If anyone asks me if your Air Raid diff should be ranked, I will say yes, because THAT's how you separate the ETs from the earthlings. Want #1 rank to mean something? Let us rank shit like this. and ban multiacc/acc sharing players and hackers
It didn't hit me until the other day I was trying to explain how my rank didn't mean shit to my friend who doesn't play osu, i think the conversation sounded like,

"My rank is nothing, but you train to become ET, then once you reach a certain point on the leaderboards almost everyone gets 99-100% on every song, you just look at their youtube, LR2 page, or their score on Imperishable Night/Aiae to determine who's better"

There is OBVIOUSLY more to it than that, but if I had to sum it up in a sentence to someone who doesn't know what I'm talking about, that's what I say.

But you began the statement with "My rank is nothing" and then you start talking about a rank at the leaderboards? :V

No i mean my rank of like 3.3k is not good at all XDDDD

Edit:
I don't like to argue about the ET map thing simply because the whole argument is a big problem in the game development world.

Do you continue to make things harder to appeal to the hardcore gamers, or do you continue to make things more approachable for newcomers.

>Hardcore Raids in MMO's vs. new players not seeing the content
>Harder RTS mechanics vs. No new players attempting to learn the game anymore

You can see which route makes more money, and which route the console game world took. It's up to peppy, it's his game and I'm sure he is aware of the struggle, I.E the approved maps struggle in Osu!Standard.

I'd argue that in terms of ranked maps requiring spread, the new players will have approachable lower difficulties that they can play in order to help them integrate into the hardcore community (that would obviously be pleased by harder maps being ranked).

Now that I'm starting to play the denest ranked osu!mania maps, I'd love to see even further horizons in even more challenging ranked maps to continue the enjoyable process that is 'becoming et'

There is actually enough easy maps and easy maps are still gonna be ranked. One hard map can also be goal to new players.

Also, think about this, if you want to follow current spread rules, for a 12 star song that isn't a marathon, you'd need like 7-8 diffs to provide a full spread, unless the rules have changed since last I looked.

Wow. Da rules need a serious overhaul. Too bad O!M will probably stay a casual game forever.

These are the changes I meant when I said it was up to peppy. A long time ago he made approved maps that didn't require a full spread...everyone started mapping for approval instead of rank, and the community wasn't as stable back then, so rules were changed again.

Too bad I've never mapped before.

Same with me, but maybe we can collab together something shorter than that
and create mapset :) What about EZ NM HD diffs first.

Question: How many diffs are required for mapset getting ranked?

1 easy/normal, 1 hard/insane, if it's a marathon then it needs just 1 diff
