes it rankable
18:30 Stefan: but that sounds awkward as shit
18:31 Stefan: oh and meanwhile you want to resnap all notes
18:31 Stefan: found some which are unsnapped for 1ms
18:31 Leader: then last three notes are going to be
18:31 Leader: kkD
18:31 Stefan: yeah
18:31 Stefan: that works
18:32 Stefan: or do you mean to change it as kdddkdkkD?
18:32 Stefan: because
18:33 Stefan: I honestly would perfer ddkkd kkD here
18:33 Leader: I wanted to do first one
18:35 Stefan: We leave this open until I get confirmation by someone
18:35 Stefan: because #taiko can't do shit atm
18:35 Leader: mhm
18:35 Leader: your pattern works too
18:35 Stefan: oh
18:35 Stefan: well then :3c
18:40 Stefan: anywy
18:40 Stefan: brb
18:41 Leader: kk
18:50 Stefan: ok
18:50 Stefan: uh
18:50 Stefan: 1.30x?
18:50 Leader: I was updating
18:50 Leader: ...eh
18:51 Leader: silly mistake
18:51 Leader: fixd
18:53 Stefan: Hmm that looks much better now
18:53 Stefan: So let us start with the actual IRC Mod
18:53 Stefan: hue
18:54 Leader: I might disappear
18:54 Leader: in 10 minutes
18:54 Leader: because dinner
18:54 Stefan: aye
18:54 Stefan: okay then
18:54 Stefan: I just throw the stuff here I find
18:55 Stefan: 00:08:049 (24,25,26,27,28) - idk what exactly are you following with the triplet
18:56 Stefan: but kdk d k sounds better to me
18:56 Stefan: because of the violine (?) sound at 00:08:049 - 00:08:273 -
18:57 Leader: yeah, you're right
18:58 Stefan: 00:09:616 (32) - music and pattern have a better impact without this note
18:59 Leader: deleted
18:59 Stefan: 00:10:736 (36,37,38,39) - same about (39) like abov
18:59 Stefan: and (37,38) should be switched
19:00 Stefan: because the vocal is stronger on (38)'s position than (37)'s
19:02 Leader: okk
19:06 Stefan: 00:22:377 (98,99,100,101,102) - kkddk?
19:06 Stefan: again due violine sound at 00:22:377 - 00:22:489 -
19:08 Leader: then ok
19:08 Stefan: 00:32:452 (147,148,149,150,151) - I guess dkkkd is more the pattern you want to follow
19:09 Stefan: 00:35:586 (163) - imo I'd leave this note out
19:09 Stefan: the vocals makes it really unfitting imo
19:10 Leader: done
19:12 Stefan: 01:24:168 (395) - Maybe another break here?
19:13 Leader: naaaah
19:13 Leader: leaving the end like this, without relevant breaks
19:13 Stefan: Okay.
19:13 Stefan: rhythm wise there is nothing wrong here
19:14 Stefan: Also it looks much better now with the gap between Oni and Muzukashii
19:14 Stefan: So uh.. are you going for dinner now?
19:14 Stefan: Or can I go to Muzu now
19:14 Leader: yes ww
19:15 Stefan: Alright
19:15 Stefan: let me know when you are back
19:36 Leader: back
19:36 Stefan: alright
19:36 Stefan: finishing my stuff here I've started
19:36 Stefan: then coming back to the mod
19:38 Leader: ok!
19:57 Stefan: ayy
http://puu.sh/gw66e/585968ecfe.jpg good that it went so fast
19:57 Stefan: okay, back to your map
19:57 Leader: GEWONNEN
19:57 Stefan: pls
19:57 Stefan: leave my german client alone :c
19:57 *Stefan is editing [http://osu.ppy.sh/b/343319 ClariS - irony -TV Mix- [Muzukashii]]
20:04 Stefan: 01:25:959 (1,2) - remove (2) and make (1) to d
20:05 Leader: ok
20:06 Stefan: 00:20:810 (62,64,65) - since this part here is the same like above - and the above sounds to me better - I'd remove (62) and move (65) to 00:21:258 - . Then swap this note with 00:21:482 (64) -
20:06 Stefan:
http://puu.sh/gw6OW/350196a95b.jpg20:07 Leader: aaa that was hard
20:07 Leader: okay
20:07 Leader: (hard to understand)
20:08 Stefan: sorry
20:08 Stefan: my english not su god :-}
20:09 Stefan: 00:32:228 (105) - since that combo pattern is damn long I'd suggest breaking it into two parts
20:09 Stefan: in short: remove that one
20:10 Leader: sure
20:15 Stefan: Hmm
20:15 Stefan: Another issue I detect in Muzukashii and Futsuu is the lack on break times
20:16 Stefan: Kantan is... let me see
20:16 Leader: same as Oni?
20:16 Stefan: Hmm not exactly.
20:16 Stefan: in Oni it was because of the Difficulty
20:17 Stefan: here we require some since the lower Difficulties works more as "Tutorial" Difficulties
20:17 Stefan: more or less
20:17 Leader: I see
20:17 Stefan: even Muzukashii which should introduce Triplets and longer pattern.
20:18 Stefan: Kantan seems extremely repetitive in the non-kiai section
20:18 Stefan: anyway, back to Muzukashii, we should try to build some brighter breaks
20:18 Stefan: (which doesn't mean we will nerf it
20:19 Leader: alright
20:27 Stefan: 00:03:571 - 00:07:154 - 00:10:064 - 00:16:333 - 00:16:557 - 00:17:004 - 00:18:571 - 00:20:810 - 00:23:721 - 00:25:288 - 00:32:452 - 00:34:691 - 00:36:482 - 00:37:825 - 00:38:721 - 00:41:407 - 00:42:079 - 00:44:765 - 00:47:452 - 00:49:019 -
20:27 Leader: whoa lol
20:28 Stefan: These notes can easily be removed since they either doesn't really fit to the concept you're mapping (switching from vocal to instrument and opposite) or are simply not required for the gameplay
20:29 Stefan: You probably find all these notes important tho
20:30 Stefan: since they overlay beats
20:30 Leader: well.. kind of
20:30 Stefan: either vocals or background music.
20:30 Leader: the map seems weird now
20:30 Stefan: but the "secret" in having a good Muzukashii is to emphasize the most important things
20:31 Stefan: Oni is the level where you can take most part of freedom to map by your style or the actual song
20:32 Stefan: the difficulties below cannot work this way, unfortunately
20:32 Leader: now seems easier though
20:32 Leader: I always thought it was weird
20:32 Leader: especially for one (me) who can't stand anything above muzu
20:32 Leader: kk deleted
20:32 Stefan: Many people skip Kantan in most cases
20:32 Stefan: because they're too easy
20:33 Stefan: as well that often happens to Futsuu and they immediately start with Muzukashiis
20:33 Stefan: but the difficulty behind Muzukashii are -) longer pattern with more complex pattern.
20:34 Stefan: d d k k d ... is pretty easy to follow while d k d d k d k d d k wouldn't be
20:34 Stefan: (ofc I am talking about 1/2 rhythm)
20:34 Stefan: and people need by this way breaks to.. well uh
20:35 Stefan: hard to explain in english.. just to get their concentration back for the next parts
20:35 Stefan: it seems weird to you since it's a piece of cake for you to play the difficulty now
20:36 Leader: yeah got it
20:36 Stefan: /endofwalloftext
20:36 Stefan: lol
20:36 Stefan: Anyway, also the Kiai needs some more breaks
20:36 Stefan: but might having less than the non-kiai
20:38 Leader: ohh
20:41 Stefan: 00:52:601 - 00:55:736 - 00:59:765 - 01:02:900 - 01:06:930 - 01:10:064 - 01:10:512 - 01:14:094 - 01:17:004 - 01:13:646 - 01:20:586 - 01:24:616 - 01:25:736 - 01:26:183 -
20:42 Stefan: 01:22:153 (101,102) - how about to remove (102) and move (101) to the next red tick?
20:44 Leader: 01:02:900 (38,39) - keeping patterns like this
20:45 Leader: and the second one
20:45 Leader: (still doing..)
20:45 Stefan: sure.
20:48 Leader: update
20:48 Leader: I guess
20:51 Stefan: that looks quite good now
20:51 Stefan: Alright, let's go to Futsuu
20:52 Stefan: similar like in Muzukashii you also need here more breaks.
20:52 Stefan: going to post some of the notes you can remove
20:55 Stefan: 00:04:691 - 00:08:273 - 00:17:676 - 00:18:124 - 00:21:482 -
20:56 Stefan: 00:24:840 (44,45) - I kinda feel I suggested something in the past for them...
20:56 Stefan: let me check
20:57 Stefan: k never mind
20:57 Stefan: 00:24:840 (49,50) - move (49) to 00:24:616 - and 00:25:288 (50) - to 00:25:512 -
21:01 Stefan: 00:31:557 (65,66) - move both one tick back (to be consistent with the suggestion above) and remove 00:32:452 (67) -
21:01 Leader: alrighttt
21:09 Stefan: 00:36:482 - should also be removed.
21:09 Stefan: 00:40:512 (6) - k maybe?
21:09 Leader: Yeah
21:10 Stefan: 00:47:004 - a k note mabe?
21:10 Stefan: *Maybe
21:10 Stefan: 00:49:019 (3,4) - move both one tick back
21:11 Leader: ok to the second one
21:11 Stefan: 00:51:706 - 00:55:288 -
http://puu.sh/gwcoq/6512331f10.jpg21:12 Stefan: Seems appropriate since it overlay the vocals mostly and still leaving time to have a break
21:12 Leader: okay!
21:14 Stefan: 00:55:288 - 00:58:870 - do the same here again
21:14 Leader: same pattern?
21:14 Stefan: Yeah
21:14 Stefan: except hitsounds
21:15 Leader: ok
21:15 Stefan: 01:02:900 - 01:04:467 - 01:05:139 - should be removed
21:16 Stefan: 01:06:034 - 01:09:616 - and 01:09:616 - 01:13:198 - again like the first half
21:20 Leader: 00:51:706 - like this?
21:23 Stefan: aaaaaaa
21:23 Stefan: woops
21:23 Stefan: yes
21:25 Leader: done
21:25 Stefan: Okay
21:25 Stefan: Update it
21:25 Stefan: would like to see how it looks so far.
21:26 Leader: aaaand done
21:26 Stefan: lmao
21:26 Stefan: it's harder now, according to SR
21:27 Leader: ...lol
21:27 Stefan: Anyway
21:27 Stefan: is there any chance to use a better background?
21:27 Leader: NAAAAH
21:27 Leader: don't tell me that this is inappropriate
21:27 Stefan: but..
http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/287687521:27 Stefan: the gurl is cut off :c
21:28 Stefan: tho people with a fetish for backs might be happy
21:28 Leader: oh snap
21:28 Stefan: it isn't inappropriate btw
21:28 Stefan: but.. quite crap for taiko mode
21:30 Leader: mmm i'll look then
21:32 Leader: go on with kantan if you want to
21:32 Leader: 'o'
21:32 Leader: brb
21:33 Stefan: ok
21:42 Stefan: uh
21:42 Stefan: In Futsuu: 00:32:004 (61) - move it to 00:31:780 -
21:43 Stefan: 01:20:362 - 01:27:527 - hold it similar/the same like 00:15:885 - 00:23:049 -
21:46 Leader: mhh
21:46 Leader: done
21:46 Leader: and back
21:49 Stefan: 01:16:109 - 01:16:557 - could also be removed
21:50 Stefan: NOW I am fine with Futsuu.
21:50 Leader: yaaaaaaaaay
21:53 Leader: I can't find a cool bg
21:55 Stefan: orz
21:55 Stefan: know this feeling
21:55 Stefan: it is not unrankable tho
21:56 Leader: then I'll keep it
21:56 Leader: (for now..)
21:56 Leader: keep looking while you mod kantan
21:57 Stefan: yup
21:57 Stefan: oh right
21:57 Stefan: change the SV in Kantan and Futsuu to 1.40
22:01 Leader: oook
22:01 Stefan: 00:24:840 (12) - move it one tick back
22:02 Leader: red?
22:02 Stefan: Yes
22:02 Leader: assuming we are using 1/2 layout
22:02 Leader: ok
22:02 Stefan: 00:32:004 (20) - same here
22:02 Stefan: to be consistent
22:04 Stefan: Actually you could redo 00:23:049 - 00:37:377 -
22:04 Stefan: since it's extremely repetitive and Hitsounds could be used more efficient
22:06 Stefan: 00:23:049 - 00:30:213 -
http://puu.sh/gwhez/650b81e9b6.jpg22:09 Leader: done and trying to change second part
22:09 Stefan: ok
22:11 Leader: updated
22:11 Leader: 'o' go check
22:24 Stefan: ok
22:25 Stefan: sorry
22:25 Stefan: was talking in #lounge about stuff
22:26 Stefan: 00:38:273 (29) - remove
22:26 Stefan: 00:41:855 (33) - move it to 00:40:512 -
22:27 Leader: done and done
22:27 Stefan: 00:45:437 (37,1) - also remove them
22:28 Stefan: 00:49:691 (5) - personally I'd replace it with a spinner
22:28 Stefan: or make it at least longer
22:28 Stefan: until 00:50:810 -
22:32 Leader: 00:51:706 (1) - can you tell me what do you have here
22:33 Leader: in kantan
22:33 Stefan: D
22:34 Leader: thanksss
22:43 Stefan: 00:52:601 (2) - is probably not needed
22:43 Stefan: and can be removed
22:43 Leader: ook
22:49 Stefan: oh god
22:49 Stefan: sorry
22:49 Stefan: yeah
22:49 Stefan: back to mod
22:49 Stefan: 00:59:765 (9) - that one too
22:50 Stefan: 01:06:930 (16) -
22:50 Stefan: 01:14:094 (24) -
22:51 Leader: ook
22:51 Stefan: talking with #german about sleep cycle
22:52 Stefan: gr8
22:53 Stefan: 01:04:243 (15,16) - should be moved to the white ticks
22:53 Stefan:
http://puu.sh/gwlvO/3af9dd7b5a.jpg22:56 Leader: done
23:01 Stefan: 00:22:601 (9) - should also be removed
23:01 Stefan: since you don't have this note at the end
23:01 Stefan: and it's also the only difference
23:02 Stefan: 01:17:452 (29) - aaaaaaaand
23:02 Stefan: this one should also be gone
23:02 Stefan: after then
23:02 Stefan: update
23:03 Leader: asgdag
23:03 Leader: done
23:04 Leader: that was long
23:09 Stefan: Hmkay
23:09 Stefan: let me play the whole set
23:12 Leader: lmao i crashed
23:12 Stefan: rip
23:19 Stefan: So
23:19 Stefan: the thing is the gap is still a bit big between Kantan and Futsuu
23:20 Stefan: and if you don't mind
23:20 Stefan: I'd like to call some people to check this out
23:20 Leader: okay
23:20 Stefan: Alright
