Sorry to bother, I'm a noob and don't really have a place in these discussions,

but recently since the new system came out, I've been playing harder maps (That I get a terrible score in).
I'll get like a B or C on a map, then come back to it later and beat my personal highscore on the map, then I visibly watch my ranking drop when the screen flash updates in the song stats screen. I know the system is unstable but I don't remember this being a thing in the old system, correct me if I'm wrong. This makes me not want to play online and improve w.w""

This happened to me in the old system and I put it down to people that were lower ranks than me moving up and therefore putting me down, I assumed this only updated after i'd played my first song. There also seems to be a bug on other gamemodes where peoples PP is going down after beating there personal best, I expect this will be patched soon if it's also affecting o!m.

Dropping your pp by beating your score is extremely unlikely in o!m. You'd need to get just barely more score with a lot worse accuracy for that to happen.

The rank drop most likely occured due to other people passing you, as it always has been already.

Ok, I think I can debunk this now, this morning I played a map and it shows my rank as ~7990, this was an unranked map so nothing was affected, this being just to make sure I didn't get overly surpassed while sleeping.

I don't think playing an unranked map triggers a rank refresh.

http://osu.ppy.sh/u/86188 <-- This is bullshit. No one would play dt back then, now everyone is, and he's sprung up to the top because of key mods and dt. I don't care as much about dt, I care about the key mods coming back. So many players are better than that, and I don't know why they can't be up there?

Can you name any players who are better than Staiain at stepmania style maps? What gives you the right to say which kind of skill is worth the most? I can understand if you disagree, that's totally valid, but try being less offensive. It's not like your opinion is worth more than that of other's.

#1 Judging from the general opinion here the DT bonus for pp will get removed for now. It might return when there has been found a solution regarding nomod plays overwriting DT, but as it is now it doesn't make much sense to have DT give a bonus.

#2 Keymods don't decrease pp gain at the moment. This will change.

Right now, I can compare Furry. There are more players out there though, and the only reason Furry isn't high is because he is playing unranked maps it seems to me.

I've spectated him, and he's good. May pass Staiain. He has dt ranks on autoconverts, but 4k, just like Staiain.

Any videos?

His scarlet rose dt pass with 4k.

ZXCV wrote:

If you really think Scarlet Rose DT pass is impressive, then I suggest you go watch more videos, especially Staiain's. Your basis on what defines a "pro" player is severely flawed.

I can clear Scarlet Rose HDDT on 7K, and so can tons of other players. Does this make us all top #50 material?

ZXCV wrote:

Good, so you agree that passes on DT autoconverts are completely obsolete when it comes to gauging a player's skill.
Case closed.

Didn't we decided that already? That's why it's not giving pp now.

I find it moronic how you guys are mainly blaming me and aiming most threats at me. Many other users have spoken about this, and are tired of it.

I'm just the one that spoke up. This is all of their opinions plus mine, so go scout them out and threaten them.

october scream, you are ignoring my post and every point we have made.

THIS IS FROM YOUR USERPAGE

if you are going to spearhead a movement to get keymods unranked, you should expect that we will confront you about these issues we have with your argument. we have not made a SINGLE threat, nor are we blaming you. we are simply asking you to explain yourself and refute what we are saying.

until you are willing to do so, this is the last i have to say on the matter

I'm aware of that petition. I started it because no one else would.

If you want me to explain, fine. I didn't like it when key modders would pass other players, but I have no use of that petition now actually since it's been fixed already.

both DT and keymod converts will return to the PP algorithm once tom94 figures out what to do with them, and this has been stated explicitly

I am glad that DT and key-mod conversions will return to the rankings at the least. I will agree as a osu!mania player who could have probably taken Staiain's speed route to reach the top 10-20 despite not being able to proficiently play above 6k -- the PP scaling could have definitely been improved a bit.

I wanted to make a suggestion about separating performance points by keys in osu!mania since you're practically playing different games when you add keys, but... one of the toughest parts about scoring in osu!mania is that most players who can play higher key beat-maps are (usually) also capable of playing lower ones as well, making separated scoreboards/ranks by key a bit redundant for those who can play 8k all the way down to 4k.

I'm a 7K player, I suck at everything which is not 7K, sorry.

So just to check this at this moment in time playing a map with a keymod will give you 0pp?

To me it just looks like October Scream is just a slow pp farmer that wants to ruin the game and stop actual skilled people from being able to get good ranks, rather than just suck it up and improve his own skill

Ouch.

Although, it's a quite deserved response considering that this thread was quiet until he called the situation bullshit and had a hissy-fit, haha
