Time to map Normal. @_@ And then more major storyboarding time.

No good. Still a white outline. D:

Wow, there seems to be a lot of love going around here.

Storyboard:
Can you please add a higher quality bg if you can find one?
Also, I guess try to remove the white outline around the Earth again.

Hard:
SPOILER
Normal mod:
01:11:97 (8.10) - Are these legal in a ranked map? If you want to keep these, I advise you sb a warning
02:13:14 (1,2) - this jump is quite large compared to the rest of your diff

Combo mod:
00:34:97 (1,2) - since the lyrics start on 2, remove 1's new combo and add a new combo to 2
01:13:14 (9) - new combo?
01:19:97 (2) - new combo because the vocals don't start till 2?
01:24:80 (4) - new combo for end of vocals?
01:45:64 (7) - new combo?
02:52:30 (7) - new combo?
03:13:64 (7) - ^

Timing section mod:
01:54:97 - move back a quarter note
02:05:64 - ^
03:14:80 - move back a half note

Nice map and sb. Star.

02:13:14 (1,2) - this jump is quite large compared to the rest of your diff Shortened the jump!

Combo mod:
00:34:97 (1,2) - since the lyrics start on 2, remove 1's new combo and add a new combo to 2 "and leave tear drops everywhere <3"
01:13:14 (9) - new combo? Mmmm... Hard to say.
01:19:97 (2) - new combo because the vocals don't start till 2? "A discoball..."
01:24:80 (4) - new combo for end of vocals? Nuh, uh.
01:45:64 (7) - new combo? Long combo on purpose
02:52:30 (7) - new combo? ^
03:13:64 (7) - ^ ^

I also don't want to change the combos since I've SB'd some stuff based on those colors.

Timing section mod:
01:54:97 - move back a quarter note I could've sworn I never put a section directly on a note. o.o Fixed.
02:05:64 - ^ Fixed.
03:14:80 - move back a half note Moved forward instead :P

Nice storyboard you got there <3!

Normal:
Hope you finish this o.o!

Hard:
Too much copy and pasting in here D:! Think of other patterns!

00:29:47 (1) - Not a good jump.
01:10:97 (6) - Make the start of this aligned with 01:11:97 (8) end.
01:11:97 (8) & 01:13:30 (10) - Are these rankable o.o?
01:24:80 (4) - Restack properly.
01:45:80 (1) - Finish.
01:54:97 (1) - Bad jump. Doesn't flow with the music.
02:05:64 (1) - ^
02:15:64 (1) - ^
02:25:97 (6) - Restack properly.

Unless you are mapping more of the song; end the storyboard a second or two after 03:14:80 (11).

Too much copy and pasting in here D:! Think of other patterns! I planned the chorus to be C&P'd. >_>

00:29:47 (1) - Not a good jump. Made a little closer to the right. Wanted to keep symmetry as much as possible.
01:10:97 (6) - Make the start of this aligned with 01:11:97 (8) end. I half agree, half don't. Agree to make the sliders not overlap. Not agree because of spacing and symmetry. I'll wait this one out.
01:11:97 (8) & 01:13:30 (10) - Are these rankable o.o? SB'd warning. ;)
01:24:80 (4) - Restack properly. Oops. Fixed.
01:45:80 (1) - Finish. Done.
01:54:97 (1) - Bad jump. Doesn't flow with the music. Keeping symmetry. -_- Must fix?
02:05:64 (1) - ^ ^

02:25:97 (6) - Restack properly. I fail. >_< Fixed.

Unless you are mapping more of the song; end the storyboard a second or two after 03:14:80 (11). It was hard to see during the previous "hitcircle expansion" SBs, so I wanted this to be noticable.
I WILL storyboard more of the ending. Thanks for modding!! :)

Here's my mod

Blue = Suggestion Red = Check this

[Normal]
00:40:014 (3) - 1 grid to the left so that it's symmetrical with (1)
00:41:047 (1) - Change this to a clap?
00:42:047 (2) - Whistle-finish?

01:25:047 (1) - Lifting the two slider points at the bottom up by a grid makes the beginning and end of the slider line up
01:36:014 (1) - Lifting the two slider points at the bottom down by a grid makes the beginning and end of the slider line up
01:38:014 (3) - finish?
01:39:080 (1) - (slider end) finish?
01:42:080 (2) - (slider start) finish?

02:06:080 (3) - Move forward 1/4 beat and shorten by 1/4 beat
02:55:080 (1) - Try using this slider point layout here
03:14:080 (1) - Do the final note SB like you did in [Hard] It was so awesome :D

No problems found

[Hard]
00:38:097 (2,3) - Line up in the centre, but raised a little?(if you do this reverse 4)
01:25:047 (1) - Maybe add a slider point and move them out like this? http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/497 (the third one must be off grid snap)
02:13:030 - Note in the centre?
No problems found :)

Awesome SB, Awesome Beatmap, not starring this should be punishable by death.

00:41:047 (1) - Change this to a clap? [color=#FF0000]Kirby and I work "interchangeably" with hitsounds. Check out what we did here when compared to Normal. :O
00:42:047 (2) - Whistle-finish?[/color] ^
01:25:047 (1) - Lifting the two slider points at the bottom up by a grid makes the beginning and end of the slider line up Doing it, but I'll ask Kirby if he likes it later.

02:55:080 (1) - Try using this slider point layout here I'll let Kirby see to this. Keeping it the same for now... >_>
03:14:080 (1) - Do the final note SB like you did in [Hard] It was so awesome :D But I did. O_O Sometimes the SB dies in the editor, but it's fine anyway, even after a save. So, yeah, I already did this. :P

Sure. I'm never good with being perfect with those sliders, I suppose.

I have an idea with this.

>02:55:080 (1) - Try using this slider point layout here
I see a nice point with this slider layout. o; But it's to match the one beforehand, so I'm keeping this. Sorry! XD

Normal:
01:56:014 (1,2,3,4) - spacing feels wide compared to other areas of the map

Hard:
00:34:047 (1) - sort of covers the reverse in slider 3
00:39:014 (3,4) - spacing is pretty wierd here ;[
01:11:097 (8,10) - i doubt you are going to change these sliders so at least stack their endpoints.
01:22:080 (1,2,3,4) - i really dont like this :/. Try 1/2 speed sliders here instead of these overlapping sliders
02:34:014 (5,1) - you don't need to but i suggest making the reverse more visible.
02:53:047 (11) - you realise the sb shoots a green #1 instead of a #11?
02:55:047 (5,1) - you don't need to but i suggest making the reverse more visible.
03:14:080 (11) - you realise the sb shoots a blue #1 instead of a #11?

I like the song as well

May I suggest making the speed of the firefly(ies) at the beginning a little less linear? The speed it moves at doesn't really 'fit' the path it's moving. Other than that, it's great!
Ephemeral
Offset should be 10,802 (slightly audible difference on the chorus chord progression at .75x speed)

Why is soft-hitfinish delayed?

Absolutely amazing ambient storyboard - though I think you could probably find a better set of rotating earth sprites. I've also never seen a white firefly before - aren't they usually orange?

I like the way it moves currently; somewhat random like a firefly. But if you could show me a path/speed that's a little less linear, I'd greatly appreciate it. ;)

This is pretty awesome in all aspects. Remember, I nazi because I care.

[General/Storyboard]
The Earth sprites could stand to be less pixellated, or at least fixed up so there's not that little bit of white around the edges.
I don't think it's necessary to go back to the Fireflies background at the end.

[Hard]
00:36:968 - I feel like there should be another hitcircle here.
01:22:802 (1,2,3,4) - This is the only 0.5x section in the map, so it feels out of place, and I find it doesn't work that well anyway.
01:38:802 (1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3) - Nothing wrong, per se, but I wish this were mapped more to the vocals.
02:14:802 (5,1,2,3,1,2,3,4) - This part doesn't flow like the rest of the map does. The spacing is strange, and some of the "down-hits" (hitcircles and slider starts) land on weak notes in the music.

[Normal]
01:38:802 (1,2,3,1,1,2,3,4) - Ditto the comment on [Hard], but it's less of an issue here.

I don't think it's necessary to go back to the Fireflies background at the end. I'll consider it; I was really going for a scale in and out effect with two backgrounds.

[Hard]
00:36:968 - I feel like there should be another hitcircle here. This is more focused on vocals, so I dunno...
01:22:802 (1,2,3,4) - This is the only 0.5x section in the map, so it feels out of place, and I find it doesn't work that well anyway. I'm going back to 1x then, but I'll need a pattern that people like that wasn't the previous one. :o
01:38:802 (1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3) - Nothing wrong, per se, but I wish this were mapped more to the vocals. I guess Starrod and I mapped this part of the chorus for background rhythm and the following two choruses for vocals.
02:14:802 (5,1,2,3,1,2,3,4) - This part doesn't flow like the rest of the map does. The spacing is strange, and some of the "down-hits" (hitcircles and slider starts) land on weak notes in the music. Looks like I'm changing this.

*I see that the SB is moved up to compensate for the grid being moved up (orz).
*I don't really like the comboburst sound that's in the folder. For people like me that don't use combo bursts, it just sounds out of place and distracting. Could you delete it or force osu! default skin or something? =X I'm not really sure what to say about this... D:
