Thanks Mr. Monstrata for that :>

how did this reach 73 pages..

defaults for a lot of things suck, for example, nobody uses default hitsounding, or the default osu skin. similarly, using the default white discord is similarly heretical and deserves the utmost punishment. i suggest a strike for hobbes2; maybe irre can oblige.
Mismagius
you take that back, default osu! hitsounds are pretty good (except normal soundset)

HEY, I love the normal whistle ;c

I do 99% of the time, both default hitsounds and skin 👀 I just use custom hitsounds when they're map specific 👀

Hi, there are some serious issues that need to be addressed before this moves on to rank

  1. 04:37:763 (1) - This is clearly a U and not an O. I'm pretty sure you spell stop with an O so please change that to an O shape regardless of being able to tell between slider head and tail. Representing the song is more important than being able to read it.
  2. 04:28:662 (6) - I fear this stream might be too hard for people to play, please nerf by using sliders.
  3. 03:53:600 (1) - this section needs to use more drum kicks. You only use a kick when guitar changes chord, but a drum never changes pitch! please rectify this by adding more kicks.

02:21:427 (4,5,1) - timing is off in this section, I suggest you recheck that.

congratulations on getting #1 in your country ohori :^)

No, listen to the drum :P. Also what you proposed is unrankable anyways since the slider becomes improperly snapped (and the sliderend would be unsnapped).
SilverCatalyst
my bad, I thought you were mapping vocals in that section :P
but ya i just snapped the sliderhead, didn't mess with properly snapping the end

Hey, I ain't gonna flame the map if the current version of the .mp3 is rankable, but from my point of view it isn't. If it is, tell me why, because in two places it is very much so stretched.

I found this information out from a video of Will Stetson's, which happens to be taken down so I'll need some clarification of whether or not the information has reached here or not.

Here: 00:11:565 (1,1) -
According to his video, this part of the song is double the length of the original version.
And it is.
Link to timepoint on normal A-L-I-E-N for comparison sakes.

The other point that was noted to be stretched was at here: 01:02:466 (1) -
This section, from Will Stetson's pov, was considerably slower than the video's.
And, again, it is.
Link to timepoint on normal A-L-I-E-N for comparison sakes, again.

Look, to tell you the truth, I don't know if this stops rankability or not, so if it does please explain to me why for some god damn reason this is ranked, because if it shouldn't be because of the song then I'm going to believe that Monstrata can literally rank any song in this game. If it is rankable, I need some insight because I may or may not have done enough research on this.

because making a full spread (incl a diff <2.00*) is unreasonable for this type of song

There's nothing in the current ranking criteria which states that the mp3 doesn't have to be extended. It is probably going to be in the future though, as the proposal on t/602728 has a rule against that. You can discuss it there if you'd like to.

Please discuss mp3 editing in the ranking criteria forums. It is not unrankable currently, and I've used it in a few ranked maps anyways. Some big ones are Santa-San

Hardly. Making a sub 2* diff (as well as a full spread) would be a triviality for pretty much anyone. How much more so, then, for someone of Monstrata's prestige! The song has a lot of potential simplification opportunities, most especially in the beginning and the last half. Considering the massive spreads Monstrata has experience in making, doing such for a primarily 1/2-1/4 timing structure would be very easy for him.

Now, I would prove this, but I can assure you that it would make no difference, as there is no swaying you or the other no-name BN who bubbled this to consider that this incredibly poor attempt at mapping this song is anything but perfectly acceptable in your eyes. Even if you did reconsider, Monstrata would just do a few favours for another pair of BNs and get it ranked anyway.

It's somewhat depressing to know that qualification doesn't have the ability to stop people truly determined to speed rushjob maps through the process via calling in favours from their friends. Must be kinda like how New Yorkers felt about Boss Tweed in the early 20th century...

.....This map has been trying to get ranked for over a year now, and I can visibly see a lot of changes Monstrata made since the original version in order to get it ranked. Besides if it could work just by doing favours for other BNs it'd just get DQ'd and the BN's would be removed, I've seen that happen before so I don't see how it's different here.
