You're a retard. Stop overinflating star rankings.

Of course anyone who reads this post probably isn't among the people voting 10 on everything.

I vote 10 on nice things

I want to vote 1 on almost all the anime songs but I usually won't vote at all

I don't vote on anything, except in extremely rare cases.

I only rate if I see something has a really low rating. Then I rate it a 1.

So basically you're telling me your evaluation skills are only capable of voting 10 which is good and 1 which is bad.
Mukku
So what the fuck?

You rate based on the maps rating of that time? Thats retarded if something is.


@luke no. I vote 10 on nice things. I vote 5-9 on other stuff

I'd also like to add that I haven't even voted on most of the maps in my favorites.

This map has been deleted on the request of its creator. It is no longer available.

I honestly agree with this. Not every map deserves a 10, and I reserve 10 ratings for maps I throw into my favourites. Hell, some of my favourites, I only rated maybe an 8 or 9, too, considering the fact that while I love it, it's not perfect.

I hardly ever vote 10 on anything - in fact, my voting system is pretty strange. All maps have a 10 at the start, but as I play them I deduct points for things I dislike or add points for things I like. For example, having less than 4 difficulties made by the map's author means -1 point (a bit nazi, I know, and yes I know not everyone has all time in the world but damn things having four difficulties is a rule of the universe), being too boring, having a broken rhythm or annoying hitcircle placement/overall inconsistency are more -1 and etc; having an awesome storyboard usually means +1 (or more if they're really awesome, like in Don't Stop Me Now) and so on. But who cares about how I vote on stuff.
Sometimes become a normal person and vote as I should based on the amount of fun I had and the amount of flaws I noticed, but that takes too long to analyze. I guess.

I find these people who give 10 to all maps and to stuff I dislike really silly, but well... this is how the world works - opinions and opinions.

O yes please, I'll have like 5-7 or so I think xD
I'm a bad-ass with ratings.

I voted 1 on maps which I missed like one of the last notes because of some ugly pattern which comes out of no where, even though the map is just fine or even good. I also vote 10's in very rare cases (like Don't Stop Me Now and Dutch player maps~) and usually I vote 8's or 7's.
SilentWings_old
I vote 1s to help deflate the overinflated maps.

I'm a true hero.

(I do vote 10-8 on the maps I really like though)
An64fan
Usually I vote 7s or 8s. Maps have to be exceptional to get 9s. I almost never give 10s. To earn a 10 from me, the flow and play of the map has to be flawless. So me voting 10 is an unusual occurrence.

I don't vote on every map though. There are tons of maps that I should vote on, but never do. I usually want to play as many maps in a set as I can before voting on it. But by that time, I've either hit a difficulty I can't beat, rush through the ranking screen, or just plain forget at the time, and then really don't want to go play through the map again just to vote on it.

I vote 10 or 1.

Nothing else.

i vote in extremely rarecases. but if i find the map a junk, i vote it 6. :P
Vanmonky
I always vote 10-8 for every map, even if I hate the map.
Jinxy
I use 10 if I enjoyed the map and it had a good flow. Unfortunately I don't have that many favorite slots.
9 if there was a small thing that felt off.
4 if something tripped me up.
1 if I think the map was trippy AND overvoted

But when i vote i probably with the same reasoning like An64fan.

Those that vote 10s and 1s at a standard basis are stupid
Gabi
oh blablabla who the fuck cares about rating. it's not even accurate the slightest bit.

10 = "map/song was good."
1 = "i couldn't fc the song"

that is basicly how it is for most people, deal with it.

we all don't go by anyones standard to vote less then 10 just because it isn't on our favorite.

for me, well i usually don't vote mainly because i hardly ever play ranked maps, and once i pass them i usually forgett to vote and click away the voting screen too fast by habbit. Unless the map really strikes me as awesome and fun, i usually forgett to vote.

That's really sad but it's true >:(

I vote on every beatmap i play. But before i vote i play each difficulty at least few times. Then i think about good sides, bad sides, put them together, and give a vote. I use every rates (1-10). I like to rate beatmaps. Anyway, at the moment, there is no beatmap i voted "1", and two beatmaps i voted "10".
In my opinion: When You want tot vote. Think about it, and try to do it correctly.

deal with it.
Since you don't seem to get the slightest idea of why someone would give a bad rating if the song is bad:

Crappy song -> Headache -> Unability to follow the rythm/beat -> Fuck this shit I'm giving it a 1.

If you STILL don't understand I'll make a flowchart later. Nvm I can't be bothered.
Mystearica
fc = 10
mapper is your friend = 10
sb gives a headache = 1
kiai making you blind = 1
hate the mapper = 1
don't like the song = 1
dumb mistake didn't fc and rage = 1

feel free to flame what i'm saying but this is the pattern really.

basically what gabi and shaggon said. ratings aren't accurate and there's no point really, you can just gather up a bunch of people and spam 1s on someone's map anyway, i've been the target of such movements 4 times myself and i'm sure others have experienced similar. the rating system represents nothing which also goes to show why mapper ranking is a joke. it's all bonus based on the number of ranked maps you have unfortunately.

every map that goes up now is almost guaranteed a 9 because people give 10 so easily, see the old maps are all around 8.2 - 8.5.

if you take away all of the bonus james has based on all of his ranked maps, he's only 8.5 or so, is he still truly one of the best mappers? yes.

go ahead and flame me all you want, just direct what you have to say to me and not everyone else that shares my opinion, i don't care if you want to flame me. my bottom line? i don't vote anymore, and i think that's fair enough.

Yes? what is your point?

Unfortuanetley every osu! player doesn't share that thought, so they get mad if they have their map voted one. This leaves them insecure if their map is good or not.

Good, so you proved my point on how retarded people can be when they vote. Try re-reading my first post and you might understand a little more. It's not just about the song, if you want to rate just a song go on youtube and go rate them there. You are rating a map here, not just a song.

How would you feel if you picked a song that 90% of the community voted 1 on just because they didn't like it? yet you had put so much effort into your map and everything.

I can't really bother to explain more to you right now, seems like you just joined the community and you don't seem to get any of the things i say. If you still don't understand (you probably won't) feel free to send me a pm and i can make it even more clear to you.
MegaManEXE
For me it goes like this, in order of priority:

1=
Bad map
Map with retarded spacing (this means authentic maps, and yes I 1'd Don't Stop Me Now, what are you going to do about it)
Ugly map
Boring map
Shitty song
Hate the mapper
Bad bg+kiai+combo colors, meaning I can't see shit
Shitty skin

10=
Map I made a difficulty for
Friend's map
Fun map (usually if it has streams I'll give it a 10)
Interesting patterns
Nice song

I'm not one of those people who 1s a map because I can't fc, I like a lot of hard maps and I've 10'd many that I can't play the hardest diff on just because I can tell when the mapper put some god damn effort into arranging and making it look and play nice even if it's hard.

And I usually don't influence my vote based on a storyboard or bg video; I'm here to play a game, not watch shit flying around in the background (since I know 95% of the people who voted 10 on Bad Apple voted it because they like the shadow art video, there's no way that many people could think that map is good at all).
Glass
@Gabi:

You think I don't get anything you say because I just joined the community?(lolwat)

Your point is people deserve to get rated more depended on their maps instead of both the maps and song, my point is no matter how hard you try to map a bad song, the effort you put into the map will still be overshadowed by the quality of the song you chose. You make a map based on the song, so how exactly are you going to get a good map from a bad song? Moreover, how do you expect people to enjoy a map if the song itself sounds like crap, playing with sound off? Seriously.

The songs don't matter, you say? As far I'm concerned, Osu! is a music/rythm game. So good luck getting a coherent series of circles based on a song that sounds like utterly jackshit. You like the simplicity of clicking circles? Go play wack-a-mole.

Also, I clearly said I would only give 10-8 if I liked both the map and song, so don't assume that I would easily hand out 10's just because the song is good.

And you might wanna get a little more clue next time you choose to argue with someone just because they're "new to the community".

PS: Don't even bother PMing me about this because I have better things to do than trying to get this through your thick skull.

itt: we are all honest and open about why we're terrible at voting

10 = Even if this map isn't perfect, it's so close I don't really care
9 = It's fantastic, but trails behind the best
8 = good, no obvious flaws
7 = good, no obvious flaws, but christ the song is bland
6 = this map is unimaginitive
5 = this map is pretty terrible
4 = N/A
3 = N/A
2 = N/A
1 = not sure, don't know if I've ever voted a 1 on anything; a 1 means it's horrid and whoever ranked/bubbled it should be kicked out of the BAT/MAT because it is among the lowest of quality


Not all maps I voted 10 on are in my favourites, and not all of my favourites I've voted 10 on. But I'm pretty sure, for every map I've voted a 10, LH has played at least some small part in it. Except for that StH Pirate Island map, afaik he had no role in that and I think I gave that a ten.


imo voting a 10 or 1 on a map for reasons totally unrelated to the map (such as the mapper's country of origin, or your relationship with the mapper) makes you an absolute tool

Ratings are supposed to be an indicator of which maps are good. I mean, that's clearly not the case, and we've fucked the ratings so far up the ass that they'll never be able to settle down again, but that was the intention behind ratings originally.
Gabi
Alright Glasslake, i see that you aren't even bothering to properly read my posts, or you are just being plain stupid.

Your point is people deserve to get rated more depended on their maps instead of both the maps and song
My point has always been that people should rate on both the maps and song.

No where in my post did i imply that a song doesn't matter. I am trying to tell you that people who vote just for the song (or for reasons like not being able to fc) are those kinds of people who ruin this system.

You make a map based on the song, so how exactly are you going to get a good map from a bad song?
Are you joking with me? Tell me what a bad song is. To you it seems like a bad map is a vocaloid map. one of the best maps in this game is actually a vocaloid map mapped by Al-Azif. There is no way that his map should get rated 1 just because you don't like the song. Basicly your point is stupid.

You are new to the community, so i doubt you have read any of the threads concerning the rating system.

Again you didn't read my post, i never wanted to pm you. Please read it again and see what i said.

Now that you're getting on my nerves and started personal attacks,

Do you even know what the fuck you're talking about?

THIS, is my point. Yet you evaded it completely and went on how did I mistaken your opinion on how rating should be done(Do I even give a shit about how you rate songs?). You quoted my first post saying it's a retarded way of rating, I refuted it, and you ignored my response, good job. You're saying my point is stupid? So basically you're telling everybody to endure a shitty song just to play through en entire map and give it a rating the map deserves.

And no I never played that map Al-Azif made and it's probably the only good one like you said, but do I have to play every single one of those vocaloid shits to say that most of them are utter junk? So far all of those I played sounded like utterly shit so I'm not even gonna bother wasting anymore of my time trying those out.

I didn't read those threads about the rating system and I don't care, I'll continue rating songs based on my own criterias.

Apparently I didn't read your atrocious post yet I refuted every point of yours. Makes total sense.

Also, I told you not to PM me not because you wanted to, it's more of a precaution so you don't flood me my mailbox, once again, fucking obvious? And unlike you, I don't need to read a post x times to get the damn point, so telling me to re-read your shit over and over won't change anything.

GOD, STOP WITH THAT

90% of the community actually rate 10 if it's animu/touhou/vocaloid and 1 if it's not. THAT'S THE TRUTH, AND NOTHING WILL CHANGE THAT.

And no, I don't rate like that.

I think I should vote more 10s to do something against all those 1 voters (ノ゚ω゚)ノ
[/irony]

Seriously, rating the song only (and really only the song) is totally the wrong way, if you want to do that, exit osu and find a youtube video that features the song and downrate the SONG. This is a game where the rating is directed to more than just a song, you are supposed to rate the map as a whole, and especially the work of the mapper.

My rating is a bit similar to awp's. The lowest rating im giving is ~6 since that's the border of ranking criteria to me. Usually rankable maps are somewhere between 7 and 9, now add a 1 and a 10 to it... you see, there is a much bigger problem with 1s than with 10s.

eee
I vote 6-10 on most maps
6 is the worst
7 is slightly better
8 is just a regular map, no flaws, no awesome (my rating for most maps)
9 is very fun
10 is awesome (there are tons of awesome maps, I'm not gonna put ALL of them in my favorites)

Edit: awp kinda states it better, I agree with him (and 0_o)
Ephemeral
Songs and beatmaps share a symbiotic relationship.

If one is lacking, the other will suffer also.

It is then only natural that they should be rated assuming they are a cohesive unit. Normally, this is how most people do things. Good songs save bad beatmaps and good beatmaps save bad songs.

This may rattle you, but rating is somewhat accurate of a map's intrinsic worth, if you like.
Breeze
I never vote 1, always 7,8,9
If the map is really awesome, I might vote 10
But I would only favorite the map which I like both the song and map
yeahyeahyeahhh
10 - Map that goes in my favorites or would if I had space (I've only gave out a handful of these). Usually given out to maps I can tell too EFFORT to make. Ya know, hitsounds, inherited timing sections, patterns and such. Any idiots can throw down a clap/whistle pattern and throw notes in circle around the map with the sliders and no-sense jumps.

Usually give out 6-7's based on how I like the map/how it made.

1 - If its a shitty skin (idgaf if I can delete it), poor use of colors (white hitcircles on white background wtf), or kiai on light colors (fuck you).


All honesty I don't rate to often and don't really care about it. If your map is a 10 and your mind thats all you should need.
Zekira
oh blablabla who the fuck cares about rating. it's not even accurate the slightest bit.

10 = "map/song was good."
1 = "i couldn't fc the song"

I still find it funny that I tend to vote very low on songs I actually like because I felt the map could have been much better.

I download songs, and delete any I don't like. All the songs I have downloaded I would count as a "favourites" list, because I don't keep anything else.
