Oh wow, it's THAT time of the year again. OWC 2013 was amazing, OWC 2014... not so much. I can't wait to see what this year's edition has in store for us!

I don't get why people are confused about the change to the scoring system, it is probably the most requested thing relating to OWC.

Hm. Skystar choosing the mappools. This will be interesting >:D

While I do understand the change and agree that this will definitely be an improvement to the viewing experience, I don't like it at all. The reason scoring is very combo heavy is because the hardest aspect of the game is supposed to get rewarded the most. For example, in osu!mania combo doesn't do anything at all because you could literally just spam all your buttons and still keep combo, while not paying ANY attention to rhythm, while in standard reading might as well be the single most important skill in the game. I do understand that a "random miss" on a map you performed extremely well on can ruin the whole score, but being able to stay focused while playing is IMO the most difficult aspect of the game.

Then again, I might be biased since my own playstyle and the way I read sacrifices accuracy in order to maintain stable aim and combo. And also they haven't released any specific information on how scoring will work yet, so it might not be as tremendous as I am anticipating it.

You should wait until we actually release how the scoring works before you make assumptions about it.

Would be nice to know that before signing up to a tournament though, you know :P

it's still in heavy testing, hence why I gave you a rough tendency where it will go. I am sorry that we were unable to deliver concrete details sooner.

For now it's probably still okay. It sucks, so it's something that hopefully doesn't happen next year (since last owc we also had the problem of not knowing some things in advance, which resulted in everything being blown out of proportions last year too). The best would be if you could get these things finalized before the registrations end though. Those who register should be able to expect the rules to be what they register for, so yeah.

Anyhow, good luck with testing and finalizing these things~
