In anticipation of the upcoming Tales of Monkey Island episodic series from Telltale Games, the upcoming Secret of Monkey Island Special Edition remake from LucasArts, and my upcoming "Talk Like A Pirate Day" Beatmap Pack, here is the theme song from the Monkey Island series, as presented in the 1997 classic Curse of Monkey Island.

Thanks to everyone who helped with timing, and special thanks to all who drew pirates for the storyboard! The comboburst image is taken from concept art for Tales of Monkey Island.

Timing feels pretty good, actually. Might be off in spots, but I rather look in to that once this is completed.

Which you should. Complete it. Do it. You know you want to.
awp
Yeah, off in some spots eg 00:09:11 but timing feels pretty good

Stuff mentioned in irc: come up with some cool placements and patterns. At the tempo increase I think the map does a pretty good jump from uninspired to swingin'

Thanks for the feedback. I think I'll be able to do more interesting things with placement when I have video working. Can somebody edit this down to fit the song? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0NRwWFnoX8

Everything up to about 0:50 is fine, but after that it should fade to around 2:10, so that the fire and slash sound effects sync up.

here u go... you won't believe how much trouble it took me to get the mov that FCE spit out converted into an avi...

I'll reupload with BG video and image once I also have custom sounds, so I'll only have to do full resubmit once. Normal mode is done but timing must be investigated thoroughly.
Echo
Up the offset in the second section to 50780-ish

shift everything except first beat forwards (to the right) by 1/4 then shift the following back (left) by 1/4
02:06:27 (1,2,3,4,5,6)
02:09:01 (1,2)

02:29:93 (5,6,7,1,2,3,4)

02:34:04 (2,3,4,5,6,1,2,1)
02:36:78 (1) - this also needs extending by 1/4

also, the following:
02:29:16 (4) - needs to be shortened by 1/4
02:33:10 (1) - needs to be shortened by 1/4
Echo
Sorry, I missed 02:43:67 (1,2,3,1) needs shifting left 1/4

also the 2 sliders you shortened need to be realigned for spacing

aside from that should be good.
Rolled
Alls I got:

02:10:66 (5) - Resnap the tail of that.

I get a few unexpected 100s playing this through, but the timing seems fine so I'm just going to have to say that I suck. However if something is a few miliseconds off it would not surprise me.

Bpm 165.00 Offset 7,670
Bpm 175.00 Offset 51,020

you need to shift all the notes around a bit, but that shouldn't take long.

Thanks for the timing help everybody. Doing a simple simple storyboard for this to complement the video. AWP once again is helping out. Here's a preview.

Sinistro offered to do a harder difficulty for this but I think he forgot.
Sinistro
Uhh...is it just me or are offsets rather off? I found these to work rather well:
7,730
51,090

No other objections, I believe. I'll work on the difficulty, eheheh.

I did some of what you suggested. A lot of it seemed to miss the flow of the map, though.

lol

It is a funny map^^

But I think the sound can be lower ~
And why this map haven't have any special sound ??
Just hit is boring ...
Mashley
Totally awesome and fun. I think the storyboard would benefit from some smoother transitions between slides, and maybe slow down the ending a bit, but that's it.
Starrodkirby86
Hot storyboard~ (I liked my pictures O:)

Gogogo. :3
Derekku
Lookin' pretty awesome. I wish I could have drawn a pirate, but I've been sick in bed :<

*gives a star instead*

Easy
01:25:88 (3) - Pet peeve, hard to tell which end the repeating slider was going to end at I thought it would end next to the slider after
01:29:99 (1) - same here but I this one I guess is fine.

Normal
No issues, actually FC'd it easier than easy for the reasons stated in my easy mod

Hard
02:26:39 (4,5) - add some notes in-between? feels empty

Great map
DeathxShinigami
Starred. Pretty cool..for some reason before playing this I thought this was going to be over mapped. =s

No naziing on this post

Easy:
spacing did not feel easy
I feel 01:25:88 (3) and 01:29:99 (1) - are too hard for easy

Normal:
fine

Hard:
fine

Great SB, skin, and map. Star.
Mogsy
Easy:
Looks and sounds fine.

Normal:
Some of the phrasing was off, and there were some other minor problems.
-00:21:37 (4) - Add a Whistle.
-00:32:82 (5,6) - Reverse the hitsound pattern here.
-01:05:31 (1) - Remove the New Combo mark.
-01:06:51 (3) - New Combo mark goes here.
-01:07:54 (1) - Remove the New Combo mark.
-01:09:25 (4) - New Combo mark goes here.
-01:10:28 (1) - Remove the New Combo mark.
-01:11:65 (3) - New Combo mark goes here.
*-01:13:37 (1) - Remove the New Combo mark.
*-01:14:39 (5) - New Combo mark goes here.
-01:15:08 (7) - Replace Whistle on endpoint with a Finish.
-01:29:99 (1) - Remove the New Combo mark.
-01:30:85 (2) - New Combo mark goes here.
-01:32:22 (1) - Remove the New Combo mark.
-01:33:59 (4) - Add a Finish.
-01:33:94 (5,6) - These feel unnecessary, since you're starting a new phrase without coming close to finishing it. Remove them and reinput the break.
-02:15:08 (6) - New Combo mark goes here.
-02:16:11 (1) - Remove the New Combo mark.
-02:17:48 (3) - Remove the Whistle, add a Finish.
-02:17:82 (4,5) - Remove these, reinput break (same reason as 01:33:94).

Hard:
-01:05:31 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) - Phrases like this should follow the pattern for New Combos previously established in Normal, because of A) consistency and B) the fact that you started new combos in the middle of a musical phrase and it just seems so awkward to me.
-01:33:59 (5,6) - I'd just have one beat with a Finish on 01:33:59. Delete, reinput, reinput the break.
-02:17:48 (5) - Replace Whistle with Finish.
-02:17:82 (6,7) - Delete, reinput break.

I like the map, though, don't get me wrong. :3

Made a bunch of tweaks. The map should be at least more consistent with itself now, if not quite consistent with Mogs's phrasing.

(I'm keepin my "doot doot doooo"s intact though :P )
Mogsy
It's fine, it's a phrasing nightmare.

Bubbled, since everything checks out.

[Easy]
Has unsnapped notes too.
00:41:18 (1,2) - Space a bit farther apart.
01:56:74 (4,5) - ^
02:50:31() - Easy has the spinner ending on a blue tick too. Intentional?
RemmyX25
Yay, rebubbled.

Although the timing seems just a liiitttllleee off, but it might just be my UAO being off.
Zerostarry
I looked through this thoroughly.

This is a fantastic map.
