Welcome to the second off-topic mapping contest! the participants will be mapping osu!standard maps and competing for the podium, the contest will start when at least 7 people join in and the judges were chosen, anyone (with experience in mapping or not) can join and have some fun. The challenger can choose any song that is featured in osu!, take the one you feel more comfortable with and start doing your thing, if you make multiple diffs only the hardest one will be rated by the judges. Its important to remember that each judge has a preference and a opinion of what a good map is about, the details will be listed below.


Judge abraker
Likes: 4/5 star maps, rough/griddy patterns , reading, streams, and agility type maps.
Dislikes: easy jumps, sliders.


Judge Wimpy Cursed
Likes: streams, bursts and tech maps.
Dislikes: "lame" jumps and inconsistency.

Judge I AM VERY SMART
Likes: anything as long as it follows the osu! ranking criteria.
Dislikes: high BPM deathstreams and gimmick maps.


RULES TO PARTICIPATE:

1. At least 60% of the song needs to me mapped, 55% is tolerable but you may lose some points (the minimum draw time allowed is 1:30), any lower than this you'll be disqualified.

2. The star rating will be capped to 6.00 stars, the judges cant rate something they  cant play.

3. Your map BPM and timing needs to be correct for it to be approved.

4. If your map cant be downloaded, be it a glitch or some sketchy thing, you'll unfortunately, be disqualified.

5. Your beatmap page needs to identify that the map was made for this contest somewhere, be it the diff name or in the description of the map.

6. You can only use musics that are featured, any other will be denied.

7. The map needs to be uploaded to osu! official site.

8. Foul play will not be tolerated. Every contestant is expected to have a fair chance at winning. If   you can't follow this, you will be mercelessly disqualified from this contest and probably from any other osu! contests as well.

9. If you send your map in the last hour of the event, expect the analysis to be a    little rushed.

I will give ONE YEAR of supporter to the winner in this edition.

Judgement:
Your map will be rated by the judges, the minimum points you can earn is 0 and the maximum is 100 (per judge), the results will be revealed as soon as the contest ends, take your time to make the best map you can.

You'll have 50 days to make your map.
GLHF!

thats how it was on the other one, I didnt want to change much stuff since it worked in the past

iirc it's supposed to make it easier to check for bpm, song length and what not

think I fell off the list somehow, ended up only being you rating my map after you realized.

anyway, this is pretty good timing, basically just finished my last map, just got to hitsound it. Think I'll try and make something for this.

edit: I should wait until the contest starts first to start though right

hmm, picking a song, looks like anaxii is saving the judges' fingers from possible 210+bpm metal, though I wouldn't be adding any deathstreams to an insane/low expert map

it is interesting trying to play to judges with conflicting interests while picking a song you want to map though

I don't think it's that much of a conflict. Deathstreams sound unrealistic for this anyway
And if it follows the ranking criteria, that could push people to make a map that should have better quality

keremaru
just realized i ran into a minor maybe major problem
on one hand, one of the judges wants this to follow ranking criteria and the star cap is 6*
on the other, the other two hate sliders and deathstreams and i'm mapping fusyoku
decisions, decisions
i may or may not just wind up doing it like most other 5* icdd maps

bro. the guitar solo is playing offbeat triplets (1/3 on 1/6 snaps) against a straight rhythm section.

:notlikethis:

thought i was just mishearing it at first, but put some whistles on 1/3 and it was way behind.
edit: probably a mistaken early entrance in recording that was left snapped to offbeats tbh since it seems to get back to 1/3 after an offbeat 1/4 gallop, the downbeat is syncopated so that could have caused it.

passive mapping bullshit go!

maybe I could also just map it 1/3 and make HS louder, but idk
WitherMite
so I heard abraker like circles


of course this is just the HS diff

should be done tomorrow, just want to look the actual map over once more after some sleep and then pick out better hs samples, clap especially is a bit harsh for this song.

Finished map btw: beatmapsets/2269937#osu/4834707
