[General]
[list][*]osz.file is tooooo big, A map without video shouldn't larger than 10M D:

1. The HP bar does not animate smoothly and looks sloppy. The actual bar goes over the design of the container.
2. Same goes for the follow circle, it animates too sloppily.
3. The score numbers are far too spaced out, and looks like this on a standard 800x600 screen. Note how the last 0 is under the HP bar.
4. imo, the hitcircle design is unnecessary
5. This is more of a personal gripe, but the combo burst is way too short. If you could make the demensions 388x767, that would be awesome. If you need to make it wider to scale it, thats fine, but the max is 500x width
6. There is no point to having a designed spinner-background like that. No one will even see it; all I see is a hand.

Hmm, after I updated this everything on all maps are COMPLETELY OFF.

If it's not only me, then I wonder how this can have so much priority. Will redwonload and see if it helps.. otherwise it's probably something wrong with the offset..

To be blunt, I honestly don't see what's so great about this map.

To me, aesthetics don't make a map. That's why I'm so mad about Bad Apple; James's map is far superior to the one with the PV, yet the one with the PV gets all the plays and likes just because it has a PV. SO WHAT. If you want the PV, go to youtube and watch it. If you want to play a beatmap, then go on Osu. James is an awesome beatmapper, yet he doesn't get as much credit for the sole reason that he didn't have the PV.

Same concept here. This map LOOKS great. The skin is pretty and the patterns of the notes look nice.

But in all honesty, the note placements and hitsounds are horrible. I'm sorry, but to me, excessive whistles give me a headache unless done properly. (like in James's Bad Apple)
The stacks are just impossible, frankly. And there are way too many of them.
There's too much of a difficulty jump between hard and lunatic; and in EoSD, the game from which this spawned, difference between hard and lunatic is not so significant.
The part starting at 1:46... really, I'm just disappointed. That's my favorite part of this song, yet it's done terribly. You just used the same clap patterns repetitively and the same note patterns as well. I can't believe you had 2:25-2:28 as a break. That's like... the crux of the song, that one moment of sheer chaos that every one of Demetori's songs has.
The same clap patterns were used for pretty much the entire song, really, and it gets boring having to follow the same pattern repetitively.
And the EXACT same note patterns were used in the choruses of the song. You just flipped them.

To sum it up; map looks awesome, but sounds and plays horribly. It reminds me of a Mac; it's shiny and looks nice but functions terribly.

Re-looking a this map, the timing seems off. I'm not a master timer, but the claps seem to come a bit late. Also, later in the song, there must be a 2/4 or 3/4 measure somewhere, as the metronome goes 1 full beat off.

After re-reading the thread, I've noticed that I probably have the old mp3, so the timing might be off. In that case, disregard my statements until I check this new mp3 out.

Also, just as a note:

osuplayer111 bubbled this map on the 30th of March. The new rule for "only 2 of any mode." was established on April 4th. Abalee, Remmy, MM, and osuplayer wouldn't have cared, because the rule was not put into place at the time they modded it.

Adding a note on the BAT stars thing, having 4 BAT stars doesn't mean anything. It means 4 BATs modded your map and liked it. It doesn't suddenly mean that nobody can find problems in it. My point is, ztrot pass over 4 bats, and say, "oh pop"

Also, I'm not neccesarily sure if maps that have a diff going for approval count towards the total limit of modes.This need more of one bubble

Plus, the diff spread is kind of wierd. EIII? I understand that one of the modes is supposed to be a hard mode, but it DOES seem kind of wierd. I'm not going to say anything more on this though, as I'm not really an expert on if a map should be ranked based on ranking spread.One of the dif is hard, no insane, If u play it u can notice that

CDFA wrote:

Having 4 BATs modding it and then having another BAT popping it doesn't really mean anything. It just means that ztrot noticed something the other 4 BATs might have missed or overlooked. I talk to other people about this, and they say "a unclear post like always", I can't see a reason for make a pop in this song.

Notes: The spacing could have been fixed up a bit better. Its like it was manually snapped then wasn't. Also, try adding some more creativity to this difficulty.

00:29:517 (2,3) - Could have been lined up better.

01:52:392 (1) - This note is just..... there. Look into making better use of the beats.
01:58:954 - This would be too early for a break. There was just a note and two spinners.....
02:13:392 (6,1) - Too close together.

02:52:673 (1,2,3,4,5,6,1) - What is up with this stack? The notes don't flow evenly and is really hard to read set like this. Try doing something more creative like jumps (not TOO far apart).
02:54:642 (2,6) - If you take (2) and flip it horizantally, you can see it fails to line up right into (6). Make sure your shapes are even.
02:55:392 (4,1) - (Similar issue as above ^)
02:59:892 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - Broken spacing. Make sure it is even.

Notes: WAY TOO MUCH slider use. If the map is to be a real "hard", try to use more notes and less sliders. Also, please look into adjusting combo color #4. Its a bit too dark and blends with the current background some.

00:28:767 - Why does the map start here and the others start earlier?

Notes: Honestly, this difficulty is lacking some creativity. There are copy & pasted sections that could have been worked over some. Try to be more creative and use the sliders less for harder difficulties. Also, the hitsound use would need some work as well (like the claps at the start for example. It stands out too much in the song and is used too much).

00:36:267 (1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2) - Looks like a copy, paste, and flip with broken spacing...
01:22:767 ~ 02:25:017 - This speed up section is really screwy. Especially with the current use of the sliders and the copy and pasted sections. Just about the point its overmapped. Also, the end of the speed up section is missing the slow down warning.
02:17:517 (1,2,3) - Can't see the notes on this stack. The slider is in the way.

Notes: This difficulty is overdone and is lacking in some creativity. Notes are being forced into place, plenty of copy and pasted notes, broken spacing, and the speed up sections need some work.

Overall: The map could still use some work before being bubbled again honestly. Try to use more patterns and less sliders while trying to organize the spacing. Also, the spinner-approachcircle.png looks quite odd. It looks more like a ring cut out of a BG image than a neatly done skin object. Lost the rest I was going to say due to the power surge, but this should just about sum it up.
