Red: Important. You should pay attention if its red.
Green: Guidelines: Tells you what you can expect from me. Don't necessarily have to read more than the green text
Blue: Indicates recent changes I made to existing rules or guidelines.
Black: Related information to rules and guidelines. You don't have to read any further than the colored text, but fully reading the rules is highly suggested. There are many perks to be found within the black text.
NOTE: I will be modding at my own pace. At a later time I might guarantee a set date for me to mod your map.
Rules:
1. Only 1 song per post per update. Only under special circumstances will I permit a double mod. If I see more than one and there is no indication which one is more requested, I will choose either by personal preference or by Star priority
2. Only 3 people may post requests at a time under normal circumstances. Your mod request will be ignored until I get bored enough to mod it if you post beyond that maximum. (Trust me it is better to resubmit it when I am finished with the previous mods)
3. Do not post if I have not posted an update in 5 or more days. I will try my best to keep the queue up to date with my progress if I'm falling behind. A prolonged period without an update is a red flag that I'm not available to mod. You must have a VERY good reason for me to make an exclusion to this rule.
4. Songs must be labeled(name of song + artist, preferably with SP attached and a statement whether it's a WIP or a pending beatmap. Other information such as if it is a Marathon or going for approval is appreciated as well.) Any posts failing to meet this requirement will be delayed until next round and placed last in priority for that set.

(If it's a WIP state WIP, you don't need to state that your map is in pending.)
5. Rudeness will not be tolerated. I am not obligated to tend to your map. Anyone found to violate this rule will be barred from submitting another request for two weeks and their current request; if I have not tended to it ignored until that period is over or they give me a very sincere apology. Those who are so lucky to violate this rule will get put in my ban list until that period is up. This rule counts for guest difficulty posts too!!
6. Refusal to kudosu me without a good reason will be grounds for me to ignore any future requests until it is worked out. I have the right to know why I did not receive kudosu.
7. No circumventing the rules. I am all too willing to discuss matters through in game PM chat. Don't clutter my queue with nonsense or you'll find yourself permanently on the banlist.
Guidelines:
0. Mod 4 mods are appreciated. See Guideline 6d. for more details
1. I will accept any song at any star priority level (including WIPs) However keep in mind that I am a very opinionated person and will treat your WIP as any other map and mod accordingly.
2. I will post telling when 3 more mods can be posted. Make sure you look for my post!!!
3. I will nazi mod your map. It's part of my technique. (I will not include nazi changes on a bubbled map unless I find at least one issue that I believe should really be fixed.)
4. I don't mod taikos and wont take timing requests unless you are absolutely confident it is a single BPM and that BPM is nearly right. Best not to ask me for timing help. I'm not very good at it.
5. It might be a few days before I can get back to you with a mod post. Often I am busy or tired and have to put off mapping. school will be starting soon as well. Just be patient. Most requests will be made within 2 days.
6. My Priority System NEW!
8. I am not responsible for any damage I do to your map through a suggestion. All suggestions if you choose to try them out should be tested. It is your responsibility to determine whether a change that I suggested makes your beatmap better. Don't assume that I know best, because I make mistakes every now and then too. (If I have a screenshot and/or a long detailed explanation, then that means I really want you to use that suggestion and have tested it myself several times. Most of the time those suggestions should not be ignored.)
And the insanity starts NOW!!!!

6. My Priority System NEW!
SPOILER
7. I will allow up to 2 more people to post after the maximum 3 have been posted if they have posted a mod to one of my maps (A.K.A mod 4 mod) and they have 10 or more kudosu. Mod 4 mods requested through in game chat or PM excluded. (That type of mod request priority will be determined on a mod to mod basis.)a. WIPs will be given lower priority than pending maps unless I really know the person or the WIP is 70 seconds or less and properly timed.
b. Marathon maps/ 5 star only sets will be given lower priority to other pending maps, but not lower than WIPs (unless the maps are WIPs.) Approval maps will also receive lower priority than other pending maps, but will be given higher priority than the types mentioned above unless the length of the longest beatmap exceeds 4:30; in such a case priority is the same. Beatmap sets that contain mostly 5 star maps (excluding mode specific difficulties) may be given lower priority to other pending maps.
You should probably know that I'm not good at modding difficult maps.
(New)
b2. Mapsets that have 5 or more difficulties (excluding mode specific) will be given lower priority if the song length exceeds 2 minutes. Sets that contain 4 difficulties may receive lower priority if the mapped song length exceeds 2:30. These types of songs take a long time to mod and they tend to burn me out. (WIPs with 5 or more difficulties over 80 seconds will be given lowest priority compared to all other WIPs except those that include 4 difficulties in combination with any condition mentioned above (given that the 5+ difficulty WIP does not meet ANY of those conditions.)
c. BATs come first (Not that one will ever request a mod in this queue anyways)
d. Mod 4 mod clause: Those who mod one of my maps (look in signature) will receive high priority. In the case of multiple mods, I will mod the map of the person who posted first. Length, status, or difficulty will not affect priority of a mod 4 mod post.Warning: Do not abuse this clause. If I feel you didn't make an effort to mod my map and just handed me a free star, I will give your map lowest priority.
e. If you mod post through mod reqs, or a mod queue that I posted my map on and either contact me directly or post in this thread a request within 4 days, I will consider it a mod 4 mod and your request will receive high priority.
b. Marathon maps/ 5 star only sets will be given lower priority to other pending maps, but not lower than WIPs (unless the maps are WIPs.) Approval maps will also receive lower priority than other pending maps, but will be given higher priority than the types mentioned above unless the length of the longest beatmap exceeds 4:30; in such a case priority is the same.
