I guess people are getting burnt out of these?

Usually I have, like, 3-5 right off the bat.

I would rather you join because you want to and not because you feel like I'm strong-arming you.

I was just surprised/confused that no-one's immediately joined. LIke I said, usually there's at least 2-3 on the first day I post it.

I won't be active in standard for the month of August.
And if I do, all I will be doing is improving at stream maps lmao.

Going to really focus on mania for most of the time in August. I might drop in for September

This will be the rare instance where the top brackets will have the most players instead of a lower one. Marricash is literally the only 200K+ on there.

Sign-ups are officially over and Round 1 has begun. Reminders are going out after I post this.

Scores thread is here.

So we submit our scores through another forums. But what exactly do we submit, a score link? A screenshot? Also do we play with sv2 or sv1 (I may overlooked some details cuz I'm reading the rules on phone)

A score link or screenshot are acceptable.

ANd yes v1, as v2 IIRC still doesn't submit to the website. I need to be able to trawl for the scores if absolutely necessary, but you are responsible for maintaining your links. I will point out when one is broken, of course.

Can/Should we use mods? Also, every new round do I just edit my old post with the new link?

Do mods count towards anything other than more score in a tie?

You may (except for specifically a DTNF D-rank play; I don't mind you submitting shit scores for the sake of not being DQ'd, but I want to see you at least try.)

And yes, you will.

No. I haven't been able to think of a satisfactory (for me) way to weigh mods against each other or NM, so for right now mods only impact your score in the case of a tie.

And to be clear, that DOES mean a NM 98% score will beat a HDDT 95% score because the NM score has higher acc even if the HDDT has a higher score and/or submitted first.

Also, as a heads-up, we're doing a huge catering order at work that will be going out in the next couple of days. To ensure we have everything prepped, I will be going in very early in the morning to help out. This means I will likely be unable to announce the start of round 5 on Wednesday; however, the round will still begin on August 9th at 00:00 Central Time. Be aware that any Round 4 scores that say August 9th on the timestamp from the scores page on-site will not be counted, and any round 5 scores that say August 8th will also not be counted. In that vein, at least for Rounds 4 and 5, please also include the score link alongside an image, since the timestamp on the image should be in your local timezone and not adjusted to mine.

What happen now that my bracket is defunct?

Yes, unfortunately. I do not run 1-person brackets, and I only allow advancements right before sign-ups end as it is unfair for the newcomer(s) even if the free period exists; even moreso if it didn't.

You are still welcome to play the remaining maps on your own, and hopefully next month there will be enough people that you can try again if you wish.


Also, now that I can actually say it, Round 4 is over. Round 5 has begun.

I'm going to be really busy and I've got to take a bit of a break from osu and won't be playing much if at all, but I should be back to at least submit the rest of the scores during free submission. Sorry guys

Just be aware that you'll have to still submit 7/10 to make it to the free period.

I guess I'm DQ'd then, I've submitted three and it wouldn't have been realistic for me to log in every other day even if I'd submitted more 😭

Bit of a shame only the 200-299K bracket made it to the end, but at least thchienkh and NBGamer have a chance to duke it out.

The Challenge is officially over.

There was sadly only one bracket that survived to the end, so there's really only one person who gets to win. And that winner is....NBGamer16!

As usual, expect to see your 1 month's supporter within the next week or so.

My sincerest apologies for the delay in giving out your prizes (and for necro-ing this a month later). I had a mix of financial and IRL issues that kept me from getting to it when I originally planned.

However, your prizes have just been delivered. Thank you for your patience.
