If it didn't work by the matter of calling favours, and thus get DQ as well as removal of BNs, both Apple and the other no-name BN who originally qualified this would not have held their positions (which they did). And regardless of the changes Monstrata DID make, he refused and still to this day refuses to address and fix the most glaring errors (most regarding improper flow and poor structure). I don't care if you pull the "experience" card on Monstrata's behalf, because guess what? Any moron with any knowledge of music theory can tell the map ignores damn near all the structure of the song that is actually consistent.TheOnlyLeon wrote:
.....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.[ Eon Fox ] wrote:
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...
And frankly, it doesn't matter that the map has been working towards rank for a year, because there are people who have only recently gotten maps ranked that had several years of effort put into them, as well as many maps that tried for years and either have been DQ'd over incredibly minor matters until the mapper gave up trying and maps that had to settle for Loved because BNs and QATs refused to let them through qualification (regardless of attempts to rank).
Look, I've done this song and dance with two maps by now. I really shouldn't have to personally contact the composers of a song or plaster screenshots of sheet music or the MIDI notation just for people to use their common sense. I'm not even remotely sure how I have extensive experience with music theory and composition (yes, even for this kind of metal), information direct from files containing the exact structure of a songs beat and rhythm (or even sheet music), and have no problem asking the actual musicians themselves for confirmation, and STILL people like you think I'm somehow some complete idiot who has no knowledge or experience to back me up.Kisses wrote:
Eon Fox you should really stop talking about shit you know nothing about
Art may be subjective, but music structure is completely objective. And the music structure here says the art is wrong.
