Hey, just wanted to add some little things!
First of all, gratz Hanzer for your map being approved, I hope you'll be able to carry your map even higher.
I'll try to give my impression about what happened and my feeling about some parts in your beatmap.
I was pretty sad to see some people saying the map was bad (or insults.) without giving any arguments but it was the same for people who were talking about 'art' and saying bullshit like "if you can't read it, you're bad."
I think everybody noticed that you wanted to do something fun and unusual to play. For me, you reached this objective but there is some things which I disagree in your beatmap. I think peppy pointed out very well the problems.
You've some parts which are soooooo fun to play like the second kiai's beginning (03:38:629) which may be hard but it's readable.
Nevertheless, there are some other parts which are really weird imo. You're doing weird stackings sometimes like 04:14:993 (1,1,2,1,2,3,1,2) - (moreover, you're using double on this pattern which is even harder to read but I'll talk about this in my second part).
I think you've did a good/really good job with this map, but I just feel you killed all your work by trying to increase the difficulty with things which are unreadable (or really hard to read). It may comes from 3 things : stacking, really high spacing, double hit circles.
peppy resumed for stacking and high spacing so let's talk about double hit circles.
Generally, I love doubles but here, I just don't like it sometimes. I remember the one of fanzhen's map (
http://osu.ppy.sh/b/261524 [Another]) in the first 10 seconds. It's a little bit the same principle but there is two things which allow this to be readable.
- The spacing isn't so high (I mean x0.2 to x2.3, it hurts a lot). The spacing in the timeline is the same so, for me, it shouldn't be like that.
- There is a flow here which isn't the case on your map. Things like 00:51:811 (1,2,1,2) - or 03:53:629 (1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2) - is 'ok' for me, 02:33:629 (1,2,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,4) - this isn't. And even more because 02:35:220 (3,4) - is the same thing that your double but with high spacing. I know that if some guys are doing this on their map, they're just insulted by modders x)
Anyway, I'm waiting to see what will be ppy's mod :3 I'll be happy if you answer to my post (when you'll be able to post lelelel :p) to know exactly your feelings about it. I'm definitely looking forward to this and be able to discover soon a really good map. GL.
