Ironmouse and VShojo have come together to work in collaboration with osu! and BTMC to organise an event for the community.
"Waifu Jam" is a new single from IronMouse and we are taking an interesting spin with this new mapping contest!
Ironmouse is a female American VTuber known for her singing skills, her amazing personality (contrary to popular belief, she is not a mouse). Partnered with VShojo, she confidently aims to push herself more every single day and sing her heart out for the world to hear!
But mappers, don't get it twisted. This isn't your everyday mapping contest with your usual set of judges and criteria benchmarks. Pfft! This time -- you can be the judge! With the top 16 submissions entering into a 1v1 Tournament Style bracket to compete live on stream! It'll be up to the community to vote which map should proceed to the next round! By the way,the demon queen herself will gladly offer a $1000 cash prize to the winner... But you didn't hear that from us.
The rules for this Mapping Contest are as follows:
