EDIT: Had to leave halfway through; will finish asap!

1. I actually recommend to lower the OD by 1 because the map is extremely long. Don't think anyone will SS this outright anyway.
2. Recommending to lower the HPdrain by 1 more notch, to 4, because of the In the Middle of the Night, which is the hardest song and it's difficulty is a couple of times greater than any other map in the set. A marathon of this magnitude should be experienced by less skilled people too, so they just don't get blocked on that song.
3. You should consider to match the combo colors of the individual songs/maps. The colors themselves are fine, but the order is not. This could be a lot of work, so up to you.

1. 02:23:251 - I really feel that you should have a note here, cause currently it sounds a bit meh if you compare to the awesome impact in the music. Perhaps add a circle? You can place it on top of 02:23:817 (2) to preserve symmetry. You can also use a swap to normal hitsounds and place a finish on it to bring more impact. This suggestion is mainly because you mapped 02:41:365 (7) which is a similar thing and you have it mapped.
2. 02:53:110 (1,2,3,4) - This is quite far, and because of a skin it sort of blends with the background. It would be no problem if it felt intuitive, but because they land on the red tick, people will click these either too early or too late. Since they are stacked, consider using a short kick slider instead, that would alleviate the confusion.
3. 04:10:516 (4,5,6) - This is bad because the drum in the song is 1/3. Also people who play with a different skin set of hitsounds (like me, I use quite low volume sounds for precision) will notice this quite much and be confused.

1. Just a thought: this is by far the hardest map in the marathon, and it's 2nd in order (if you don't count the intro song). Sort of a bad thing for a marathon, but I guess it can't be helped. Onward with the mod.
2. 05:52:555 (4) - Clap? Sounds inconsistent without it, because you used it at 05:47:605 (3) end.
3. 05:54:955 (1,2,3,4,5) - Should try claps on everything here. The drum is really important and this would make the buildup much stronger and epic.
4. 06:09:505 (1) - Consider lowering this a little, it's upper end goes way off the HP bar and looks bad.
5. 06:48:955 (5) - Why soft hitsound here? Drum is still present and sounds a bit wrong if you ask me.
6. 06:53:905 (2) - Totally needs a finish if you ask me.
7. 09:33:205 (2) - If you ctrl+r this, it flows better if you ask me, and you don't lose on symmetry at all.
8. 09:40:705 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17) - The stream isn't properly symmetrical. Just saying, fix it if you want, you can see that the left side is off slightly.
9. 09:49:255 (7,8) - This is not properly stacked. This needs to get fixed because they look incredibly confusing when using the default skin (skin toggle).
10. 09:51:805 (1) - The path of the slider is actually going offscreen. You really need to change this somehow. Hardrock it and you will see that a good chunk of the slider track is offscreen, compared to nomod where nearly the whole slidertrack is behind the HPBar which is bad.
11. Gameplay comment: 10:25:255 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10) - This is the hardest part in the marathon, by far. This is incredibly hard to hit. I would suggest to actually use some sliders here but it is up to you how you want this. I like how this looks, but it's really hard to play.

1. 12:00:236 (3) - Clap at the end too? Sounds really good as the song builds up here.
2. 12:02:486 (2) - I don't know if I messed this up by mistake but this doesn't look centered to me currently. Ignore this if it does to you.
3. 12:04:736 - Add a note? Really important part in the music if you ask me. You could add a circle and stack it under the slider end and add a finish. Don't worry about the jump that would create for the next notes, it actually fits and is fun to play.
4. 13:40:736 - Same thing as the above. You could place it just above 13:40:236 (7), or even on top of it.
5. 14:24:736 - ^

1. 20:40:017 (6,7,1) - Not a fan of super compression. When your skin is turned off it looks silly and bad. Don't really see the need for it either, just stack them imo.
2. 21:31:230 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - I find this horribly unfitting. Also the first circle is off so it looks weird. If you remove circles 2 and 6 it follows the drums nicely and is more intuitive.
3. 21:56:230 (2) - If possible you should do something about the position where it ends. The whole end circle is like 90% off the grid. Shouldn't be more than 50% if you ask me.
4. 22:23:048 (1,2) - How nazi of me. But these are totally not symmetrical between each other and it's really visible. Should just fix the positions so they keep symmetry.
5. 22:30:169 (3) - ctrl+r? Would be more symmetrical and it also plays fine, if not better, atleast in my opinion.
6. 23:25:775 (3,4) - This kind of spacing is a problem. It's very difficult to read because on a pattern like this you would expect a 1/3 spacing, not 2/3. I actually tripped here because the nature of the pattern suggests 1/3 (imo). Since you cleverly (but too subtle) positioned the sliders in the combo, so they all start from one side, you should consider a new combo on 4 to atleast create some sort of attention to it.
7. 24:07:896 (4) - Not centered. Oops.
8. 24:30:320 (5) - A whistle feels a bit weak, try finish instead?

1. 26:29:938 (8) - I wonder why is this slowed down when other similar ones aren't. Looks very inconsistent. Talking about 26:35:782 (9) when I said other similar ones.
2. 26:40:653 - Should be a note here with a finish. It's a real shame that you didn't map this moment.
3. 28:21:951 (1,2,3,4) - This follows the music, yeah, but I don't think it's readable just like that. This is the first 1/4 stream thats longer than 3 notes (which most were stacked) and you used lots of 1/3 before. A very bad idea, should change this somehow, maybe convert them into a circle+slider or something, not sure.

1. 31:05:807 (7) - Add a clap too? Sounds better.

1. 34:05:833 - Raise the volume here please, it's really too quiet.
2. 36:24:476 (7) - I know that this follows the vocal but it's kinda weird cause it messes up the rhythm. Well at the moment just pointing this out, because I really have no idea how to fix this without ruining your pattern, but I would probably do something like this on the timeline, because that doesn't break the rhythm. Maybe try using that timeline as a base and create another pattern? You have lots of space after this anyway.
3. 37:25:119 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13) - Spacing here is identical to 1/3 streams you used just before. Lower the spacing for the stream please, just a little bit. You won't have to break your pattern, it will just create a smaller arc which you compensate by moving the first (and the last) note closer to the center. As they are now, they could be mistaken for 1/3 which makes them hard to read.

1. 39:50:268 (6,7,8) - Not centered properly. Fix it if you wish.
2. 39:53:179 - Weird spot to end the kiai on. Try 39:51:388 (or a tick after if you want a new fountain here). Check 41:09:970, it's the same thing and you used it differently. You even used it differently on 42:32:582, which makes 3 different usages for the same thing.
3. 40:30:791 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7) - The spacing in this combo is a bit iffy. You might want to fix that so it doesn't look shabby.
4. 40:53:402 (5) - Not sure if intentional but this looks off, why not form a square?
5. 42:28:999 (1,2,3,4) - Spacing. This wouldn't bother me too much if it was done in the completely opposite way, i.e. having circles on a smaller spacing and then the slider on the bigger, because a jump actually fits because of the vocals. Antijump totally doesn't fit.

1. 43:13:612 (4,5,6,7) - I think the note 6 should not be where it is now. You should move it to 43:13:724 so it follows the music better (the drumline).
2. 47:14:956 (5,6,7) - No idea why this is super compressed when it's symmetrical twin (47:15:851 (9,10,11)) is not. Instead of supercompression, just stack them please.
3. 47:57:045 (1,2,3,4,5) - Eh, this spacing. Rather stack them or think of something else maybe. 4 and 5 can be very confusing to some people. Goes for all such patterns that happen here. For variety, you could have the triple stack in the middle and then a note at each side, would be much more readable and would still bring variety.

1. 49:11:405 (8) - Not symmetrical and spacing is off by 0.1~. Should probably fix since I guess it's intention was to be symmetrical.
2. 52:55:479 (6) - The border (the lower part) of the slider is offscreen slightly. Needs some repositioning.
3. 52:56:466 (1,2,3,4) - This is difficult to read. Maybe use 2 repeaters and a circle? A circle ending in the middle while being surrounded by those repeaters on each side is also symmetrical, but it's much easier to read and a circle ending feels more epic to me.

-18ms (39083) Offset feels fine at the beginning, but then I start hitting -5, -10, -15... so it seems like the BPM is actually wrong. Here's what I get:

fine (648736) Yeah, I guess this is fine. I fluctuated between -5 and +5, so there's no need to change it.

Beginning: 70.04 BPM is definitely incorrect; 933535 offset is also incorrect. I tried 70.00, but that seemed to be a bit too slow... 70.015 BPM with 933525 offset seemed to approximate things nicely (tested with like 3 different bpms and even multiple sections to make sure).
140 BPM section: +10 (1022649)

Slowdown:
135 BPM; 1137505

This should be 1/3 despite what derekku says. This is one of those 1/3 songs that could alternatively be mapped with a faster bpm (132*3/2=198), 3/4 time signature, and 0.75x SV. That's why I said that it's "not 1/3", but I hadn't looked into the song enough and was just skimming through before unapproving. However, there's no need to change the timing like this, so no worries!

my god, please don't compound bpms like that.. no music will ever be precisely 70.025 bpm or whatever, just get the closest round BPM possible and time out each specific offset drift if there are any

as far as the bpm slowing at the end goes, instate a new timing section for each beat mapped when you become unsure of the BPM. this one is tricky since it isn't a "controlled" fade so to speak (ie non-linear). i can't see any other way of fixing this otherwise.

Some BPMs *aren't* perfect numbers, though. It makes no sense to use a round value if you have to add extra uninherited sections to fix the offset from being completely off during a section.

Derekku wrote:

I disagree with this as well. Adding a new uninherited section per beat is very random and unpredictable. It makes more sense to approximate it as much as possible which is what I did in my timing as opposed to the original (which *did* use new red lines per beat).

We *never* apply online offsets per-difficulty, and it's not even possible (unless peppy can do it). Either way, like I said in my mod post, the timing should be the same in all difficulties. Also, scores have already been deleted because timing isn't the only issue in this mapset.

some, yes. i sincerely doubt a professionally mastered song such as this has a bpm of 70.04. the BPM for this song -is- 70, there should be no doubt about that.

[General]
*First of all, since uninherited sections and kiai both affect the main menu, they should be consistent across all difficulties. Actually, extra ones to affect volume/SV/etc. won't hurt anything, so you could really just have ONE set of lines and have them in EVERY difficulty. Would makes things easier AND more consistent! Don't forget to resnap/move back green lines after timing changes (since if they're after notes they won't be correct) God, fixed.
*Also, please correctly capitalize each difficulty's name according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Unforg ... ck_listing for proper grammar! Titles in here are capitalized wrong, I have the original booklet with the right capitalization.
*You could also fix the incorrect capitalization in the storyboard text! See above
*I'm not sure why there are 4 duplicate Armin files in the SB folder, but I'll check again once I nazi the SB on my full mod~The reason is fair, since this is a +50 minutes long marathon and I didn't want to keep a SB object active for above 5/10 minutes where it wasn't needed (for example just fading at 0 for 20 minutes). It's just to preserve a fair SB load value and to help things to not get bugged. Makin' 4 files (with different Fade, Scale, and move values too) helped to make things A LOT easier.
*Just make the preview point the same on every difficulty. Previews only change if you leave the Editor. I guess this isn't a bug (since mapsets are expected to use the same preview point one each diff), so yeah. I guess you just need to pick one good song and use that preview everywhere. :/ Honestly, I prefer this way. You can listen "a stairway to the skies" preview which I love when you select the map and you can listen the other previews also when you go back to the menu. It's not an issue I guess.

[Shot in the Dark]
*In addition to the timing from my last post (which also hasn't been changed yet), you can move the first uninherited section back two measures (34572) since that's where the music starts. Otherwise, the timing from the last song is used which isn't correct. (Done)
01:37:111 - I really don't understand why kiai starts here. Sure it's a build up to the chorus, but I feel like it makes the kiai at 01:37:960 much less powerful (plus two fountains in a row is a bit too much). I really suggest removing this first fountain. I feel it starts here, sorry. Hoping it isn't a big issue.
02:53:101 - same as above same as above.
03:35:686 (2) - I think you're using the wrong sampleset here on the uninherited section. Right, fixed.
04:09:648 (3,4,5) - inconsistent spacing; (4,5) currently looks like it's 1/4 or 1/6 apart when it's really 1/2 nghhhh fixed
04:11:912 - could possibly remove this kiai section (since there's already many choruses). I feel that a powerful kiai should start here, so no.
04:30:025 - I'm surprised that you didn't add a kiai section here. o-o well ironically it was because I didn't want to add so muck kiai and ironically I felt I could avoid here since there's a spinner that makes its great effect. Btw added.
05:24:082 (1) - perhaps make the end of this quieterHm, nah.

[In the Middle of the Night]
08:20:293 - I don't think that this extra kiai fountain is necessary; the other choruses don't have it in the middle...I felt to add it here because it's the second part of the second chorus, and in my opinion it gives a sprint to complete the hardest part of the marathon
09:40:693 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17) - A 17-note 200-bpm 1/4 stream? This a much more difficult than most other parts of the entire marathon... I know, but I still want to keep it. Seeing some players this is the hardest part of the marathon: 10:23:293 (8,9,10,1,2,3,4,5,6,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,1,2,3,4,5) - . If they cannot hit that stream then the majority of them won't have any change on this pattern
09:42:043 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - this is also a bit too difficult (it's too spread out) After the stream this should be quite funny to play, I don't want to change it..
09:48:043 (4,5,6) - incorrect spacing which makes this section very confusing and disjoint from the other mappers For my test-players that played it they didn't found any problem by playing this pattern. This could be a little unexpected for you, but it is still readable.
10:05:893 - Expected the last kiai section to end here. Fixed
10:24:493 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) - Not as bad as the 17-note stream, but this one is more spread out and might even be more difficult. How about making these notes closer to each other? No, really. No. That's why that stream has THAT spacing.

[Faster]
*I really wish that the intro of this was mapped. It just feels so incomplete without it. ): Uhm, after the hardest song a little break it' welcome, this is why I didn't map it. But it's a great intro indeed.
12:00:736 - unnecessary kiai This flows well with the slider's shape at the chours. I REALLY like it.
12:12:236 (1,2) - can't tell which is the slider and which is the note; the sliderticks will really screw up some players. The easiest solution is to change (2) into the new combo. This can be easily readable, despite the hitcircle's position: http://puu.sh/QnT1 seriously, players that tested it just didn't find any problems with it. A new combo will just ruin the pattern.
12:24:736 - kiai should end here, not a tick later Okay
13:44:736 - unn. kiai same reasons of "in the middle of the night". It gives a consistent sprint to the map that I like
14:43:986 (6,7,8,9,10,11,12) - I really suggest spacing these closer This is voluntary, but I made them a bit closer.
14:44:861 (1) - this didn't fit imo; if you had mapped the outro, then sure; but I think that ending with the previous stream would be better.Honestly I don't agree with you, it's better in this way for me.

[Fire and Ice]
*Just like in "Shot in the Dark", move the first uninherited section back to where the music starts. In this case, 6 measures (912957). Alright, fixed
16:33:083 (1,3) - difficult to see which is the note and which is the slider. How about making 16:31:798 (6) a new combo along with 16:33:512 (3) like this: http://puu.sh/QiYj hm.. as I wrote for "Faster", it is still readable and it would be a pity to change the pattern when actually the majority of the players can read it.
*I actually expected some kiai in this song O: Perhaps add a section or two? Hmm I don't really like kiai in slow songs

20:40:009 (6,7,1) - didn't expect these 1/6 notes, and them being in the corner makes them a bit hard to see. I suggest replacing them with a 1/6 slider. Hmm the artificial stack should already gives a warn for this little triplette
22:50:009 (2,3,4) - I'd spread these out more; they looked like 1/6 notes compared to 1/3 ones like 22:51:222 (6,7,8,9,10,11,12). the rhythm in here should be intuitive since there's already a little sample of it before: 22:46:373 (1,2,3) - .
23:23:040 (1,2,3,7,8,9) - expected these 1/6 notes spaced closer together (the notes in each stream, that is) I present to you the same reason as above, there' s already a little preview of the rhythm that led players to hit the triplette as 1/6 (23:21:222 (1,2,3,4,5) - )
23:50:313 - kiai should start here (at the chorus), not measures before (at the buildup to the chorus). Oh gawd. No PLEASE.
24:04:858 - could add another fountain here since this last chorus is much more powerful than the previous ones hmm okay
24:30:312 (5) - I'd make this its own new combo to make it easier to read. The overlapping notes make it kinda hard to see otherwise. See "faster" 's issue. My answer is kinda similar
24:32:282 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - maybe move these down and right a little bit... otherwise the stacking nearly makes them overlap the previous slider sure thing
24:33:949 - kiai ending here fits better imo sure thing
24:34:100 (1) - perhaps make the ending quieter or do a decrescendo feels weird for me

[Where is the Edge]
*Move the timing section back two measures (1491562)
26:03:250 - unn. kiai fountain
27:05:198 (6) - stacking this with subsequent 1/4 notes is pretty confusing... please change the new combo so it's like this: 27:17:666 (5,1,2,3)
27:11:821 - unn. kiai fountain
27:24:289 - kiai should end here to be consistent with the first chorus
28:10:263 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - yeah this really doesn't flow well and is extremely unexpected; i suggest making them into 1/3 sliders
28:11:042 - expected kiai to start here
28:17:081 (3) - should be a new combo like the above
28:21:951 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3) - wowwwww this sounds horribly awkward going from random 1/4 to random 1/3. I'm not even sure what to suggest in its place but this definitely needs to be changed.
28:32:958 (1) - shorten by 1/4

[Sinéad]
*Oh my god the purple in this map looks AMAZING. It would be so powerful if you actually DID do colorhax in the marathon... it'd just take FOREVER and isn't really worth it hahaha..ha.. ):
*I expected a spinner for a couple measures in the outro, but otherwise this map is fine!

33:31:968 (3,5) - a bit ambiguous between which is the note and which is the slider you know what I think of this.
33:37:111 (2,4) - ^^
33:49:968 (3,5) - ^^
34:33:682 (2,3) - ^^
35:53:825 - kiai should end here, not on a random blue tick Right
36:24:468 (7) - extend 1/4; where you have it now ends on "wicKed", but the white tick would be "wickeD" like it should be.After a quick test I think you're right. Fixed
*The section after the break is a bit confusing... switching between 1/3 and 1/4 streams? It's really not obvious which is which :/ I just had to follow the rhythm.
37:49:539 - expected kiai to end here; or perhaps do a new fountain? Fixed
37:54:254 (2,3) - a bit ambiguous between which is the note and which is the slider You know.

[Murder]
39:54:962 - expected the kiai to end on a downbeat (like this) [you can manually move the break too for a nice effect: http://puu.sh/Qk94] Cool
41:13:768 - ^ [the break looks like it's been manually moved but it's 1/4 off: http://puu.sh/Qk9q]Fixed
41:28:096 - this kiai fountain feels unnecessary Hmmm
41:42:424 - ^
42:36:156 - end kiai on the downbeat here, not on a random blue tickFixed

[A Demon's Fate]
44:03:985 - expected the kiai to start here, not halfway through the chorus ): Added
44:14:508 (1) - not sure why this is a new combo by itselfFixed
44:32:642 - end kiai hereDone
44:46:971 - expected a note here and on the previous red tickhmm I don't feel to add other notes here. Also, it's cool the pre-break time too.
47:35:329 - kiai should end here, not on a blue tick Fixed
47:49:657 - ^ Fixed
47:57:493 (4,5) - even though the pattern is obvious from the previous measures, these are hard to distinguish from 1/4 notes and are just asking for a combobreak ):Believe me this is an easier version of a previous pattern that asked for a sure combobreak. I'll leave as it is now, since I'm kinda sad too.
47:58:389 (4,5) - ^

[Stairway to the Skies]
*Where's the kiai in the choruses? D: I don't want to put them for slow songss ;w; just at the end where it was REALLY needed
51:22:511 (2) - please raise the volume so that the ticks are audible; 5% is too low for something like thisraised up to 10%; the main reason why I keep a low volume is because the slidertick is audible and it gives a BAD effect.
52:35:844 (5,6) - can't tell which is the slider and which is the note This time it's REALLY readable.
52:38:807 (5,6) - ^
52:50:659 (5,6) - ^
52:57:325 (4) - where's the finish?Damn I forgot to add hitsounds to this part. Thanks for noticing it

09:40:693 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17) - A 17-note 200-bpm 1/4 stream? This a much more difficult than most other parts of the entire marathon... I know, but I still want to keep it.

And 90+% players will have to use no fail for pass ...

Why all for approval mapper have to put impossible things in there maps *.*

*Move the timing section back two measures (1491562) Alright.
26:03:250 - unn. kiai fountain Okay, I removed it.
27:05:198 (6) - stacking this with subsequent 1/4 notes is pretty confusing... please change the new combo so it's like this: 27:17:666 (5,1,2,3) Okay.
27:11:821 - unn. kiai fountain Okay.
27:24:289 - kiai should end here to be consistent with the first chorus Alright.
28:10:263 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - yeah this really doesn't flow well and is extremely unexpected; i suggest making them into 1/3 sliders I did try out what you've suggested, but I wasn't satisfied. I'll just bring the spacing on those notes closer then.
28:11:042 - expected kiai to start here Yes, you are right. I don't know why this was removed previously but I adding it back in.
28:17:081 (3) - should be a new combo like the above I'll just add a new combo on this note which is on 28:16:886.
28:21:951 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3) - wowwwww this sounds horribly awkward going from random 1/4 to random 1/3. I'm not even sure what to suggest in its place but this definitely needs to be changed. This mapping pattern does not sound random; it follows the song. You can remove the objects to hear them in fact. So, I'll leave this as it is.
28:32:958 (1) - shorten by 1/4 Alright.
