I like this. I think the color should be.. maybe, Lime, if it isn't used?Sirade wrote:
Would be nice, as long as it has something listed below.
- No userpage feature.
- No increased beatmap submission.
- No vote request.
- No skin-able main menu background.
- No change names.
- No access to early releases.
The reason of these no's?
Well, because birthday always last 24 hour, it is a bad idea to reward with these above which last for a long time.
- Colored name, which isn't bright yellow or any existing color, to differentiate from current supporters.
- Access to osu!direct.
- Ability to view specifics ranking.
- Automatic downloads when playing multiplayer, spectating others, or clicking links in chat. (likely not to be added)
Important things that needs to be aware of- Restrict the birthday editing (of course, it'll have to be decided by someone's who better than me), or else it'll be heavily abused.
Right? I searched the forums before posting this.. it was flooded with stuff like osu! greeting you happy birthday.Karuta- wrote:
I think there can be some conditions
like the person needs to have played osu! for more than one year
and without those features Sirade pointed out
Oddly, I don't think anyone has suggested this before
Honestly, I suggested this due to me getting no special reward or anything on all the games I play on my birthday (June 26abraker wrote:
Wow never even expected something like this! In addition to the conditions made by the others, the birthday date should be locked after 1 time putting it in. Have a note saying that this is the user's final choice before accepting it. Besides that, I expect a lot of supporter tags mysteriously show up on 1/1 since that's most people lie to (which isn't a bad celebration for New Year).
This is also a neat teaser/demo for non supporters XD

It was just for topic title's sake. Feel free to think up of another nameSirade wrote:
I don't think the name should be "Birthday Supporter" since they didn't support, so it really doesn't make sense.
I just don't know a perfect name for this, can someone perhaps help suggest a good name?
Or... Is it good as it is?

I'm not really into this idea. Like you can just set you can just reset your birthday anytime to "cheat" for a supporter tag or extension. Sure, it could work like it only gives supporter once per year no matter how much you change it but it's kind if impractical imo.

One of the limits would be you could only set your birthday ONCE in your entire osu! life.. or maybe show some kind of age verification like birth certificate? maybe? ._.
Hey, some extreme people could get a "free" 24 hour membership, since peoples have no moniez. Like me..Fr33z3R wrote:

It's not that easy for everyone to just post or submit their birth certificate just because of a membership for 24 hours. :/
This game isn't a charity project so yeah.Muzika wrote:

I'll probably stop at this point to not make this thread feel bad
What I mean by "extreme" are people who are crazy enough to post a picture of their birth certificate and send it to peppy, or someone. :pbaraatje123 wrote:
Well
Most 'extreme' players get gifted supporter a lot
I would not be durprised if Hvick has supporter for the rest of his life
And next life
And the life afterwards
Yeah, some people (like me) sometimes give supporter to friends, or to players they admire
24 hours is one day, right?XinCrin wrote:
Nice idea, the user could get osu!direct for one day only imo
Maybe not every birthday, then. Just ONCE in their entire osu! lifetime.Sirade wrote:
Probably the best way is to...
Lock changing birthday date once their birthday date has passed.
This feature would be a nice supporter demo for non-supporters.
That one day I will be away celebrating irlMuzika wrote:

lol, plz, i don't think they'll play osu for their entire day, many would celebrate irl like abraker said.Muzika wrote:

Is that good? no one gets mad or anything?
I think then it would lose its meaning. To pick a random date to receive a supporter just feels like a give-away.Niroe wrote:
Or u can change the date of ur birthday at any times, but after the day of supporter is used, u will to need to wait 365 days MINIMAL for having again the birthday gift
Just i dont see the utility to change your birthday date, just wait more after the 365 days ? I think thats make the abuse impossibleabraker wrote:

In that sense, supporters are having SUPER-BIRTHDAYS everyday. Being "Supporter" with all those features not given to regular Birthday users is in itself a great gift.baraatje123 wrote:
Well
What about current supporter?
It feels a shame that non-supporters get a gift, while supporters don't
They get +1 day more of supporter tag?baraatje123 wrote:

Well, I do play osu! on my birthday, many would do but not for entire day, maybe around few hour or morning till afternoon.DDashiEE wrote:
You play osu, on your birthday?
wow.
such a nerd
btw
no, because why yes.
If you want supporter just buy IT.
This is also my major concern, but on the other hand, it's said it'll be to show non-sups what it's like to be supporter so they might buy it more sooner or something like thatPieInOblivion wrote:
Like the idea, but I think that actual supporters get a bit left out of this because they wouldn't be getting more features.
Cool idea though!
) will only go down in time while you're currently in-game? that's what makes it a bit more special than "regular" supporter.Or that. My idea above this post was kinda stupid and should've thought about yours.. :pbenguin wrote:
I noticed one of the issues is that some people would rather celebrate their birthday irl on the day of their birthday. I think a good compromise would be to make 24-hour Birthday Supporter (pls someone come up with a better name) something that you get on your birthday but you can activate it at your convenience.
So for example, my birthday is July 10th. So on July 10th, I'll obtain Birthday Supporter and I have the choice to activate it whenever. Maybe I'll be busy irl for birthday stuffs on July 10th and 11th, but I'll be free to play all day on the 12th. So on the 12th, I'd activate my Birthday Supporter and it'll start a 24-hour countdown. At the end of those 24-hours, Birthday Supporter disappears.
This makes a lot of sense.benguin wrote:

Not a bad thing, but I wonder who will be that person to not play osu! for 10 years and then log on to get 10 days of supporter.benguin wrote:

What about an expiry date? Like 3 months or something? Or a max amount of Birthday Supporter Tokens (Idea Alert)?abraker wrote:

Having an expiry date sounds good, but 3 months is way too long imo. I'd prefer something like a week so you're actually using it around the time of your birthday and not just waiting for a day you can be on 24 straight hours :p Would suck for someone who's away for an entire week around the time of their birthday but....meh, it's just one day of supporter anyway.PieInOblivion wrote:

I think for someone who gets an entire freakin week on holidays because its their birthday doesn't need 'FREE' Osu! Supporter. But some people do, so maybe if its your birthday, the next time you log on for more than 5min it auto activates?GhostFrog wrote:

I see what you mean when you say "Without Abuses".Stefan wrote:
With the current settings this feature is impossible to add without abuses. And the effort to change these things for such a little feature doesn't looks profitable to me. Not a bad idea but not that great to add in osu!.
There's still a way, I guess.PieInOblivion wrote:

Well then... Guess that's the end of that.

The only best way in my opinion.I wrote:
