    1. 您的账号注册时间必须在2023年12月1日之前。
    2. 您未曾在其他osu!模式的作图比赛(如PDC, NPC, MBC, oBWC等)中获得过奖项。
    3. 您不曾担任过osu!模式的NAT, QAT, BAT, MAT和BN等职位。
    4. 您的“新人分数”必须小于7.27。(计算方式请见下文)
    5. 在比赛的各个阶段,组委会还可能对您进行人工审查,若您未通过,则仍可能无法获得奖项。
计算新人分数
您也可以联系组委Mafumafu帮助您计算您的分数。
  1. 请记录下您2024-01-23之前所有osu!模式上架难度的星数和游玩时间(单位:秒)。这包括您为他人制作的客座难度(GD)和您与其他人合作的难度(Collab,只计算您制作部分的游玩时间)。请注意,您自己谱面内其他人为您制作的客座难度不在计算范围内。
  2. 将您的难度按照星数分为3.00* - 3.99*, 4.00* - 4.99*, 5.00* - 5.99* 和 >6.00*四组。星数小于3.00的难度不计。
  3. 将每组内所有难度的游玩时间相加,您在该组获得的“新人分数”为该组总的游玩时间乘以系数,系数为:3.00* - 3.99*: 0.35, 4.00* - 4.99*: 0.7, 5.00* - 5.99*: 1.4, >6.00*: 2.8。
  4. 将所有组的分数相加。
  5. 如果您的总得分不大于7.27,则恭喜您符合新人条件!
例:假如Mapper A有2个rank难度和一个collab难度:rank难度1星数为4.52,游玩时间为230秒。rank难度2星数为5.80,游玩时间为191秒。collab难度内,A制作的部分游玩时间为48秒,难度为4.2.
则他的得分为:0.7 * (230 + 48) / 60 + 1.4 * 191 / 60 = 7.7 > 7.27。很遗憾,他不符合新人条件。

  1. Submission site:
    1. Instrumental: https://mappersguild.com/contests/listing?contest=647ed683857fb2a47bfe3bc8
    2. Vocal: https://mappersguild.com/contests/listing?contest=65b08f18d254449b92a641b8
  2. Submission Requirements
    1. Your submission must be .osz exported from the osu! editor.
    2. Your submission should comply with the Ranking Criteria, except for those cannot apply, e.g., Spread.
    3. Please specify your username as the "Creator" of the map. Except for the "Creator", your submission should not contain information that help with identifying you.
    4. You must complete your submission independently. Please do not upload or share you submission with others.
    5. You can use custom hitsounds and combo colors. You cannot add backgrounds, videos or storyboards to your submission.
    6. Please do not modify metadata such as Artist and Tags. You can set preview points, but cannot modify BPM and offset.
  3. Newspaper Cup 2024 welcomes every valid osu! user. However, to be eligible for prizes, you must qualify as a "Novice" as specified below:
    1. You must joined osu! before 2023-12-01.
    2. You are not winnders from other mapping contests (e.g., PDC, NPC, MBC, oBWC, etc.) in osu! mode.
    3. You are not, or have never been a member of NAT, QAT, BAT, MAT, BN, etc. in osu! mode.
    4. Your "Novice Score" must be lower than 7.27. (See "Novice Score calculation" below.)
    5. Throughout the contest, the hosts may manually inspect if you qualify for the Novice status.
Novice Score calculation (Example below)
You can also ask host Mafumafu to calculate the score for you!
  1. Note down the star difficulty and drain time (in seconds) of all the ranked difficulties (osu! mode, before 2024-01-23) by you. This includes your GDs to others' sets and collabs (drain time of your section). GDs that are made by others to your set do NOT count!
  2. Add all the drain times within the star difficulty ranges of 3.00 - 3.99, 4.00 - 4.99, 5.00 - 5.99 and >6.00 separately, and divide each drain time sum by 60 (to get minutes). Ignore anything below 3.00*.
  3. Get the "Novice Score" you get from each star difficulty range by multipling the drain time sum with the weights. (3.00* - 3.99*: 0.35, 4.00* - 4.99*: 0.7, 5.00* - 5.99*: 1.4, >6.00*: 2.8)
  4. Sum all the scores together.
  5. If the sum is not greater to 7.27, then congratulations, you qualify as a Novice mapper!
For example, if Mapper A has 2 ranked difficulties and 1 collab difficulties. Ranked Diff 1: 4.52* / 230 seconds. Ranked Diff 2: 5.80* / 191 seconds. Collab section: 4.2* / 48 seconds.
Then their total score will be: 0.7 * (230 + 48) / 60 + 1.4 * 191 / 60 = 7.7 > 7.27. Unfortunately, they are not qualified to be "Novice".

Judging

评委评分



  1. Judging criteria:
    1. Expertise (50%): Expertise refers to how well the map execute to decetly reflect the elements music. This reflects the technical skill of a mapper. However, in Pending Cup, judging is not modding.
