BPM is too fast, you should change the it from 140.02 to 140, and then resnap all notes and timing sections. Though I'm not sure about the very first bpm you have there.

00:50:236 (3,4,1,2,3) - I don't like how these notes overlap eachother, doesn't look very pretty and it isn't very comfortable to play either. Try to come up with something else?

I think you should use your new combos more like in a way that fits the music and not only the patterns. But anyways, these are just my opinions, feel free to ignore.

Some suggestions taken, too much :effort: to point out exactly which ones. I don't entirely agree on the new combo thing, but do admit that some of the 3-note combos could be extended/changed.
Weez
Don't have the attention snap to mod the whole song >.< but I do like it :D

General: For the skin, it's hard to see the numbers on the beats

01:21:737 (8,9): Aling it with (7) looks better to me
01:24:737 (6): This slider isn't the same as the next 2, align them up
01:39:949 (1): move this to 1:40:163
01:50:019: Add a break
01:53:876: ^
05:17:204 (1): remove and put a spinner?

General: For the skin, it's hard to see the numbers on the beats I'm working on fixing this, it's a known skin issue.

01:21:737 (8,9): Aling it with (7) looks better to me. I like it the way it is~
01:24:737 (6): This slider isn't the same as the next 2, align them up Done.
01:39:949 (1): move this to 1:40:163 This is an intended pattern.
01:50:019: Add a breakI'll debate doing this. I think part of the difficulty comes with the fact that there are these "draining" moments where you can't keep your HP up and you can see your doom coming at you if you don't do well enough previously. For now, there's breaks whenever this pattern comes up.
01:53:876: ^^
05:17:204 (1): remove and put a spinner?I'd really like to keep away from spinners, sorry. Besides, to keep with the pattern I'd need to put more than 1 spinner over the course of the map...

-Did you intend to have all the selections mods in the folder and why? Would also be nice if 300g 300k etc looked different from each other more but ok
-I agree make 2nd bpm 140.000 and I get around 13,793 approx for the offset (not sure how close first timing section is
-If you have a section fail include a section pass - even though no breaks use it at the moment
-Do you need star in folder? It's the same as the default one and just effects the stars outside the map
-Don't have 3 osb files in folder (1 is allowed) Seems because of name change
-You don't need 07th expansion in tags as its in the artist
-Why no 50 in "hit50"?
-Remove countdown

Bernkastel's Marathon:
-I don't follow combos some of the time but not in the mood for a combo mod atm~
-I am guessing you know you have to add alot more hitsounds
-If this is going to be the hardest difficulty going for approval you are going to need to make it slightly more interesting in my opinion. I never thought I would say it but might be nice if you added some more jumps where they fit/ more streams/ some more pattens etc.
-Resnap all notes (check AIMod)
02:15:087 (1) - I would change the shape of this it could be confusing the first time playing
02:44:648 (1,2,1,2) - watch your spacing on stuff like this

The map isn't bad but it sticks to distance snap too much at the moment, you could make it much more exciting during kiai especially with this type of song.

Needs to become more active before I can star this sorry~

-Do you need star in folder? It's the same as the default one and just effects the stars outside the map Mistake; my bad. Removing.
-Don't have 3 osb files in folder (1 is allowed) Seems because of name change Right. Done.
-You don't need 07th expansion in tags as its in the artist Forgot to remove them when I switched the artist from zts to 07th.
-Why no 50 in "hit50"? Because.
-Remove countdown Done.

-I am guessing you know you have to add alot more hitsounds These are in progress.
-If this is going to be the hardest difficulty going for approval you are going to need to make it slightly more interesting in my opinion. I never thought I would say it but might be nice if you added some more jumps where they fit/ more streams/ some more pattens etc. I was trying to avoid it, but I can certainly ramp up the difficulty. The plan is to have 3 regular difficulties (Normal/Hard/Insane) as rankables, this being the only approved one.
-Resnap all notes (check AIMod)
02:15:087 (1) - I would change the shape of this it could be confusing the first time playing I'm leaving this. It looks nice and is shaped in such a way that I think it's obvious it's not going to be a fast slider.
02:44:648 (1,2,1,2) - watch your spacing on stuff like this Ack, totally forgot about that bit. Them's the downsides of a 7 minute map, checking the whole thing is a bitch.

The map isn't bad but it sticks to distance snap too much at the moment, you could make it much more exciting during kiai especially with this type of song. Once again; I'll ramp up the difficulty of things during kiai.

Needs to become more active before I can star this sorry~

I'll probably spice up the sliderspam that occurs throughout the song to include jumps and bounces for more excitement.

Streams I'm a bit wary of.

Not really a mod, so give kudosu as you will.

[Bernkastel's Marathon]

This is the only difficulty i've played so far by request, and the offset is definitely wrong. I haven't found a good offset quite yet, but it needs to be decreased just a little. [didn't count the first 14 seconds with the different offset, sounded fine to me].

However, fabulous map, so star.

Witnessed the map's birth. I can say at least two difficulties in it deserve a star:D


So a star.

Episode 5:
00:20:650 (1) - I don't think this is very well as 2.0... keep as 1.0?
00:59:863 (5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18) - Space these a bit better? Theyre really clustered when playing.
01:23:434 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12) - ^ Same, looks like 1 big stream with dumb spacing instead of 3 seperate stacks
01:39:721 - Keep as 1.0 here?
01:47:007 - Remove this break.
02:17:221 - Put the kiai timing here, it doesnt start on the measure as it should (or?)
02:46:364 (3,4,5,6,7) - Wouldn't do this, its practically unreadable imo.
02:56:650 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,1,2,3,4,5,6,1,2,3,4,1) - All i have to say is wtf lol. I'd redo this somehow. And dont rape me with claps D:

other stuff was technically fine. Though, could do some rework in terms of patterns or slider. Some of the sliders seem half-done, they could look nicer imo. Also, your combos seems kinda random, IDK if you want to look at them a bit more, but combo moding is gay so ill leave you to that.

The sliders are generally straight for a reason; but then again there's some nicer looking sliders in there as well.

I've almost given up on combo modding since I've redone it three times now and it's just ended up looking completely random.

- General: (Considerations and things you need to check/fix for the whole map)
  • There are the unused mod-selection buttons from the skin, please remove them.
    The images you used for the BG have different resolution, i think it's better for you to use the same for them all (and to recompress them to JPG because some are over 1MB and that's a waste)

    01:22:364 (1,2,3) - really inconsistent spacing for such a "regular" map.
    01:44:650 (3,4,5,6,7) - the stack here looks ugly while playing, move them down-right a bit?

Let's say this needs some "Manteinance" but it's a good work.
Consider this starred after fixes are applied (especially those about unused elements/uncompressed BGs)

Did some IRC suggestions from a certain nameless person as well. Doublepost, GO!

Delete selection mods in folder (I thought you already did but maybe forgot?)
All the maps could use some more hitsounds in my opinion, add some claps or something?
Do you need both JPEG and PNG version of bg in folder?
Remove audio lead-in? (for the ranked ones)

Episode 1:
Don't follow new combos some of the time...will do quick modding of it but not much (mostly up to you)
I would prefer a lower slider velovity for the easiest difficulty
00:27:935 (2) - new combo
01:00:935 (1,2) - all of the combos around here would look better starting on the first beat of the measure (big white tick) - same for almost all the map
01:29:650 (4) - would sound alot better if the repeat was on 01:30:935 (then you could add a note after the slider)

Episode 3:
(combo's would still work better focusing around main beat of the song)
00:51:293 (5) - add note?
01:26:650 (1,2,3) - spacing

Episode 5:
I like the hitsounds at the start, make the rest of the map have stuff like that~
Resnap all notes (check AIMod)
HP -1? It's pretty hard as it is
01:01:578 (1,2,3,4) - spacing
01:08:864 (4,1) - bad anti jump
01:09:507 (1,2,3,4,5) - spacing
01:14:435 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - ^
01:23:221 (7,8,9,10,11,1,2,3,4) - ^
01:32:650 (1,2,3) - keep spacing equal
02:29:864 (4,5,6,7,8,9) - ^
I don't mind the jumps (well I do but they can stay) but keep spacing consistent in general. Go through and double check some stuff (I expect I didn't list them all)

You basically know my opinions on the marathon so :D

Episode 5:

Resnap all notes (check AIMod) Fuck you, BSS. Fuck you. You make my maps have the strangest bugs...

The map is very enjoyable, I was going to get my brother to test easy to see if it was playable for a newb but well...he's my brother. It is a great map, personally I think the drain on the marathon is a bit large but again, that's personal opinion.
So here is a star.

[Episode 1]
00:40:364 (3,4) - Perhaps you could break the spacing rule once to get this symmetrical?
01:29:650 (4) - ^

[Bernkastel's Marathon]
01:35:221 (9) - Not symmetrical :(
01:35:221 (9) - try to place in middle? :D
02:15:078 (1) - Not really nice looking and it COULD be unrankable.
03:18:292 (3,4,5,6,7) - Move one pixel to the right? :P

02:15:078 (1) - Not really nice looking and it COULD be unrankable. It isn't rankable. It's approvable; though. I've talked with several bats and they agreed once I argued my point - even if you can't tell which way to go, it doesn't matter since the circle will still cover your mouse if you go straight up, and it's slow enough that someone who remembers this very unique slider (Say, someone who would be doing this difficulty with hard rock - EXTREMELY UNRECOMMENDED) would pass it with ease.
03:18:292 (3,4,5,6,7) - Move one pixel to the right? :P Done.

SB:

Mind telling me what are the exact reasons for using both versions of bg?
The effects are not exactly on time. You should consider fixing it. Also try split the loop in 2. Seeing at the number of loops it have and depending on the timing, they could add up making the effects go off by 40 ms, and thats quite a lot. :T
Oh and also consider doing a fade in of the purple crystals. Seeing them appearing so drastically doesn't look so pretty.

I really fail to see what the hell is bg.png is doing in the sb. Only moving a 2-5 pixels every once in a while, it's not like everybody is going to notice it.

Also seeing as the sb is the same in all your difficulties, why not add the sb to the .osb file instead of each difficulty?

You're not using the following file:
crystalsColorblue.png
crystals.png

You should consider deleting them.

Remember that any changes to .osb file and files deletion requires a full submit. So if youre following my suggestions remember to do a full submit.

Episode 5:

01:32:650 (1,2) - What the hell with them. At least shorten 01:32:650 (1,2) - so it ends at 01:33:078 -
02:46:364 (3,4) - Probably unrankable? But if after all these mods nobody said anything about them, then i guess its alright.

Episode 3:

00:51:507 - Consider adding a circle here, and then start the spinner later.
00:51:721 (1) - Hmm, consider ending the spinner at 00:54:507, and then add a circle at 00:54:721 -

Episode 1:

Found nothing

Marathon:

01:34:685 - Consider adding a circle here?
01:35:007 - Consider adding a circle here?
01:35:114 - Consider adding a circle here?
05:44:650 - Why not add a loop of purplecrystals here like in 02:17:221 ?

-------------------------------------------

Sighs to be honest, this map could have been so much better, and there's no easy fix for them case it will require pretty much a complete remap (and i'm not that kind of person of posting a long wall telling you exactly what to do in every object :T), and at this stage, it is not worth it, cause it would mean to find mods again.

Episode 3:

00:51:507 - Consider adding a circle here, and then start the spinner later. I shall consider it, since that circle wasn't there to begin with, was modded in.
00:51:721 (1) - Hmm, consider ending the spinner at 00:54:507, and then add a circle at 00:54:721 - This is...not likely. I'll think about it.

Marathon:

01:34:685 - Consider adding a circle here? The entire map is in 1/6th. A 1/4th note there would be confusing.
01:35:007 - Consider adding a circle here? No, there's actually a pattern going on here, believe it or not.
01:35:114 - Consider adding a circle here? ^
05:44:650 - Why not add a loop of purplecrystals here like in 02:17:221 ? Honestly? I forgot. I didn't add the hitsounds to the latter part of the map either. I needa do that. Thanks.

The entire map is in 1/6th. A 1/4th note there would be confusing.
These sliders are saying other thing though:

01:23:864 (4) -
01:24:293 (5) -
01:34:150 (6) -
02:04:364 (3) -
02:06:078 (2) -
02:07:792 (5) -
02:09:507 (2) -

And i could keep going. They don't have to be circles, they could be like those sliders too.

EDIT:

And about the vibration thing, you can always scale the file to make it smaller in the sb, but anyways, i guess it is okay then.
And remember to delete them from each difficulty. Oh and also remember that if youre going to add the second loop to the marathon, it will have to be inside the difficulty. Just saying this as reminder, or in case you don't know... Lol D:

Why is it that none of the SB is in the osb? Diff specific stuff can be put in the diff.

[Skin]
The spinner meter has a yellow spot in the upper-left corner, I don't think this is intended.
Why is it that the "x" and "%" are skinned, but not the numbers, with the Xi skin, this looks really awkward.

[Episode 1]
01:44:650 (1,2,3,4,5) - These anti-jumps are kinda unexpected, but I was able to pull them off.
01:48:078 (1) - This slider's reverse arrow is pointing in the wrong direction. Can be fixed by just moving the endpoint up one grid.
02:20:650 (5) - ^ Same basic method to fix.
02:51:078 (7) - ^

[Episode 3]
00:47:007 (2) - Reverse arrow pointing wrong direction.
01:01:793 (2) - ^
01:04:793 (2,3) - ^ Except plural.
Do you even see these? It could be that the BSS is messing with you again.

[Episode 5]
I don't really like the spacing of this maps, it jumps around like crazy (the actual jumps and the spacing) and in some areas where there are huge spaces, it doesn't really feel right to me. But this is all entirely subjective.

[Marathon]
That drain rate seems a tad high for a marathon map.

Yeah, the real only problems are with the reverse arrows, so the maps are basically fine. You get a star from me.

Hello ^.^

General
As said in pvt, the name of the marathon's diff can make confusions, I suggest changing it.
Also, as soon as most things in this skin are blue, maybe your section pass could be bue as well, like this, for example:

Episode1

00:22:364 (3) - move it one grid to the right (http://puu.sh/wfp) and than ajust 00:23:221 (4).
01:34:793 (2) - move it one grid to the left and than ajust 01:35:221 (3)

Episode 3

02:12:507 (1) - the end of this spinner sounds a little weird

Bernkastel's Marathon and Episode 5

Perfect imo, couldnt find any problem here.

Star for this amazing map and song, good luck to get it approved/ranked.

Thanks for the suggestion; I'll probably follow it. (But won't use your actual image since I think I can do it better and it needs to be a darker blue anyway.

Episode1

00:22:364 (3) - move it one grid to the right (http://puu.sh/wfp) and than ajust 00:23:221 (4). Done.
01:34:793 (2) - move it one grid to the left and than ajust 01:35:221 (3) Moved 1 instead since it was barely noticeable of an anti-jump.

Episode 3

02:12:507 (1) - the end of this spinner sounds a little weird Silenced the entire spinner since it fits better.

Just did a quick glance + test play

~Episode 1~
00:48:935 (7,8) - feels a bit awkward since they're so close to the previous notes (compared to the spacing from 1-6). Since its the easiest diff i suggest you keep it consistent.
01:44:650 (1,2,3,4,5) - spacing (Technically it's okay, but since its the easiest diff I would suggest you change it.)

~Episode 2~

Feels like a normal - if it is then i suggest you go through spacing. Although I didn't notice this/it didn't bother me when playing so its really up to you.

~Bernkastel's Marathon~
02:15:078 (1) - this slider's unrankable (can't tell what direction its going in)
stopped playing after 3 min XD


Its getting together, Good luck

You should start at the same point as the others.
01:29:650 (1) - Change this with a slider that finishes at 01:30:507, then a triplet at 01:30:721 - 01:30:935

Good job, song is so cool :D

Unless pecified, grid = lv 3

There're two BG image in the osz. delete one of them. Make sure the remaining one is in standard size.

[episode 5]
0:14:650 (5,6) not symmetrical, 1 (lv4) grid left?
0:20:007 (6) left+up 1 grid
SB around 0:27: not smooth @ about 0:27:335, try to fix it or find SB pros
1:00:721 (13,14) left 1 grid
1:45:078 (3) up 1 grid

... Good map but the spacing varies too much? o_o
Like 1:14:435 (1,2,3), 1:22:364 (1,2,3,4,5,6), are in the same combo but their spacing are diffenernt obviously (with no reason)

go and resnap and ask for rechecks :D

You should start at the same point as the others. Nah. I like it this way.
01:29:650 (1) - Change this with a slider that finishes at 01:30:507, then a triplet at 01:30:721 - 01:30:935
04:57:078 - ^. These exceed the difficulty the marathon is based at. Plus, it doesn't feel right.

Good job, song is so cool :D
Thank you.

There're two BG image in the osz. delete one of them. Make sure the remaining one is in standard size. This is intentional. The smaller BG image is used as part of the storyboard.

[episode 5]
0:14:650 (5,6) not symmetrical, 1 (lv4) grid left? It's symmetrical to me...
0:20:007 (6) left+up 1 grid Done.
SB around 0:27: not smooth @ about 0:27:335, try to fix it or find SB prosI'll go bug a pro.
1:00:721 (13,14) left 1 grid Done.
1:45:078 (3) up 1 grid Done.

... Good map but the spacing varies too much? o_o
Like 1:14:435 (1,2,3), 1:22:364 (1,2,3,4,5,6), are in the same combo but their spacing are diffenernt obviously (with no reason) 1:14 was an oversight on my part, 1:22 is intentional.

go and resnap and ask for rechecks :D
Thank you.

It's god damn perfect for Bernkastel. Regal, yet cruel and at the same time has a bored feeling about it. It really gets the feeling of Bern.

i cant read the combos.......thats never a good thing :/, maybe make them flow more to the music, also you really need some more hitsounds

Episode 1 its more a normal ;)

01:46:364 (5,1) - put the new comb on (5) insted so it flows with your pattern


Episode 3

00:42:078 (2,3) - space these abit more to make the flow better

ok this map needs what i call a clean up ;p look at the spacing on parts like these 00:59:864 (5,6,7,8) you will notice that even though they are meant to be the same, the spacing is kinda different between the notes, you need to go through the map and find all these inconsistent parts and fix them up "if" you want the map to look better

00:59:650 (4,5,6,7,8,9) - like here too and on ;p
02:50:007 (2,3) - not keen on this overlap, maybe make the ends of these sliders line up? it will break DS but to me it does make it play better if you then make the rest of the combo suit it too

Episode 5

00:59:221 (3) - new combo to help the player kno to break here for abit
01:02:007 (3,4) - make (4) closer to (3) this jump really dont feel nice and plays better without it
01:26:650 (1) - this slider speed feels waaaay to fast to suit here to me, maybe give it one fo the slower speeds :/
01:46:364 (1) - same here
02:41:435 (5,6) - this jump dont really suit again

Bernkastel's Marathon

02:15:078 (1) - .......yea same as the other ppl said but meh
03:01:578 (4,5) - you need to move (5) closer to (4) to suit the spacing better
06:29:007 (4,5) - same here

nice worth a star, but you could do with some more hitsounds and abit better comboing ;)

Bernkastel's Marathon

02:15:078 (1) - .......yea same as the other ppl said but meh If a BAT says that this needs to be SBed, I'll make some red-truthish image telling you which way to go.

Combo is totally fucked up; I agree. It needs a complete overhaul. The hitsounds are generally fine, the song is quite noisy as-is. Thank you.

Episode 1
Nothing out of the ordinary. Plays out very well.

Episode 3
Nothing out of the ordinary. :)

Episode 5
I would say knock the AR up to 9, due to the high enough SV to give that insane effect. But that's just me.
If not.. OD at 7, AR at 8. Why not just knock up OD to 8 as well?
For that mini 1/6th stream of 4 beats at the end of the song, you could alternate between repeating sliders.
This plays out very sexy though! I have no complaints except what's been mentioned above.

Bernkastel's Marathon
Knock the HP drain a tick, it seems a bit high for a marathon.
There is no set.. "style" in this diff. It feels as though it was live mapped throughout the entire diff., but this is only from my personal experiences of maps. This makes the mapping incredibly hard and annoying to read, tbh. But as you said, I think that was your goal to begin with.
Combos aren't consistent every now and then, too many to mention.
For those mini sliders that repeat ~4 times, why not make them end on the direction of the next beat? It's really heard to notice the difference. As same as above, too many to mention examples.
Also, you don't need to stick to distance snap all the time. Alternate your snapping, and a new combo can be placed a bit farther away, with reason and common sense.
Some nice patterns would be nice, but I think it's a bit too late for that.
05:20:650 (1,2) - A bit nazi on my part, but align it equally from each other on Y axis? 1 is a bit farther to the left compared to 2.
05:24:935 (3,4) - You could flip this horizontally to create a bit more rhythm.
06:14:435 (2) - I'm sure you could be a little more creative..
06:50:881 (1,2) - A bit more nazi, but align on Y axis for both of these?
For a marathon, this isn't too bad though. :)

I am thrilled to see this get ranked. It's pretty good overall!

Modified a bit.

Bernkastel's Marathon
Knock the HP drain a tick, it seems a bit high for a marathon. This is intended; the beat is flowing enough that if you're ever going to miss enough notes to fail anyway, you're screwed regardless. The only issue with this is at the start of the map, where failing one of the slow sliders on accident leads you to fail due to the drain.
There is no set.. "style" in this diff. It feels as though it was live mapped throughout the entire diff., but this is only from my personal experiences of maps. This makes the mapping incredibly hard and annoying to read, tbh. But as you said, I think that was your goal to begin with. Not exactly sure what you mean by "live mapped", but that was the goal. A map that requires more concentration and endurance than sheer clicking power.
Combos aren't consistent every now and then, too many to mention. This is the main issue I want to have a BAT check this out for.
For those mini sliders that repeat ~4 times, why not make them end on the direction of the next beat? It's really heard to notice the difference. As same as above, too many to mention examples. Require clarification.
Also, you don't need to stick to distance snap all the time. Alternate your snapping, and a new combo can be placed a bit farther away, with reason and common sense. Will be considered.

Add Bernkastel to the tags in all difficulties ?
Why are there both "bg.jpg" and "bg.png" in the folder (not even having the same size) ?

Episode 1
The diff felt a bit bland in the beginning due to the constant 1/1 rhythm, but it played better in the end.
00:25:792 (2,1) - The spacing here surprised me because I expected (1) a bit later.
00:27:078 (1,1) - ^
00:30:507 (4,1) - Although I should probably point it out as spacing issue, it does play fine and is easy to read imo. So... your call
01:00:935 (3) - Move it a bit down so that the spacing with (2) matches the one between (1) and (2) ?
01:25:793 (5) - This clap sounds weird here imo
01:29:650 (4) - Make it symmetrical ?
01:48:078 (1) - I personnally don't like such kick sliders in Normal diffs or lower, because I find them confusing to play and sometimes pretty bad. And since this is the easiest diff of the mapset, and it's supposed to be beginner-friendly (at least a bit) I'd suggest you change it ?
02:51:078 (7,8,1) - This pattern sounds a bit off, because the three 1/2 notes come too early, then there's that slider where the song has 1/2 notes.
The whole diff lacked hitsounds imo. Try to get a custom clap ?

Episode 3
I like how you used Finishes at the end of the diff. It sounds great.
However, the beginning lacks hitsounds. Here's a possible hitsound pattern, only add it if you like it. Or feel free to add some and not others, you do what you want. It's kind of basic but it doesn't sound bad.
hitsounds
00:27:721 (2) - clap on the end
00:28:578 (4) - clap on the end
00:29:435 (6) - clap on the end
00:30:293 (8) - clap on both beginning and end
00:31:150 (2) - clap on the end
00:32:007 (4) - clap on the end
00:32:864 (2) - clap on the end
00:33:721 (4) - clap on both beginning and end
00:34:578 (6) - clap on end
00:35:221 (1,2,3,4) - clap on end
and so on until the spinner
00:32:435 (1) - no new combo so that it is consistent with the previous pattern ?
00:34:150 (5) - new combo for the same reason ?

Episode 5
I find the beginning unncessarily jumpy. :( but it plays fine
(and I hate small circles ;_; )
Also the 4 stacks confused me a lot, I expected 3 notes, and when I saw I had missed one I didn't understand at all. Also, expecting 3 notes made the spacing harder to read.
01:10:150 (4,5,6,7,8,9) - Very weird spacing, although it reads and plays fine
01:32:650 (1,2,3) - oh, huh... spacing issue: space them evenly please (ok it reads fine but it looks really bad)
01:34:150 (4,5,6) - same, except this time the spacing makes (6) confusing to play
02:18:507 (3,1) - Very confusing spacing: they're spaced the same way as (2) and (3) and the time gap is not the same

Bernkastel's Marathon
I'm not sure the first red section is allowed at all. Is there an actual timing change there ? I don't think the three first sliders add anything at all to the difficulty anyway, so I would just suggest to delete them and start the difficulty where the actual offset is. :/
yaaaaaaaaay FC first try o/
I like this, it's not tiring even for a marathon, and the difficulty level is pretty well chosen. Good job.

Why are there both "bg.jpg" and "bg.png" in the folder (not even having the same size) ? bg.png is used for a SB vibration. Using the full-sized image caused an issue in a few of my friend's plays where they couldn't see the beats at all...

The diff felt a bit bland in the beginning due to the constant 1/1 rhythm, but it played better in the end. Easys generally don't pass "Bland" anyway.
00:25:792 (2,1) - The spacing here surprised me because I expected (1) a bit later. Moved 2 a bit to better fit the timing.
00:27:078 (1,1) - ^ Intended.

01:25:793 (5) - This clap sounds weird here imo The hell is that doing there? Nixed.

And since this is the easiest diff of the mapset, and it's supposed to be beginner-friendly (at least a bit) I'd suggest you change it ? I'll brainstorm this, but there's very little chance it'll be changed - even though it's a kickback, it's basically a hold slider. And since there's nothing after it, it's an easy one.

Also the 4 stacks confused me a lot, I expected 3 notes, and when I saw I had missed one I didn't understand at all. Also, expecting 3 notes made the spacing harder to read. Intended. The music follows the quad notes to a T, and holds the difficulty standing.
01:10:150 (4,5,6,7,8,9) - Very weird spacing, although it reads and plays fine Intended as an experiment and left there because it worked so well.
01:32:650 (1,2,3) - oh, huh... spacing issue: space them evenly please (ok it reads fine but it looks really bad) Fixed.
01:34:150 (4,5,6) - same, except this time the spacing makes (6) confusing to play Fixed a bit. 1:32 was as well.
02:18:507 (3,1) - Very confusing spacing: they're spaced the same way as (2) and (3) and the time gap is not the same Not much I can do, it adheres to a defined pattern.

Yes, the beginning 13 seconds actually have a separate bpm, and the sliders were originally there to distinguish it from the other difficulties completely. You're probably the first to FC it first try as well.

Thank you.

These are mostly suggestions, all the spacing nazi comments are to make the patterns look better, not gonna point out any other spacing changes unless they're really hard to hit or read.

[Episode 1]
01:32:650 (5) - Center it? That would make look neater because of the blanket slider imo.
01:34:364 (1,2,3) - Down 5 grids so that 3 would be centered on the X axe, and then move (1) and (2) up 1 grid so that they'll be symmetrical.
01:39:507 (5) - Make this symmetrical to 3? Move it where 3 is and horizontal flip just to be sure.
01:39:507 (5) - Rotate this to the left?

[Episode 3]
02:25:792 (1,2,3,4) - This is pretty hard to read :/ you could keep 2 and 3 stacked on 4 and move them away from 1, don't forget to take 5 and 6 along with it.

[Bernkastel's marathon]
01:29:650 (1) - Maybe make this more curved? Not an error or anything.

[Episode 5]
00:45:078 (5) - Stack this on 6 instead to make the stacks even?

Nicely done.

Starred.
