I will make a spoilertag for other difficulties.

Sadly, I only have 25 edits per thread and I already used half of them, so I'm just going to sleep now to add a shitload of maps tomorrow all in one edit, hopefully.

Thanks everyone for making the list a bit less incomplete ^_^

Just to clarify a few things about Loved status:

  1. To qualify for Loved, maps must still be well-timed and at least reasonably playable. A good example of something that isn't Loved material is the Mark Mulholland titanic recorder map, since most of it is deliberately out of time and generally makes you want to rip your hands off.
  2. Loved maps can also not autofail. 2B maps are notorious for this due to a long-standing client bug, so they're unfortunately out of the question until the bug is fixed. Same deal with stuff like the Graces of Heaven non-debug difficulty.
  3. You can suggest individual difficulties within a set.
Do remember that we'll be opening up community voting for the next round of Loved maps very soon, and lots of the maps mentioned in this thread are very likely to appear in it.

I'm removing tewi and mulholland. Good that there is an option to only love an individual difficulty, so graces of heaven can stay up!


I hope the list is at least somewhat useful to the staff. I'll edit in some more things today, particularly hard maps where people might be interested to see how the best of the best do on them.

Thanks for clarifying these things! (:

V^3 has already been passed nomod.

I assume he meant maps like centipede, that can be passed by auto but are obviously impossible to beat, even with HT. Those are out.


Anyways, HUGE update of the list. I added about 100 maps, particularly hard ones, arles, other gamemodes, lots of stuff that has been suggested in the thread, mazzerin, Rabbit's Jumping and it goes on.

The list should be pretty good now, although I'm probably still missing a shitload of hard maps around 100 favourites. If you got more, PM me!

Gist of list is: quality maps that never made it to rank for one reason or another. Some of the maps under hard don't have many favs simply because of the raw skill required to play those maps.
Another reason for low favourites one some is simply empty tags, making actually finding the songs hard.

Solid maps
DJ Sharpnel - Marunouchi survivor by ampzz
https://osu.ppy.sh/b/294015
* The galvenize's difficulty is underrated. Very solid older style map. its also harder than SR shows
** 7 favs

Demetori - U.N. Owen wa Kanojo nanoka? by Louis Cyphre
https://osu.ppy.sh/b/844718
* Unsure if going for rank or not. Similar to 2011/2012 "metal" touhou maps in style
** 70 favs

DJ'TEKINA - Internet bitch P*Light Remix by dannarz
https://osu.ppy.sh/b/502183
* The unranked (and subjectively speaking, better) map of the song

Memes
BiBi x DragonForce - Through the Cutie and Panther (Metal Mix) by Birkis

** 8 favs

Manuel - Gas Gas Gas by LefafeI

* Initial D. Although new map, its in older style
** 23 favs

Joe C. - Kyle's Mom's a Big Fat B**ch by Naitoshi
https://osu.ppy.sh/b/539793

Reading challenges

The real question is, why is it not ranked/approved? It was qualified one time :(

I've never seen that one before and it doesn't seem to be very popular.. whats the story of this map?

thank you so much! This is really really good, I think a lot of these were still missing. I've also noticed that I accidentally wrote that the Foreground Eclipse is by CRN, when it's actually from Saten. I'll change that with the next edit too.

I have no idea if the staff plans to introduce the loved-feature for other gamemodes too, but I'll put them on anyway.

Amazing sliders during the Neuro Cloud opening part and tbh just great sliders overall. Sick Camellia map by Mazzerin.

https://osu.ppy.sh/b/894744

Extremely well-made streams on the highest difficulty, overall great map.

A list of taiko maps that could end up in your list.

If you want to add this list go ahead, however it's better for you that you avoid adding maps one by one - updates will be frequent. Unless you have BALLS.
marshallracer
Idk, putting Groundhog in misc. just because it has a TAG diff doesn't feel right .. it definitely got very much attention but I can see that quite a few people wouldn't even know this map nowadays

Interesting list so far though, I like it

Can Erasus be loved??
https://osu.ppy.sh/s/107979
Claire Farron
This song is loved by lots of people.
How come it's not in the LOVED group yet? ;-;

Nero vs After School - Sound In Motion vs AH (Fauxami Mashup) by galvanize
https://osu.ppy.sh/b/559811
Favourited 509 times in total
Nicely mapped, various difficulties.


Also this:
Helblinde - Grief & Malice
https://osu.ppy.sh/b/1098037
Not really favourited since it's unknown but it's nicely mapped imo.
Mismagius
i'm gonna repeat myself here but it would be cool if people started suggesting more easier maps, all I see is 6*+ maps lol

there are plenty of gimmick maps that could never be ranked and this is their time to shine, but what most people seem to want is arles/raikozen maps
Endaris
That being said, BD, many of the maps that got loved-status aren't really too gimmicky.
I'd have definitely expected to see tewi 2B and Graces of Heaven on the first batch, given how these are definitely unique and uh... loved?!

Anyway, I just hope that we won't see a new owntrolf-meme with this one...
Mismagius
I think Eph explained that 2b maps aren't ready yet due to the client fucking up when they're played (not being able to finish the map), which is why the first batch mostly had hard maps, but they will be added in the near future
Yuzeyun
I have to agree with BD: Gimmicky maps are quickly forgotten after they get some spotlight and this status is basically their only way to shine - contrary to hard maps who are still potentially rankable.

@Endaris: Graces of Heaven has 2B parts as well, so I don't think it should be expected as soon as proper 2B maps, sadly.
