I see it everywhere, but I don't know what it's supposed to mean.

I am pulling this out of my ass but I think overmapping is placing notes when there is no beat to go with it.

when the earth explodes into multiple pieces and out of coincidence it looks like a beatmap with 20,000 circles in 2 seconds

It's when you don't take the time to search it before making a thread about it.

I stand corrected, thanks Aurani.

if you can't find anything constructive to respond with, don't respond at all. keep the shitposting to off-topic, thanks..
Basically this.

Overmapping is forcing a note to go in there, even if the beat won't match it

I think it's when you put objects (circles/sliders) at parts where the song doesn't deserve it.

The largest problem with Insane modes is the existence of overmapping. This is when the beats or placement of beats is placed in a way that makes the difficulty of the map contrast the actual song. This can be done by adding unneccesary jumps or slider speed-ups, or by mapping to an unknown beat in the music consistently, in order to add difficulty (ie. Adding notes on blue ticks when the song is only using red ticks)
there goes your proper definition of overmapping via osu!wiki

btw there's a wiki you should at least attempt to ask around w/o making a thread

Overmapping is not an issue. It's a mistake commonly done by new mappers. They only rely on the ticks rather than the music
