If you had a 2 minute song to map, how long would it take you? This is without adding hitsounds or going through modding. It is how long it take you to mod a map which is not modded and, if you add hitsounds after, without hitsounds. Try and say the different times for an easy, normal, hard and insane (extras if you map them)

I have a map that I'm still trying to finish from like 2010. Where's the several years option ?

It's "10 hours or more"

I don't feel like it really captures the whole "I've had this map going for 4 years and it's still not done" kinda thing

It usually takes 2 days for me to complete an Oni difficulty, but it takes only 1 hour to map from Kantan to Muzukashii. :3

Do you mean for funsies or do you mean "with the intention of getting it approved/ranked"?

Funsies: I can easily click repeatedly and call it a beatmap, so 2 minutes for a 2-minute song.

Actual intent: Months because I'm shit at mapping. I have a lot of maps that had promise but I just gave up on because I got REALLY BORED WITH IT.

I might start a different song just to try again.

I mean to rank, how long would it take you to map from beggining a map to submitting it?

Well it takes me about an hour per minute to map i delete and remap quite a lot this is with timing points.
No hit sounds but i usually write down around what minute i want my hit sounds louder and where i wanna make kiai time and after all that ill just throw in the 3 other different hit sounds to match the rhythm.
But those times only apply to when i want a map finished soon.
if i just map casually im talking with people on skype and watching some random game streams whilst mapping mapping like 30 sec per 1-2 hours

If I could map without stopping it would probably take about four hours per diff. But the thing is, by the time I've mapped for a few hours I usually get distracted and find another song that I want to map instead, so in actuality it would probably take at least half a year to finish a single map.

30 second takes about 1-2 hours with hit sound.

This only counts the worktime, right? If it is the distance from it started until it is done, then i would say a week to a month. If work time, then around 10-20 hours.

Yes, i made some maps but all of them are horribad and i didnt upload them.

I've mapped things in an hour, generally dumps or easy maps
I've had a map on stepmania take nearly 6 months to complete
